You do want to take someone when trying out instruments who is a fully functional performer on whatever instrument is is that you are looking for, to check the mechanical condition of the instrument. BUT...that being said, YOU must spend some time auditioning these instruments too. You'll need one that fits YOU. Know that if you are auditioning 5 flutes of the same make/model/brand, there will still be differences, even though they are sold as being the same. Find the ONE that works best for you. Many flutes feature a hand-cut embouchure, and it is essential to get one that works with YOUR hardware (shape of your mouth, teeth, etc). Take the extra time, you'll be glad you did. Intermediate instruments are often called 'step-up' instruments. It usually pays to buy the best quality that you can afford.
Good Luck!
