“Great keyboard but K2 is too small for my clumsy hands... not their fault. A larger one may have worked better for me. Otherwise I like everything about it.”

Praise
“For the price, this keyboard should cost more than what it does. It sounds good, the weight of the keyboard has the heft of a more expensive keyboard. I am happy with it”
