Class Piano Lab Manufacturers Reliability
We have had personal experience with these models of PIANOS
over the past 25 years: Baldwin, Wurlitzer, Roland,
Korg, and Yamaha.
Baldwin and Wurlitzer no longer manufacture class piano labs.
Roland pianos worked faithfully for 10 years with no serious
problems.
Korg pianos have worked faithful for us for 9 years with no
problems to speak of. We would fully expect that they will continue
to function well for several more years.
Yamaha pianos have worked faithfully for us for 6 years with
no problems.
Casio now makes a line of pianos suitable for a class
piano lab: the PX-310. This is a GREAT piano with 88 semi-weighted
keys. The action FEELS GREAT and we highly recommend it. We have
had no problems with the PX-310 in our class piano lab installations.
M-Audio now makes a VERY small 49-key keyboard with
a built-in General MIDI sound back and this is the PERFECT keyboard
for elementary schools on a budget. M-Audio products have proven to
be completely reliable and whe have had no problems with their equipment.
