125 cm puts this between the small uprights and the full-height ones, which is a useful place to be.
Give us the floor and the lift situation and we will be straight with you about whether this one suits.
Kawai
In the price, not added at the end.
Worth reading the right-hand column properly. Most of the pianos that come back are access problems, not taste problems.
This is where the left hand starts getting proper support. Above middle C the difference is smaller than the height suggests.
Set against the Kawai No. K35, the most commonly sold used Kawai here, it is 7 cm shorter. Middling for weight in a range that spans 160 kg to 270 kg.
Kawai voicing runs warmer than Yamaha at the same size, particularly up top. People who practise for hours tend to prefer it. Neither is better. Play both, which you can do on one floor at the shop.
At 220 kg it is an ordinary move. Lift, fine. Stairs, tell us how many and which way they turn.
Kawai built several at 125 cm tall: the No. K20, K-5, No. KS2, BL-31 and 11 others. They differ in weight and case rather than in size. If the OP-25 is not on the floor when you ask, the table below is where we would send you next.
| Model | Height | Weight | Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kawai OP-25 This model | 125 cm | 220 kg | 153 cm |
| Kawai BS-20 | 125 cm | 220 kg | 153 cm |
| Kawai BS-25 | 125 cm | 220 kg | 153 cm |
| Kawai KU-2 | 125 cm | 220 kg | 152 cm |
We do not guess about individual instruments. Ask what was replaced on the OP-25 you are looking at and we will tell you, serial number included.
Keep it off an outside wall if you can, out of the sun, and away from the air conditioning. Those three things do more damage here than a child practising ever will.
Not sure yet? Rent monthly and decide later. What you have paid in rent comes straight off the price if you keep it.
A domestic model in the common 125 cm class, conventional in case and action.
125 cm tall, 153 cm wide, 61 cm deep, and about 220 kg. Height sets the tone, weight sets what delivery day looks like.
You need about 1.6 m of wall and roughly 1.0 m². At 220 kg it is an ordinary move. Lift, fine. Stairs, tell us how many and which way they turn. Message us the room and the floor. It takes a minute and saves a wasted trip.
We do not guess about individual instruments. Ask what was replaced on the OP-25 you are looking at and we will tell you, serial number included. If something goes wrong in the first five years, it is our workshop that fixes it.
Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a OP-25 specifically. Ask what is free now. Buy the one you have been renting and the rent already paid comes off the price.
Ask, because it changes week to week. If nothing suits, we will tell you that too.
Twice a year. Keep it off an outside wall if you can, out of the sun, and away from the air conditioning. Those three things do more damage here than a child practising ever will. Two free tunings in the first fortnight come with the piano.
We would rather point you at the right piano than sell you this one. Tell us what you need and we will say what we have.
