If the pianos have Keys that Stick, are they Worthless?



Saying a piano that has a sticking key is "worthless" is like saying your house is worthless if a door sticks when the humidity is up a little. Would you tear down a house because a door was sticking? Of course not.

Sticking keys is a common problem with pianos, and can happen to any of them. If you tossed out every piano that had a sticky key, you'd have to toss out every Steinway ever built, as well as most other pianos. Yamaha keys stick sometimes too - it's a maintenance issue, related to moisture, and easily solved. Most new pianos need prep work once they arrive at a dealer's store. A few simple adjustments and you're off to the races.
