Unbeatable performance, unbelievable price
When inspiration strikes, take a seat at the latest model in Roland's renowned FP piano series; the entry-level FP-10. This affordable digital piano is always ready to play, with a reassuringly authentic feel from the 88-note PHA-4 Standard keyboard, joined by Roland's evocative SuperNATURAL piano tones through onboard speakers or headphones.
With its portable, space-saving design, the FP-10 is the ideal instrument for home use, whether you're practicing techniques in the spare room or giving performances in the living room. Plus, with Bluetooth connectivity and powerful onboard features not offered by any other digital model at this price, the FP-10 is the ideal second piano for more experienced players.
Connect to the music with expressive PHA-4 keyboard
Playing piano is all about expression. The FP-10's PHA-4 Standard keyboard delivers the responsive feel of a fine acoustic piano, with every nuance whether you play hard or soft captured by Roland's touch-detection technology. With high-resolution sensing and escapement for fast key repetition, the PHA-4 keyboard faithfully translates into sound the subtlest differences in dynamics and tone.
The attention to detail continues as you notice a heavier hammer-weight in the low registers and a lighter one in the highs. Touch the white keys and you'll be convinced by a revolutionary moisture-absorbing material that recreates the natural texture and tactile feel of real ivory - and for expressive pedaling techniques such as half-pedaling, simply connect the optional DP-10 pedal.
Authentic sound to engage beginners and inspire professionals
You'll find other instruments in the FP-10's price band - but none with piano tone in the same league. Roland's SuperNATURAL sound engine delivers authentic piano tone that feels expressive and alive, whether you're a beginner learning core techniques or an experienced player who demands detailed articulation and response. The dynamic piano sound comes flooding into your room via powerful o

Really torn between this and the Costco FP-2-ACR bundle.
The pedal that comes with either of these would need to be replaced with a proper full-action pedal.
I don't need a bench.
The stand with Costco one is nice, but I can buy a sufficiently heavy duty stand for about $50.
So my math is:
420 + 50 (pedal) + 50 (stand) = 520 for this deal
or
550 + 50 (pedal) = 600 for the Costco deal.
Thoughts?
Seems that Costco has a little bit upgraded version of FP10. More polyphony, perhaps something else. No hassle return, almost endless warranty (ethical question of course). I had X-stand when I had FP10 and I wish I had a furniture like stand. Pedal is junk. I'm on the fence too as which one to prefer. Costco to my opinion is better in general.

I just returned FP-10 (FRP-1) to Costco and got FP-10-ACR (FRP-2-ACR) from them instead. There is literally no information about the difference, so I could only know after buying the new version and comparing.
Besides the basically unlimited Costco warranty that allows you to upgrade at any time, the new version has 128-voice polyphony vs 96, upgraded tones (different defaults on the piano — a custom Costco set, and upgraded sounds, e.g. amazing new Pad sounds — try dual with E.Piano for some Zelda lullaby or DK underwater theme!), works with the new Roland mobile app that is more modern and functional, but also allows you as the old app to have many more additional sounds (like FP-30) and use the piano in 4 modes including split etc., 1 year of Roland Cloud, and a new music rest (the flat and slippery bottom of the old one was a disaster, I used clips on it to hold books and sheet music). This is about it in terms of the difference with FP-10 v1.
Surprisingly, this deal is still active. If you search for the FP-10 on Adorama's site it comes up for $579 on sale from $599.99. But if you follow the link in this thread, it still comes up $419. I ordered one for a Christmas gift for one of my kids, and it just arrived today.
I don't think there's anything else that really approaches this for $420. I was about to buy the Casio CDP-S110 for $400 before I saw this deal. The Casio is fine for the price, but from everything I've seen, the Roland has superior key action for a more realistic piano feel. I could also hear a marked difference watching videos of the two pianos. While the Casio sometimes sounds artificial, the Roland just sounds like a really nice acoustic piano.

It would be good for your posture etc.
Good deal at Costco (if you have membership) and it is a slight "upgrade" from OP model. The deal is valid 10/25/23 through 11/27/23.
It's a good starting piano as well as portable piano for more advanced players.
The reviews that I have read are solid.

Nobody selling used on reverb.com or goodwillfinds.com to compare used prices.
But like any electronic keyboard, research the specs, find similar models above this and check prices. Sometimes, you can get more for the same price.

Saw a woman returning a meat processor, probably from the 80s and Costco accepted the return.
