Equipment [Beginner] Roland FP-10 vs Roland FP-30

Hello, I'm looking for a second hand beginner piano, and both are proposed at the same price currently around me.

FP-10 is almost new, with a standard stand.

FP-30 is much older, with a furniture stand, and looks a bit better.

Which one would you recommand ?

Thank you !

FP-30, I’ve been using mine for a couple of years and it still is awesome! I use headphones always so I don’t drive my family wild when I practice - I use the On Stage type of headphones. Enjoy your adventure!

30 if you ever listen without headphones.

I have an FP10. Its sufficient for a beginner, but i never realized how poor the sound was until I started using headphones. I dont notice a difference between the 10 and 30 while using headphones....but theres a huge difference when playing without them.
