It's way more like a real piano than anything I've ever met in the keyboard department. They keys respond properly, though they're a bit clunky and noisy (really noticable if you've got the volume turned way down) - I guess it's quite like a slightly downmarket piano. Certainly not like the nice grands they had available to use in college :)
Then again, it is really quite a cheap digital piano. Some of the ones they had in the shop that were well up in the thousands were very, very like playing a good piano. But mine's definitely close enough to be fun to play if you're used to a piano. I guess a concert pianist would find it a bit limiting, but I'm very happy with it.
For moving and such, the things sold as 'stage pianos' (ie like a keyboard, with a stand, rather than a piece of furniture) might be reasonably easy to shift about. I don't know, and I didn't try any of them out.
Obviously you're welcome to come round and have a play with mine if you'd like :)
