So many complaints about a $50 keyboard with stand and seat not being top of the line. I guess it's not a deal if it's not an $800 Porsche. Probably still complain about the gas mileage on that too.

Even if so, the bench alone cannot be found for less than $20. Not on Amazon, not CL.

I have my own digital piano already, but frankly to include the stand, keyboard, and bench for $50 this seems like an incredible deal.
·
As far as the incentivized reviews on Walmart's site, I believe that's part of the Walmart Spark program where people get free products in exchange for a review, so you're correct there - however, while I can't speak for this particular product, Alesis is a well known brand.

As far as the post, yeah, that's kind of SD's thing, they make their money from being affiliates and hijacking click-thrus on each deal post and posting sponsored "deals". Personally, I find staff posts to typically be a bit more in the lukewarm category, but without these "promotions" if you will, we wouldn't have this site.

Edit: Also, upon looking up this particular model, it may be a lower end model made exclusively for Walmart. The only places I see information on it are Walmart, Alesis's website and other deal sites. Is it a deal? It's hard to say for certain, but it doesn't pass the sniff test, that's for sure. I'd be wary.

Quote from romanstnt :
The keys are not weighted, no. If you want to learn piano properly, don't get this. If you want a quick intro to music, rhythm and chording, this is a sufficient creative outlet.

This is correct. This is basically a toy. It is not touch sensitive to allow for dynamics (loud and soft with the fingers) nor are the keys weighted for better control.

This serves its purpose to see if my 12 year old will actually want to learn before spending $300 on a top of the line model.
I was looking at this one at $110 and kicking around buying it. For $50 it's a no brainer. Not everybody is coming here for the top of the line stuff. It's obviously gonna be a get what you pay for scenario and I'm 100% fine with it.

Can you reuse the bench for another piano if I decide to get a better one down the road? Or is it pretty much only meant for this size piano.

Pulled the trigger on this. I was debating on getting this for my 3 year old when it was at regular price. But at this price, it a no brainer. Thanks!

If you're an adult and really want to get into piano, B&H has the Alesis pro which has 88 weighted keys, pedal, stand & bench and is a really solid product for $400 down from $510.

Just picked this up for the husband. The Costco Roland offer was a bit too pricy for a potential temporary hobby haha.

At minimum, this seems like a really good value for someone getting into playing piano/keyboard to see if it's something to take seriously or not. We bought a Casio 44-key keyboard for my 6 yo daughter a few months ago before she started her piano lessons for $60. This would've been preferred as a starter kit as it has a bench, stand, music holder, and accessories.

This is exactly why I made the purchase. I don't mind paying for lessons or some thing else if I know it's going to be utilized.

I realize the strong appeal of the price, but in my opinion buying this keyboard to see if your kid likes it is not much different than buying a plastic guitar from the toy section to see if they like playing string instruments. I suppose you can use it to learn the notes (Hey, I found middle C!) but without weighted keys, they can learn more bad habits than good ones.

NOT following this type of advice has led me down at least three different rewarding, lifetime hobbies. One of which is now my career.

I'd rather have my kid learn a bad piano habit than a good Roblox habit. Hell I'd be happy with chopsticks. laugh out loud

Are you serious? You can do whatever you want with the bench. It's a bench

Great deal. My 7 year old has this and uses it for piano practice. The bench and stand are a must for proper posture. Beats getting "creative" lol.
