 Just what we were looking for February 6, 2010

For a kids exploratory toy this is fantastic. Loads of options for somebody that has never had a keyboard. Good sound for the price!
fun to play February 1, 2010

bought this keyboard for my 3 year old granddaughter. it is a bit complicated for a 3 year old but she did find that by pushing the buttons she could get different sounds. she loves it and she is introduced to the world of making music. hopefully this will bloom into piano lessins at some time. grandma likes to play with it too.
 Its ok for young kids January 12, 2010

I bought this Keyboard for my Son for his 9th birthday. My Son is almost 12yrs old, and even though
it has three missing keys he still plays it sometimes. He is a drummer by nature but likes to play it sometimes.
My 2yr old likes to play with it too. I would recommend it for kids between the ages of 2yr-9yr's of age.
Is not all that and size is small. The sounds are not that realistic either.Is good if they just want to play for fun.
better keyboard than I thought -- and an earphone jack too! January 11, 2010

I ordered this keyboard for my nine year old for Christmas, and was pleasantly surprised when we pulled it out of the box. It has a nice sound (not just a "toy" keyboard sound) and the instruments are pretty authentic given the size and price of the thing. Yes, it is a little loud, but I think that is because it defaults to the "5" (out of 10) setting each time it is turned on. The fact that this keyboard plays up to four notes in a chord was one of the main reasons I chose this item over others out there, and it does a good job. The keys have a nice touch and there are enough of them that you can play a decent array of songs without running out of keys (thought middle C is pretty far to the right of the keyboard, so there are more "left hand" notes than "right hand" ones, if you know what I mean.)
Contrary to what the product description says THERE IS AN EARPHONE JACK ON THE BACK OF THIS INSTRUMENT (at least there was on mine) and I am glad for that since my sons haven't stopped playing on it since Christmas (and it is now mid-January and we've been snowed in together most of that time, so quiet toys are at a premium!) The first round of batteries are all holding up well too, after a month of non-stop music. :) There is no AC adapter in the box, but you can purchase one separately if you need one.
Don't have much to criticize in this purchase -- I could have done without the "headset microphone" (it has just become a way to amplify the kids' silly moods), but that's not the end of the world. The LCD screen display is handy, but my son (who is a beginner piano student) was confused by why sometimes the black keys show up as sharps and sometimes they show up as flats -- haven't figured out the rhyme or reason to that one yet. I thought it would indicate sharp if you were moving up on the scale or flat when you were moving down, but instead it is kind of hit-and-miss.
Overall, I'm really glad I went with this keyboard over a few of the others I looked at on Amazon and other places. I'm a musician and music teacher myself and I was pretty picky about this purchase. I am happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised. Hope you will be too.
Great little keyboard January 11, 2010
Very picky shopper (Newtown, CT)
I bought this keyboard for my daughter's seventh birthday. She loves music and sings all the time. This keyboard is perfect for her. It's easy to use, lightweight, and has a decent sound. My two older children, both teenagers, have had fun playing with this keyboard also. I would probably look for something more substantial for an adult or advanced musician, but for our family's needs this keyboard is perfect and the price was very reasonable. I intended to order the power cord, too, but the batteries haven't run out yet and I might just stick with them since it's more convenient. I do appreciate that the power cord option is available.
