I love it. It is an integral part of my home studio. The sounds are great and really easy to navigate. It's easy and comfortable to play, it doesn't feel like a pro keyboard, but it's not supposed to. Really easy to convert to a midi controller. The only drawback is that I would have liked a few more knobs and sliders to play with.

Had one of these for a few years now. Used it for worship and live gigs. It has an overall feel like it may be flimsy and cheap but it's not. The sounds are top of the line, editing software is helpful, feel of the keys is good and it is so portable and easy to play. One con is the power input feels sketchy, although I gave not had any problems with it. Highly recommend it.
