To be clear, are you talking about Charles Walter vertical pianos?

All the specs seemed good. We bought two. For some reason they went out of tune far more frequently than the P22s and the UST7s. Go figure. We traded out rooms, tried different technicians, put them where other pianos had been very stable, all to no avail. I finally got rid of both of them. One is 10 years old and the other a bit older. Maybe the newer ones are better. It drove us all crazy because we liked the sound and tuning was not difficult. The dang things just didn't like us!

That's a very durable upright piano with a good warm sound and a hammer density that makes sense for a practice room.
