Bought for my daughter who plays clarinet and she seem happy with its performance

Love these reeds, nice sound, long lasting, don't need soaking. After cleaning I can set my clarinet up ready to play and pick it up anytime and blow without wetting the reed, so convenient.

for a plastic reed it’s easy to blow and is in tune and no one can hear any difference i have it as a sos because the wooden reefs give a deeper softer sound

These reeds sounds great and last a long time. I've done blind performance tests with several friends and family members and no one was able to tell the difference in my sound when comparing the Legere to wooden Ricos. Many professional musicians now play on them, including my local favorite Ricardo Morales, principal clarinetist for The Philadelphia Orchestra, and members of both the Berlin and Vienna Orchestras.I've been playing on Legeres for about four or five years in my local community concert bands. They are great for the holiday season when the air is dry, because I never worry about my reed drying out.Once you find the strength you prefer, consider purchasing several because stock sometimes run low.The strength you play on is different from wooden reeds, so look for a conversion chart on-line to help with your decision. I play on a 3.5 Rico reed, but for Legere 2.25 is a perfect fit (some of my friends prefer the Legere 2.5, but I prefer less resistance. I can play on the 2.5 but it takes more effort than I want to exert and I get a great sound on the 2.25.) A quick internet search led me to several websites with the Legere conversion chart. Take the plunge! You won't regret the relatively small investment in money when you consider how much time and aggravation you will save in the long run.

2.25 was too hard and not very expressive. Vendor exchanged for 2.00. Greatly appreciated.
