Quick Product Summary

The Roland KIYOLA KF-25 in Smoked Oak brings together premium digital piano performance and exceptional Japanese furniture design. Created in collaboration with Karimoku, the KF-25 uses clean lines, striking right angles and traditional Sashimono-inspired joinery to create an instrument that feels equally at home as a serious piano and a distinctive piece of contemporary furniture.

At its heart are Roland's Piano Reality Modeling technology and premium PHA-50 88-note hybrid keyboard, providing detailed sound and expressive control. A four-speaker system, Progressive Damper Action, Bluetooth connectivity and an included matching bench complete a sophisticated home piano package.

What Makes the Roland KIYOLA KF-25 Special?

The KF-25's design combines Japanese and Scandinavian influences in a distinctive Japandi-inspired cabinet. Its deep Smoked Oak finish highlights the natural wood grain, while the angular construction uses the traditional Sashimono approach of joining wooden sections cleanly at right angles without visible nails.

Musically, the KF-25 is equally refined. Roland's PHA-50 hybrid action combines wood and moulded materials with escapement, Ebony/Ivory Feel surfaces and High Precision Sensing, while Piano Reality Modeling recreates the complex response and resonances of an acoustic piano in real time.

• Intermediate and advanced pianists

• Premium home piano installations

• Contemporary and design-led interiors

FAQs

What makes the KF-25 different from the KIYOLA KF-20?

The KF-25 uses a more angular, architectural cabinet with a Smoked Oak finish and Sashimono-inspired construction. The KF-20 has a softer appearance with flowing curves, while both share Roland's premium piano technology.

What does Japandi mean?

Japandi combines elements of Japanese and Scandinavian design, focusing on simplicity, natural materials, craftsmanship and clean functional forms. This influence is particularly visible in the KF-25's straight lines and understated wood finish.

What is Sashimono construction?

Sashimono is a traditional Japanese woodworking technique in which sections of wood are joined precisely without relying on visible nails. It contributes to the KF-25's distinctive clean, angular appearance.

Does the KF-25 come with a piano bench?

Yes. A dedicated fixed-height bench designed to complement the KF-25 is included.

Is the three-pedal unit also included?

Yes. The matching pedal unit is supplied and provides Damper, Soft and Sostenuto functions.

Is the Smoked Oak finish real wood?

The cabinet incorporates handcrafted solid wood, allowing natural grain variations to contribute to the appearance of each instrument. Manufactured wood is also used in areas that interface directly with electronic and mechanical components for improved dimensional stability.

Can I expand the number of available sounds?

Yes. While six sounds can be selected directly from the piano, the Roland Piano App provides access to the full selection of 54 available tones.

Can I use the KF-25 with a recording computer?

Yes. The USB Type-C connection supports compatible USB Audio and MIDI, allowing the piano to integrate with suitable recording, notation and music-production software.

Can I play songs from my phone through the piano?

Yes. Bluetooth Audio allows compatible smartphones and tablets to stream music through the KF-25's integrated speaker system.

Can I use two sets of headphones?

Yes. Both miniature and standard 1/4-inch headphone sockets are provided, allowing two compatible wired headphone sets to be connected simultaneously.

Is the KF-25 suitable for an advanced pianist?

Yes. The PHA-50 action, High Precision Sensing, Piano Reality Modeling and progressive damper pedal provide the control required for advanced technique and expressive piano performance.

Does the KIYOLA KF-25 require tuning?

No. As a digital piano, it does not require the periodic tuning associated with an acoustic piano.
