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!

    The Korg B2 is another popular choice for beginners. Never tried one myself so I can’t say much past that.

    Generally, any quality digital piano such as the ones you’ve been looking at will last quite a few years, given that you care for it properly.

    Edit: About maintenance, there’s hardly much you’ll have to do beyond just cleaning the pianoand making sure not too much dust accumulates (I recommend just covering the keybed with a large sheet) Issues with the internals should be taken back for potential warranty claims.
