Established in 1853, Steinway & Sons commands a reputation for producing pianos unlike any other. Steinway pianos feature unparalleled beauty, craftsmanship and endurance, as well as a rich and powerful performance that defines the Steinway sound. Over the last century and a half, Steinway has received several patents for piano components that revolutionized the piano and positioned Steinway as the industry leader. Each new Steinway piano offers improvements upon earlier models, while used Steinways can retain their exceptional quality for decades.

Despite market changes and fluctuations, Steinway pianos have reliably appreciated ever since their invention. As each new model is released, the factory price of a Steinway piano and the value of existing models increase. Each year, Steinway piano prices rise about four percent. The price of a 50-year-old Steinway piano is more than nine times its original cost. With the cost of Steinway pianos continually rising, a Steinway piano is a worthwhile investment for any pianist or piano enthusiast.

Steinway pianos are highly valuable because of their excellent construction materials and the advanced construction techniques used. The Steinway Diaphragmatic soundboard is a signature component of Steinway grand and upright pianos that produce their distinctive Steinway sound. The patented Steinway Hexagrip pinblock features seven laminations laid with successive 45- and 90-degree grain orientations to provide superior tuning.

Grand and upright Steinway pianos feature many solid wood components and overall exceptional craftsmanship. When comparing styles of Steinway pianos, upright pianos are the most affordable, followed by grand pianos. Specialty pianos and other limited edition Steinway pianos are typically the most expensive due to their rarity.

The cost of a Steinway grand piano depends on the model and the finish. New Steinway grand pianos produced in the Queens, New York, factory are available in six different models with four standard finishes available. With each increasing in price, the available finishes are satin ebony, polyester-polished ebony, polyester-polished ebony with sterling hardware and lacquer-polished ebony.

Steinway produces several specialty pianos that offer unique aesthetic appeal for concert performance or elegant home design. The Pops Collection boasts vibrant color accents, while the Onyx Duet features a polished ebony exterior finish with bold Macassar ebony accents under the lid and inner rim.

The Crown Jewels Collection offers 10 unique finishing options, including rich Mahogany and speckled Amber wood veneers. In the Crown Jewels Collection, Macassar ebony veneer is the most expensive finishing option available. This exotic wood is grown in limited habitats in Southeast Asia and features a dramatic striped grain. A Model D Steinway grand piano with a Macassar ebony finish is priced at $224,100.

Steinway also produces pianos featuring period designs, such as the Louis XV and the Chippendale. Pianos from the Steinway Special Collections are more valuable than those with a standard design and finish. Steinway also offers Limited Edition models that are released at irregular intervals. These rare Steinway pianos are typically the most expensive and offer excellent appreciation value.

In reality, new Steinway pianos feature the same excellent design and quality that has kept Steinway pianos at the forefront of the industry. The exceptional performance of new Steinway pianos is evidenced by the use of Steinways less than 10 years old in professional concert halls around the world.

Because Steinway pianos are designed to be rebuilt, used Steinway pianos can also offer excellent quality. Steinway pianos can retain their original quality for decades if you properly repair and maintain them. However, when considering a used Steinway piano, buyers should pay close attention to the condition of the instrument and where it was rebuilt or repaired. Not all piano rebuilders use genuine parts from Steinway when restoring a piano, which compromises the value and performance of the piano. Poor execution of repairs can also cause damage and lower the performance quality of a piano.

If a Steinway piano is rebuilt, it is paramount authentic Steinway parts be used. Steinways that are rebuilt with non-Steinway parts will not provide an authentic Steinway sound and have lower investment value. However, some piano rebuilders may use non-Steinway parts in repairs to cut expenses. These companies may not identify Steinways they repaired using non-Steinway parts. When shopping for a used Steinway piano, ask for written verification that the piano was restored with genuine parts.

When determining the right Steinway piano for your budget, consider the size, style and features you desire. Are you seeking a classic Steinway grand piano or a smaller Steinway upright piano for an apartment or classroom? When choosing the best model of Steinway grand piano, consider the space you have available and how you will use your piano. While smaller models are appropriate for home use, a larger model is the preferred choice for studios and concert halls. When choosing a Steinway piano for home or concert use, you may also consider aesthetic features, such as the finish or veneer.

Remember, buying a Steinway piano is an investment, not just a purchase. Steinway pianos appreciate over time, with each new model causing the value of existing models to rise, as well. The legendary history of Steinway piano appreciation means the best time to invest in a Steinway piano is always the present.

Used Steinway pianos are available from a wide variety of sources, including online listings and physical music stores. Individual sellers may list their used piano on sites like Craigslist or Facebook or sell them through a piano repair company. Steinway pianos may also be found in consignment stores or discovered in antique shops.

Those shopping for a used Steinway piano often turn to piano and music stores, because shops seem like a trustworthy source for genuine Steinway pianos. However, many shops price their used Steinways thousands of dollars higher than the actual appraised value. Buying from individual sellers can also lead to paying too much for a poorly maintained Steinway piano or falsely advertised Stein-Was.

Each Steinway brand offers great quality and Coach House Pianos is proud to offer a range of second-hand Steinway grand and upright pianos from each branch of the Steinway family that sit at various price points to suit a range of budgets.

Grand pianos provide concert-quality sound and are most appropriate for professional pianists and advanced piano players with sufficient space available to house these substantial instruments. Grand pianos offer superior sound quality to all other pianos due to the horizontal action of the hammers on the extra-long piano strings that their longer cases accommodate. When you strike a key on a grand piano, the corresponding hammer works with gravity to strike the appropriate strings and rebound, yielding notes that are repeated more reliably, with more consistent tone and with more nuanced expression than an upright piano with its vertical, mechanized-recall hammer action provides. Since grand pianos of all sizes work this way, your space constraints and budget will likely be the primary factors in your choice between a semi-concert grand piano, a grand piano, a baby grand, and a petite baby grand.

We put each of our used grand pianos through an in-depth reconditioning process before placing them in our showrooms for sale to ensure the highest sound quality, overall performance and visual aesthetic available among used grand pianos.
