This is the absolute most bottom end digital that I would consider and that's because of it's action in a less than $1000 piano. Click on the video the guy will explain the features: https://www.kraftmusic.com/korg-sp-250-portable-digital-stage-piano-home-essentials-bundle.html

If you want something less expensive than this piano you will have to rely on other peoples opinions. As you drop under $500 a lot of people seem to like the Casios.

Depressing the pedal on an out of tune acoustic piano and playing does not result in tonal color control or add interest, it's called obnoxious.

That seems to be worth it the price, but I'm not sure what to buy yet, but that's going to be one of my choices. Thanks

i agree that at the bottom of the marketplace Casio's are pretty decent for their price point. i have an inexpensive casio i use occassinally for late night/early am practice when work on my grand isn't a very good idea.  i've been pretty happy with it. not thrilled but happy enough.

you should also look at perhaps trying to get a really nice deal on a babied/slightly used/well cared four higher end one, i.e. a kawai, etc. get a wooden action, better components and build quality, etc
