Paul,

Do you like them more than the Pearl Rivers?

Hi, David:
                 They are made by American Sejung.  Our store used to sell 
them with a
player installed at the factory.  We used to sell the smallest model 
GF-42,
under 5'.  Almost all need bass damper alignment because of leaky notes. 
Not sure why, but not a huge deal.  Otherwise they were ok.  Nothing to
write home about, but not the worst.  Just a very inexpensive Chinese
import.  Overall tone could be improved, sort of clunky but not overly
bright.  I can't remember the larger models of Falconi.  Our lower line is
George Steck, which I think is also made by American Sejung.  Acceptable
quality, inexpensive, etc. 
                 Our middle line now is Brodmann, which are a hybrid 
German/Chinese piano. 
Best I've seen coming from China.  Many artists prefer it over a Baldwin 
of
similar size, though the price is about half.  The strings are specially
made in Austria.  Good customer service.  FWIW.
                 My 2 cents.
