This flute would be a perfect choice for a beginner, maybe someone who wants to self-teach, or a doubler like me (plays sax, melodica, harmonica, ukulele, piano) who wish to try a good workable concert flute without putting in a big investment and not having to worry about getting a used non- playable or poor quality flute, then ending up with unexpected very expensive repair or overhaul cost that can be several times more than the quite reasonable cost of this flute. I can not comment on long term durability but knowing instruments well enough, it looks like this flute could withstand reasonable use, and if it no longer works, getting a replacement would not hurt at all given the inexpensive cost and great value.
Update: Excellent customer support experience from both Nuvo International and the seller Hour Loop- both responded by email within 48 hours! I contacted both by email regarding the missing tiny lip plate removal tool which was missing- no doubt during packing as the box and other accessories were unopened. I didn't want to return or exchange this great playing flute through Amazon (per protocol) just to get a small non vital part, so I contacted the seller and Nuvo directly. Brittany from Nuvo is sending the missing part immediately! Talk about great service. Highly recommended!
This is not a toy. It plays well and with good intonation (in tune with itself from note to note). It looks very cool and has the tone of a wooden flute, which is nice. You can leave it out and play it on a whim, which is a big plus. I like the case and feel the price is fair.
The flute handles and responds in a manner apart from how a metal flute does, so I feel a nickel beginner flute is best for a beginner.
My recommendation for a beginner is to get this flute secondary to a metal flute. Leave it out and keep the metal one in the case except for lessons, serious practice and school. Use the Nuvo flute for fun and to keep you playing every day.
For the experienced player, this is a great flute to take out of the house without the concern a silver flute merits. It is fun as heck and anyone who likes to be able to pick up their instrument at a moment's notice for some tunes should own one.
So, I'm not advocating this flute as an alternative to a metal flute. Bad idea, but I've outlined some good reasons to get one and as a very experienced and active player, I tecommebd buying one.

Así me resulta fácil ir aprendiendo sin preocuparme de un cuidado especial.
People said it is light weight and it is compared to my irish flute but not so light as i thought. Mine is black and it sounds brilliant. Ok its not £4k flute but who cares i an not going to perform at the proms. So if this your first get this. Its so easy to play and pick, the other flute is harder to play but then i am just starting out. Great flute - I will come back later to see how it holds up with time.
