Are the keys weighted? Also how's the pedal? Asking people who've had it awhile and are experienced with grand pianos, are you satisfied?

The keys are weighted. I haven't played too many actual pianos, but from the little I have played, it feels about the same. The pedal is just okay, it gets the job done, but you have to find a way to keep it from moving around.

Yes, the keys are weighted. My son, who enjoys a good sounding piano and has a Yamaha U3 at home (a full upright - beautiful rich sounding) has this keyboard with him (away) and is very pleased with it.

It completely depends on what she wants to do with it. To me, there are not enough keys to make it any sort of adequate substitute for a full piano, using two hands. It's generally intended to be slung around the shoulder and played with the right hand only. It's not self amplified, so it needs to be connected to some sort of powered speaker, unless you use it exclusively with headphones. That being said, I think the sounds and the physical keyboard touch are nice. If it were me, I might look for something like a Yamaha YPG 235 instead. More keys, self amplified, meant to be played with two hands, many sounds, accompaniment features. My own opinion only!

Yes. The music rack does a good job. Yesterday I went to my local music store and compared other digital pianos to my DGX-640C with the three pedal unit, and decided I could find no better instrument for my needs. To me it offers me the ideal home instrument from which to play other digital or acoustic pianos wherever I go.

Hi- the keys are weighted and it feels and sounds like an upright. It plays wonderfully and there is no other key noise that we can hear. It's worked out great for our beginner player!

Yes, it does. However I'd like to add while it is touch sensitive, I was lead to believe they are weighted somehow, but it is not at all like a real piano. More of a dampening, the key feels like it is going through foam or something to make you hit light or hard for the correct tone loudness. More difficult to get a light or heavy struck note. I'm no musician, but was disappointed by the touch sensitivity mechanism. For the price, if your not a pro, it is a good value though. Display is also too small for my old eyes.

It's lighter than the real pianos of course. But not by much. But the other Japanese brand do have heavier keys.

The keys action is very different to a "real" piano. It takes a while to master it for expression. Depending on your use it might work.I use it for practice only. If you need to practice and them play a "real" piano afterward I would not advise it. The sounds are great if you use headphones.

The keys are not weighted! it's very light synth action keyboard...If you look for weighted keyboard, you need the heavy MOTIF (with accordingly heavy cost;)...

No, I would not describe the sound of this digital piano as "toy like" at all. Of course, it does not sound quite like a Yamaha or Steinway grand piano, but it certainly does sound like a serious piano. The only thing that limits the quality of the sound is the built-in speakers. One can easily connect it to a good amplifier and larger, high quality speakers, and then its sound will be very close to that of a real grand piano.

Yes, the keys are weighted. I am not sure if they are weighted the same as regular pianos (non-digital). But they work just fine, more than enough for beginner learners any way.

It plays and feels like a piano keyboard. I would says it's more weighted than sensitive. I hope that helps answer the question :)

The keys are not weighted. They are sensitive to touch, as in, if you strike it hard, it will produce a louder sound, but it doesn't feel like a real piano.

The stand is fine for me. The piano is heavy enough, making it pretty stable. Not a problem.

I don't. I have a Fatar 88 key weighted keyboard... It is heavy as hell. It has never moved on me at all while playing, standing or sitting.The frame itself feels wobbly but has never collapsed on me. I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised with it considering it is a pretty cheap stand. So far it has exceeded expectations.

As answered before; yes, the keys are weighted and feel and respond very realistically compared to an acoustic piano. (IMHO) For the money, it is an amazing digital piano. You get a whole lot of bang for your buck!

It comes with a Pedal. Doesn't come with a bench or stand. Though, it is a heavier piano, so if you do purchase it, I recommend getting a Z stand and not an X Stand. :) Still, for an electric keyboard, its tone is unmatched for the money in my opinion. Still use it very often.

The keyboard lacks an actual counterweight system, which is what "weighted" usually means. You would generally need to spend another $200 (minimum) to get that. Though the spring system and the keys themselves are the highest quality you will find for a "non-weighted" keyboard (my opinion), and have a resulting weight that ends up coming very close to "actual" weighted keys. For this price range, it is a very impressive feel.
