Startone MK-300 Reviews

Great for start

I acquired this keyboard as Christmas gift for my son (age 8) and it was a smash.

What attracted me at first is price vs number of functionality. For this price tag you will get quite a lot. Large number of songs, different voices and rhythm styles right of the box is a great way to understand world of keyboards. A top of that is touch sensitive 61 keys which is a surprise in this price range, as they can be found only on keyboards that are much more expensive.

Keys are full dimension, which is important if you're willing to start to learn to play piano.

Keyboard is very lightweight thanks to it's cheaper plastic, very good for carrying around, but it can be a drawback to put it on a stand.

A lot of functions, but easy to learn. Keyboard split, rec/play functions and LCD display will get you going in no time. Pitch band, MIDI connection and possibility to attach additional sustain expression pedal is nice bonus as well.

It comes with it's own power supply, but you can use batteries as well.

This box is great fun to play and great entry point if you want ti learn basic piano.

Startone MK-300 for beginners

This keyboard is good enough for home use, parties and so on, but not for professional musicians. Nice sound, and features. The only one thing "made wrong" is recognition of key pressure... but this keyboard at least has a few levels of key pressure. So, I've bought it just for learning and it's good enough for such price.

Startone Surprise

Bought this as a gift and was very impressed with the quality of the sounds and general specification of the keyboard, the person I bought it for was also very impressed with the keyboard (thankfully!). Compared to a similarly priced Yamaha, this one is superior in every way. With the self accompaniment features and recording, it makes a great first keyboard. It is a little more functional in appearance that the bigger names, but behind the somewhat plain design is a really good keyboard, especially considering the price.
