I own a Casio PX-560. I love this instrument- BUT since I play out I needed a portable, FIRM, good looking stand. The Casio stand is not portable unless you have a van or large SUV, and frankly it looks kind of "wimpy". In fact I was using a Casio CGP-700 stand which is even worse since I was carrying around the speakers which I could not use. I looked at all the stands available. It is obvious that one or two companies make stands, then sell them to different firms with various names on them! Things are compounded by the fact that the Casio instruments have a steel reinforcing bar under the piano. This prevents the piano from sitting flat, sooooo you have to have something that supports the piano and takes this into consideration, OR you have to modify the stand. I chose to buy a quality stand that looks good and supports the piano firmly and is portable. The K&M stand (in white) filled the bill. This stand is modern looking, allows plenty of legroom under the stand, AND is rock solid! NOW, I had to have custom made two steel bars that run the length of the piano. These bars support the PX-560 fully so I could remove the steel bar under the piano. I measured carefully and had two slots milled out of these bars, so they fit perfectly on the two arms that support the piano on the K&M stand. Now, was this a bit of work and cost- YES. BUT- now I have a rock solid stand that looks great and is easily portable. IF, you have a piano that has a metal frame: Korg-Nord-Kawai etc you will not need these modifications I made. But for me it was worth it. What good is a stand if the piano is bouncing around? The K&M is a great choice, it is built like a tank, yet is not heavy, and it looks great. If your serious about your playing, this is THE stand.

The K&M looks good in a living room full of antiques. There's no wobble or any loose parts, even on top of a braided rug. Easy to adjust, tools are not required.

It arrived but one of the upper arms was missing. I called zZounds and customer service said that it was going to be two to three weeks to get another arm. I called K&M and no response. So I am sending it back. Was not too impressed for a keyboard stand over $219.
