A Description of What is a Console Piano

• A piano with an upright rectangular body and with its strings running vertically
• The console piano, also known as the vertical piano. The strings are mounted vertically, as opposed to the grand. Console pianos are commonplace for use in the home as they occupies much less space and produce ample volume for the living room.
• A console piano is between 40 inches to 44 inches, in this style of instrument, the action sits directly on top of the keys, with smaller hammers and the strings stretching downward.
• This size piano is more desirable over a spinet, not only for its size (more soundboard) but also because the direct blow action is more efficient and responsive to the player’s touch.
• Most consoles are recognized by the fact they don’t have legs underneath the keyboard. Any other way is to check the height of the piano.

Preventative Maintenance and Longevity
Upright pianos may cost more than a Console and Spinet. Be sure to:

• Schedule a tuning at least once per year
• Avoid placing your piano direct sunlight or near fireplaces, radiators, or other items that extrude fluctuating levels of heat or humidity
• It helps to have a Dehumidifier unit installed
• Feather dust or use specialty piano-cleaning products
• Never keep liquids on or near the piano
