Evette Clarinet

My wife decided to pick up the clarinet again. She ended up getting a Evette/Sponsored by Buffet/Paris France model (K8171) from the local music shop. I have read through the thread, after doing some searching, and have read varying impressions of these instruments. We have a return period here and I was wondering if anyone could provide any info/pros/cons/personal experiences with this instrument. She originally liked the tone, then didn't, but switched to a harder reed and the sound quality improved. I think she sounds fine with it, but her ear is better than mine. I purchased a new vandoran mouth piece and ligature and she is currently using a vandoran #3 reed. She was a very good player in High School and I would like this to be a good experience for her and not a frustrating one. Any comments would be greatly appreciated on whether to keep this one or take it back for a different type (recommendations).

Thanks again,

Mike
