Decent case for Fantom 08, but we'll see how it holds up.
I bought this for use with a Roland Fantom 08. To say the fit is snug would be an understatement. The length is JUST sufficient, but that's probably good because there is no sliding back and forth. If all 88-key keyboards are the same length, then it's a great design. If your keyboard is a half inch longer, you may have trouble cramming it in. On the other hand, if yours is a few inches shorter (no mod wheels), you may need to cram in a towel or extra piece of foam to eat up the extra space.The straps are just ok. They hold snugly, but I wish the placement was adjustable. One side goes over a bunch of knobs, which worries me a little bit. I'd prefer to move it to the side a few inches where there aren't any controls.The zippers -- only time will tell. They feel a bit cheap. Fortunately I only gig once or twice a month, so it should last a while. I'd be more concerned if I was moving this several times a week. For now (after 3 uses) it's holding steady.

Zipper failed after a few years, price almost doubled
Yes, I bought 2 of these!?! Bear with me:I'm a part-time amateur keyboard player. I gig about 6-8 times a year. I first bought this case in 2016 because I wanted a lighter weight case than the SKB molded (35 lbs) that I had been using to transport my 50 lb. Roland stage piano.After less than a year, one of the zippers failed at one end. The case was still serviceable, so I continued to use it until about a month ago, when the other zipper failed and I had to pop it open. I used the SKB case for my next gig, but it's just too heavy for me (I'm retired now, and my back hurts every time I have to transport my gear). I'm playing out more often, and I need a lighter case; I can't find anyone who can repair the zipper for a reasonable price, and the cost to ship it anywhere for repair is more than half the cost of a brand new one, so I just bought another one.Unfortunately, the price has almost doubled ($200 in 2016, $380 in 2022). I'm just crossing my fingers that the new one will last at least another 4 years (I bought an extended warranty for it, something I almost never do). If it saves me from back injury, then I guess it will be worth it.

Make sure it the right size before you order it

Works, but could be better
Bought for my Nord Stage 2. I can fit the tri-pedal unit in the external pouch. Cables get stuck in the pouch and/or with the keyboard.Pros:- Sturdy. The bottom and sides are plastic for support. This thing is built to last.- Has good wheels. I've taken this case over smooth and rough terrain and I have no worries about damaging them or the keyboard inside.- Lots of pockets, including many sealed with zippers and Velcro.- Heavily padded interior with a simple but effective strapping systemCons:- The top is NOT rigid, so don't expect to be stacking a whole bunch of stuff on top of it. It also makes things awkward when you've got a lot of stuff in the pouch while you're trying to open/close the case.- Not enough handles on the outside! Anything beyond wheeling it around becomes a 2-man job or a very awkward 1-man job. Just having a handle on both sides of the case would have been magnificent. This is a real downer for me since I'm usually hauling my stuff solo.- Could have benefited from arm strap(s). This thing gets really freaking heavy when fully loaded and an arm strap could have really helped.- Top handle doesn't extend far enough. You end up holding the case away from you a bit while wheeling because the top of the case hits your legs/waist while you're walking around. Better than having no wheels for sure, but those long treks get uncomfortable holding it with your arm at a 35-degree angle.Overall, it's a good case despite the number of cons as it delivers on the most important requirements. Would buy again if I couldn't find something with more handles.

The case is quite nice. It stands on it's end when not in ...
I bought this case for my 52.5-inch long Yamaha P255 keyboard. It fits this case perfectly with just a tad over 1 inch to spare. (they put in an extra piece of foam padding that I use at the end of the keyboard to make it fit snug in the case) I should mention that I do not use the case often, but when I need it, I need it.The case is quite nice. It stands on it's end when not in use. The bottom and sides are rigid but the top is soft-shelled. The two retaining straps stay out of the way while you put the keyboard into the case, and then latch down with good velcro closings on the retaining straps, which have nice soft padding on the side that faces the keyboard. The zipper is a tad cranky going around the corners but is a good heavy-duty zipper. The end handle works well for me. I wish it had another handle or strap on or near the bottom end, it would be nice to have when loading it into a vehicle.The exterior pocket on the case will hold my power supply and sustain pedal, however my Yamaha's acrylic music stand is too long to fit in pocket. When loaded, this case plus my Yamaha is definitely heavy, so the wheels are very important to me, and they do roll well.All in all, the case is working well and the price was reasonable.The exterior of the case is about 60 inches long and you should not expect this case to fit in a standard car unless you have a really huge trunk or your back seats fold down.

Muy grande.
Esta bastante más grande de lo que lo imaginaba y pesa bastante ya con el teclado. Necesito reclinar los asientos para que entre y pierdo entre 2 y tres asientos del coche para que quepa. Le doy cuatro estrellas porque tiene las llantas y varias maneras de sostenerse, pero definitivamente le quedó muy grande a mi teclado a pesar de ser de 88 teclas.

KORG D-1用に購入
純正のケースがペラペラなのと肩掛けしかついていないので、KORG D-1を運ぶのにスリムタイプを購入しました。が、本体が16kgほどあるのでケースに入れると20kgぐらいになります。中には、押さえがついていて安心は安心ですが公共交通機関で移動するには、キャスターがあるとはいえかなりしんどいです。車で移動ならまだ…。階段、道の段差、まず女性には難しいと思いました。ですが、ケースとしての機能やクッション性、キャスターについてはとても良いです。背中に背負えたらとも思いましたが、背負えるのは鍵盤の長さは61か76までかと(長さ的に88鍵を背負うのは身長が要ります)中に入れて運ぶ機材、デジピの本体重量次第ですがケースとしての性能はとても良いと思います。

僅か数日でキャスターが破損
購入して一週間で、キャスター基部が壊れてしまいました。話になりません。

良い商品です。
YAMAHAの MONTAGE6用に購入しました。サイズはピッタリです。セミハードケースですが 機材の保護に関してはハードケースに引けを取りません。寸法合わせのクッションが付いていますので、スペースが空きすぎる場合にも対応しています。ただ、あまり重いキーボードにはお勧めできません。MONTAGE6は本体が15㎏あるので、このケースに入れての電車での移動は難しいです。キャスター付なので 転がす事はできても。これを持って駅のホームの階段は上れません。持ち上がりません。あくまで車での移動を前提に考えた方が良さそうです。電車で移動するなら、せいぜい10㎏くらいまでの軽い機材にしておいた方が良いと思います。

でかい
Roland RD-2000を入れてみましたが、ぴったりでした。ただしケース自体がたためるわけでもなく小さくもならないので運ぶとき以外は大きい分とても邪魔です。置く場所に困ります。結局キーボード二つ分場所取るわけですからね。そこらへんよく考えて購入された方がいいと思います。キーボードを入れた状態だと重くてとても一人では運ぶことができません。角にローラーがついてて引っ張って移動させることはできますが、段差があると大変だし斜めにして移動するときのバランスも難しいと感じました。リュックサックのように背負いバンドが付いていれば、何とか一人でも運べると思いました。
