My only complaint is that the elastic is snug and my feet are women's size 9. 'm surprised this didn't have an adjustable strap like their foot shaker does but I can probably lace my shoe laces over it to secure it or make some other adaptation. Wonderful that it's made in the USA and is well made. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great idea! *by on Reviewed in the United States March 26, 2012* I'm one-third of a semi-pro acoustic trio and have tried to rig typical tambourines in ways that I could stomp or shake them while standing and playing a stringed instrument and ended up frustrated. This nifty and well designed foot tambourine is the answer! While you don't get nearly as many jingles as with a standard tambourine, it's small enough that it doesn't flop around on your foot or have so much weight that it pulls you off balance! It gives just enough sound to be a nice background rhythm instrument.The two toughest things about using one of these are:1. Despite having a pretty good sense of rhythm, it's not as easy as you might think to stay precisely on beat with one of these as it is just tapping your foot.2. Don't even think about stomping this thing at a rate of twice each four-beat bar -- your leg will be exhausted halfway through the song! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Handy *by on Reviewed in the United States September 9, 2015* Bought as an accessory for playing the cajon and used for other assorted percussion. A great item to have if you have your hands full. Our singers often want to borrow it to jingle around with a smaller sound. The elastic strap is a bit suspect for durability, but so far has held up well over several small gigs. I would not trust it if you have large feet or intend to wear bulky shoes. ## Frequently Bought Together - Meinl Percussion Foot Tambourine with Stainless Steel Jingles-NOT Made in China-Accompaniment for Cajon Gigs, 2-Year Warranty, Black (FJS2S-BK) - Meinl Percussion Retractable Nylon Cajon Drum Brushes — Made in USA — for Acoustic Music (CB2) - Meinl Percussion Series Signature Luis Conte Artist Shaker Musical Instrument with Medium Volume — NOT Made in China — for Live or Studio, 2-Year Warranty (SH4BK) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1217376-meinl-percussion-foot-tambourine-not-made-in-china-hands-free](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1217376-meinl-percussion-foot-tambourine-not-made-in-china-hands-free) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
