The sound, the touch, the quality of this piano is tremendous for the price. I sold a 400-pound 80-year-old upright because I didn't want to send it when I moved. I bought this electronic piano thinking that it would sound good and never need tuning, and it could easily be moved by 2 people. It simply sounds wonderful, like a well-tuned regular piano. The samples are marvelous, and I found I can combine two sounds to create other sounds. For example, combining one of the piano sounds with one of the harpsichord sounds makes a great honkey-tonk sound. I love the second electric piano sound and the jazz organ, which sounds like a hot B-3. And it looks great too. I was expecting contact-paper covered cardboard and particle board, but it's looks much better than that. The touch is exactly like a conventional piano. My only comment is that it takes both hands to transpose, making it difficult in the middle of a piece. It would be cool if they could make it a pedal function. All in all, for the price they're asking (including the bench!) you can't beat it. If I had the money I'd buy a second one for our downstairs.

Ok I just got this Digi Piano 2 days ago and all I can say is that its as real as it gets. I didn't know it was the top 5 selling piano when I bought it. I just bought it cause it sounded the best out of all the digi pianos in the room. This the closest thing to the real deal. Bench is nice and stable. The keys feel really nice after a few hours of breaking them in. The speakers sound clear and real and deep when you hit the lower keys. Has all the sounds you need and you can even use 2 sounds at the same time. Has reverb, and effects like tremolo, delay, phase. Pedals feel real, piano sits on my carpet extra sturdy. Took about 10 mins to set up. Easy 5 piece assembly. Has outs and ins, midi, headphones, speaker on or off switch. If you're picky about real piano sounds then get this baby, she sounds like the real thing no doubt. Real enough to record some tracks in my studio. This thing is my new love. Thank you Yamaha for making a beautiful product.

This instrument sounds great! While NOTHING can take the place of a 9' concert grand, this comes as close as you possibly can, and sounds good doing it! Not a lot of features, but who needs them if you just want to play the piano? The graded hammer action simulates an acoustic. You will NOT be disappointed when you buy this instrument.

My wife heard it she said, "are you sure that doesn't have strings in there?!" Great quality with exceptional sound performance.

Features: Doesn't have a lot

Quality: The sound is worth every ninth star. The cabinetry is beautiful as well

Value: MUCH cheaper than purchasing an acoustic and sounds like it too......without tuning!

I purchased this piano last week because of the reviews on this site. I just wanted to add my two cents. This piano is everything we expected. We even listen to it play while we eat dinner. It plays 50 wonderful classical songs. As far as action goes, it plays better than my parent's piano. Another thing I thought was cool is that you can change the type of scale the piano is tuned to (e.g. MeanTone, WerchMeister) to better simulate 16th Century harpsicord music. You will not be disappointed with this piano. I would not have even been able to get an acoustic upright into the only room I had room to put a piano. Two people can move this easily. I am also going to buy some organ music because the church organ sound that comes out of this is amazing. Have fun. You will not regret this purchase. My whole family loves it and it has inspired everyone to learn the piano.

When I first got this, I was just like, oh boy, here we go again, another HUGE bill on visa. and when I used, BAM I was speechless. If you want to buy this, GET IT> I luv the sound that it plays, and with 14 musical instruments to choose from, youll have a blast. When you play somthing really bad, you will sound like a pro with this one device!
