Casio CDP-S100BKC5 Full Weighted Hammer Action Digital Piano with Wood Frame Stand

We are delighted with this product, it is working well and giving enormous pleasure.

I have been using the keyboard for a year now, so I am ready to write a review. The keyboard has a slim and sleek profile, the action feels pretty nice and I like the construction. There isn't that much to write about a keyboard physically, but it does the job.Where it falls short is the sound quality. It doesn't even sound close to a real piano, the sound is tinny, lacks any emotion and sounds like a cheap toy keyboard for a child. That being said, no cheap digital pianos have amazing sound, so that's why I won't tear into the sound quality too much because at this price range, poor sound is a given. Competitors like a Yamaha at this price range don't have good sound either, none of them do. Any keyboard under £1000 will fall short in the sound department. Also, the pedal that comes with the keyboard is rubbish. I would advise buying a better Casio compatible one off Amazon for under £10.The solution to this is simple. I purchased software called Piantoteq 7 which cost about £100, and then used it with this keyboard. Now it does sound like a real grand piano, and in total including this keyboard and the software, I spent about £400. That is a bargain for a setup that ends up sounding close to a grand piano. As a midi input device, this keyboard is well worth a purchase. I would not recommend buying it if you are planning to just use the onboard sound as it will disappoint you.
