What size is the drum pad? The band director has requested a 10" or larger practice pad
1845420
It is 8". As a percussion teacher with music ed background, I wonder why the band director has requested 10" or larger. 8" is standard and in my opinion preferable to a larger pad for a beginner because the smaller pad keeps students focused on staying in the center. A larger pad tends to promote sloppiness and "flailing" for beginners. Hope this isn't too late.

It is only an 8" drum pad. We continue to LOVE this purchase. Top quality instrument, at a great price. It is holding up extremely well.

I currently am using the Meguiar's 6.5 inch pads. If you needed to, 7 inch would work.

Thank you for your answer. We are looking for a large pad and just wanted to be sure before ordering, but was concerned when I saw 2 different measurements. Thanks again.

I have students who have the Vic Firth practice pad and I have played on them. The Vic Firth is a good pad, and has many of the pluses of the RealFeel, but I like the feel of the RealFeel a little better. Either is a good option.

It takes up about a 4' X 2' space. Total space will depend on how you set up the drum kit.

The diameter of the drum is approx. 25 inches and the length is about 21 inches.

It is small set / as drums go. It takes up less Than the size of a child's small table? Like two feet by two feet?

Just a little bigger than the bass drum. Not very big. I think these are the dimensions: 75x65x43 inches My 6 year old daughter loves these and she is taking lessons.

The pad is triangular. At the widest about 5 or 6 inches. At the narrowest about 1 to 2 inches wide. Length is about 8".I prefer the Tena pad versus Depends pad. I'm currently out so the measurements are estimates.

It's a mini drum set, approx 8 inches tall, 12 inches wide...more like a toy, so unless your 15 is wanting a big set, then its not what you want.

Have not seen larger pads. The pressure does not bother me, but if it did I would take the headset into a music shop that sells instruments and listening tools to musicians and perhaps they have a way to reduce the tension in the headband. My guess is someone would have to deftly bend it beyond its springback memory tensile force yet not so far that it takes a permanent set and loses all clamping force. My guess is that this is done for musicians who use headsets all day long.

The size of each drum is given on as: Bass Drum: 16" x 11", Tom Toms: 10" x 5" and 8" x 6" (inches) * Snare Drum: 10" x 6" - Floor Tom: 12" x 10" Hi-Hat with chain driven pedal and Ride/Crash Cymbal * Includes: bass drum chain driven pedal, a pair of wooden drum sticks, and an adjustable round padded drum throne (seat) According to my kid's height I set the height of crash 36 inches (can be increased even more). Bass with two toms width is around 22 inches(not adjustable) Did you mean to up to what age can this be used? Adjusted properly then this can be used a max by a 11 year old. Snare and floor tom come with their own stand and can be moved and adjusted accordingly. If you mean the box dimensions they are 19 X 20 X24. Hope this helps. After buying this product I feel I should have gone for GP brand instead. These are nice drums but has some quality downside to it. Good Luck with your buying.

The pad is about 3 inches x 11 inches. I'm not at home, so I am guessing. But it's around that.

I guess I would not know if it does or not because I don't have a remo practice pad but one thing you can check to see if it will work or not is does it have a normal 10'' type of drum rim and lugs if it does then it should work.

11-1/2" x 11-1/2" x 18". It is very, very cool, and I play it sometimes in my R&R;/oldies band, as well as at church on Sundays (where I am the percussionist). Everybody loves it as soon as they see it and hear it. Well worth the money!!
