I may be a bit more negative than others due to the fact that I’ve owned accordions and concertinas for over 25 years. When I came across this toy accordion I assumed it would be of better quality due to it being a Hohner, which is a well known and reputable german accordion maker. If you play the accordion, don’t expect to play anything, it leaks air, so you can’t really play anything. Unfortunatley this toy accordion is just like any of the others available on the market with the Hohner name slapped on the tiny box it comes in. The accordion itself just has a small sticker (made in China) on it. So, if like me you expect this toy accordion to be a bit better in quality due to the hohner name, don’t be fooled. It’s no better or worste than the others I’ve seen. I bought two and one had better tone and sound than the other. Also, my 3 year old broke the strap which is a one piece (left arm and top/bottom snap to close bellows. Also, the bass buttons ended up bending requiring me to open the accordion and bending them back. Lasted 2 days before the strap broke and buttons bent. All the others on the market seem to be of the same quality, so expect this can happen. Again, it’s a toy. For the price, it’s worth it, just don’t expect it to be better becuase it claims to be a hohner. If you’re looking for a toy to get your kid interested, it’s a great toy to buy, if you want him to learn to actually play, invest in a child’s accordion for a few hundred, becuase, these toys are not really playable. For a toddler, it’s fine and serves it’s purpose.

This is a toy. It will make noise, but not music. The bellows on mine was separated from the frame and leaking air and had to be glued together. The keys are clunky and the vinyl straps have sharp edges and are very uncomfortable.

My husband plays the accordion and we purchased this toy accordian for our 3 year old grandson. He does not go anywhere now without it. It is well constructed and takes the sometimes rough handling from a 3 year old.
