The cost of a piano varies widely based on the type and quality of the instrument:
- Upright pianos typically range from about $3,000 to $10,000 for new ones, while used upright pianos can cost between $500 and $5,000.
- Grand pianos start at around $20,000 for new entry-level models and can go well over $100,000 for high-end concert grands. Used grand pianos can range from $5,000 to $50,000.
- Digital pianos are more affordable options, ranging from $100 for basic models up to over $20,000 for professional digital pianos.
The price depends on factors like brand, size, condition, and craftsmanship. For example, Yamaha and Steinway are premium brands with higher prices. Maintenance and moving costs should also be considered in the total expense of owning a piano.
