Alesis Melody 32 and M-Audio HDH40 – Electric Keyboard Digital Piano with 32 Keys, Speakers, USB-MIDI Connectivity, Headphones and Piano Lessons

Works, sounds, and looks great, great value for the price. The only down side was the bench/seat height doesn't adjust but we are using a smaller chair for now.

Quality Product, great customer service/support. My 7 year old granddaughter loves this piano!

This is definitely NOT a performance keyboard. It doesn't even have a pedal jack. That said, that makes it perfect for learning. It's simple, straight forward, and keeps students from deciding they're going to play nothing but the latest pop diva tunes the whole class time. It's relatively low cost, adaptor/battery power choice, and light weight makes it a perfect traveling instrument.

We had an antique upright piano in our home when I was a kid. It was a family heirloom, having previously belonged to the family's Favorite Uncle, and left to us when he passed. I plunked on it from time to time, but never got serious about learning to play it. I had other homework to do and the local woods to explore.I recently acquired a book of a favorite author's (Tolkien) poems set to music. There was one song in particular that I wanted to sing, but my sight-reading skills are not what they once were, so I needed a keyboard's assistance to help me learn the song. Hence with my purchasing this Alesis Melody 61.I like the size of the keyboard. With only 61 of a piano's usual 88 keys, it fits nicely into an available spot in my living room, without my having to significantly rearrange my furniture. For most purposes, 5 octaves of keys is sufficient. It was easy to assemble, and I had it up and ready to play in just a few minutes after opening the box. I was able to play through several exercises in the piano lessons books I also purchased, and to fumble through the Hymn to Varda section of "I Sit Beside the Fire" from my Tolkien book. I had a nice feeling of accomplishment by the end of the evening.There are a few areas where there is room for improvement. They keys are a bit stiff, and require more strength to strike and hold than does an actual piano, which can be a bit frustrating. They are also not sensitive to the amount of force used, so the volume the keyboard produces remains the same whether you are lightly pressing or vigorously pounding the keys. Playing dynamic changes in a piece of music is impossible with this keyboard. The tones the keyboard plays are distinctly artificial, too flat and robotic with that harsh, square digital edge common in auto-tuned vocals; it is lacking the analog warmth of an actual piano.The bottom line is that is this a $120 keyboard. It is completely sufficient for learning basic keyboard techniques or plunking out a line of notes to learn the melody of a song from a sheet of music. If you're looking to learn how to play piano, this will get you 80% of the way there. Dynamic control (changing the loudness/softness of the music) is an important part of that skill, though, and you will not learn it with this keyboard. You will also not produce beautiful music with this keyboard, because of the lack of dynamics and the quality of the tones. This is a fine, inexpensive first keyboard to use while figuring out if you want to make the investment in something more "serious". Just don't expect that you're going to use it for your debut at Carnegie Hall!

Great little keyboard. Lots of fun features. The stool is very durable

I was on the fence due to the bad reviews and the mix of good reviews. I am glad I give it a chance because he has been a really good beginner keyboard. If you want it to sound like a normal piano, remember to hit the keypad in the keypad on your right (001) that’s it; that’s that will get you the sound that you’re looking for.!!

Delivered a day early, and this keyboard is a great buy! Sounds great, and great quality!

This instrument works very well for what it’s used for! Not too big and bulky and not too small either. It doesn’t have the teaching feature for beginners as some do but my son just looked up some he wanted to learn online and learned from the video within the hour. Her only confusing thing we experienced was the plug. We thought we had to get a converting piece but the product actually came with all necessities, the part fell out upon unboxing. The stand and stool seem to be made well and sturdy. Really good bundle, I would definitely recommend!

I got this for my 3 years old, she's tall as a 4 so it can be adjusted to her size, both the seat and Keyboard.Awesome sound, speakers are loud enough, HHeadphone jack can accomodate an output to a sound bar or such.Only thing I don't like, the MIC VOLUME is NOT LINKED to the master volume and is ALWAYS MAXED. Gets annoying to hear her sing when the sound is maxed lol. But hey, she had fun!I would recommend getting Keys stickers for it since it's really made for beginners.Solid build of the seat and keyboard holder, the keyboard is made of cheap plastic though, so don't let it fall from more than a feet or it might crack.Overall, a great value for the money and one happy 3 years old daughter/possible future musician.

Pensé que por el precio sería algo más como de juguete pero la verdad nos sorprendió, es de muy buena calidad y el precio que ofrece Amazon es inigualable. Ya incluye el banco, el soporte, un micrófono,un cargador y un cd para practicar. Nos encantó que puedes usarlo con un eliminador de corriente normal o con pilas para poder transportarlo ya que no es nada estorboso, tiene muchísimas funciones y el sonido es buenísimo. Tambien nos gustó mucho que ya incluyera todo eso por el precio tan bajo porque así no tienes que estar consiguiendo todo por partes. Mi hija lo usa muchísimo para practicar solfeo, lo recomiendo ampliamente. Llevamos un año con el y sigue como nuevo.

Entspricht genau der Beschreibung und Abbildung! Ich spiele sehr gerne damit! Diverse Klänge&Rhythmen!!!

Super contento con el piano. Siempre quise aprender y es genial para su precio. Incluso el sillón da sensación de solidez y calidad. De mis productos preferidos que compre este año.
