I have Hyperion HPS-938 in black finish. They look very similar to Wilson Puppies and resemble small coffins. I hated the finish initially, but it kept growing on me. Additional benefit of piano finish is ability to fix any scratches by piano restoration service. Would I buy a white one? Perhaps not (and I have white car), but I would have to see. I always hated white kitchen cabinets, but recently I visited few new construction houses in Florida and now I prefer white cabinets there. As for marketability, I think that it might sell OK in the southern states only. I agree that it would be a poor choice for the rest of the country.
