Weighted Keys Piano Recommendations
Which weighted keys piano would we recommend? We get a lot of questions from our students about which weighted keys piano we would recommend, so we wanted to do a blog post on it. Chuck and I had two different weighted keys pianos, so we did a lot of research on this. They were all very different in sound quality and touch.Here is what we would recommend, depending on your budget.
#1 - Yamaha YDP103 Arius Series Piano with Bench, Black Walnut $899 - This is the one before leaving for Full Time RVing and we had and loved it!!! We would still have it if we didn't live in an RV.
#2 - The ONE Smart Piano, Weighted 88-Key Digital Piano, Grand Graded Hammer-Action Keys Upright Piano-Matte Black - $1199 This one has great reviews and has a USB (read the description and reviews this seems pretty awesome)
#3 - Yamaha DGX660B 88-Key Weighted Digital Piano & Furniture Stand with BB1 Padded Wooden Piano Bench - Black - $879 Check out the foot pedal on this one. This one has way more bells and whistles but doesn't have the three-foot pedals attached.
#4 - Donner DDP-100 88-Key Weighted Action Digital Piano, Beginner Bundle with Furniture Stand, Power Adapter, Triple Pedals, MP3 Function, Black - $759 Has the weighted keys and 3 pedals. Good Reviews, but they won't sound and feel as good as the Yamaha.
#5 - LAGRIMA 88 Full Weighted Hammer Heavy Action Key Digital Piano, USB/MIDI/Headphone/Mic/Audio Output Feature, Suit for Kids, Teen, Adult, Beginner or Training Institution - $386 Keys not weighted and only two pedals. Good Reviews but won't sound and feel as good as the Yamaha.
