The single sustain pedal, however, did not receive so much praise. While it is not meant for handling 220V (and hence cannot be used in foreign countries) the build quality of the unit and the length of the power cord were good enough for us and most of the users we talked with. Speaking of accessories, we noticed that the unit comes with a rather dependable power adapter. A few users wondered whether Yamaha should have included a carry case with the package but most agreed that manufacturers rarely provide such cases even in case of extremely highly priced models so expecting one from the P45B would be too much. Once this is done, we simply have to plug in the adapter into a powerpoint to start the unit. If you still choose to go with the basic model, you can easily place the unit on a desk and then proceed to attach the included music stand.

Unlike many of the popular learner’s units that require one to follow the tips for cleaning piano keys all too often, the Yamaha P45 comes with a build quality that ensures limited dust and dirt collection on the keys and other parts of the keyboard.
