Grand Pianos by Sherman Clay Seattle Pianos

Model M Medium Grand Piano

At 5 feet 7½ inches in length, our "Music Room" piano is a cherished member of Steinway & Sons’ amazing lineup of incomparable musical instruments. Its rich tone and responsive action is found not only in a great many homes, but in many schools of music and conservatories as well. It’s a piano that can be enjoyed every day, all day, for a lifetime.

"Thank you for providing pianos that have personality and even more importantly, soul"—Hélène Grimaud.

Length: 5’ 7’’ (170 cm)
Width: 57 ¾’’ (146.5 cm)

Model O Living Room Grand Piano

This 5-foot-10¾-inch piano has been a source of joy and inspiration since the very early 1900s—and it continues to be so today. It has a sound that is particularly warm and rich—far beyond what one would expect for a piano that is under 6 feet in length. Its action offers the sensitivity and control that has made Steinway famous; and no matter what you ask of this piano, it has an answer ready.

"Steinway is the only piano on which the pianist can do everything he wants. And everything he dreams"—Vladimir Ashkenazy.

Length: 5’ 10 3/4’’ (180 cm)
Width: 57 3/4’’ (approx. 146.5 cm)
Weight: 616 pounds (approx 280 kg)

Portland Baby Grand Pianos

Model S Baby Grand Piano



At 5 feet 1 inch in length, this "Baby" grand piano was introduced in the 1930s. Don’t let its size fool you! Steinway & Sons’ patented "Diaphragmatic Soundboard"—now found in every Steinway piano produced today—was first developed because of this model. To insure that a powerful and rich tone could be produced by a piano of this size, Steinway redesigned its soundboard, resulting in a tone that greatly outperformed others. And it still does. Every inch a Steinway, this piano is a proud addition to any home.

"When one plays a Steinway, there is a warmth and nobility in the sound that is unequalled by any other instrument"—Emanuel Ax.
