I am looking to purchase a digital piano, money is a little tight so looking for something $1,000 or less. I've done some research and was thinking of purchasing the YDP213. I am a beginner player, just recently started lessons, wanted something decent to progress on. Any feedback would be great. Thanks

the specs of YDP213 are not bad, but be aware of GHS action on it which may feel not quite the same as GH action. i'd suggest you try it and see if you like the feel before buying it.

YDP213 is fine but the sound is kinda on the weak side, especially the low register. Alternatively, you can try Yamaha's P140, which features Dynamic Stereo Sampling and will sound a lot better. It is a couple hundreds buck more but I think you might like it better. Go try them both and let us know which one you like.
