From the Argos eBay site, this is a brand new 5 octave, full size keys, keyboard. Not a bad spec for under £51
I'm a piano teacher and this really wouldn't make a bad keyboard for a beginner as it does have the same size keys as a 'proper' piano, so it's easy to migrate from and if it's not for them, you're not going to lose a lot of money at £51 delivered!
It would last them for the first year, at least. After which they would need weighted keys and touch response but then you're talking £250+ to be honest so this is a great first step
This is £100 in store at Argos for some reason, making this a proper bargain. I would stock up but they're bulky old things!

You don't need an expensive instrument to become proficient.
My wife learnt how to play on a vicar's ropey old organ.

I'm a piano teacher and would encourage children to have these in their bedroom but to practise on a real piano if possible

I recommend only concert grand Bechsteins after RCM grade 2 but a baby grand from a German manufacturer will do until that point. Steinway is simply not up to the job! They are a shoddy US company pretending to be German. Look, one of their brands is ESSEX. Talk about a chavtastic lack of class.

What's worse? Making a funny comment that people enjoy, or reply negatively and pointlessly to the comment? Seems you also have nothing better to do!

You really have to pump the bellows on those older models to get anything out of the pipes. I bet she was pulling out all the stops.
