Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Just as a background I have taught piano for over 20 years and I have bought multiple different keyboards for teaching group piano. For the cost this is one of the better keyboards you can buy. It is touch sensitive (the volume changes depending on how hard you press the key) which as a teacher I would say is a must for piano lessons. A digital piano (weighted key) or acoustic (normal) piano are preferred and necessary after the first year, but this would get you started. The biggest complaint I have is the speakers are not loud enough. When I have a group of students I can't hear my ones on the Casio very well. In your own home, this might be preferred, but it doesn't work for me. I can tell the quality difference between this and my Yamaha keyboards. They have better tones, and are easier to use, but only slightly. This is significantly less expensive though than a comparable Yamaha keyboard, so if cost is an issue I would say this is the way to go. I tried a different off brand keyboard and had to return it immediately it was so cheap feeling, plus it came broken. You can't go wrong with Casio though. They definitely make a quality product.
