I’m an adult beginner to this instrument, so I don’t know much about design or quality, but this is a beautiful instrument with a pleasant, rich tone. It is easy to clean and store. The price seems very reasonable for what you get.

Most of us learn to play recorder on inexpensive plastic instruments. There is nothing wrong with that. Frankly some them (such as Eastar's own) sound and play amazingly well. -Far better than the plastic instruments of not too many years ago. But that said, there is nothing like the sound and feel of a well crafted wooden recorder. -Especially when playing the lower notes which can come almost alive with a sonorous bottom and sweet overtones.
The hold back for many players -- the thing that has kept them using plastic instruments -- frankly has been the cost. But to my (and I expect many player's) amazement, even that is changing. This Eastar is made from solid maple. You see it and feel it even before you hear it. And it is thing of beauty. And yet the cost is very reasonable.
The Eastar ERS-31M comes in a nicely fitted case. A case that also holds a cleaning rod (provided) with a soft head and a small container of sealing and protecting lubricant for the cork used where the three parts of the recorder attach to one-another.
Oh, and that brings to mind another nice feature of the Eastar... It is a three piece unit -- and its lower bout rotates allowing for custom placement of the lowest hole allowing for correct placement for those with shorter or longer little fingers. (Once set, however, the two lower parts can remain as one even when the recorder is taken apart for storage.)
Tuning and pitch on my example seemed pretty close to "right on." Although that depends in part on the player's technique. And those used to plastic instruments may have to get the feel for this (and other) wooden ones to assure clear notes free of 'lisps' when playing down low.
Eventually every serious player starts to feel ready to upgrade to a wooden instrument. Now with the Eastar ERS-31M cost need not be so much a factor.

This is a very well made, three piece, instrument regardess of the cost and the cost is extremely fair. I appreciate it coming with a good, protective case and that it includes the swab and the cork grease.
I am a retired music teacher and player (trumpet) who is just learning recorder. I could not ask for a better instrument on which to learn and then for further use beyond the initial learning stage.

I love my recorder❤️
Thank you! The quality is wonderful and I especially like that it came with its own storage case. Once I began playing my granddaughter asked me to teach her... Guess you will be who I go to for my next purchase!!

I really like the wood recorder. It is an instrument for beginners but its tone is more mature than that of a cheap, plastic recorder. I also love how I received my instrument in a timely manner. I actually was not expecting it to arrive to my home address so quickly! Kuddos to the company for their effectiveness!

This was a gift to our 35 year old son who still remembers how to play the recorder from elementary school. Product is of excellent quality for a reasonable price.

The package arrived quickly. I'm impressed by the quality of the wooden recorder, both in terms of craftsmanship and sound. No less impressive is the fact that for such a low price, you get a hard case, a cleaning rod and cork grease. Far exceeded my expectstions. Amazing bargain!
