20 Best Keyboard For Playing Piano (2023 Updated)

This keyboard deserves 5 stars. I myself own another brand of keyboard but purchased this keyboard for our grandchildren. 1. The quality of sound is remarkably close to the grand piano which also sits in their home.

2. The touch or action is very, very close to the grand piano. 3. The design of the piano is lmagnificent. 4. The sound of the piano is as close as you can get to the real deal. 5. The opportunities for additional musical “gymnastics make this piano ideal for the music student to expand their interest in piano.

6. WHEN NO ONE ELSE HAD THIS KEYBOARD AVAILABLE WALMART SHIPPED THIS PIANO AT THE HEIGHT OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON TO US IN 6 DAYS. AMAZON WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF STOCK. I would recommend purchasing the traditional Yamaha stand for this keyboard and not the double X stand if you have younger children as this will make the keyboard much more stable should a child knock into the piano.

The double X stand is also not great for older folks with long legs.

We were very pleased with our purchase of this piano. It seems to be a good choice for beginners or intermediate players. The features and sounds on this keyboard cover many of the musical bases that a person needs to play different styles of music and it can be easily connected to a mixer for live playing.

The rhythm and metronome features are more than enough to keep practice fresh and fun. The 4 grand piano sounds are probably the most outstanding of the 24. You get the sounds and feel of a real piano’s strings resonating from one another’s vibrations.

Different notes played together feed off each other and resonate in different ways just as a real piano would. It has a very convincing sound. The weighted keys also add to the feel of a real instrument.

We have also used the Smart Pianist app on our iPads to interface with the piano without any issues. While the onboard controls are very minimal, requiring a person to press combinations of buttons/keys to adjust settings, the app gives you access to all the features and settings on a large touch screen.

To sum it up, this piano has all the main features you need in a keyboard. In my opinion, to compare this piano (as some have) to others costing twice as much with hundreds of sounds is unfair. It is what it is.

If you are looking for something in this price range and are content having basic features then this is an excellent choice!.

I’ve had my Donner DEP-20 for almost a year and I play it hard almost everyday. It is fully weighted & transitioning from my old upright I was very sore in my biceps & wrists! It took months for me to get used to.

But now I can play for hours & it has been fun. It can go really loud with the heavy duty speakers & has 3 pedal built into the stand. It is small enough to fit just about anywhere, & the stand is attractive.

I wish it were higher tho, it is rather low. Things that bother me: it has a few “twangy” notes up from middle C, it loses polyphony on heavily chorded songs sometimes, if the plug is the slightest bit loose it has a ringing sound, the voice sampling is just okay, a lot of the extra voices are not at all good, the music holder doesn’t stay on after awhile & doesn’t hold music books unless against a wall.

But with all the cons, it was what I could afford at the time & in the price range was the best choice. Customer service is outstanding but all thru email. The first piano I got had a defect & after some back & forth, Donner told me to keep the piano I had & sent me another one free of charge! I mean, wow! What can I say except that’s great service! And it was under $500 with free shipping & includes a very nice stand, fully weighted full size keys, 3 built in pedals, great speakers, & all the bells & whistles.

I do like the double voice feature, & I often will use it with a strings accompaniment. Very nice. I am a long time piano player so the sounds are more noticeable(& annoying) to me than would be to a beginner.

But as I said, I had to stay in low price range & having an in tune playable piano with a decent, not great, but good enough for now sound, 88 weighted keys, super speakers, 3 pedals is a blessing as I love to play.

I have given this piano more than a normal workout, I play it long & hard & its held up quite well. If you can’t afford what you really want, this will suffice for a good while. You’ll enjoy just being able to play.

I simply love this board. Its almost everything I need. The sound is amazing. Quality is fantastic. The Weighted keys are Everything. The only dislike I have is there is no quick way to pull up instruments/demos/sounds.

You literally HAVE to scroll through EVERY sound to get to the one you want. And you can’t even save it to a faster location. Otherwise, I’d definitely recommend this board to anyone.

This is by far the most realistic keyboard Ive ever encountered! You can adjust the touch sensitivity, so whether you want it to feel like a real piano or like a keyboard to play around on, its perfect! The only thing is that I havent figured out how to quickly change from one noise setting to another.

Im sure theres a way but its definitely not intuitive. The synth sounds arent the best Ive ever heard but definitely not the worst either. This is a perfect keyboard for playing at home (if you dont have room for a real one like me haha) or at a gig.

I cant believe its so affordable!!!.

I am an intermediate keyboard player. I have owned a few different Korg and Arturia keyboards over the last decade. They have had various levels of playability and quite a variety of sounds — many usable, many simply cheezy.

Most recently I was using an Arturia midi keyboard with Mainstage to support a new cover band and for performances at church. The system was adequate, but the required link to a laptop (or other device) was becoming cumbersome.

So, I started looking for a real stage keyboard with excellent playability and a variety of quality sounds for live performances of rock and pop songs. I considered the Nord Stage 3 and the Yamaha YC61, and ultimately chose the Yamaha YC61.

I love it! It is very playable — noticeably better than the Korg Kross and Arturia Keylab Essential that I have owned. The quality of the build is fantastic. The organ sounds are fabulous! Are they better/worse than the Nord — I can’t say, but they are more than sufficient for my purposes.

The ability to switch quickly between organ, piano, and synthesizer sounds is really useful. The Yamaha YC61 has a very efficient layout and a convenient set of sections that you can turn on/off with the flip of a switch.

It is a pleasure to play, and I expect that this will be my main keyboard for the decade to come.

The most common comparison for this is the Nord Electro 6D. If you spend any time with this at all, your going to quickly discover the YC61 is a LOT more keyboard on almost every level. Far more master controller features, more in-depth FX routing and control, Vastly larger sample ROM library ON BOARD.

The biggest advantage of the Nord is that you can swap out samples from their sample library but you have to constantly choose which ones to load and which to leave out because of the very limited sample space inside the Nord.

The YC61 has a much bigger library and they are already in memory all the time. This is invaluable if you are trying to cover a lot of bases with just one keyboard. The other biggest comparison ( especially online and Youtube ) is the difference in sound character.

The Nord has a more upfront ( punchy mid eq ) sound for live performance while the YC61 has a more ‘Radio Ready’ ( scooped mid eq ) sound out of the box. But the Yamaha, unlike the Nord, can easily change this character with its ‘on board Master EQ Section” We were easily able to match our Nords overall ‘Mid Forward’ sound character with the Master EQ on the YC61.

The drawbars, unlike the Nord, show the current position of the loaded patch via the drawbar lighted LED settings that can easily be seen even in the dark. AND those can be different colors for EACH patch.

Both the Nord and the YC61 are well made, solid instruments with great feeling keypads but the YC61 is simply far more powerful under the hood where it matters most.

This is an incredibly powerful board and if you’re checking this video out, there’s a pretty good bet, you’re also checking out the Nord Electro Series as well. If that’s the case and you think you’ve seen all this keyboard has to offer.

think again! This keyboard has some amazing tricks up its sleeve and some special features that will blow you away compared to the Nord Electro Series. Right off the bat is the comparison to the Nord Electro D Series.

I bought both and returned the Nord. The Nord has some strong features including sampling and brand notoriety. But when I started to actually compare them side by side and found out more about the Yamaha, things started to become apparent that the Nord was not the clear choice, as I has been lead to believe by the hype.

The Nord, even with the expanded memory, can only hold so many sounds for both the Piano and Synth/Sample sections, especially if you load the samples with damper resonance. The Yamaha has a huge variety of sounds, many taken from the CP/Montage library and they are already part of the keyboard OS.

So you dont have to choose which sounds your going to sacrifice just because of memory space. The Nord has many of the same features but implements them in strange ways. For example, on the Nord you can transpose the keyboard to any key, like on most boards, but reverts back to standard when you change patches.

Meaning you cant change patches in a song thats transposed without going through the several step procedure again. On the Yamaha, its global and has a quick access button right on the panel. The Yamaha has HUGELY underrated feature in the main FX section called Master EQ.

This is a game changer! This allows you to change from Yamaha’s ‘Radio Ready’ sound to a more appropriate ‘Mids Punch’ sound for live performance instantly! Plus a Full Featured 24bit USB Audio Interface that takes your IOS based sounds and seamlessly PREMIXES them all with the internal sounds to the main outs and headphones!.

I wasnt expecting anything fancy, just basic quality, but this is cheap. This is dollar store quality, should be priced around $40 for what you get. The main deal breaker is the volume, the lowest level at 1 is what would be a 6 or 7 out of 10 on a traditional keyboard piano volume scale.

The piano options are extremely loud down to just loud. It does not get quiet. I was sold on over 250 timbres (sounds) but they literally all sound the same with just slight variations. I couldntThe piano itself weighs maybe 5 pounds, its so light.

Very cheap plastic. Again, I didnt expect super quality for the price, but for this price you can get a Casio CTK 2500 which is far superior quality! As someone with 2 decades playing piano, I suggest that.

Thats what we ended up buying after we exchanged this one.

Its crap, not worth the $, misrepresentation!!! LED. nooope. That was a slick move to get people to buy this plastic crap. The description of the item was edited and changed LED Keyes to LED screen. What a crock! Do not buy this its a plastic toy.

Literally a joke. Returning this in the morning. Just spend the money to get the real thing if that’s what you are looking for. And from a name brand. I should of known better. Saving a few bucks wasn’t worth it with this keyboard.

I’ve been learning piano on a small beginner’s keyboard that I borrow from my mother. It has been great, but I was certainly ready for a keyboard with improved sound. I turned to a well known franchise and picked out the Korg i3 Music Workstation.

Long story-short, they mistakenly sent me a Midi keyboard that I have since returned. Due to no replacement being available, I switched by focus to digital pianos. In doing so, I came across a sold out Korg B2 88-Key Digital Piano.

After a simple google search for this piano in White, I was led to American Music Supply. I’ll be honest, I was a bit nervous that I would receive a notification sayin that item I order was in fact out of stock, as this particular piano in white was back ordered everywhere else from what what I could see.

Spoiler alert – didn’t happen! I received the intended item and could not be happier about it. The sound is great, the packaging was protective and my order arrived without damage, marks, scuffs, etc.

While I did not have a negative customer service experience per se, I didn’t really have an experience at all. I did reach out to ask about my shipping information and never received a response. Luckily, it wasn’t anything urgent but I’d say acknowledgment is important overall and could improve.

I absolutely would recommend American Musical Supply and the Korg B2. I will likely purchase from the company again in the future. Recommendation: The Korg STB1 stand is a perfect fit! I purchased this particular stand elsewhere due to availability at the time but highly recommend keeping an eye out for it if you have or choose to treat yourself to the Korg B2 Digital Piano.

I purchased it when it was around 350 USD. An amazing instrument for learning. The sustain pedal is sturdy. I was skeptic of the ‘white noise’ issue that was mentioned in a lot of reviews. I did not notice noise of any kind when it is just switched on and my house is hauntingly quiet.

You can also hook up your phone (3. 5 mm audio jack) or your PC (USB-A) to this Piano and use it as a speaker to play along or to just listen. If you are just planning to learn to play the piano, this is a great purchase.

If you need the extra voices and background styles, this is not the instrument. Keep the manuasafe and handy – there is no screen on this instrument.

This is a fantastic piano keyboard for both beginners and casual advance players. The sound is beautiful – all the piano keys included are very welcoming. Plus you can hook it up to your mac, pc, ipad or phone and use it as a midi controller.

Better yet, you can use the korg apps (bundled) or any app on the ipad which gives this keyboard an infinite amount of playable sounds. Weight of the keys are superb and can be adjusted and tuned to your liking.

I feel this keyboards price is very reasonable considering what you are getting. This definitely beats those ‘plasticky’ cheap keyboards and definitely worth the purchase.

Very bad product, didn’t like the keyboard at all. I was attracted by lower price. But its not worth it. When you try to play the piano, some of the keys will randomly not work or make sound at all. The next attempt it will work fine.

I have another Yamaha piano which i play often and there is no such concern there.

The sound is beautiful, very close to the real piano sound, and the frequency of the sounds are accurate. When I play. I feel that the keys are a little hard, which is more different from the real piano.

I hope to improve it.

88 keys and fits in a small room. I bought it specifically for the MIDI Bluetooth. Quick note; iOS will not find the device and you have to use the Roland app. Once you do garage band and other apps will recognize that the device is the.

It’s hammer action but not weighted. This won’t bother novice players but will intermediate to advanced players. I bought it specifically for midi but the sounds are adequate when played through decent speakers/headphones.

The internal speakers are lacking. I would recommend for beginners or small apartments when on a budget.

the piano sounds on this piano are annoyingly unrealistic and when you turn up the eq the piano sound has a metallic ring to it that hurts my ears the action is shallow and barely weighted, touch sensitivity is low and inconsistent, you could barely touch the key and it will play a loud note, and the same amount of force applied to different notes does not give you the same level of sound.

also the piano is not very user friendly as it has many “hidden” functions that you will forget easily if you dont have the app or user manual. this includes the ability to change the ratio on splits, layers, reverb and chorus levels/types, and so on.

however, its bluetooth function is great for iphone/ipad midi, the organ sounds are half decent, and astetically it looks like a sharp piano. If i had to buy a beginner keyboard again i would have just saved a bit more for the yamaha p-45, which i reccomend to anyone looking for a new piano.

the williams line of keyboards are mass-produced, and in my local guitar center they literally have giant piles of the allegro 3s they are trying to push on unknowing piano-noobs. dont let the sharp box with words of quality and “premium” on it fool you, this is pretty much a piece of junk that wouldnt satisfy anyone over 12 years old.

I bought this after listening to sound samples and watching reviews on youtube. The sound quality is surely unmatched in this price range. The grand piano sounds, the synths, keyboards, and especially the Rhodes and organ sounds, and all the others, are excellent.

This keyboard is a good choice if you: Are learning the keyboard, and want a good quality sound at a budget price point Are an experienced musician looking to get a cheap practice or portable keyboard If you are very tight on space and want something that looks excellent, performs excellent, and is able to do MIDI interfacing on DAWs and notation apps.

The only con I have is that some of the features on this keyboard are a little tedious to access or enable, namely programming the metronome and setting intonation and reverb effects. However, I have to say I don’t really care.

The fact that you can set this thing to play in Just temperament and choose the tonic far surpasses anything anywhere near this price point. If you’re looking for an arranger keyboard or something that can accompany you, this is not your keyboard.

The Yamaha PSRs have more features, but they feel much more like toys to me. This is more of a legitimate musical instrument. Oh, and the design is outstanding. This keyboard is gorgeous to look at, truly a masterpiece.

We wanted a keyboard for an 8 year old, to support her piano lessons. We weighed various options. We like: – The realistic instrument sounds – A manageable number of sounds with very little dross in there – Feel is not too different from a piano, for a beginner – Price is good – Keyboard is amongst the smallest and lightest in the category – Good speakers built in.

Things I don’t like, but that don’t really bother me: – doesn’t support bluetooth headphones even with a dongle – relies on flimsy 3. 5mm jack to connect any external amp/headphones.

I use this product only as a MIDI controller for realistic piano, thus I am very happy with its action and its lack of bells and whistles. Nevertheless, its Bluetooth connection at least on my device clearly does not work—I tried it on multiple Apple devices and PC’s and it simply was not detectable via Bluetooth by any of my devices (and yes, I know its function combinations that turn Bluetooth on and off).

Also, the action is pretty heavy in that you won’t get MIDI velocity signals higher than 80 or so, no matter how hard you bang on the keys. Therefore, you would need to adjust the velocity curve on your piano software drastically in order to get a good sound out of it (I use the preset “slow keyboard” (not even the “moderately slow” one!) to get a decent response out of this keyboard on Pianoteq).

Also trills and tremolos will be very sluggish and really the hardest thing to perform by this keyboard (though still doable after fiddling around with software settings and also some thorough warm-up practise to sort of “work in” the action mentally for yourself and get a good control ultimately).

Overall, as a controller this keyboard will definitely remain my main playing instrument in this price range and in the long run and I am very happy with it. Thanks Roland for this simplistic but advanced MIDI instrument!.

Over all great price for what you’re getting. Great piano feel. But the thing that bothered me the most was the sound at around C4. The high and low notes sounded great Just like a real piano. But around C4 really wasn’t happy with the sound.

Didn’t sound like a piano to me. There are a few really good Piano programs that you could use with this digital piano but they only work on a computer. Pianoteq is one of the good programs but it is only offered for computer.

No support for iPads or iPhones. Roland has an app called Piano partner 2 which lets you tweak the sound and a bunch of other option but it’s very limited. Also it froze on me several times. I think if the Piano programs were offered to work with an iPad or iPhone I would have kept this digital piano.

Maybe if iPad or iPhone support will be offered I will buy this product again.

What is really nice about the Roland is that you can both send a signal to a recording device like your laptop while you can also hear what you play. In other words the signal is divided into two paths.

When I was recording with any software, latency was an issue but fortunately Roland has done away with that You can hear what you are live recording with zero latency. Of course the sound is very powerful.

Since I have not played any other electric piano on this level I really cant compare it to other expensive pianos, however for the price the sound is great its very loud and powerful and sweeps me away.

Oh and I send my signal out through my headphones jack which is a 3. 5 does not stop the quality of my recording. I have not tried out midi on this. I actually dont know how to use midi at all so I dont know how to evaluate that.

This piano does come with some old sounds like ragtime, organ. You can control some settings and voices through your cell phone to an Roland app. I can easily move this piano around but it is big 88 keys and heavy.

Very happy overall with it!.

I reached out just to advise that the piano keyboard had 3 keys that make no sound. I didn’t really expect much from it, figuring I’d just get the “brush off” about it. Imagine my surprise when almost immediately I was informed via email that another keyboard was on the way.

This was a Christmas gift for my granddaughter and she was THRILLED to learn she was getting a fully functional keyboard. She loved the keyboard, but was disappointed about the 3 nonworking keys. I will purchase from this seller again.

This is an exceptional product for the price. I have this being shared between five kids ages 6 to 10. The only thing I don’t like is how easily the keyboard moves on the stand. However the keyboard is secured by straps so I know it’s not going to hit the floor if it does slip.

Very easy to put together. Sound is great!.

I purchased this keyboard for my daughter because it is exactly like the one I grew up using. She loves the option to use the light up instructor to learn songs. Great to have the microphone and headphones included!.

As a reliable niche product targeting the basic needs of professional stage performers, it does it’s job well. Portable, solidly built, controls easy to use in live mode, consistent action, acceptable sounds, especially after the last OS update (thanks for the CF3!) Overall, I am satisfied.

A suggestion for future models: the keys should depress an additional 2 or 3mm, in order to emulate the range of movement and expression of real grand piano keys. the CP88 hits bottom just a bit too soon.

Also, I suggest a new CP88 OS update to address the following: Add a few of the excellent samples that Yamaha used in previous models, such as the P250. For example: – The Rhodes had distortion audible ONLY when a key was hit hard.

This was a welcome expression tool, and is absent on the CP88. – The Imperial sounds different between sectors of the keyboard, almost as if different techniques were used at the low, mid, and high range, and the shifts happen from one key to the next, not subtly.

– The S700 decay has been deliberately cut too short. – The C7 sounds too metallic in the low range, almost as if the “hammers” had less felt. – The acoustic bass sounds like a deeper bass guitar, very metallic.

The sample on the P250 was better, with the softer sound of plucked gut strings. – The B3 sample on the P250 was also closer to the real thing. I hope this helps. Best, MxB.

I’m absolutely in love with this keyboard. I can’t stop playing it. It’s the FEEL of the thing. It just wants to pull music out of me. The real test of a musical instrument is not whether it has this or that “feature,” or how its technical specifications compare with others – it’s whether it inspires you to make music with it.

You can’t find that out by reading reviews on the internet. You just have to sit down with it and see how you react to each other. When I started seriously looking for my next keyboard, I was sure I would end up with the Roland RD-2000.

It seemed to have everything I could ask for, plus it looks great! So I tried several of them in different stores over a period of weeks. It is indeed an awesome instrument, and I can see many reasons for its popularity.

But somehow, I just didn’t fall in love. I won’t go into detail on that, because the details don’t matter. It was like going out with the prettiest girl in school, only to find out you have nothing in common.

The CP88 wasn’t love at first sight. My first impression was the control panel looked kind of busy and cluttered, and kind of limited at the same time. The small sound library was a concern. I didn’t want to give up “modern” functionality for “retro” styling.

But I finally decided to really sit down and PLAY the thing. After a few minutes, I knew it was the one for me. I’ve been playing it pretty much nonstop since I bought it, and rather than exhausting the possibilities, I’m actually seeing more than I did at first.

There’s a lot of complex functionality “under the hood” that hasn’t gotten much attention. For example, you can easily map almost all the knobs and switches to your VST/AU synths to control them remotely, layer them onto the keyboard, and mix them into the audio signal from the CP88, all through a single USB cable.

But the main thing is this is a PLAYER’S instrument. It will bring out the best in you.

This keyboard has superb action. I mean, the keybed is simply amazing. I was contemplating buying the Nord Piani 4 or Piano 3, but ultimately chose this because it was much more reasonably priced, and because there’s an additional zone for extra layering vs.

the Nord. I also LOVE the piano sounds on this much better than the Nord. The only thing that gave me pause before buying this keyboard is that it does have a limited sound selection, compared to, say, a Roland RD 2000.

But every single one of the sounds included are excellent and usable, unlike other boards that come with 1000 sounds, of which you end up using only 10 on a regular basis anyway. Also, Yamaha provides updates to the OS, which gave me comfort that the library will expand over time.

I think it’s important to keep in mind that this board was probably created to compete with other stage pianos used primarily for gigs, not with workstations designed primarily for the studio. The best thing about this keyboard for me is how little menu-diving I need to do.

Everything control I could possibly need is right there at my finger tips, easily adjustable with a nob, flick of a switch, or press of a button. For a gigging musician, or a pianist who wants a realistic-feeling and sounding keyboard to play at home, and you hate menu-diving, this thing is hard to beat, man.

Simple, intuitive, sturdy, lightweight, and it looks so darn good!.

Keys weighted like a piano and decent sound. Only one pedal supplied unless go for option supplied with stand. No obvious way to flip quickly between voice selections other than going up or down through list.

Quite thick in dimension. But for this price great quality and recommended.

I got this as a replacement for a Yamaha ypg-235, and I am very happy with my purchase. The main piano sample sounds beautiful, especially through a nice set of headphones or an amp. The action on the keys makes playing a joy, and the dynamic responsiveness of the piano gives ample room for subtlety of expression.

I think it is still a great choice for anyone who is looking to get more seriously into piano, even in 2021. The focus is very much on the piano itself, and you can tell that Kawai put a lot of thought into the instrument in that respect.

If you are looking for lots of voices, look elsewhere, but if you are looking for a solid entry-level practice instrument with a focus on the piano sound, you can’t go wrong with this.

I was looking for a digital piano keyboard to setup in my study for refreshing piano skills and practicing/playing without disturbing others at home, even though we have a grand piano in the living room.

After much research into options I chose the Kawai ES110. It’s very reasonably priced, and it has a magnificent sound (especially through headphones, but its speakers are quite good too). It has a more realistic touch than many others and you feel much more like you are at an acoustic piano keyboard.

I’m completely satisfied with this purchase and as always B&H shipped promptly. It is packed extremely well by Kawai. It would be a great digital piano for a beginner or early intermediate player. Kawai has a real winner on this one, and so do I!.

I took me several months to try out the Yamaha 125, Roland FP 30x, and the Kawai ES110, especially since Kawai electric pianos were rare and the Roland FP30x were sold out in most music stores. I ended up getting the kawaii ES 110 after trying it out at a small piano store (they miraculously had a model available) because it had the best action and the keys feel extremely good to play.

The sound is amazing. the only small con I have is the sustain pedal makes some sort of wispy-whoosh noise when you press down on it while using headphones. without headphones you don’t hear that whoosh sound and it sounds really amazing.

I didn’t get some of the reviews complaining about the speaker system on this piano. it simply sounds beautiful.

I purchased the RP-701 in White, as an Open Box item listed here on Guitar Center’s site. I’ve owned a Yamaha Clavinova for about 5 years, which I love, but purchased this Roland for my mom’s apartment so I could play the piano while I’m visiting.

This is an amazing digital piano. I visited the Roland booth at the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in 2018 and played their Kiyola digital piano, which is very similar to this model, and was impressed back then with the quality.

Just recently, I remembered playing that piano at CES and looked up Roland’s digital pianos and found this one. While the RP-701 does require some assembly, and must be done with two people, it took us about 15 minutes to put together (attaching the legs, pedal board, back piece, music stand, and assemble piano bench).

I was originally considering the light oak, but the white was in stock, and it looks absolutely beautiful. In terms of sound quality, the RP-701 is amazing. The Roland SUPERNATURAL action of the keys is eerily similar to an acoustic piano.

It actually feels like there are real piano strings reverberating as I hit the keys. To be honest, I prefer the action of this Roland more than my Yamaha Clavinova. I’ve played the piano for almost 30 years now, and have taught privately for about 20 years, and I’m extremely impressed with the quality of this product.

It was also 1/4 of the price of what I paid for my Yamaha Clavinova, too. While this piano doesn’t have wheels, it’s light enough to be carried by two people and moved if necessary, however, I wouldn’t move it around often – the legs may loosen.

Aside from that, the white wood finish of this piano is stunning. It looks very similar to a compact-sized Spinet piano. It looks beautiful in my mom’s living room. The variety of piano/synth/organ/etc.

sounds is impressive. The digital display and power buttons are also very sleek and elegant, and quite intuitive. The music stand also has little plastic pegs that pop up, intended to keep sheet music in place.

I really appreciate little details like that. I’ve had this piano for about a week, and playing it has brought me so much joy. I hope that these will be back in stock soon so that more people can order them and enjoy them in their homes.

The piano also has Bluetooth connectivity, so users can pair their smartphone or tablet to the piano and play music through its speakers. I haven’t tried that yet, but that’s a nice feature to have – it goes beyond just being a digital piano.

My Yamaha Clavinova CLP-585 doesn’t have that. This is an affordable alternative to an acoustic piano and I’m really blown away by the superior quality. Really impressive job, Roland. Thank you.

Watched many review views and really liked the Roland RP701 for its sound and looks. I was not comfortable spending this much on other online retailers but trusted B&H with this type of order. The piano only has a few screws and steps, installation took about an hour.

The rosewood is almost black but with a wood texture. Really beautiful finish. It was shipped very quickly and was very well packaged – lots of sturdy cardboard and some styrofoam. I am an adult beginner and the keys feel very close to a classical grand piano.

I love that it has so many ports and combines a classical feel with the comforts of 2022 technology, even supporting two pairs of headphones at the same time. It also comes with Bluetooth connections for both in and out.

It fits great in small spaces and doesn’t need to disturb the neighbours. It has many modes, even songs in its memory, has a metronome and it can be used as a very cool Bluetooth speaker. The mobile app from Roland is probably not the best, but you can use other apps.

I did lot of research for electronic piano for my son. Narrowed down Yamaha P-125 and Roland CS-30X, and then finalized Yamaha P-125 after reading lots of reviews. The piano is light weight, so easily portable.

Sound is great, clear and loud at max volume also. I am glad with the purchase. The accessories provided by Adorama with this piano are of good quality. Specially the sustain pedal and headphones :).
