Description
The PlayMore Design 6-Note Eco Chime Unit is an interactive musical instrument built for schools, childcare centers, hospitals, memory care facilities, assisted living communities, and playgrounds. Tuned to G Major Pentatonic, these chimes invite creative, unscripted play from all ages and skill levels - no musical experience required.

The HDPE frame and aluminum chimes are built to withstand the elements without degrading in quality or sound.
What does "On Casters" mean and why would I choose it?
The On Casters configuration mounts the chime unit on rolling wheels, allowing you to easily move it between rooms, hallways, outdoor spaces, or storage. This is ideal for schools, hospitals, and therapy centers that want to bring the instrument to different groups or spaces throughout the day rather than having it permanently fixed in one location.

Not at all.
