Stylish and compact, Korg's microPIANO digital piano is charming and designed like a grand piano even complete with an opening lid! The microPIANO features Korg's expressive 61-key Natural Touch mini-keyboard, carefully designed to provide true playability. The bold, smooth grand piano sound uses the same stereo samples as Korg's flagship digital pianos, generating full-bodied tones with depth and character. This instrument provides pure piano enjoyment and will enhance your living space simply by its presence. The Korg microPIANO comes well equipped with 61 vibrant and authentic sounds. Keyboard sounds go beyond the traditional pianos to include electric pianos, harpsichords, accordion, celeste, organs, clavs, toy pianos, and more! Outside of the keyboard family, there are also flutes, strings, harps, bells, and mallet percussion sounds - marimbas, vibes, steel drums, even kalimbas and music boxes! Of these 61 sounds, 25 are Short Phrase Sounds that can automatically generate phrases simply by holding down a key. For example, these include arpeggiated piano patterns or even organ sounds complete with phrases from famous pipe organ compositions. Sounds such as toy piano and steel drum offer phrases mimicking the playing techniques unique to those instruments, and can be used as sound effects or as creative ideas. Using these Short Phrase Sounds can allow even the novice player to easily create a satisfying performance. The Korg microPIANO contains 40 demonstration songs featuring mainly classical compositions. Listen to these as demo songs, or enjoy them as background music in your room, just as you would listen to a CD or MP3 player. The demonstration songs can be played using the pre-assigned sounds, or you can play the same song using a different sound.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Surprisingly stunning
Korg uses their mini-keys for this, and at first glance you'd think that would lump it into the "toy" category. Not so. I'm a classically trained pianist and I can honestly say -- this is the first mini-key controller that I felt I could actually play expressively. The piano sounds are exceptional. I played with it at NAMM and was blown away. I think Korg has done an exceptional job at making these things musically useful. Granted it is not a full-featured controller. But look over the feature set, and if it's got what you need, rest assured that it's actually a pleasure to play. A+

A lot of fun
This is not really a piano, nor is it a toy. Somewhere in the middle, but it is really great. I have a Yamaha Clavinova as my real piano, but this Micropiano I can get on my lap and play almost everywhere. As portable as a guitar would be.
The keys are not regular size, but even with my 'regular size' fingers I have found no difficulties in playing it. It even allows me some chord I never could play on a regular piano.
I like the sounds; well not all but some of them are really a pleasure to listen. Even with the small speakers the sound quality is good.
Nothing is perfect: There could be a transport bag included, and a sustain pedal. The Top has no lock to keep it shut when closed, no cover for the keybord, and the volume control is really micro.
But all in all I am glad with my micropiano.
Kork Micro-Piano novice review
Is this a little piano or just a really good toy piano?
I bought this for my 3 year old and she loves it, as much for the cute aesthetics of the piano as for the fun she has playing with it.
Being small it is good for kids but unlike a toy piano the keys are velocity sensitive. The sound quality is good and volume is ok for its size (see youtube) but won't fill a room. However it has 3.5 mm line/headphone out so you could connect it to external amp or speakers. There's also a few dozen instrument sounds to choose from. It has midi in so you can connect a sustain pedal also.
Although it's suitable of kids it is fun for all ages. I'm not a pianist but I have had some fun learning and playing on this little piano.
If you want to spoil your child don't waste money on a cheap toy piano, get a cheap little piano like this.
