Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A molded 16x16 drum case for a floor tom. For drummers who gig or ship regularly and need real impact protection, not a padded bag.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Gigging drummers loading a 16x16 floor tom in and out weekly
  • Touring or fly dates where bags get thrown
  • Storing a floor tom long-term without dust or dents

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Bedroom players who never move the kit — a bag costs far less
  • Drummers wanting the lightest possible load-in
  • Anyone with a floor tom outside 16x16 dimensions

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Molded shell

Takes a direct hit without transferring it to the drum. A soft bag only stops scratches and dings.

Detail 02

16 x 16 in. sizing

Cut for a standard 16-inch-diameter, 16-inch-deep floor tom. Depth matters as much as diameter here.

Detail 03

Case per drum

One case, one tom. Kitting out a full set means buying a case for each size separately.

Detail 04

Black exterior

Doesn't show road grime, but also doesn't distinguish your case from every other black case backstage.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure your tom's depth, not just diameter — 16x14 and 16x16 are different cases
  2. 02Plan to remove floor tom legs before packing; check yours detach cleanly
  3. 03Sticks, hardware, and other drum sizes need their own cases

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will a 16x14 floor tom fit?

It will fit with two inches of slack in depth. It'll move around in transit unless you pad the gap.

02Can I put a 16-inch bass drum in it?

Only if it's genuinely 16 inches deep. Most bass drums are deeper and won't close.

03Is this worth it over a padded bag?

If the drum gets loaded into vehicles, flown, or shipped, yes — a molded shell resists crushing. For garage-to-garage moves, a bag is enough.

04Does it hold hardware too?

It's cut for the drum. Legs may need to come off, and there's no separate compartment for hardware.
