Best 88 key weighted controller?

I've searched high and low, but I can't find a decent 88 key controller, than can fool me into thinking i'm playing a piano. I'm almost to the point of getting a really cheap upright, and getting a Moog Pianobar, and using sampled sounds!

I've tried the Kurzweil ones, the Fatar ones, the Yamaha ones, and the Maudio ones, but they just don't feel real. I got spoiled at my old college playing concert grands on a daily basis, and all of these seems to lack any bounce, or all feel too light. Also all the keys feel so... i dunno well they are plastic, so of course the feel plastic. I'd like something that I close my eyes and imagine it's a real piano. Perhaps i'm just tricking myself into thinking they aren't as good.
