The YUS sits at 121 cm, which is the class most families buy and most teachers are happy with. It is the shortest YU line we list.

Both sides of it. If the right-hand column sounds like your situation, say so and we will point you elsewhere.
Middle register is where these live, and it is good. The lowest octave is adequate rather than a selling point. Against the Yamaha YUX it is 10 cm shorter and 22 kg lighter.
Set against the Yamaha U1H, the most commonly sold used Yamaha here, it is 1 kg heavier. Middling for weight in a range that spans 180 kg to 254 kg.
Yamaha is the brighter and quicker of the two, which is why exam candidates keep asking for one. Some players find the treble tiring over long sessions. Which you prefer is genuinely personal, and twenty minutes at the shop settles it faster than any description.
At 218 kg it is an ordinary move. Lift, fine. Stairs, tell us how many and which way they turn. At 61 cm front to back it is one of the shallower cases in the range, which is worth knowing if the hallway it has to pass through is narrow.
Yamaha built several at 121 cm tall: the U1A, U1D, U1E, U1F and 8 others. They differ in weight and case rather than in size. If the YUS is not on the floor when you ask, the table below is where we would send you next.
| Model | Height | Weight | Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yamaha YUS This model | 121 cm | 218 kg | 150 cm |
| Yamaha U1A | 121 cm | 218 kg | 150 cm |
| Yamaha U1D | 121 cm | 218 kg | 150 cm |
| Yamaha U1E | 121 cm | 218 kg | 150 cm |
What you are buying is the rebuild, not the badge. Two YUSs can be thousands of ringgit apart depending on what was replaced and how the last owner kept it.
Humidity decides how a piano ages here. These were built for a climate with a winter, and in Malaysia the soundboard takes up moisture and gives it back, week after week. That movement pulls a piano out of tune, not playing it.
For families not yet sure the lessons will stick. Rent a restored piano monthly, and if you keep it, everything paid comes off the price.
A later domestic series replacing the U numbering. YUS and YUA sit at the top of the range.
121 cm tall, 150 cm wide, 61 cm deep, and about 218 kg. Height sets the tone, weight sets what delivery day looks like.
You need about 1.5 m of wall and roughly 1.0 m². At 218 kg it is an ordinary move. Lift, fine. Stairs, tell us how many and which way they turn. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.
What you are buying is the rebuild, not the badge. Two YUSs can be thousands of ringgit apart depending on what was replaced and how the last owner kept it. Five years of parts and labour cover comes with it, from the same people who rebuilt it.
Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a YUS specifically. Ask what is free now. The rent turns into credit the moment you decide to buy it.
Ask, because it changes week to week. No stock today does not mean no stock next month. We watch for specific models.
Twice a year. Humidity decides how a piano ages here. These were built for a climate with a winter, and in Malaysia the soundboard takes up moisture and gives it back, week after week. That movement pulls a piano out of tune, not playing it. Two tunings after delivery are included when you buy from us.
Stock changes weekly. Message us and we will tell you whether a YUS is on the floor, send photos and the serial number, and say if something else suits you better.
