I would keep waiting just a bit longer, if and when we get a new model in this bracket, they'll have to drop it further.

There are plenty of other options though. Contrary to popular belief, there is very minimal performative difference between a budget vs expensive piano if you go the Slickdeal route, get yourself some speakers and an amp.

In a sort of press keys get noise sure. If you want to mimic an accoustic though there's a very significant difference.

I bought this digital piano for my mother, a retired classical piano teacher, back in November (for $100 more) due to her moving to a condo and unable to have a real piano. She is typically very picky but she really enjoys this instrument! It is a great digital piano at its price point. When we bought it in November there was a backorder that delayed delivery by a week, otherwise no issues with Adorama.

Bought this same piano during the last sale. I have no regrets. Keys feel great. So many piano sounds. It has an app that you connect via Bluetooth and can play songs. Overall, still very happy with my purchase. I play it almost every other day.

Picked this up a few weeks ago at the same price.

I'm very happy with it. It's solid, sturdy, and it feels and plays like a real piano.

nothing beats yamaha clavinova CVP in terms of sound and feel, though they're at least 3x more depending on model

Digital pianos have come a really long way. I feel the vast majority of pianists, including advanced classical pianists, would be satisfied with this piano for their home instrument. Imo, from a sound and feel perspective, you'd have to be a real audiophile or pro for the value proposition to be worth it to upgrade to the next level.

Any experience with the rosewood color? The preview images look almost black. What is it actually like in person? Would it clash with black wood furniture?

It's fairly dark reddish. It's my preferred color to be honest. I've seen it in person. I used to have a CA79 in that color.

It's a little lighter than "almost black". You can definitely see that's it's a dark brown with a dark red/maroon tint. I wouldn't say it would clash since it has that dark wood look, but I'm no interior designer.
