Here's what I wrote about Moore flutes on this forum about 6 months ago:
Moore flute: I have one, the first flute I ever bought, and it almost turned me off flute playing. Difficult to play, not well in tune, not a nice tone. Buy mine!

. . . I'll second that Jens. I don't know how a respectable retail music outlet in the UK could sell these monstrosities for the price they are !! . . . Buy mine ?? . . . you could positively have mine for the price of the postage. However, I wouldn't want anyone to have such a bad first experience.
You could make a better sounding flute yourself with a dollars worth of cheap plastic pipe . . . cos' that's all Moore flutes are.
