I did a LOT of reading/comparing a bewildering amount of pianos currently on the market. But kept coming back to the Axus D2. It is very well built (solid is probably more accurate!). Arrived very well packaged in 2 huge boxes. You WILL need at least 2 people to put it together. Instructions were of the pictorial type and easy enough to follow.
I bought this for my 4 year old daughter, and she absolutely loves it!. The piano sound is superb, and the feel of the keys is really quite realistic. Her lessons have progressed so much quicker since she started using it.
Although there are many other instruments to choose from, I'm making her concentrate on piano at the moment.
The rhythm and accompaniment section is great too.
Overall, this piano easily fulfils our requirements. Other makes around this end of the market seemed to offer less and want more money. Very happy with Normans and choosing this piano. Highly recommended.
