It is my first practice pad and I love it. It is an excellent tool for everyday rhythm practice. It laying on my living room table and I use it to decorate my free time during cooking or making coffee.
Highly recommended.

Evans RF-12G Practice Pad
Dutch Drummmer 11.05.2018
It seems there's a bit too much bounce.
(... I would have liked slightly less bounce ...)
The sound level "left over" is very little, less compared with practice pads on a table: happy neighbours.
The product looks cheap: the "wood" is no wood but looks like compressed cardboard with some sawdust mixed-in: cheap.
Overall it's ok. Not great: does what is has to do, and the extra bounce is an extra challenge.

I've been using mine regularly for 6 years now and I have no complaints. It does what it's supposed to do very well.

The perfect tool
Anonymous 05.06.2016
The HQ Percussion practice pad is the perfect tool for all drummers out there. Its unique design is simple, portable and comfortable. It is light and easy to store. The practice pad can be mounted on any snare stand or even just played on your knees for a quick practice run. Great tool to improve your playing techniques and warming up before gigs. I would totally recommend it to all as you CANNOT go wrong.
10/10

Reel Feel? At least it's pretty close to it...

I just love the size of that thing. I used to practice with one of the smaller versions which really helped me with my overall "hitting-accuracy", but somehow I could not get used to the small pads slowly starting to move across the tabletop while you're trying to focus on your doubles or diddles. This is why I really appreciate the size and weight of this '12"-monster'! You can even mount it on (nearly) every kind of snare drum stand. It has just the right amount of rebound to simulate a fairly tensed batter head or a cymbal. Just great. Could be a little bit more 'noiseless' for my taste, anyway: one of the best practice pads I've ever had, concerning quality, size and rebound behaviour!

Always has and always will be . . . Good!
Samuel994 30.10.2013
Love this pad! It's a bit heavy, but the tone and rebound off of it are great. I like about the rebound that it isn't rubbery and unrealistic to that of a normal snare drum. Additionally, when playing, you can really get a good tone out of the wooden base through the stick when executing proper technique that cannot be heard within many other practice that simply focus on being "gummy" and bouncy. A practice pad is meant to allow for practice possibilities that would not exist otherwise if a person was limited only to a snare drum and its loudness. I have no issue playing this pad for hours and then playing a normal drum directly thereafter. I recommend it to everyone.

Great Pad
Oguz A. 06.07.2021
Great pad to practice at home especially if you mount it on a snare stand. Has a very nice feel to it while practicing and is not very loud.
The bounce is just a little too much compared to a real snare, unless you're playing with high tuning.
Definitely recommended if you're in the market for a practice pad.

Pure exercising satisfaction
Anonymous 12.02.2015
This pad is Awesome.
Perfect for practice, the rebound is so good you ENJOY it.
Raises your level and makes exercise less boring, and somehow fun.
I also noticed a huge increase in satisfaction with students: I bought two of them to give lessons.
Recommended. If not this, take the two sided one.
Careful: no mount under it, it's just flat wood with some rubber to isolate vibration if you put it on a table (my guess)

Best in the price range
Wilson WIlsonson 02.02.2021
Bought for a friend for practice.
Of course, the pad does not give the same feel as a real snare, but is close enough to practice and have good "feedback".
Build quality leaves nothing to be desired.
