It appears that the Yamaha EZ200 is inferior to the P70 because it has only 61 keys, is about a third of the weight, and the keys are not weighted. A student of mine currently has the EZ200 and she can't afford a good acoustic piano at this time, but the student needs a better instrument (she is a beginner, taking lessons on an acoustic piano). A friend of mine is selling his P70. Wondering if it would be a good enough upgrade for my student to purchase the P70. Thank you. Piano Teacher

An hammer action key can't compare to a synth keyboard. However, with a second hand instrument, you have to be carefull... Test each key and the headphones plug. I had some old synthesizers : one whose the headphone plug is too noisy, and an other whose the keyboard doesn't repond envenly... Unusable!
