My favorite - for looks, ease of portability, and functionality - has =
been the Apex AX-48 Pro for many years. I=E2=80=99m glad to see that =
it=E2=80=99s still a current product after decades (since 1986).

I have more that one keyboard like the Oberheim Matrix-12 with =
significant depth. The optional extended arms help in this respect.

These are 18=E2=80=9D


Although I rarely pack any of my keyboards for transport out of my =
studio, I still like the way these look. There are no ratcheted joints =
to slip when under-tightened. It just works. And packing them up is =
simple.

If $200 is too much for you, there are cheaper variations, but they=E2=80=99=
re not quite as elegant.
