Want to buy a keyboard with touch sensitive Keys

A question about : Want to buy a keyboard with touch sensitive Keys

I'm looking to get a keyboard for DS3 for Christmas. I don't play any instruments so don't really know where to start but gather touch sensitive keys would be good.

I've been looking at the reviews on Amazon but wonder if anybody on here could give some tips as to what to look for.

Many thanks

Best answers:

• Budget?
  Take it you want this as a substitute for a real piano, not as a machine for making electronic music?
  'Touch sensitive' has a different meaning from 'weighted' or 'hammer action' ...
• The class teacher will be best placed to advise on what will be needed for the curriculum being followed .... Come back and let us know the result of this.
  What's your take on what style of music is to be played? If classical piano, you need to look at an 88-key electric piano with touch sens and a weighted or hammer-action keyboard - unfortunately, these, new, come in at the best part of Ј300, plus stand and stool.
