Good for beginners, but...
I used to think that this piano sounds pretty good, until I tried using headphones when playing and realized how much better it sounded. Now it's impossible for me to play using the regular speakers, the piano really sounds like a toy. However, for someone just starting out, it's a good quality piano. I've had it for about three years and haven't had any issues at all. Just keep in mind that you may want to upgrade to a better sounding piano after a while.

Feels good, sounds a bit less good.
Great touch, but could sound more convincing. I mainly use the P-45B as a MIDI-controller for soft synths and piano plugins. It's pretty great for that, the weight of the keys is pretty realistic, compared to an actual piano.
The onboard piano sounds seem okay at first, but they become a bit unrealistic when using a sustain pedal. Then, it becomes pretty obvious that you're dealing with something digital.
One other thing I kind of disliked is the weight, it's still relatively heavy for a stage piano.
If you are looking for a decent entry level piano to study or to play low key gigs, this Yamaha will do. But if you are looking for something that has both a realistic feel and sound, you should definitely go for brands like Nord.

Could be better.
It's kind of good for the price, but you really get what you pay for. I'd not mind paying 50Eur more to get BETTER KEYBOARD in this piano. Sounds are kind of ok, but really, could be a bit better for a little more money. Sadly no competition in this price category.

A good deal for this price
I bought this for a rehearsal room at our church.
PRO: The piano sound is okay and the keys action is good for the price range.
Lightweight, easy to manipulate.
Although it's made of plastic, it's quite solid and materials are okay.
CONS: Almost all function buttons have been replaced with a FUNCTION + key combination which makes it difficult to use and you always have to refer back to the user guide should you want to use layer, split, transpose, velocity level adjustment etc.

good sound but...
Sound and key feeling is OK, but the loudspeaker volume is too low. Also, the phones jacks are non standard jack for headphones. I expected more for its price!
