Rob Goodale, RPT >> Sorry I didn't get a chance to respond to this sooner but I am with those who would generally recommend the Knight piano as a good one. In fact, they are among the best vertical pianos built in recent times. They are not quite as easy to service as a Yamaha or Kawai but they have exceptionally good tone quality and deep, rich bass. The sustain in the treble is so long that there are many more dampers in the treble than with most pianos. While all of them have a nice lookiing case, some of them have the most beautiful veneers available in a vertical today. Those that have the Langer actions are the best, in my opinion. The Walter pianos have had the Langer for several years now too. If I were asked my opinion on the best that money could by in a small vertical piano today, the answer would be the Walter and the Knight because of the high quality and hand crafted character these two brands have. It is unfortunate that the Knight piano is not being exported to the US at this time. Bill Bremmer RPT Madison, Wisconsin
