Perfect Instrument for Beginner or Intermediate Pianist
By One Happy Mommy on Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2019
My daughter began learning in October how to play the piano. We looked for a secondhand or used keyboard but then were told by her pianist grandfather to look into a digital piano. I am so glad we researched and landed on the Yamaha NP12. This product produces a rich authentic sound. It does not have all of the bells and whistles of a keyboard, however it has a wonderful pure piano sound, perfect for a new player. I like that it has a number of keys and that the keys are weighted similarly to an actual piano.This product does not come with a cord or any other accessories, so if you need anything else, including the power cord be sure to order separately. My little girl loves that she can record her music and play it back. Since she’s a beginner the family loves being able to plug headphones in and allow her to practice quietly. I highly recommend this product if you have a little one learning piano but do not have the space or money for a piano.I’ve added a video of my little playing twinkle twinkle little star about three weeks into lessons. As you can see pressing down the keys is a bit difficult. However; now that she’s more advanced she easily moves from the digital piano to an actual piano. The keys are the same size, spaced the same and weighted making it a great first piano.

It's Okay
By dk3000 on Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2017
I am a beginner adult piano student so I am writing my review from this viewpoint. I have an acoustic piano, but needed a keyboard (with headphones) to practice on so that I could stop disturbing my family when practicing my lessons. I like some things about the keyboard, but there are other things I don't, so I have decided to return it.What I like about the NP32:*It has a beautiful piano sound.*It's lightweight/portable.*It's nice looking.*It's simple. It has a metronome, recorder and a few voices. I wasn't looking for 300+ voices and onboard lessons that I would never use, so the NP32 delivers in that area.*I like that when I press the keys harder or lighter, the sound gets louder or softer.These are all pluses.What I didn't like:* I would perfect a song on the NP32, but could not replay the same song without a ton of errors on my acoustic. I think this is because the NP32's keys are more narrow (than an acoustic). Smaller keys may not be an issue for other beginners or for more experienced players, but for me, it's a deal breaker.*Secondly, the volume is not loud enough for my taste, even with headphones in. And from what I can see there is no way to attach external speakers. Even if there were a way doing so would take away from the portability and sleek look of the keyboard.For these reasons I'm returning it.Who is this keyboard for?*For someone who can play this board and have it not affect their play on an acoustic.*For someone who needs a battery operated keyboard that's simple, portable and has a wonderful piano sound.*This keyboard is also for someone who can tolerate 12 watts of speaker power and have it be okay.If you decide to purchase this keyboard be sure to use the PA-150 power adapter.I ordered this keyboard based on reading all the reviews on Amazon and elsewhere and by watching tons of YouTube videos. I swore I would love it. I didn't. I'm happy I ordered it because now I know how important key width and speaker wattage are to me and I know what to look for moving forward.If/when I find a keyboard that suits my needs, I will be sure to update this post. Happy shopping everyone.
