Donner DDP-400 Professional Digital Piano

Love this piano! It exceeded my expectations. It’s beautiful and has so many features. It’s a perfect piano to learn how to play the piano on. Love it!

I sent an email. NO RESPONSE. THE PIANO THEY SENT IS BROKEN. I SPENT ALMOST $1200 and I can’t even play the piano. DONT BUY FROM THEM

Just as advertised! No issues with shipping, no issues with assembly, sounds great, looks great!

Love the design and all the features!

My wife loves it : ) Particularly she like being able to play it as other instruments like the various organs and coliope. But she is disappointed that it has no pipe organ. Can that be added ?

The piano and bench were packaged very well, but there were two cracks in the wood beneath the keys upon opening it. We occasionally have to turn the piano off and back on to reset the keys on the left side after attempting to record something. Overall, the sound quality is good.

Was shipped with extra protection and arrived not damaged. We are happy so far.

We upgraded from a Donner beginner piano to this. My kids say it feels like an acoustic piano. It has a nice sound and looks nice.

I bought the DDP-400 about a month ago and it does feel like you're playing a "real" piano. I got the glossy black and it looks really classy and is easy to set up. After it was delivered I had mine up and playing within 30 minutes. The sound quality is great. My favorite thing is when I play using my headphones. The external sound is substantial and sounds great at full blast or a low volume. The sound doesn't deteriorate when you increase the volume. Not to mention, the sound quality through the headphones is exceptional. I have Yamaha brand headphones and haven't tried the one that it came with but it. It easily connects through Bluetooth and the Midi cable to my iPad and works great with GarageBand (a free app that comes with iPads and iPhones) so I can record myself. I find the control buttons on the left counter intuitive. It's easy to just turn it on and start playing. But I have to read the owners manual every time I want to play with rhythm or metronome. I just started using an app on my iPad and just use it for the piano but it would be nice to have a better interface. Last thing is I can't figure out how to download the app. The directions in the owners manual lead to a dead end. I found other donner apps but none of them are relevant to the DDP-400. Overall I think it's a good piano. It's strong points are the feel of the keys, the cosmetic appeal, sound quality, high quality headphone configuration, MIDI and Bluetooth easily connect. I've played it everyday since I received it and I don't regret it. There are some areas that could be improved, especially with the control function panel. The lack of an app similar to the Yamaha digital piano app is a downside but it gives you multiple ways to connect the piano to your devices. I just use apps to play backing tracks and rhythms so I don't really miss out on anything

I love my DDP400 electric piano! It's my first electric piano so I"m learning how to use it's many settings and accompaniment. I especially like the deeper bass sounds when set on grand piano. I had an issue with a couple of keys clicking and their customer care team did a great job of addressing the problem to my complete satisfaction.

Received my piano, it was easy to put together, and sounds beautiful. So such a great price and I am veryvhapoy. happy I finally made the purchase!

Love this piano! I have practiced on it almost every day since it has arrived. It looks beautiful and is the perfect size if your looking for something that is not too big.

I grew up playing classical for 10+ yrs on a baby Boston grand. 20 years later I’m a proud father to 3 girls, looking to get back into piano and give my girls the same opportunity I had to fall in love with music. I spent a lot of time - ALOT - speaking to folks and searching for the best “first piano” for our wide range of interests, experiences, and maturity… This is it, comes with over the ear headphones, and at a fantastic price. DDP-400 or bust baby! —CKC

I love this piano. The action on the keys is perfect and the sound is better than any digital piano. The only down side is I didn’t get the duet bench I ordered with it. I let them know a few days later and they sent it right away. Unfortunately I was out of town and it sat outside for a week.

Arrived in great condition and all the features appear to operate perfectly

Nice-looking and -playing piano. I was also given an unbeatable discount. Customer Service was prompt and fair/generous.

Before I buy a piano DPD-300 from Walmart. But this time, I buy a new piano DPD-400 from directly website www.us.donnermusic.com. I got a good price and good service. The Donner’s customer service is very professional. I had a small problem with my piano. So they solved it by professional way. I am really satisfied and happy about them and their product. The Piano DPD-400 is very good functions. Sound is good and design is so luxurious.

I am absolutely thrilled with my purchase! The piano not only looks beautiful and is made of high-quality materials, but it also sounds incredible. I have been playing the piano for over 18 years and have tried many different instruments, so I can confidently say that I am very impressed with the Donner DDP-400. The keyboard feels heavy, just like an acoustic piano, which I truly appreciate. Everything works perfectly. While I probably won’t use all the extra features or other sounds it offers, I give it a solid 10/10 for quality. I also want to highlight how well and securely it was packaged. I was worried about potential scratches or damage during shipping, but there wasn’t a single flaw — everything arrived in perfect condition. When I shared a video of the piano on my social media, all my musician friends started asking about the brand and commented on how beautiful and rich the sound is. I highly recommend it! Thank you!

10/10 highly recommend buying. The keys are weighted, the sound quality is amazing, I feel like I’m playing on a stage whenever I play.

My keyboard arrived unscratched! I love it so far. The sound and weight of the keys are both great. I love that there's a headphone jack (versus some new keyboards having bluetooth). I had to buy an aux adapter to plug my beats into it. Build instructions are honestly sparse. It will be easy to disassemble to move, so I can't complain too much.

I’m 9 years old and this is my first piano. I got the Donner ddp 400 a week ago and I’ve been playing it almost all day every day. I like that it has full-weighted keys, 138 tones and a sliding cover. The piano has 10 buttons and 2 knobs. And it sounds great too. I also got the 2 seater bench. It’s my favorite thing to do and I like playing it a lot.

After the short assembly, the unit provides an amazing sound. Our pianist play a number of sets to the enjoyment of many. Bountiful unit!

We love the piano! The product is wonderful and worth the money. Although, the company’s customer service is terrible. We received our piano with some damage to the underside, which is not Donner’s fault, but the fault of the carrier service they chose. I have written them an email twice and got no response. Not a good way to do business.

Good thing about having bluetooth and very good sound quality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMRtqn2zCq0

Aside from one key that isn't as soft pressing than the other keys, I find it very enjoyable to play. My 400 series kind of gives you the feeling of playing a small grand in terms of sound .

this review is for DDP400. there are a lot of bad reviews about Donner built quality. it made me hesitated. but i pulled the trigger. that was definitely very good decision. set up was easy. i set it up all by myself. recommend two person if you can’t lift heavy. the piano is inside wooden or pressed wood and it is heavy. very good quality. and reg. sound quality, it is amazing. the speakers are very loud. i only use 25% and it’s already loud and clear. it definitely sounds acoustic. if you don’t know it is digital, you will think it is real acoustic. this piano comes with most of the functions that you need like recording, midi, tempo, metro, and more. for those who doesn’t like weighted keys, that’s not for you. it has the feel of grand piano keys. this thing is concert or studio ready. i have Yamaha digital piano and Donner sounds better than Yahama. btw. i don’t get paid by Donner. i contacted Dinner customer service once reg order, my call was picked up right away and they took care of my questions in less than 5 min. amazing service as well. i will write another review in a few months reg. durability since i only have this for couple days. overall, very impressed. peace!

I got the ddp-400 this week and love it

Beautiful! I love the feel of the keys and the lovely sound. What really made me decide to purchase the DDP400 piano was the recommendation from Natalie Raynes Blanton. She gave it an excellent review in her remarks and the demo she played was just amazing!! I would highly recommend this piano!! I also purchased the two seater bench and it just adds to the piano itself.

There was an issue with the first order but customer service was able to correct the problem so I am very pleased with the level of service and how they stand behind their reputation and products. The sound quality is amazing, sounds just like a non digital piano but has way more flexibility like volume control, headphones, and over 100 different instrument sounds. I got the bench and extended cabinet for a better sound or speaker option and I'm glad I did. Well worth it and my family has been enjoying it ever since we received it. Would definitely purchase again in the future

When I received this piano it was scratched in a couple spots. It was handled to many times to get it to me. The Styrofoam that it was in was all broken. I like the other features of this piano though. I would have given 5 stars, except for the packaging was not adequate and the piano was scratched.

I bought this digital piano as a gift for my teenage son and he absolutely loves it. It's perfect for birthdays and Christmas, and he has been improving his piano skills with it.

I gave it as a gift and the person loves it. I ,personally, have a Yamaha Clavinova and Yamaha C3i. The Donner 400 can do that and more. As a concert pianist, I love the touch and feel of the keys. The sound is extremely good. I’m very pleased with the purchase and, for the money, is an exceptional buy

This digital piano is perfect for daily practice. The sound quality is excellent and it's designed specifically for practice sessions. Highly recommend!

Got the ddp 400 about two weeks ago. I'm a begginer, never played before, but so far I'm in love with it. I wanted a digital piano that was close to a real piano and based on reviews this piano is great for that with the weighted keys. Highly recommend for beginners

I love using this digital piano for practice. The keys are responsive and the sound quality is excellent. Plus, it looks great as a decor piece in my home.

The piano looks and feels good, being a beginner it sounds good to me. Putting it together was easy and not complicated at all. I took away one star because of packaging. The box came all beat up with extra tape keeping it together. Corners were crush and flopping open. The piano took 11 days to get here and now this. I unpacked slowly and almost every piece of Styrofoam was crush and in pieces. Thankfully there was minimal damage, a corner was chipped off and other small scratches that are not visible. Need to pay a little more to your China connection to get better packaging for this 140lb box. Also I'm almost sure it left your warehouse in this condition before USP made it worst. I still would recommend this piano and happy with my purchase.

I use this digital piano for practicing and performing on-stage. The sound is great and the machine is designed perfectly for practice sessions.

The Donner DDP-400 Digital Piano is an amazing instrument! Particularly the weighted keys...as close to an acoustic piano ( which I have) as I imagine can be achieved. My son and daughter, both 13 years of age and beginner piano students, are in love with it.

Loved it! The sound is phenomenal! ❤️

Thanks to @jordandanielspiano

I use this digital piano for practicing at home and it's been great. It's also a cheap option for gigging and it adds a touch of style to my home decor.

I use this digital piano for practice at home and I'm very satisfied with it. It's also a great option for those looking for a gigging piano.

I love using this digital piano for learning. The keys are smooth and easy to play, making it a great tool for exercising my mind and exploring music.

I bought this digital piano as a gift for my granddaughter and she absolutely adores it. It's a perfect gift for teenagers who are interested in learning the piano.

I appreciate that this digital piano comes with the ability to plug in headsets, which allows me to practice without disturbing others. The volume control is also a handy feature that lets me adjust the sound to an optimal level for my needs.

I use this digital piano for beginner piano lessons and it's been a great tool. It's user-friendly and has helped me progress in my piano learning journey.

I wanted an authentic piano experience and this digital piano delivered. It's easy to use and has beginner options that have helped me learn to play the piano.

This digital piano provides a realistic piano feel that is essential for proper touch and technique. As someone who has been playing the piano for years, I can attest that this feels just like a full-sized piano.

As someone who has played on many different types of pianos, this digital piano feels totally normal to me. The weighted keys and overall feel are very similar to professional pianos, and it's perfect for when I can't make it to a practice room.

I purchased this digital piano for my daughter who is learning to play the piano, and she absolutely loves it. She says it feels just like playing a real piano and has helped her develop control and precision in her playing.

With over 100 different tones to choose from, this digital piano has something for everyone. Whether you're in the mood for a classic piano sound or want to experiment with more unique tones, this instrument has it all.

I am blown away by how similar this digital piano feels to a real acoustic piano. The keys are weighted perfectly and provide a realistic piano feel that is essential for practicing and developing proper technique.

So when it came in one of the legs screws were not attached now since it something I could fix I did replace the screws and added two more recessed screws to secure it. Its heavy and not easy to return I did check it and it does sound really good but I think the quality control on the support peices needs work.

This digital piano has an awesome set of keys that feel just like the keys on a high-end concert piano. If you're a serious pianist, this is definitely the instrument you want to be practicing on.

The extensive selection of voices and rhythms on this digital piano is amazing. I love having the ability to switch up the sound and style of my playing with just the touch of a button. The recording function is also a great touch, allowing me to listen back to my sessions and track my progress over time.

Overall, I am extremely impressed with this digital piano. It feels just like a real piano and is perfect for practicing and developing your skills. Whether you're a beginner or a professional, this instrument will help take your piano playing to the next level.

This digital piano has so many features and options that I am still discovering new ones. The vast selection of sounds, rhythms, and tones is truly impressive and makes playing the piano even more enjoyable.

I am new to the Donner brand but after reading some reviews and watching videos from professional musicians playing on it, I decided to give it a try. My daughter and I have been playing piano for 7 years (I consider myself a beginner/intermediate) player so quality of the sound and feel of the keys were our biggest concerns. We like having weights keys so the feel is more like a standard upright piano and the sound coming from below the keyboard instead of on top gives it a more full sound. When you start playing the higher notes it can get a little tinny sounding, but again not being a professional it's not too much of a bother. Having the full body with pedals also makes sitting down to play feel more like your at a traditional piano instead of an electric one. Assembly was easy, but make sure to lay out all the pieces where you are going to assemble. Having another person around is useful just to help hold some pieces and to lift the keyboard into place. I love the options for the reverb and different instruments that can be played, however I don't like that the last selection you set isn't able to be saved. Every time I sit down to play I need to change my settings because it defaults back to the original settings. When setting the touch sensitivity, it's actually what I could consider reversed. If I want a more authentic touch, a light press gives you a light sounds or hard press gives a loud sound, it needs set to Soft touch. I am sure we haven't even begun to explore all the setting available on this beautiful piano, but playability is wonderful and I'm happy to have purchased it.

What I love about this digital piano is that it has numerous modes and options that allow me to customize my playing experience. I particularly enjoy using the music templates, which help me improve my skills while playing along to different genres of music.

While there are certainly more functions than I know how to use, I appreciate that this digital piano is designed to be easy to operate. The many voices and recording options provide endless possibilities for creativity, making this instrument perfect for both novice and experienced pianists alike.

Looks like it ould be a good instrument, but the delivery included the wrong parts

This is an absolutely stunning electric piano, the look and feel are more like a real piano - and a very high quality one at that! My Mom was a church organist and we always had an upright piano in the house. I wanted the same experience for my kids, but buying and moving a real piano just wasn't in the cards (not to mention the required annual maintenance - professional tuning, etc). Enter the Donner 88-key digital piano! This is no ordinary electric piano - the action and quality of the keys mimic that of a grand piano! The finish is that of a high quality piece of wood furniture and the sound quality is absolutely stunning! It sounds so much like a real piano, I honestly forgot I was playing an electric! 5-melodic-stars!

This piano is amazing. It has over 135 different key sounds and percussion. We have another lighter weight piano that we started my son on and it isn’t close. He loved the first one. This one has really solid weighted keys that feel very much like a real piano. This piano is a bit bigger but is better in every way. It has a retractable key cover, Bluetooth onboard, comes with a wired headset and holder under the keyboard, and has nice size powerful speakers that can fill a room with sound. Plus, it just looks good with polished accents throughout. The pedals are also very functional. The base has gliders of some sort that make moving this heavy (over 100lbs) piano easy. Donner has just really thought of everything here. If you are looking for a fairly priced piano to get started, this is an easy recommendation. Even experienced players will enjoy this. Also, there is a Donner app and this piano includes free online lessons with it. Nice touch. Buy with complete confidence.

I have been learning piano for 10 years, and I stopped for a few years because of busy work, until this year I bought a Donner digital piano. It's a big guy, but easy to assemble, and it's good value for money, out of my expectations,. I am so happy to have it and make it a part of our family. Everyone who came to our house complimented it.

As for the keys, it has a good touch feeling. Unlike ordinary electric pianos, the keys are real piano weights. I need to hit it with more force in the bass and just a light touch in the treble, which stimulates my fingers and increases the flexibility of my hand.

Nice piano and great customer service to help me resolve an issue when putting together. Thank you again for your help and patience!!

This piano is far from perfect, but it is still a very welcome, affordable (for pianos) addition to our household.

Highly recommend this digital piano to beginners.

I like the quality of the sound, and the responsiveness on my computer. A little more expensive than other digital pianos of Donner.

This piano is good and at this price, it has several awesome features. I love the weighted keys and the sound quality overall is great. It has a variety of functions, such as 128 voice polyphony, 138 tones（includes 128 musical instruments sound and 10 drum voice tones), 100 rhythm styles, 20 demo songs, 100 etudes, chorus, mixing effects, timbre, rhythm storage banks, intro/ outro accompaniment, A/B interludes selection. With IOS, Android, and USB MIDI connection with computer.

As for function, the keys are indeed weighted which makes playing feel better and helps control how loud each note is played. The keys are evenly spaced with no weird gaps or spaces. I like 'em, but I'm not finicky either. It can do a little recording, but the reality is that you'll just run MIDI into a computer for that. Selecting voices is a bit slow and clunky because you have to press a button to move from one to the next. Holding the button down does get it to scan, but the scan is slow. It would be better to have a knob that you just crank to get where you want. The voices it does have are nice and huge fun to play with.

Nice setting.

The pedals feel almost same as real piano.

Easy to learn. Great weighted keys for the price. Good for kids and beginners.

Beautiful at home.

Bigger than expected. Makes the living room looks great. Great sound control in Grapevine keys. Comes with headphones which is good good for the kids plan.

We are not pros, not even close. Don't know how to play anything more than an off key hot cross buns. This seems like a great piano to learn on. Putting it together was a pain, the instructions were not helpful. Turning it on, and switching through the options is easy.

The sliding keyboard cover is solid and smoothly slides to open and close.

Good.

Works exactly as described! A+ highly recommended!

The digital piano was a gift to our daughter. My husband is teaching her. The sound is beautiful, the piano looks great too. We did order a Donner piano bench for this. Assembly was easy and we are quite happy with this.

It's a beautiful looking upright electric piano, and it sounds really nice. No, it doesn't sound exactly like a real piano, but I didn't expect it to. For what it is, I really enjoy it, and it's an instrument that not only looks great but inspires me to sit down and practice at it. Beautiful piano - and sounds very natural.

This is really a beautiful electric piano. I got this to replace an older electric keyboard I've been using on a stand. The upright-design of the piano with the sliding key cover really transformed my room and my practice experience. It just feels so much better to actually sit down in front of a "real" piano, uncover the keys, and start making music. I also love the built in music stand and the fact that this piano is large enough that you can actually set things on it, so it really is functional in more ways than one. The appearance is quite elegant, it's very heavy, and the wood has a nice natural grain to it. The "progressive hammer action" keys are really nice, they feel just like the real thing to me. Much better than my previous piano that just had weighted keys. The hammer action is a big improvement in touch and sensitivity in my opinion. The sound is excellent. The traditional piano sounds are very natural, much less "digital" sound than my previous electric keyboard, and it really inspires me to just sit down and play. The volume and projection are great as well, the sound really envelopes you, and it sounds quite big. I also really enjoy the huge range of musical instruments to mess around with (128 instruments). I am not a classically trained musician, but I really love being able to sit down and improvise with a wide range of sounds.

I love the style & color of this piano, really suit our home well!!!!. This is a great digital piano for beginners. I haven't discovered everything of it yet but, I am happy to have it. It is beautiful & compact. Perfect for small spaces & great addition for your home decor. I highly recommend Donner DDP-400 digital piano.

Won't replace the real thing, but it's a great substitute!

This is an absolutely stunning electric piano, the look and feel are more like a real piano - and a very high quality one at that! My Mom was a church organist and we always had an upright piano in the house. I wanted the same experience for my kids, but buying and moving a real piano just wasn't in the cards (not to mention the required annual maintenance - professional tuning, etc). Enter the Donner 88-key digital piano! This is no ordinary electric piano - the action and quality of the keys mimic that of a grand piano! The finish is that of a high quality piece of wood furniture and the sound quality is absolutely stunning! It sounds so much like a real piano, I honestly forgot I was playing an electric! 5-melodic-stars!

Excellent! I like that it has the built-in key cover.

I'd recommend assembling this with another person.

Ii's so fancy. Great alternative to an upright acoustic piano

This is a very good-looking electric piano. The assembly was not too complicated. Sound is good with many options. The volume control is easy to use. It's nearly perfect except for the uncanny feel of the keys.

I was contacted by Donner and was impressed at their customer support. They fixed the issue with little to no effort on my end and now I have a 100% intact and functioning piano.

Overall the piano looks and sounds great. However, instructions are poorly written (or poorly translated) and the slider handle was ripped off prior to opening. 2 of the screws came out of it and are yet to be found and, due to the construction, it I'd impossible to screw them back in without taking the entire cabinet apart. Was able to salvage with gorilla wood glue and clamps, but was incredibly disappointed at the lack of build quality the main host possesses.

expensive but worthwhile!

This piano exceeds my expectations. I highly recommend buying this product. However, I don't use any of the fancy technical stuff. This is only a piano for me to practice on and I haven't even listened to the domo tracks. It sounds wonderful and is a delight to the fingers. I think I enjoy this more than I would a real piano. Really, it is just that good.

Very beaytiful

I've been playing and performing on the piano for over a decade now, and I'm super picky about what piano I play on. This digital piano surprisingly sounds well and also has a decent touch when playing long sessions. I'm currently using this to also write and compose music on my M1 MacBook Air, and it connects seamlessly. The surface finish is very convenient for anyone who reads sheet music or a place to put their laptop/tablet on. Set up and assembly took a little bit longer because the keyboard itself is heavy. I'd recommend assembling this with another person to properly seat the keyboard onto the stand. There is no bench which is a bummer, but at least I am having a ball playing on this digital piano. There are a bunch of sounds integrated into the keyboard, two-speaker systems which sound nice, especially in the living room, and even a headphone mount to store the included headphones. Overall, this is a nice and fancy keyboard I'd recommend for any amateur or beginner looking for a quality set of hammered keys they'll enjoy for years to come.

Works exactly as described! A+ highly recommended!

Could not be more happy and impressed. Works as it should and has all the options you could ask for. Easy to put together.
