First- consider all the reasons that people buy pianos and ask yourself some important up front questions.
Who is going to play the piano and what quality level is needed? Good? Better? Best?
Will a used piano do or are we the type that likes to buy new with a warranty?
What kind of piano do you want?
A grand? They have a very responsive action and a baby grand will fit in only a 5’ X 5’ space.
Perhaps a professional Studio with richer tone will be just fine.
Maybe a traditional console with a beautiful wood cabinet finish will be just what will work.
Are the digital pianos that never need tuning and that you can play with headphones something you’ve thought of?
These qualifying questions can be very helpful to target the right piano for your needs.
