Pros
Brought two violins-3/4 and 4/4 for myself and a younger sibling for christmas. The strings are high quality and the violin craftsmanship for a beginner's violin is high quality as well. Comes tuned, rosined, and ready to go.
The violins arrive on time and are professionally packed to prevent damage. There was a hand written itemized list to make sure everything was sent.
The case and kit that come with the violin are all you need for a starter pack. The pegs fit well and do not slip, the bridge is sturdy, the fine tuners work well and are easier to turn than i expected.

I found this violin to be exactly what i wanted for starting out, and i thought the price was very reasonable.
Shipping
It is a little out of tune but i expected that with the shipping.
Packaging/appearance
I'm also thrilled by the expert packaging and the fact that the violin came completely set-up.
Was already set up, they even rosined the friggin bow!
Competitiveness
Im no expert but after reading other reviews i chose this one and its a good value for the price.
That being saidit's less expensive on their website.

The sound seems quite nice especially after i got the trala app and played with the tuner and learned to hold the bow properly again and use the right pressure
