Feature:
Haven't used it in depth, but it is definitely flexible enough that you could fix it to your feel, and style of playing.

Quality:
Nothing hangs loose on the product, and it looks nice, it is definitely a performers keyboard.

Desirability:
It looks good and professional, but it doesn't make me feel like I am driving a sports car. It isn't overbearing, which is nice, but at the seem time it doesn't make me lust after it. It is Lexus nice, I want more than a test drive, unlike a more exotic car you would keep in the garage.

Sound:
Sound quality is excellent, I've listened to it fairly extensively, and it continues to put out good enough sound for a professional. The first grand piano setting sound more geniune then I've heard on any other Keyboard.

Overall:
forever

"killer samples, relatively light for a weighted action controller, no frills but everything I need for a performance controller"

The acoustic piano samples are absolutely excellent, the electric pianos are usable (but not great), the clav's are decent, the kb3 hammond is pretty good (especially through a motion sound) but it's not so easy to get "hammondy" with weighted keys. overall I love this thing, except for the "lump in the line" style power supply. I already bought a backup because I expect to either tear up or lose the original.

Feature:
Most complicated keyboard ever. I've had to struggle downloading different operating systems and customizing it to my needs.

Quality:
Kurzweil replaced the whole keyboard, which was falling apart on me.

Value:
It's priced under other units, deservedly so.

Desirability:
I'm tired of the tone generator wheels adding length. Giving me two dedicated volume slider switches for left hand and right when playing splits.

Sound:
I wore out several K1000's, which had a far superior piano sound to this one. Even in mono, the piano becomes harsh and tiring to listen to. Other sounds, like the vibes, simply aren't as full and present as the old K1000 (they were made in Japan then, not Korea).

Support:
Not a huge company, but their tech person is quite responsive and helpful.

Overall:
I've never been satisfied.
