Ease of Use
:
10
I just use it as a piano with built in ir floppy disk midi accompaniments so I find it easy to use.
Features

I like the touch sensitive keyboard. The effects are lame. I can hardly hear a difference with them switched in or out. The big deal is that it has a built in floppy disk to play type 0 midi accompaniment files. It is the least expensive kb I found with a floppy disk drive.
Expressiveness/Sounds

I don;t have much to compare it with so I can't really rate it. It sounds ok to me.

This is my second Casio kb (I also have a CTK-611) and neither one has ever had a problem in home use.

Overall Rating

There is nothing else at its price with a built in floppy so yes I would buy it again. Note that it only plays type 0 midi files. I had to buy Cakewalk Express since it can save type 0 files and the sequencer I was using, Midi Orchestrator, only saved type 1 files.
