I bought this for one of the polonaises. The book is printed well and is inexpensive but doesn't sit flat at all. I don't know how anyone would use this on a piano. I made a copy of the one I wanted and put it in a binder that sits flat. If I was going to play works from this edition I would take it somewhere and have the binding replaced with something that lies flat.
