Yamaha 61-Key Portable Keyboard for Beginners with Built-In Songs, Quiz Mode, Music Rest, with Power Adapter YPT280

We bought this for our daughter for Christmas. We wanted to start her with a real keyboard that would last as she got older but also was a bit simpler with fewer than 88 keys. This was the perfect choice. Its weight is enough to feel sturdy, but not burdensome to have simply sitting on your lap. The speakers sound clear and crisp. The quiz functions are fun and educational. It takes batteries or plugs into the wall. I found the batteries to last a relatively long time considering it only takes AA batteries. It feels like a quality purchase for any beginner, and has inspired my wife to try to learn as well. The navigation of the various songs and styles is a bit odd, but is well documented and becomes very easy after using it a bit.

Perfect first keyboard for a music fan. Great value, quality and sound. Battery or power cord. So light and portable. Highly recommend.

Great sound. Good for beginners

Purchased this keyboard for my children to learn piano. My children use the grand piano function and it sounds good and plays well. The keys are not weighted and it is light enough to move it around if needed. The first keyboard we received had a faulty key. We requested for a replacement and have not had any problems with the replacement keyboard.

Great keyboard. Well worth it!

This was a suprize gift from us to our kid. being around 11 year, was not surre what to gift. Gadgets keeps them glued to screen which i did not wanted. with no prior knowledge of playing an musical instrument, initially we were sceptical to buy this. But turned out to be the best gift ever we have purchased.The kid likes it a lot, spend more quality time on the Piano and have been playing many many songs on this. the keys are super and being semi-weighted the sound is super clear. And with multiple mode the kids will enjoy more. woudl highlight recommend

Affordable and a great help to me in my music endeavors without a bunch of things I don't need. Very easy to use and the sound is really good.

My son used to have a small kids keyboard that eventually broke. He had out grown it anyway so for his birthday we decided to get him a major upgrade. We decided on this one because of the reviews and I like the shape of it a lot. I felt like it looked professional but kid friendly. There are lots of setting for different sounds that my son loves to experiment with. My son even taught himself a version of “the wedding song” it wasn’t perfect but it was pretty dang close. I was super impressed. I think it’s also a good thing to teach responsibility. It’s nice enough that he takes pride in taking care of it but not so expensive that if something happened to it, it would be devastating. Also would like to mention that with batteries and daily use it lasted for well over 5 months before we needed new batteries.
