very pleased and remain so after 2 years of ownership. phat sounds and range of tuning with superb kick but snare quite ringy with single ply head so go for twin ply. hardware uniquely sonor and whole kit is easy to keep in top condition if you are careful of course. kick pedal is a tad noisy for recording and i find the hi hat clutch slackens off the top cymbal when played heavily. other than that it's a great looking and sounding kit .

Pros
High-quality all-maple kit. Distinguishing looks and a big sound.
Cons
Surprising lack of shorter depth options for toms.
Verdict
The latest incarnation of the top-of-the-range Sonor Force set-up offers an extremely well-equipped package at a very competitive price. The all-maple nine-ply shells, lacquered finish and solid hardware make a strong combination, and the longish toms combine well with the thickness of the ply to dispense withering amounts of power.
