way better than what was included with my violin 
by .. A. Nelson (utah)
I am a complete newby when it comes to the violin. I purchased a violin online on a whim, that because it was so inexpensive if I give up well, at least I have something pretty to look at. With that in mind, my cheap violin came with even cheaper worthless rosin. It was hard as a rock, and I had to score the crap out of it just to get dust to go on my bow, and it would play for just a few strokes, then I had to vigorously reapply. I found this rosin at a music store and bought it. One easy application and I was FINALY making real violin noises. So for a newby that doesn't know all the details yet, this saved me. If it weren't for this rosin I might have just completely given up. I definately recommend to anybody who is a beginer.
Great value by .. April Woodard ()
Not only was this inexpensive but it works really well! I went to my local music store before I bought this and the closest thing they had was at least two dollars more than this.

Super Sensitive Violin Rosin Light is as cheap as they come, to put it lightly. When one rents a violin or a viola from a music store, this is typically the rosin they'll give you with your case. Why? It's affordable.
As a more experienced violinist, I'm quick to disparage the use of this rosin. It is low quality, and the bare minimum of what rosin should accomplish. Rosin is an important aspect of playing the violin, as different quality rosins will alter the sound and ease of play.
That being said, however, if you are looking to buy rosin for your beginning violinist, there's no harm in beginning with this rosin. I spent my first two years as a violinist with it. When one can only play twinkle twinkle in a slightly off register, it's more important to worry about firmly grasping the basics of violin technique than the quality of ones rosin.
Additionally, if we're talking about children, whose to say whether they will stick with the violin for very long? Buying expensive, high quality accessories in that scenario just wouldn't make sense. That is the sole reason why rosins such as these, and other low quality shoulder rests exist, to ease the financial burden when one is a beginner.
So, in a nutshell: If you're just starting off as a violinist, this is the most affordable rosin for you. However, as you progress into an intermediate or advanced violinist, do look into other high quality rosins that will add a finishing touch to your playing.
