Product Experience I own it
Closest Store Vancouver, British Columbia
Bought this for my Kurzweil Forte 7 - a 76 note keyboard. The keyboard is 1/2" wider than the inside of the case, but the case is flexible, so it slips in snugly but easily on the long dimension. The case is a decent compromise between weight/size and protection, especially since I don't let anyone else handle my equipment and I'm careful with it.
The main issue for me is the lack of handles compared to my previous case. If all you ever do is roll the case, it's fine. But when loading/unloading from your vehicle, or going up and down stairs, there is only a single handle on the side, and the straps are very long. As a result, the (heavy) keyboard swings like a pendulum on the strap handle, and it's quite difficult to tilt it or maneuver it up and down stairs, or to lift it onto a stage, etc. Directly-fixed/shorter soft handles (not long strap loops), and more of them, would make the case a lot more real-world useable & save one's back from the agony of awkwardly hoisting a weighty, partially dangling keyboard.
Like most non-flight cases, this one has limited padding, especially on the top panel area where fragile knobs/switches/displays are located. I also note that the keyboard is secured within the case by 2 velcro straps, which might place significant pressure on the top panel. So I purchased a piece of medium density foam that I place on top of and behind the keyboard. This better protects the top panel against impacts, and it also fills up the interior space a bit more, so that the keyboard is secured in its case by a wide piece of foam rather than only 2 straps.
