Please, comment your opinion on 5' grand pianos of the above manufacturers.

We are thinking to buy one of them. But we would like to have advices from you.

Thanks !

Pretty bottom of the line.  You'd be better off with a PG series Young Chang or something like a Nordiska, Hallet, Davis, etc.

I am probably going to get flamed for saying this but here it goes anyway… 

Both of these are only nominally better than a good quality digital piano.  IMO they may even be worse than some top-of-the-line digitals.  If you MUST buy a new unit, save your money for a little while longer and get yourself a better quality grand or just buy yourself an upright.
