Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nice for informal learning and practicing but...
I took 16 years of classical piano training and bought this keyboard to record accompaniments to vocal music for use in vocal training. My review consists of initial impressions on how the product measures up to my particular need:

Ease of use - as with other all-in-one electronic keyboards, the keyboard works when you turn it on with no adjustments. If you want to do ANYTHING other than use it in default mode, then the user guide must be consulted.

Similarity to an acoustic piano - keys are not weighted, 12 keys are missing as compared to an acoustic, and the keys are mighty slippery. I find my fingers slipping off the black notes quite a bit.

Features - the features of this piano seem geered toward a novice learner. The auto accompaniment feature and ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great For What It Is
Overall I am happy with my purchase. I should preface my remarks by saying that I am no piano or keyboard artist, but I do play trombone in a big band, sing in an a cappella group, and do some arranging and writing as well as perform in many community theater musical productions, so I am no stranger to music. I own a grand piano in addition to this keyboard.

I got this to replace an 18 year old Clavinova that finally died after hours upon hours of usage, and constant misuse by four children. The action on this keyboard is not ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great portable piano replacement
After taking lessons for 10 years, and then taking about 5 years off from playing, I finally realized how much I truly enjoyed playing piano. Unfortunately, it's at a time when I am across the country from my lovely Yamaha digital piano and live in a tiny studio where a full size piano just wouldn't work, even if I could afford it. After much research and trying out different models at local stores, I chose the YPG-225 based on the touch sensitivity of the keys (not as great as a digital piano or regular piano, but perfectly adequate for say the hobbyist or amateur), the 76 keys (still small enough to fit in my apartment, but big enough to not cut off too much from my music) and the sound quality (very, very good for a portable keyboard). I haven't tried some of the features yet, such as the compatibility ... Read More
