Eastar EP-150 88 Key Fully Weighted Digital Piano Graded Hammer Action Keyboard with Triple Pedal 128 Polyphony for Beginner Professional

Pros+ +I was very worried assembly might be difficult but it took about 20 minutes as most of the big parts are already pre-assembled, they just require connecting them together +The piano itself looks beautiful and is of very nice quality +The weighted keys are a nice touch at this pricepoint and they play on par with other Grand Pianos I have played on +The pedals work great and are easy to reach while playing Cons- -None so far, have been absolutely thrilled with this piano

This is an absolutely beautiful piano. Is the perfect accent to add beauty and style to any home. The piano was very easy to set up alone and the directions were precise and easy to read. This piano has a great quality and beautiful dark mahogany look wood not just wood with paneling/ stickers on it but actual wood. The keys are in fact full-size and weighted it and gives a grand piano feel. The foot pedal works very well to sustain the keys and the piano is the perfect height. It does require for it to be plugged up to use. The one issue I had with the piano causing it not to receive a perfect five star rating is that the back panel was packed damaged. But overall it is well worth the money.

Keyboards are something i have always been around and have owned most of my life. I am nearing over the hill - almost falling over- so there have been some years behind my exposure to electric keyboards. I have owned all of the regular kinds that hold titles of : weighted, semi weighted, hammer action, weight sensitive- etc. Those titles get thrown around a lot as selling points though are often misleading. While most musicians know an electric variation of a keyboard will never really mimic the real deal (meaning a stringed acoustic piano) there are options out there that not only come real close to the real deal but also are affordable. This super nice keyboard in a case from the Eastar brand is a nice example of an affordable keyboard that delivers the goods. I am familiar with the Eastar brand and also their keyboards. They offer super cheap option while at the same time have higher end things going on like this nice EP-150 series. Right off i love how this looks just like a vintage Hammond organ in that it has a top heavy piece that much larger than a regular portable keyboard. Then the quarter inch jack are on the bottom just like a home series Hammond. I know this keyboard is not an organ (though it does have an organ sound patch),but it has that same design. I am impressed with the built in speakers which i initially though i would disregard. They actually are great for practicing and they give off a nice full sound that can really become the dominant presence in a room. I was at first worried about assembling this when it arrived. I felt like the box was well over a hundred pounds, though is was easy to drag or move around due to its rectangular shape. I soon found out there was nothing to worry about and this can be set up with one person fairly easily. It is really just four steps with the first things you do being to connect the two sides along with the bottom bar that has the pedals on them. You then attach the bottom support board. Then you have to place the keyboard unit onto the frame. That is the only tricky part- i had to grab a flashlight and look for the receiving metal screw port to line it up to receive the hand turn style screw contraption. I love how there is a slide down keyboard cover. I like the ports on the back of the unit for connecting tablets or other devices. To summarize i a very happy with this keyboard and recommend it. UPDATE: I am switching the star rating from four to five due to my ongoing experimenting with this super neat keyboard. I really have noticed a depth in the piano sounds that seem to exceed my favorite keyboard i have owned for years. I now think i have found my new favorite. There really is a good selection of piano sounds for someone who i into jazz and classical or romantic/baroque music. The pedal works nicely and has that real piano feel.

Works great. Easy to use. Great appliance

Note: this item is very heavy, so most buyers will need a second person to help bring the package in and complete assembly. (It’s doable alone if you’re quite strong and have a healthy back/knees.) Total assembly time: 30-60 mins Tools: you’ll need a screwdriver The final product is attractive and heavyweight, with a great sound and perfectly weighted keys to create a realistic playing experience. There are several easy-to-use options like a metronome, several voices/instruments, and one heck of a demo. The cover slides easily and protects the keyboard, and the music stand operates efficiently and well—just lift, and the back support pops open! I made a quick video so you could hear some of the instruments and see how it looks. I hope this helps!

What a great piano for the kids to learn on. My first complaint which is minor (because I don’t use them much anyways) is the extra sound functions are just a number it will take some time to get them somewhat memorized to what’s what. Second I would like a headphone Jack right on the front . Over all the thing feels like a real piano. Which is the point of fully weighted keys. But for the price a good keyboard coast unless it also has weighted keys you might as well get something the looks and feels more like a traditional piano. And until the kids learn how to actually play the piano and show commitment I’m not spending a ton of money on something that’s going to collect dust. One day I’ll probably get something that is either a real baby grand or at least a electric one that completely mimics a real piano, until then this thing looks and sounds close enough that switching between this and a real piano will feel the same.

This is a deluxe electronic keyboard for home use. The piece weighs approximately 54”x32”x16” and weighs 100 lbs, so this is a keyboard that you install in one place in your house and leave it there. The keyboard has lots of great features including adjustable weight keys, 3 pedals, and jacks on the back for headphone out, ¼ aux in, and USB MIDI. The keyboard is powered by a proprietary cable and must be plugged in to work; it will shut off automatically after 30 minutes of non-use. Electronic functions include a built-in metronome, 20 different tones, sound effects include chorus and reverb, dual-keyboard function, and lots of demos. I am really enjoying exploring the possibilities of this keyboard. The keyboard is a lot bigger and a lot less portable than my previous 88-key keyboard, but it’s smaller than an upright piano and a lot easier to move, plus it doesn’t need to be tuned. I really like the adjustable weighting on the keys. I’m still experimenting to see what weighting works best for me. The pedals work well, and of course, it’s fun to play with the different tones like harpsichord and organ. The sound is quite good, and if you need more volume, you can always connect the keyboard to an external speaker, although I think it’s plenty loud enough as it is. The keyboard comes in a long heavy box that takes 2 people to manage. Assembling the keyboard only requires a screwdriver; we got ours together in about 20 minutes. Note that the keyboard doesn’t come with a bench, so you’ll need to pick up a bench separately. Overall, this is a great keyboard for family and home use.

Digital Piano 88 Key Fully-Weighted, Eastar EP-150 Keyboard Piano for Beginner&Professional, with Graded Hammer Action Weighted Keys, Triple Pedal, 128 Polyphony & Metronome, Black This digital piano is constructed well without being too heavy. I own two full size grand pianos from Yamaha and Baldwin, and an old digital piano from Kurzweil. For a family of five all who play at an advanced level, we ran this little one through the paces. It is a capable performer and allows for a reasonably level of expressivity. The weighting is significant, and that is a good thing. Also advertised as being graded, I disagree with that as I did not notice any discernable grading in the action at all. It's a low end digital piano so I decided to overlook that minor point. It's very easy to assemble. The triple pedals work exactly as one would expect. No half pedal feature here, though. I suppose that would be too much to ask for. The voices included are fun to play around with and it is possible to layer two voices for some creative play. The sound quality is mediocre but I don't think it would be fair to expect a stellar reproduction at this price point. Let's say that the most important takeaway point is that the piano samples are good and thus this digital piano sounds very much like a decent one. The built in speakers are only good for casual practice and thankfully there is a pair of 1/4" standard headphone jacks for private practicing. External speakers can be plugged into this which is good for getting a bit more sound quality out of it. With a good set of external speakers, the sound quality can be expanded quite a bit. Overall for the price, you get a ton of value out of this, and thankfully it a capable performer, within expectations.

Super easy to put together just a few screws and it's ready to be played. Customer service is amazing and handled my issue promptly. This fits perfectly in the room. My baby grand was too big for the space. This will last me a long time and I look forward to playing this every day. The sound quality and volume control is spot on. It is most definitely worth the money

There was some minor cosmetic damage caused during shipping but nothing that affected the keyboard itself. It sounds awesome. It’s clean, has weighted keys, a decent sound selection and it connects to the PC. Great keyboard for recording. Dampening pedals and sustain work great. With on the fly transpose and chorus. It matches the picture.

I'm not a pianist or an audiophile so I'm not an expert when it comes to my opinions on this. All I can say is we were all wowed by how awesome this piano turned out to be. Was definitely not expecting this. It's pretty heavy. I think the shipping weight said something like 100 lbs. It comes in a large, long box. Our box was pretty beat up but nothing was damaged inside. Everything inside the box is well-packed and protected. Not a whole lot of parts to put together. There's the keyboard itself, the beam with the feet on it, the back wall, and then there's the two side pieces and that's it. Super easy to assemble. Only hard part is putting the keyboard on top of the finished base because it's long, heavy and awkward to lift by myself. Asked the husband to help because you have to line up the screw holes as well (though they were easy to line up since it's pretty much just making sure the keyboard is flush with the base). After it's all assembled all you need to do is plug in the cord that runs to the feet, plug the power cord into the back of the piano, and finally plug the other end into the wall and you're done. Fire it up with the power button and be amazed at how well the stereo sound is! The keys are weighted and they sure do feel weighted. I haven't played on a real piano in so long I don't remember how heavy the keys felt. What I do know is that these definitely don't feel like light keyboard keys. The sheet music holder is pretty neat - you just lift up the plate and this little foot magically pops open so you can let go of the plate and it's at the perfect angle for you to read your music. Simply fold the foot back in and gently set the plate down to close. We haven't gotten a chance to try out all the settings and features, however, we did try the two music demos it has on it and they're wonderful. My kids like listening to one of the demos but I'm not sure what it is (I know, horrible description to include haha). If I figure out what it is I'll come back and update this review. I wish we had tried out more of the features of this piano before writing this review but we were all so excited that it worked so well (and looked so good) with just the piano setting that I decided to write the review anyway. Truly surprised and happy at how well-built and wonderful sounding this piano is!

The keyboard is quite easy to put together. It comes in a very heavy box though so I needed help getting it into the house. It did require two people to assemble it. Unfortunately, there was a broken piece on the lid that closes over the keyboard when not in use. It was not repairable but doesn’t change the ability to play the piano. While the base is not of the highest quality, it does seem pretty sturdy and stable. The keyboard is full size and has the entire range of a piano. The keys are weighted so that it feels so similar to playing an actual piano. The sound quality is great and there are a number of different sounds that can be used. The volume is good and I like that it can be turned up or down when my kids are practicing. They can even plug in their headphones and practice so as not to disturb others. Overall, I am pleased with the keyboard as a practice piano and is a great piano for my kids to learn with.

My daughter player and practices on this piano and loves it. The weighted keys have that ‘real feel’ that helps to strengthen and condition her fingers. The tone sound spot on and the built in dual speakers are loud enough for any practice session. The 3 pedals allow any beginner or intermediate player to keep advancing. The frame keeps the playing surface steady and doesn’t wobble. This has kept her motivate as a pianist. Trust you found this review honest and helpful:-)

Purchased for my kids to start seeing if they have more interest in learning. Very well designed and could be used for an everyday player.

I really do love this piano it has a beautiful paint job plays beautifully sounds amazing has three different foot pedals definitely worth the purchase
