Of course you did, since it's just a relabelled chinese model often sold 
under the Medeli name.

    That's the way with crap - take it back!

Guitar center?

Probably

Get a decent kit or at least a kit that isn't sold under false flag of the 
legendary british firm Simmons.

Yes...

So, now I've answered. This list is a bit bitter about Guitar Center using 
the Simmons brand to market crap drums. Like re-labelling an east german 
Trabant from the cold war days and calling it a Mercedes... anyway, if I 
were you I'd take it back since you never got what you payed for since you 
obviously believed in the name and then ivest that gear in something better. 
Roland, Yamaha, or even some vintage Simmons stuff...

Good luck!

Quite a lot of postings for a banned theme?

Don't blame our Trabant! (*joking*)

Poor  them ...
