Toys and Games Reviews of Fisher-Price I Can Play Piano System
Customer Review: My 7 year old loves it
Summary: 4 Stars
I didn't expect this to give the same results as music lessons. I was just hoping it would be a fun toy that would keep my 7.5 year old daughter creatively occupied. It does just that. She quickly caught on to the "video game" style of playing along with a song, enjoys the games and freestyle modes, and also likes disconnecting from the TV and experimenting with it as a standalone keyboard. She and her little brother are putting on a little show right now.
I'm a little leery of the quality. The power button is a little tempermental, the adapter is tempermental, and the cartridge seating is tempermental. But once we learned those quirks, it's working fine.

Great product. I have the earlier version, that I got in Jan of this year. It's something that my kids aged 1 1/2 to 9 1/2 play often. The keyboard I have, a different model, is of great quality and can be used as a general midi keyboard w/o the software. I am assuming this one can do that too.
I didn't know they had Nick characters in their software now, so I'll definitely be buying those additional games. My software is themed (ie fish for one song, kites, caterpillars for others. Characters, I'm sure, will make it better too.
My only complaint was the software was kinda dull, but from the looks of the commercials, this software w/the nick characters should be great.
Customer Review: Another dead piano
Summary: 1 Stars
My daughters I Can Play just died in exactly the same fashion as described by many of the reviews listed before. She was able to use it for three weeks, but now it won't power on at all.
We've tried all three of her cartidges, made sure that they were correctly inserted, and have tried holding the power button for a full minute to see if it would finally power on. No luck. Worse yet, I swear you can hear a faint crackling after holding the button for 30 seconds or so. A serious short somewhere?
My daughter loved this toy. I haven't contacted Fisher Price yet, but I'm hoping their customer service department is better then their quality control department.
Customer Review: I Can Play Piano is a good product
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter, age 4, received this for Christmas and loved it. She is probably a little young for it, but she seems to do fine with it. You can easily change the tempo to slow down the songs. Even my wife and I tried it out.
Before I even read any of the reviews on this site, I thought we might have a defective one. I had trouble turning the power on one day - the light would just flicker on and off. I realized that the cartridge was not in properly. Once I put it back in all the way, it functioned normaly. I have not had any other problems with it.
I think any budding pianist would have a great time learning with this product.
Customer Review: Bad, Faulty Power Button possibly Dangerous product
Summary: 1 Stars
Stay away from this product. I bought it for xmas along with two extra cartridges. Like everyone else said, I have had to fuss and fidget with the power button and now it doesn't work at all so I'm forced to dig through the xmas receipts and return the faulty product alwhilst thinking of a good explaination why Santa made such a turd. Yes we made sure we had the cartridge in, I've held the button down forever, it's just a nightmare and even if I could get it to work I don't want my daughter having a toy in her room that has obvious electrical problems. Sounds like a fire waiting to happen. It's going back for a refund or straight to the garbage.
