Casio LK-100 Lighted Keyboard with Premium Accessories Package
$319.95
I bought this for my daughter, because, she just started taking lessons at school. She really does like it. It has quite a few bells and whistles on it, and is a teaching keyboard, that lights up the correct key's. Her teacher could not believe the price that I payed for it on Amazon. She has a similar one, and gave much more. We're satisfied customers.

Casio CTK-3000 Premium Pack with Power Supply, Keyboard Stand and Professional Closed Cup Stereo Headphones

Previous user has valid point.
Got package and plugged in power supply: No power.
Looked closely and this thing looks like its the kind of crap being peddled at flea markets.

Called AMS and they were nice enough to send me another which worked.

AMS is recommended. This POS power supply is not.

Lastly: Keyboard is an excellent product with the only issue of internal speakers not being loud enough (for me).
Best keyboard for the money.

The slightly curved design works well. It is comfortable to use, is quiet and the special keys especially the volume controls and calculator make it a winner.

Now, I have to admit that I was a bit nervous about buying a keyboard via the Internet, as I have never owned one beforehand. However, I wanted to learn how to play the piano and had heard that this was a good one to start with from several different piano teachers. Wow, this is quite the bargain. The keyboard comes with a stand, headphones (in case you don't want to run off all of your family and friends as you're learning to play), and also a power adapter. I was surprised to find out that the keyboard does not normally come with these features, (as they are traditionally sold separately), but this package comes with all of these features!

The keyboard comes with about 100 built-in songs, (a part of the Yamaha Educational Suite), which you can learn to play along with. (Personally, I have found it easier to buy the Bastien learning series books, as the songs that are included with this keyboard are in small print. This is just my experience, but since I am teaching myself to play, I have found these starter books to be a wonderful guide for an absolute beginner. I am already starting to play songs that I never dreamed possible! Wow, so cool...)

One thing that I really like about this keyboard is that it's piano voice sounds just like a high-quality grand piano. Best of all, the keyboard is very simple to use -- and not complicated.

One thing that I am disappointed in is that it does not come with a USB connection. Instead, I had to buy a MIDI-connector for $40 dollars, so I could connect it to my Mac. I wanted to record my playing, but quickly discovered that Apple's Garageband couldn't seem to work with it. Yes, I have read the instruction manual and followed its directions step-by-step, but still no results. Garageband claims that its connected, but no results.

Overall, this is a great keyboard for getting started. If you are hoping to record your music, you might want to check into a more expensive Yamaha model with a USB connector.
