Customer Rating: Summary: Loving it Comment: I'm 24, learning to play the piano. I wanted a keyboard that had touch-sensitive keys (louder when you hit them harder)... that was my main requirement.
After looking at a few keyboards and messing around with a few demos on display, I purchased this one. The price was less than most keyboards that have these features, and the quality of the keys is actually better than more expensive keyboards I looked at.
I can't comment on the recording/playback and lessons etc, but I can say that the sound quality is surprisingly good, the voices, styles and other interesting options are all top notch as far as I can tell.
If I had to make a complaint about the keyboard, it's only this: there is a very slight hiss from the speakers that's only audible when you're in a perfectly silent room and not playing anything... but it's VERY faint, even air coming from your central air vents is enough to hide the sound. And it's entirely possible that my keyboard had a manufacturing problem. It's not an issue though.
I'm very pleased with my purchase, and probably won't outgrow this keyboard anywhere in the near future. Also the keyboard looks nice, and has basic features that many people might want like headphone output, midi output, foot pedal input, etc. Customer Rating: Summary: Nice Keyboard for my daughter Comment: This seems to be a great keyboard for my 6yr old daughter. She has just started Piano lessons and is really into them. This Yamaha was at a great price point and is one that i am told she will be able to use for several years to come. Typical Yamaha quality and build - solid and well made. I bought this over a few other similar models as it came with the power adapter and the "piano" mode so that when you strike a key soft or hard it is like a piano in that the sound producesd is more realistic and louder or softer... Customer Rating: Summary: yamaha keyboard Comment: Great starter keyboard for my 7 year-old. Her teacher was impressed with price and features. It's light weight and easy to move, yet sturdy with stand(this was extra but worth it). The adapter was well worth too. Great buy for the money. Customer Rating: Summary: it's a good value Comment: Although we paid more than the price for entry level keyboards this one seems to be the real deal. It is larger than we expected it to be and it has lots of synthesizer type capabilities. They're all pretty easy to access and the sound coming out of the two speakers is really pretty good.
So -- bottom line -- you're not going wrong with this one. Customer Rating: Summary: Great product, but there's cheaper ones here... Comment: This is a perfect keyboard, BUT the other amazon page titled "Yamaha ypt-310" (without AD) is more cheaper. I got mine for $120 AND i got an adapter AND stand
