I ordered this small 76-key, digital piano because the rooms in my house are quite small and space is a real issue for me. I truly wanted a real piano with 88 keys; however, there was no way I could find a space for it. I had given up ever having a piano when Amazon.com flashed a group of digital pianos for sale on a screen I was viewing. I scrolled through them and noticed a few that had 76 keys and measured approximately 45 inches in length. I measured the spaces in my house and found my house could accommodate this 45-inch long instrument. Also, I could not afford to pay more than $300 for a piano; this one along with the piano stand and adapter sold, with tax, for less than $300. So I decided to take a chance and order it.
I literally fell in love with it the moment I turned it on and discovered that it plays 574 different voices. For the piano voices, I found 3 different voices for grand piano; 3 for bright piano, 4 for harpsichord, 3 for honky tonk, one for MIDI Grand, and one for CP80, and many more choices for various E Piano voices, which I have little interest in. As I studied the voice list in the manual, I found bagpipe, 4 different harpsichord voices, and 2 different harp voices--voices I also very much enjoy. (There are hundreds of other instrument voices, which I have no interest in and will not discuss here.) Anyway, I feel like I am in heaven. I did discover that the harpsichord voices play louder than the grand piano voices. Therefore, if you want the piano to play louder than the voice you select plays, just select another voice--for another voice may play louder. This instrument does have a volume control knob, which turns from quiet to loud and it has a plug for earphones.
I also fell in love with the touch response choices. About 20 years ago, I had a severe case of carpal tunnel syndrome which incapacitated me for two years. I have since fully recovered but have weakened hands. So I discovered that I can set this instrument for soft touch response, and this option produces relatively high volume even with light playing strength, which works perfectly for my weakened hands. For someone with undamaged hands, there are three other touch options: Medium, Hard, and Fixed. I do not know what weighted keys feel like; so I cannot tell you if the keys are weighted or not; but the touch is definitely adjustable to fit personal touch preferences.
The size of this instrument is perfect for a small room, for the length is only 44.5 inches. The stand is adjustable for height. It can be lowered to fit a young, small, short child or it can be lifted to fit a very tall adult. It has a circular piece of metal covered with holes. To adjust the height of the stand, you just turn this circular plate and place and tighten a very long screw in whichever hole you select (maybe a bolt--I don't know the names of very many mechanical things).
The weight of the instrument is perfect for me, also, for I have a weakened lower back and struggle to lift anything over 20 pounds. This light weight instrument allows me to easily move it from room to room if I wish. And if I decide to adjust the height of the stand, I can easily pick the piano up and move it to a safe place while I adjust the stand.
I also discovered that digital piano requires no tuning--because it has no strings--it plays recorded sounds somehow placed in it when it is manufactured. So this should save me about $200 a year in tuning sessions I will not need for this digital machine.
So if you have weak hands or wrists, cannot lift anything very heavy, have limited space to place a piano in your house, and have limited funds to spend, you will not be disappointed if you purchase this instrument.

Amazing keyboard/Piano!!
I bought this as a family gift for me, my husband and 3 boys for Christmas and it’s been great so far. For the money you are not going to get total weighted keys so this was next best as the feature to make the resistance a bit harder or lighter is great for switching between our 3 year old and 13 year old sons and when we play.I took pics of a lot of the setting that it has because there are SO many. And way more than pictured. Any sound you can think of as well as a lot of other cool features.We Love that it plugs right into the wall with the INCLUDED plug.The Speakers are plenty loud enough for us.Yamaha is a great solid brand all around and I see us having this piece for a long time to come. It’s been a great addition to the other instruments we own.
