Mesh heads, and the neighbors downstairs · review
A compact mesh starter kit with published assembled dimensions — 102 cm (40.2 in) high, 117 cm (46.1 in) wide — plus a throne, headphones, sticks, a quarter-inch output and USB for recording.
What it amounts to The kit that tells you whether it fits — mesh pads, a seat, headphones and a published footprint.
Axus does something in this listing that almost nobody else does: it publishes the assembled dimensions. One hundred and two centimeters high, 117 wide, 46 deep, or 96 with the throne in position.
For an electronic kit that is the specification that decides the purchase. Kits are bought for small rooms, and a photograph of one against a white background tells you nothing about whether it fits between a bed and a wardrobe.
The kit itself is conventional and complete: an 8-inch mesh snare, three 8-inch mesh toms, three 10-inch cymbals, hi-hat and kick pedals, sticks, a height-adjustable throne and headphones with a long cable, on a light frame.
The module is the compromise. Fifteen sounds is the shortest list here, against 450 on the Donner and 440 on the Nitro Max. What Axus gives instead is connectivity — USB for recording, a quarter-inch jack for an amplifier, an aux input for playing along — and a footprint you can verify before you order.

Same section, nearest price — what the same money else sounds like.
Axus publishes the assembled size: 102 cm (40.2 in) high, 117 cm (46.1 in) wide, 46 cm (18.1 in) deep, or 96 cm (37.8 in) deep with the throne in place. That is more useful than any photograph, and it is worth measuring the corner before ordering.
It feeds an amplifier, a PA or a mixer, which is how an electronic kit is heard by other people in a room. USB handles the computer side; the jack handles the loud side.
