I'm a drummer for 20+ years, I have this kit, and I love it!! I bought it from this same site around Xmas of 2022 for $1099 plus taxes and free shipping! If you're not a drummer, it may be overkill, but for me this was a Goldilocks kit. The real feel hi-hat is a game-changer, and the bigger snare is also great (I upgraded from a TD-11).
These kits have multiple trigger zones so that they can send more midi signals than cheaper kits, so the actual tones and effects you can get on a single pad strike are near indistinguishable from recording an acoustic set professionally (and the pads are velocity sensitive so that nothing feels robotic about what you hear on the other end). The cymbals (like the TD-11) are "choke-able" as well. The built-in sounds and songs are ok for practicing, and even good enough to use out of the box in a live setting (with tons of control capability for ambiance and other variables). Bottom line - great kit at a great price if you're a drummer. I have Superior Drummer, Addictive Drums, and Steven Slate for drum plugins that allow me way more kits and options to customize (more than I would ever need in 3 lifetimes) - works well and easily with all of them, and the abilities this kit offers when coupled with those plugins is outstanding for home recording.
Go try some drum set at the store and you will have a better feel for your needs. Glad I did not settle on Simmons or Alesis lower models
