Check YouTube for Casio flawed action. This affects the PX-S1000 series and PX-S3000 series. They shortened the keybed so that the keyboard depth is tiny, but in doing so, they changed the leverage point and made the tops of the keys way harder to press than the bottoms. Worse, to try and cope with that, they made the black keys lighter to press than the white keys. Content creators that have pointed this out have been harassed, and you'll find a bunch of shills on YouTube who say how great the piano is, including a few overproduced videos by literal virtuosos who would make any keyboard sound good. But in my experience, the action really is flawed.

I ignored this, and didn't think I'd feel the difference; I reasoned that I don't usually hit the tops of the keys with my fingers, and that this guy was being picky. I got the PX-S3000 and LOVED the sounds. Almost every single sound on that board is amazing. After a while I noticed regular chords were harder to play, and realized that I actually do touch the tops of the keys more than I realized. Had a heck of a time trying to resell it and took a big loss selling it back on eBay.

Casio's previous keyboards never had this issue, and have been some of my favorite action on a piano style keyboard. There's always some level of compromise that digital keyboard manufacturers have to go through, in order for a keyboard with less than a foot depth feel like a real piano. Keybeds on a real piano extend way back, and this is why you'll never feel the difference playing the tips of the keys vs the tops of the keys. The fulcrum of the key is like a foot back. The only keyboard I've seen that replicates this is the 1985 Kurzweil Midiboard. These are amazing, but super heavy, and the 32 note polyphony will cut off even the most basic arpeggios if you are using the the sustain pedal.

In short, I'd avoid these until they fix the issue in a new series. I believe they know this is an issue but need to quietly sell off the remaining boards in this series.
Thanks for the link to a different, used model that isn't availble anymore. Really helpful.

I bought a Roland FP-E50 for my kids for Christmas and one downside is that it's a ridiculously chonky thing. As an adult, I can't fit my knees under it when it's mounted in the Roland stand with the Roland triple pedal. I wish it were svelte like this Privia. Good deal for $200 off—many folks like the Casio action.

I bought this keyboard for my kids who are late beginners at Sweetwater ebay store for 539 last year. It sounds much better than our previous Casio ( S150?) . I can't really play much piano but 192 polyphony ( Vs previous one's 64 polyphony ) makes a big difference Smilie. And I like it's light and slim, not as bulky as other models. I did want to to buy the Roland FP-30X but it wasn't on sale at the time. Also we already have the Casio 3 pedals (sp34) so it works for this new keyboard too Smilie. So yeah this is a really good price I think.

I have the S3000. I have been happy with it. Great lightweight slim design. The action is not bad, but the keys are a little harder to depress if you are touching them farther back. It's due to the smaller size thst they tried to fit everything into.

I really like the msin piano sound though. I've used it at gigs. Also great it can run on batteries or a smell AC power bank.

The touch controls work fine, but considering I'm losing my vision, I probably should have chosen a different keyboard, but at least I can always power it off and back on if I accidentally change settings.

That's the one I've been waiting on. I missed the last deal last year and haven't seen one since.

I picked one of these up a couple years ago for $500. This is the first time I've seen it lower.

You can search Reverb at any time for the same and similar models for bargains.

Clearly, someone here saw that amazing price and bought it before you did - that's all.

....

Unless buyers are itching for specifics - hyper realistic movements, high resolution recordings of master pianos like the casio celviano or better - most of these $500 range pianos newer and older are interchangeable.

Reminder to anyone getting itchy only for the price.

It's NOT the piano once you're past the $100~ level (for a used casio ct-s300).

Better putting that money into more lessons, piano apps, etc first.

Dangit. I did SO much research, and this was exactly the one I wanted...
I've been looking for ~$1000, VERY lightweight (this one is 24lbs or so? The lightest by a longshot), pitch wheel, full 88 keys, weighted, and with speaker. The series is the only thing even close, but there's no pitch wheel, there's less sounds (not that much of a deal breaker) and it's a good deal heavier.

I have a Privia PX-300, over 15 years old, ha. And she's done me well. Is the action similar to that one? Because that one seems okay to me. I'll be gigging with it a good deal.
