Toys and Games Reviews of MiJam DrummerCustomer Review: Awful Product, and Terrible Customer Service to Boot Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these for my 13-year old niece, who loves percussion, and was so excited to get them for Christmas. They looked like a great buy.
Well, the disappointment was palpable two hours later. We got them hooked up, installed appropriate batteries etc., and the light was on, but we could not get any sound from the drumsticks at all. Which was a bummer, but OK, if we could simply either (1) get help or (2) easily replace them.
Nope. The "instructions" were a tiny folded sheet of paper, there is absolutely no troubleshooting, no help, no nothing. I went through everything that came with them but could find anything to help us on next steps or returns, etc. I finally retrieved the original plastic packaging and found a URL in tiny letters for the company. But when I went there, the site again offered no help, tips, or troubleshooting (just a PDF of the really awful original instructions).
There is video on the website showing someone playing the drumsticks but this was no help to us in trying to troubleshoot (except to mildly disappoint my niece when she realized that you have to drum "in the air" to get the best results -- which we did try, with no luck or sound, again).
I next e-mailed the company and got no response. I e-mailed them again and -- seven days later -- the e-mail (in badly worded English) simply asked me if we had tried "plugging in the head phones." Seriously.
Anyway, do NOT waste your money. A terrible product, no support, and no recourse if it doesn't work as it should.
