If it was up to me I would never get a 10 years old an arranger keyboard.I would get him something with only few voices and least amount of buttons to push.That way he/she will play more and press buttons less.I have seen too many arranger players playing every song in one key.They just use transpose for every song.
On the other hand I think s750 is a good value keyboard.
Maybe thats because you dont live in europe. Arranger keyboards are still everywhere in the area i live in.
Overhere arrangers are very well accepted, and most music schools have addapted to and are giving arranger keyboard lessons... in which they do not only learn the typical arranger playstyle, but also piano style... and they learn to play both from notes as by ear... They learn about all the typical musicall instruments that are emulated by arrangers, and how to make a sax sound like a sax and a flamengo guitar like a guitar..
With their arranger keyboard lessons, then dont only learn playing keys, they also learn about music in general on a fun instrument..
There is also piano lessons, but they are often to serious for kids of just ten years old, arangers make it fun, and they can allways addapt to piano lessons later on.
And to be frankly honest, i think its all those buttons that pulls them towards arrangers....
