Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I am an intermediate 58 year old piano player. I have a nice (expensive) Yamaha Clavinova piano at my primary residence. I wanted to buy a piano for my vacation home. I didn’t want to spend too much money for something I would only use occasionally and my guests would leave half filled wine glasses on and bang out “chopsticks” or “Heart & Soul” over and over. But I also didn’t want to buy a plastic keyboard to put in my recently remodeled living room. I looked through Craigslist for weeks and found mostly overpriced or trashed used pianos. I found this on Amazon and thoroughly read all the reviews. I decided to take the chance and buy it. The piano came packaged nicely. It was easy to assemble by myself, although it’s probably wiser and safer for two people to do it. I took off the plastic floor protectors and replaced them with felt to protect my wood floors. The piano itself looks pretty amazing for the price. It is a nice looking piece of furniture and blended well in the room. Does it play and sound like my Clavinova? No. I would compare it to driving a Toyota vs. a Mercedes. But as we all know, a Toyota is a great car!! The weighted keys are a tad bit heavy and spring back a little quickly but after 15-20 minutes you adjust to it. It’s actually good for building finger strength. A traIned ear will find it slightly tinny in the midrange, but not noticeably annoying. Overall I think it’s an excellent piano for the price. I have spent a good 8 hours on it so far, and I’m smiling the entire time! My family and friends think I’m joking when I tell them how much I paid for it. It looks very similar to a Yamaha CLP-525, but at a fraction of the cost. And because it’s digital, it’ll never need tuning! This is a great piano for beginners, intermediate, and even advanced players who just want to have fun.
