Feature:
Includes pedal, stand. Soundwise it have about 10 instruments (if I'm not mistaken), each has 3 different voices that are similar but different. I mainly use the piano sound only so I don't have much comment about the others. Solid stand, solid pedal.

Quality:
Love it. Altho one thing that I notice when I first got it was there was sort of a soft "click" on one of the note if you wiggle it left-right. But if you put the volume a bit louder, you probably won't notice anyway.

Value:
Good value for the price

Desirability:
I don't really like the color. It doesn't look like a modern cool music instrument. Hahaha.. but again, it's a matter of preference, so I won't complain much about it.

Sound:
I grew up with Yamaha piano, so it took some adjustment to get used to Korg sound. The weight feel is also different than Yamaha. The built in speaker is great, but not the best. It sounds better if you use a good-quality headphone. But I do use the built-in speaker more often due to lazyness to having something over my head all the time :)

Ease of Use:
Quite intuitive to use. But do read the manual, because they have extra features that you won't figure out on your own.

Support:
Did not have to deal yet.

Overall:
Overall, I love my digital piano and I use it on a daily basis, although I would probably still prefer Yamaha if they were on my budget. This could be biased though, since I grew up using Yamaha, so I tend to prefer their key weights and their sounds. The only thing that I wish Korg could change is the stand. The stand is not adjustable, it's a fixed height. They probably made this with American person as a standard. For me, an Asian, it's hard to find a balance between having a taller chair so I can play the keyboard comfortably, and still having my feet reaching the pedal. I find that's the drawback. Usually Yamaha keyboard heights work better for me... maybe because they're Asian-made? LOL Well, I'm not a heavy user/professional musicians, so I can still live with it. But you may want to consider this fact to try out the height before you go and buy the keyboard.

Feature:
Pedal design is good; it doesn't move around. The stand is very solid, yet very light. The front control panel is easy to use. Polyphony is adequate for a keyboard in this price range.

Quality:
Excellent. Very solid feel. Keyboard has a really solid action. The piano is also very attractive. The keyboard does not wobble or move on the stand, even though the stand is very light.

Value:
Very good value.

Sound:
For a portable digital piano, outstanding. The basic sounds are probably better than the combined / layered sounds.

Ease of Use:
Very straightforward. Like most portable digital pianos, not a lot to it. Can be played out of the box.

Support:
Not required yet.
