Weber Ridgewood 159 Contemporary Grand Piano

Advantages: Music is great!
Disadvantages: When the piano goes out of tune!

...Well, pianos ayyy?! I love the piano, I have one at home, and Ive been playing for a year now. Not very long, but I'm learning very well, and have learned alot of songs, from pop to classic, to classic to alternative. I also make up my own musical tunes and songs. I dont know what I would do without music! lol. Music helps me to relax, and unwind after a tiring, stressful day.

There are some adjustments you can make to alter the touch on the pianos, but to the inexperienced like myself it will probably not make too much difference. Whilst the ease of playing is a great advantage whilst performing to audiences, particularly for non-professional players, this makes it less useful as a teaching/learning instrument. I know that the hours of playing my own piano were... Read review

Advantages: Learning.
Disadvantages: None.

...I have played the piano for a year now, it is very exiting and you learn something everytiime i play it. Which means you will to. Won't you??? I play the piano at school and my music teacher learns me every monday and wednesday. If you wish to play the piao you could start tomorrow all you need to do is to buy a piano book and i all of them it will tell you where all of the keys are and all of the notes. PIanos are very expensive so if you are just a beginner just buy a keyboard to start off wit as they are less expensive as the piano. Learning the piano is extremely easy. you may find it hard at first finding all of the keys but te after a coupleof weeks or so it is as easy as pie.... Read review
