My parents are considering purchasing a new upright acoustic piano, since our old one is extremely out of tune despite all the times we’ve gotten it tuned, and is about 150 years old. What brands are the best? What should I look for in a new piano? How much should my parents be willing to spend on it? I’m the only person in the family who plays piano, and I’m 17. I’ve played piano for 9 years and am at a fairly advanced level. I love rich, full sounds.

Depends on how much your parents are willing to spend. I have a Steinway Baby Grand but their uprights are also really nice, they cost around $20,000 but they are worth the money. Other piano’s that I have played and think are rather good are:
Kawai – cheapest around $4500
Bosendorfer – averages over $40, 000 (yes very expensive but one of the best I have every played).
Yamaha – around $4500
Baldwin – around $4000
Suzuki – around $3000
Note: prices are not exact, there are estimates based on the piano store I normally go to which is locally owned so you should go around looking at piano stores that sell only pianos not music stores. Don’t think that just ’cause it is cheap means you should get it. First try out the piano and get a feel for it(play some scales or a small simple song, large fancy songs tend to attract attention and some store managers don’t really like it while others think you are really interested in that piano.)after that talk to your parents and decide what fits there budget. Good luck and try to remember at least one song(i’m 18 and i will stop taking lessons after I graduate) since it will benefit you in the future(example: good stress reliever).
Steinway
I am a k.kawai fan, my absolute favorite over steinway even
Yamaha.
