Not as good as I hoped
Bought this because I did not have any all plastic whistles in my collection. Was hoping it would be a cheaper alternative to the Susato whistles I have seen. Unfortunately, I find that although I like the overall sound and the feel of it, it handles poorly as it takes a lot more puff to play than my Clarke, Generation, Dixon or Feadog metal whistles and tends to split a lot in the second octave with a really nasty sound on certain notes. The Thomann D whistle I also bought has the same problem. I may do some experiments to see if I can modify it to improve it a little but at the moment I've put it away with my other duds. Maybe a better player than me could get it to behave but given that I have a much easier time with other whistles, I think it's just down to the design being not quite right.

C and D whistles: great value and great quality
I have just taken up whistle, but had skilled whistlers test my C and D whistles for me.
I first heard this whistle at a workshop where and we compared it with a Susato and for the huge price difference it sounded great; and way better than the basic tin whistles of similar price (untunable and more piercing sound).
I bought both the Thomann G and C whistles, as the postage (£7ish UK) was no more for one than two. Delivered in the time promised.
Both are described as one piece, but are actually tunable (moveable head) which is a pleasant surprise. Both have good volume, play well through their range, with mellow tone and easy to get good sound out of it. A plastic whistle is also less prone to temperature related tone changes. It also plays well softly (kind to neighbours when learning/practicing). The plastic cases are basic but adequate and perfectly acceptable for the price.
Delighted with my whistles!

A simple 'ok' sound. Second octave lacks
Bought this C whistle without too much expectations. Compared to a generation whistle, the sound is louder and more narrow with less 'overtones'. In the first octave, the notes are easier to play and it's harder to overblow the low C and D. The sound is ok there and relatively loud. It's more like between a tin whistle and a plastic recorder.
In the second octave, the sound lacks the singing in it. It's also not easy for all the notes to sound clear in the high octave. Sound production is a lot but it lacks the rich tones.
Pro
+Low price
+Tunable!
+Loud in first octave
+Easy to play in first octave
Negative
-Cheap feeling (lightness, plastic)
-Second register sounds bad
-Second register hard to play in

Soft tones
This product is a delight. Very soft tones with an easy change of octaves. And the material is pleasant to the touch.

I have just started to learn how to play with a whistle, but I really feel that the sound is nice and I got a sheet with it explaining the notes which I find it is great from Thomann to send this sheet.

Great item that exceeds expectations
Expecting a plactic whistle, when this came I thought it was another product.
This has sturdy plastic and precise, crisp openings for best performance out of the box! Tuned precisely like it's a 3x more expensive product, this seems like a bargain.

4.5 stars
Best bang for buck!
Clear tone and spot on tuning.
The C scale has a mellow tone compared to the D.
The second octave is a little more difficult (as compared to an expensive whistle).
Overall - a great whistle - recommended.

Thomann Irish C Whistle - Excellent product & superb value for the money
The Thomann Irish Whistles are excellent - we purchased both the 'D' & 'C' whistles and can comment on their sound, playability, quality and looks.
These whistles are an excellent alternative to another brand costing about ten times the price. Many people can barely tell them apart - including seasoned players.
I can recommend these whistles for beginner & intermediate levels of players.
