Customers say
Customers find the Otamatone toy cute and easy to use, with many saying they figured it out right away. They appreciate it as a gift, particularly for music lovers and 12-year-old granddaughters. However, the sound quality receives mixed feedback – while some enjoy the unique sounds, others find them annoying. Moreover, the build quality is concerning, with multiple reports of the product breaking within three months of use. Additionally, customers disagree on whether it’s worth the money, and several report that it doesn’t work properly.
