The Costway 88-Key Hammer Action Weighted Keyboard is designed for beginners and intermediate musicians who prioritize an authentic piano experience at home. Its primary benefit is the weighted hammer action, which mimics the resistance of an acoustic instrument to help develop proper finger technique, though the piano requires a dedicated space and a steady power supply to function optimally.

Yes, the digital piano includes the necessary power supply for standard wall outlet operation.
Yes, the USB MIDI functionality makes it fully compatible with various learning applications such as GarageBand, POP Piano, and Perfect Piano.

Yes, it includes a 3-pedal unit that provides sustain, soft, and sostenuto functionality for expressive playing.
Check that the master volume is turned up and ensure no headphones are plugged into the headphone jacks, which may automatically mute the main speakers.
Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the piano and the computer, and verify that the host software is configured to receive MIDI input from the piano.
Check for debris between the keys; use compressed air to gently remove dust, and ensure the keyboard is on a perfectly level surface.
Assembly should be performed on a flat, stable surface to ensure the keyboard remains level. To integrate with learning applications like Perfect Piano or POP Piano, ensure your computer or tablet is connected to the USB MIDI port using a high-quality data cable. For care, wipe down the keys regularly with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to prevent dust accumulation between the key actions. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the finish of the keys and the cabinet. Keep the unit away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve the internal electronic components.
