If you are performing student in US, and want to go to Piano competition, Petrof may not be a top choice, since its key action is so light, and you may have trouble when playing with stage's piano (usually Steinway with heavier key action). But if you want to top quality over the cost for you to play at home, Petrof is ones of the top. I had 1999 Petrof 6'4", and I had compare it with my sister's Mason 5'10" (the Petrof is cheaper), it sound and fell much better.

I used to own a Yamaha G6 and GH1, and the Petrof is definitly better than Yamaha G.

I have a Steinway D in my living room. It barely fit, but the movers managed somehow (not without a few scratches though )

That is without question the absolute best piano sold anywhere in the world. Or at least in my opinion (and a lot of other people's too I'm sure).
