Hello!

My 5 years old kid has been taking piano lessons for a few months and he seems to enjoy it.

I’m thinking of buying a piano for him so that he can practice at home. However, I don’t know much about pianos and I’m not sure what to buy.

I’m looking at digital pianos mostly since they look cheaper and I don’t have much space at home anyway. I did a bit of research on the internet and I understand I should be getting one with weighted keys. Beside that, I don’t know what brand or model to pick.

Do you have any piano recommendation for a kid who is just getting started?

Thanks!

    Thanks a lot for the detailed answer. Well noted on the X shaped stand, I’ll get piano that comes with a proper frame. I think I’ll go down to that store over the weekend and try those Casio PX.

      Just a quick note: There is a new Casio design piano (PX-S7000) that costs around 2500. I tried it today and to be frank, it doesn’t bring that much more to the table compared to the USD 500 PX-S1100, so I would not recommend it unless your have extra cash and design is something you value above all else. Good luck finding a good instrument!
