I am looking for an upright piano. I am currently in grade 9 and feel that my small piano wont cut it anymore. The piano dealer said that petrof is the best…yet yamaha and kawai are more well known. Which type of piano will take less maintenance (tuning)? or are they all the same?
thanks alot!
Most people (if they actually answered the question!) would probably say Petrof. It’s not very well known, but I’ve played a handful of ‘em and I don’t really like them all that much. I think they’ll be a bit more expensive that Yamahas or Kawais too. Some Yamahas can be good, but they seem to sound a bit too bright for my tastes. Kawai would have to be my favorite out of the three. It really depends on the piano though.
Out of the three, Kawai is probably the one which will hold it’s tuning the longest.

I have a 6' grand Kawai. It hasn't been tuned in over 2 years and is just now starting to need to be tuned.

Yes, I am very happy with my Kawai Baby Grand holding the tuning. If you are still looking for a piano, it is for sale. 10/2010
