Strengths & limits
In its favour
- Full 88-key range with powerful 20-watt speakers
- Adjustable touch response, 12 sounds
- Very cheap entry into the full key count
Against it
- “Hammer action” per spec sheet – plays much lighter than the Japanese actions; we don’t count it in the hammer class
- For serious piano learning we advise one class up
