The Steinway O-180 – Grand Steinway character, perfectly designed for the home

The Steinway O-180, also known as the “Living Room Grand,” is Steinway’s largest small grand piano and offers an exceptional balance between domestic elegance and concert-level tonal quality. At 180 cm, this model delivers remarkably rich tone, powerful projection, and the signature depth for which Steinway is renowned worldwide, while its size integrates beautifully into refined living environments.

Thanks to its sophisticated scale design, rich bass foundation, and extraordinary responsiveness, the O-180 offers a playing experience that inspires both ambitious enthusiasts and professional pianists. This is not a compromise model, but a full Steinway with the soul, nuance, and expressive richness that have made the brand the absolute benchmark for more than 170 years.

SPIRIO | r – The world’s most advanced self-playing piano

SPIRIO | r is globally recognized as Steinway’s most innovative technological breakthrough: a system capable of reproducing and recording live piano performance with extraordinary precision, without compromising the pure acoustic Steinway experience. Unlike digital simulations, every nuance, resonance, and dynamic expression is heard through the original soundboard, strings, and action of your own Steinway grand piano.

The result is astonishing: an experience in which the difference between live performance and reproduction becomes nearly imperceptible. Play it yourself, let the piano perform masterpieces, or record your own music — the choice is entirely yours.

160+ years of Steinway heritage & uncompromising craftsmanship

Since 1853, Steinway & Sons has represented the ultimate standard in piano making. More than 2,000 Steinway Artists across every musical genre trust Steinway for its inspiring power, unmatched tonal palette, and emotional depth.

Each Steinway grand requires more than a year to build and consists of over 12,000 individual parts. Wood is aged for years before use; the iconic rim is crafted from carefully laminated layers of maple and mahogany; the cast-iron plate withstands more than 20 tons of string tension; and the premium spruce soundboard forms the beating heart of the legendary Steinway sound.

Machines are used only where they enhance absolute precision — but the majority of production remains deeply rooted in traditional, meticulous craftsmanship. No two Steinways are identical: each piano carries its own unique character, shaped by generations of expertise, uncompromising material selection, and exceptional tonal voicing.
