hardman and peck pianos?

[shotkong64x]

Hiya

i want piano shopping the other day at a place that was havin some kind of huge sale.  And i came across this hardman and peck upright piano that was marked down from 8k to 3k  (Brand new, unused).  I dont remember the exact name of the piano, but i was just curious if hardman and peck pianos are good in general.  Im just starting out, so it definitely is not permanent.  I do plan on getting a baby grand eventually if i stick with playing (which i probably will)  and if i do buy it, i can exchange it for full price for a grand piano sometime down the line.  I played a little bit on it, and it felt great, but I just want some feedback on the company itself.
