I bought this piano for my great-grandchildren, aged 5, 4 and 2, for Christmas. They absolutely love it (and are tone deaf), so they love pounding the keys and producing soft, pleasant tones. The parents, however, are finding the tones difficult to cope with, as they are neither soft nor pleasant. The piano is great for the kids to enjoy with the only problem being they all want to play it at once. A win for me (as a cool Nanna), and a win for the kids (who enjoy using the creative side of their brains). Karma for the parents, whose ears used to be tone deaf when they were growing up but their ears became more sensitive as parents. Hahaha.
