What is the best handpan to consider under £1,500?

Answered by Roadie
The Pearl 22 Handpan With Bag is worth considering at £1,495, including a bag. It is the only handpan in the supplied selection, so there is not enough evidence to call it the best against competing instruments.
The Pearl 22 Handpan With Bag fits a £1,500 budget, with a listed best new price of £1,495. The included bag means you do not need to choose one separately, although its level of protection is not specified.
Before buying, check the instrument’s tuning and note layout, and listen to a demonstration or try it yourself. Those details are not supplied here, so suitability for your music remains an important part of the decision.
For second-hand alternatives, consult the Best-value used hand percussion list. It is a relevant starting point for comparison, but there is no confirmation here that it currently contains handpans.
