This Cymbal is Awesome. I bought this 14" cymbal Back in June of 2007. It has lasted me this long. Im a Pretty hard hitter. I use to use it as my main Crash but got a AXXplosion crash. it has a few tiny marks on it. but Still kicks... Overall its a good cymbal for first time drummers. If you are starting out i suggest this cymbal then move up.

I got a slightly used 14 inch off of Craig's list like two and a half years ago. It sounded delicious, very bright and cutting, but not annoyingly so. A few months ago, it cracked. Now, after continuous hard use, it has been rendered dead and useless. Don't get me wrong, i love the cymbal. It lasted me 2 years. That's a long time for 55 bucks. Buy this cymbal.

This cymbal is ok for what i use it for (Metal) I like zildjian cymbals better but i also like sabians. My first one cracked after 2 months and i ordered anohter one. That one lasted for about 2 years.

Good crisp sound but cracks easily

I got the 16 inch one for christmas and the first few days they sounded ok but each day they got worse and worse now it sounds like crap.Trash can lids are better then this.
