Last time I checked it was being sold for about 300 bucks so if you're on a low budget, you should be absolutely delighted. It is part of the DGX series. The other keyboards in the series are of course the DGX520 and DGX620. When you're looking to buy the latest YPG/DGX keyboards try here.
The Yamaha DGX220 has many similar features to the DGx520 and DGX620. But while the other two come with 88 keys, it comes with 76. Well more keys don't always mean better; it depends on your needs and what exactly you're looking for. 88 keys are more suited to the keyboard player who aspires to play the piano, or piano players that want the convenience and portability of a home keyboard.
Like the DGX520, the keys on the DGX220 are lightly weighted. So if it's weighted keys you're looking for, you should be prepared to spend more money for a model like the DGX620. One that comes with a feature called Graded Hammer Effect and emulates the feel and touch of an acoustic piano.
Features on the DGX220 include an onboard sequencer that allows you to record 5 songs/6 tracks, a 2 way speaker system with bass boost, PC connectivity in the form of USB MIDI, and a music database that includes over 250 songs.
