> 3 dayI purchased this for my 9 year old son for Christmas. Well, approximately 1 month after use, the keyboard started smoking and noticed the usb-c input had became misshaped due to the heat. Now the unit is a paper weight. I emailed the company (Kraken) and gave them 3 weeks to respond. I received no response, hence, this negative review. If you’re looking for a reliable keyboard I would look into other companies such as CorseAir. Just my two cents.

> 3 dayProduct ordered dircetly from Kraken. Kraken Pro 60% Mech Keyboard, brown switches, custom keycaps. Honestly this is pretty nice keyboard, but it is just a GK61 with a Kraken logo thrown onto it. This means that you can save yourself a good chunk of change by opting just to get one of those. But, I do like the keyboard, it is a good piece of hardware, the switches feel great, Im just not entirely sure how much Kraken actually DOES. Mine did not ship for 4 days, and took another 4 to get here, and they didnt even put the keycaps on the keyboard, they just shipped them in the box. So, my new keyboard arrives, that I paid a premium price for, and Ive got to sit here pulling keycaps out and replacing them. Just sort of leaves me wondering, what is the point of this? I could buy a GK61, pick whatever switches I want, and whatever keycaps I want. I did most of the work on this one anyways, so I just dont get it. Lastly, the software is atrocious. If youre new to 60% keyboards, just working everything out will take some time, and then getting used to using it will take some time as well, and the software definitely does not help - not very user-friendly or intuitive. So, pretty average keyboard, but thats not to say that it isnt nice. Ill be keeping mine and using it, but next time around I will likely just build one myself, or go with something thats not marked up because someone slapped a logo onto it. Overall, it is not a bad product at all. The GK61 is a decent entry-level board from what I gathered, the switches are decent quality, as are the keycaps. Ignoring the fact that you can buy all of these things separately, it is decent, but a bit pricey.

> 3 dayMy son saved for a year for this stupid $100 keyboard and it broke in less than 1 month and half. Now I cant even exchange it or return it because the window expired 10/days ago. Ugh. Hes so sad.

Greater than one weekI bought this product a while back because I REALLY wanted speed silvers and a fast keyboard for my competitive gaming. For the first few days, it was GREAT. I felt good, the keys sounded nice, and it was overall enjoyable. After those few days (about 4), the keys started getting rattly and every time I press a key, it makes a loud obnoxious springy sound. The keys dont even FEEL good anymore. Ive been looking for a new keyboard ever since. Worth it - 2/10 Advantage - 3/10 Durability - -10/10 Should you buy? - NO.
