The Estonia Piano Factory was founded in 1893 by Ernst Hiis in Tallinn, Estonia. After the factory's decline in the early 1990s with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the firm was revived by Indrek Laul, who invested in the company and introduced its products to the United States. Although the Estonia pianos manufactured in the early 1990s were plagued by manufacturing defects, those made since about 2002 have demonstrated remarkable quality and a unique, sweet singing tone. Additional improvements made in the years 2003-2005 have placed the Estonia grand pianos in the highest or second highest tier of quality, based upon ranking systems frequently referred to in the piano industry, although such rankings are frequently also disputed.
