Customer Reviews

Love Plan Toys, but not this banjo
This banjo is very cute, but it really doesn't make any music. The strings make a dull thump noise, but that's about it. My 1 and 2 year olds don't play with it at all. I was disappointed because we love our other Plan Toys.

Disappointed
I ordered this for my son's birthday. He LOVES all stringed instruments and his grandpa plays a banjo. I really like the practices of Plan Toys and thought this was a really adorable, durable looking instrument. When it finally arrived (the shipping was delayed) I was suprised at how small the box was, expecting it to be bigger (its actually pretty tiny). I took it out of the box and it just looked dirty. The glue used to attach the membrane has seeped through leaving a nasty dark stain on what was supposed to be a bright pretty red face. But the biggest disappointment of all was that I had bought it almost exclusively on the merits of the "four tune-able strings". Now, maybe I'm crazy, but i just assumed that this meant that the banjo could be tuned to play actual notes... or a least something that sounds like a note... but all this does is thud. And a dinky little thud at that. No tuning. Nothing. Not quite sure what they meant. You can't even tighten the strings, they stay as they come. I was really sad. I returned it.

cute toy
I had other toys by "Plan toys" and I really like them, but I was disappointed with the banjo, I was hoping for a better sound, something closer to a real instrument..I guess it's just a toy, cute and well done but just a toy.
