Where is a good online store to purchase a metronome?

[KIN]

My boys need a metronome for piano practice. Do you have a suggestion of where to purchase one? I would also love a suggestion of which type and brand or a specific model to purchase. Thanks! :001_smile:

I purchased this one last year for my 2 oldest boys, and it's been used daily ever since. Very reliable. High reviews on Amazon. Looks like it's being offered now by several 3rd party sellers. Take a look.

West Music is a reputable company that has been around for a very long time. They have a large selection of metronomes. I can't recommend a specific model, but I'd recommend an electronic one, with a low battery indicator, volume control, and a light that flashes with the beat. Looking at the West Music website, I'd recommend the Sabine ZipBeat-6000, or the Seiko SQ50. They both have dials to choose the tempo, and lights. The Sabine model has a few extra features (emphasized beats, optional light modes, etc.) not listed on the Seiko, and it costs less. If I were in the market for a metronome, I'd probably go with the Sabine.
