Doesn't seem to keep a tune. We tune it, and then check it, and it's out of tune from when we started, so we tune it again and again. Usually takes 3-4 times to get it to hold. But by the next time my daughter plays it's out of tune again. The peg screws at the neck don't have any thread, they wedge into the holes but they come loose. The music store violin we rent doesn't lose tune anywhere near as often. This was purchased to practice at home. More frustrating than anything.

P.S. Update edit. Glarry refunded me $15 for my troubles which is fine I guess. But after another session trying to tune this violin my anger issues cannot.

I've cut my losses and thrown this thing out. It's done and over. I apologized to my daughter, and we're moving on. She'll just stick with the rental. I googled youtube videos and tried a few different tricks. The included tuner doesn't even show the correct notes half the time, and using a downloaded app for my phone provided some consistent results, but after you finish and go back to check your work it starts all over again. I make it tighter it goes lower, the fine tune knobs I can barely grasp with my fingers and after spending so much time trying to get a tune it becomes painful. Tapping out, I'm done. Unless you can afford to buy better higher quality instruments I wouldn't take the cheaper route ever again. It's not worth the savings.
