Something between an instrument and a toy. I would say that the big version (Deluxe) is some playable and with a little practice you can play scales and arpeggios. I've tried before also the original version, deluxe version is definitely more instrument than a toy. Cute design, responds well with mouth opening, also sound output replicates the response on mouth opening.
I used it in some jam session and in some music comedy videos, audience response was crazy!
Build quality is very good, it feels very solid.

Stunning instrument!

Most people would consider this a toy, but with enough practice and dedication, it is far from it.
The Deluxe model is much more suited to people who are wanting to actually make music with the Otamatone.
You can plug headphones into the Otamatone Deluxe but this does not turn off the speaker. This does however allow you to record pure Otamatone into softwares such as Audacity or FL Studio with an AUX cable.
11/10, I love it <3

Very fun instrument and unique sound

The initial reason I got the Otamatone, was to try it out for my instrumental electronic productions. Something like having a talkbox sound or an interesting replacement of having no vocals.
Although it's hard to be played seriously, it's really expressive and offers quite a good range of sounds even for a professional recording/session.
It also does a great job being a music toy (as it was intended) that you can just pick up and make sounds in just a moment.
The handling is quite tricky but manageable with some practice. I only wish it had a few fret markings to give clues of what note you're about to play because the pitch distribution is sort of all over the place.

You say tomato, I say omatonato

I would definitely recommend the bigger model of this instrument/toy. All the children who tried it at school were amazed and didn't want to stop playing with it. Octave choice is a good feature.

Expressive and unique

I have only positive things to say except I wish there was a note guide across the side of the pressure board to give one an idea of where one is playing approximately
