Assembly

The piano comes flat-packed and is very easy to assemble. The electronics and keyboard are fixed in - all you have to do is assemble the stand. There are only 4 screws that fix the stand to the keyboard and 4 more to fix the stand together.

Customer comment:  “I'm pretty useless at fixing a simple Argos draw together, but thanks to the easy-to-follow instructions in the box, I didn't have any problem assembling this piano.” Gary, Aldershot.

I do advise two people to do the job though - purely because of the keyboard's weight - It is heavy and safer to have a helping hand when lifting it on to the stand.

Questions

Hello, I have a query regarding which digital piano to buy and wonder if you can help.

My 8 year daughter has been learning for a year and her teacher wants her to start working towards exams. To date she has been using a keyboard, but now we need pedals so we need a piano. We live in a very small house with limited space and most of the available space for a piano is going to be too near a radiator for an acoustic. We also have a limited budget.

I am considering the Yamaha CLP 220 or the Yamaha YDP 131. The main thing we are after is that the instrument should feel as much like a piano as possible – so whilst it would be great to get excellent sound quality this is secondary to the feel of the keyboard and pedals at the moment.  Both these models say they have a graded hammer action keyboard, but I was wondering whether there is a big difference between the YDP 131 and the CLP 220 re the keyboard and pedals? As there is a nearly £200 price difference I would not want to pay the higher figure if I was paying just for improvement in sound or other technical specifications. Any advice gratefully received.

Thanks, Linda Skilbeck, Kingston, Surrey

Reply/ Hi Linda

The difference in the sound and touch is only slight.

The main difference is the speaker size, as you will see from the following comparison.
