Rating:

The Casio AP250 replaces the AP-220 in the Celviano series of pianos, and comes with a better piano sound and a redesigned keyboard action. It also offers a 3-pedal unit suitable for traditional piano pedaling. Suitable for the serious piano learner and for those looking for a piano in the classic design! Those who prefer the best piano action and with a stretchable budget may consider the Casio AP420 or the AP620.

Sequencer (only 2 tracks)

Review

Who Is It For?
The digital piano segment is only getting better for the consumers with some top quality & affordable models being launched recently. The Casio AP250 certain raises the bar and is one of the best pianos in the sub-thousand dollar segment.

If you are a serious piano learner or want a piano for practicing, and don’t need all the bells and whistles, this is a suitable piano. The design is clutter free and all the selections have to be made using a combination of button and keys.

This one replaces the AP-220 and has a much better sound and key-action.

More Benefits
The ebony and ivory keys makes it feel like an expensive piano. It comes with a sliding key cover to keep it dust-free.

You get a library of around 60 songs that can be learnt at any tempo. The Duet Mode makes it possible to connect two headphones so that two people can play/practice together.

The recorder lets you record 2 tracks max, but I guess that's because this piano doesn't come with any accompaniments.

This Casio AP250 Celviano piano comes with a piano bench.
