Conclusion
The Yamaha ez200 lighted keyboard is a nice keyboard for beginners, including adults who have been longing to play the music keyboard for a long time. Though children may find this a fun keyboard instrument, adults should realize that this keyboard does not replace a teacher. This keyboard does help you get started but it's not going to teach you entirely how to play the piano. You will have to take lessons or buy piano learning software. The lighted keys on this keyboard are fun, and you can at least attempt playing along with some of the complicated songs that you would not otherwise try.
If you intend to use this keyboard along with your computer, you will have to buy a MIDI-connector since this does not come with a USB connection.
All-in-all this is a good starter keyboard for beginners. It will be good enough to practice till the time you demonstrate that you are serious about playing the piano, in which case you will have to upgrade to a better keyboard instrument. You also have the option of going in for a Casio lighted keyboard (LK series), if you are looking for a keyboard with lighted keys. But in terms of sound quality, the Yamaha ez-200 lighted music keyboard is a notch higher.
