Portland Piano Company — Local services in Portland

Portland Piano Company is amazing!

A couple of years ago, PPC donated a beautiful baby grand piano to be auctioned at a charity event to benefit CureJM, an organization funding research to cure children suffering from a rare autoimmune disease (juvenile dermatomyositis). I have a very personal connection to this charity, as my nephew suffered with the disease and ultimately passed away at age 10. For years, I have attended the yearly events, and for as long as I can remember, Ron Allen, who works for Portland Piano Company, has passionately served as the evening’s auctioneer.

Every year there are different and special auction items, but a couple years ago, PPC donated a piano, and my husband and I were thrilled to be the winning bidders. PPC reached out right away to schedule delivery. My husband and I were building a new home, and we inquired about holding off on delivery until our new home was completed. We thought it would only be a year or so. We offered to pay for storage. The owner, Mitch Paola, insisted on covering the storage fees and agreed to store the piano until our house was done.

We experienced many construction delays and instead of a completion date of summer 2017, our house was not completed until February 2019. I contacted Ron Allen as soon as we were ready for delivery, and PPC unwrapped, cleaned, tuned, and delivered our piano in a matter of days.

I’ve been touched by this whole experience for a few reasons: 1) one of PPC’s employees, Ron Allen, has given his time, energy, and talents to help CureJM raise money year after year; 2) PPC donated an expensive and beautiful instrument for charity; and 3) Mitch Paola and Ron Allen went above and beyond in customer service, storing our piano much longer than anticipated, and getting it delivered so quickly — all without charging us a dime. They got nothing for the piano or all that extra effort.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your charitable donation and for the extremely kind and generous way we were treated.

If anyone is in the market for a piano, Portland Piano Company is the kind of company you should want to support. I will recommend them to everyone I...

I am on cloud 9 with my awesome piano. a Boston Grand that we had outfitted with the latest technology QRS system AND also the recording strip function. I'm new at playing piano, just learning to read music, but having such a beautiful sounding piano gives me inspiration to practice several hours a day...so far I've mastered a few pieces like Bachs Prelude & Fuge in C major well enough to post on YouTube. I love the fact that IF i want to upgrad to something even "grander" than my Boston Grand...they'll credit me what I paid...its a win win situation and I may take them up on this offer, but only IF I become much better at playing piano...something I've wanted to do since I was a toddlar, but never got what I begged, pleaded and cried for too many years until now. I'm 66 yrs old, so i'm on a fast-pace learning challange...no time to waste so I spend at least several hours practicing. And when i want to listen to Liberace, or Manheim Steamroller, I log onto PNO3 QRS system and enjoy having most beautiful music played by the best of the best. We're hosting musical "concerts" in our home...just have my piano playing flawlessly...people are amazed and impressed. A big thanks to Park Lafeit who's been helping me for over a year in choosing a piano I loved as well as negotiating a great deal...i feel like i got a very good deal after doing some research and shopping online, i know I made the right choice with purchasing from Portland Piano Co. Mitch and Brenda were very helpful in getting my piano ready, sooner than expected and delivered on time too! I have to pinch myself everytime I sit on my piano bench every single morning and its hard not to play early in the mornings or middle of the night, and wake everyone up! PS...my piano teacher LOVES my piano, so she's enjoying playing it as well...we in turn get to enjoy her talents as she's a gifted musician, has been playing 60+ yrs....she makes my Boston SING...

I have never purchased a piano before, and was a little unsure of things, but working with Justin I felt assured that all along the way that I was in good hands. Last spring I started thinking about buying a digital piano. I like playing Christian music and to me some songs sound better on an organ than a piano, but I still wanted the piano option since my wife plays the piano. I read and listened to review after review and finally decided to buy the Kawai ES8. Just as I was about ready to buy one, Kawai announced it was releasing the ES920, so the ES8 was obsolete. I was having a hard time online finding a local dealer that sold Kawai digital pianos, so I called Kawai, and they recommended Portland Piano Company. I called Portland Piano and asked them if they could get me the ES920. At that time there was no firm shipment date from Kawai. They had ordered several, but there was no guarantee that they were going to come in any time soon. One day I received a call from Justin saying he was holding one for me even though they only received a small portion of the number they ordered. There was a tremendous demand for the piano and all of the piano manufacturers were having supply chain issues ,so I felt really special getting one. At the same time I purchased the piano I also purchased a bench and headphones. Since the piano doesn't have a built-in cover, Justin had a piano cover custom-made for my piano. I am very pleased with the piano. It has a very robust speaker system. In addition to the piano and organ tones, I like to combine some of the other sounds line choir, harpsichord and strings. I am very pleased with my purchase and would definitely recommend...
