> 3 dayI will start by saying I’m not a gamer, I only bought this for work because I really like clicky keyboards. Only got it a few days ago and I love it and have gotten used to typing on it very quickly. The interactive options are really cool and I find myself switching modes for the keys and side lights sometimes a couple times a day to just keep it fun. It is pretty bright and good for when I’m working in the dark (usually). We will see how long this will last but for the price I can’t complain at all!

> 3 dayThis has become my everyday keyboard. I love the way the keys feel, and the different light settings. Ive been using it for a bit now and havent noticed anything feeling weird or glitching at all. The lights shine as well as the day I turned it on for the first time. The seller says the keys are interchangeable, but I have yet to try that out. I will try to remember to update my review if and when I do that.

> 3 dayI’m not a gamer so I can’t advise if it’s a good gaming keyboard. My main use is for work. I love the clicking noise the keyboard makes and the light up features are great! I liked adding some color to my work space.

> 3 dayI thought this would be just another rbg keyboard but they programming on this keyboard made my day. So many different ways to light up the board. The keyboard is also very easy to clean and doesnt have small pockets for debris to fall in. Best one I found in a while. Hoping this one lasts.

Greater than one weekI have vision issues and my old black back lit keyboard was not doing the trick. Love the brightness of the backlights, the face that the bottom of the keyboard light up and the best feature is when you have Num lock and Caps lock light up a different color when engaged! No longer have to wonder if Caps lock is engaged or not (I use Caps a lot with work, so easy to glance down to see if it is on.) Got the red switches (first keyboard with these). Feels smooth to type and very fast response time. Even got me one for work so I use it at work and home all day every day. Love everything about this keyboard!

> 3 daycheap keyboard but good to use and fun at the same time. Cheap feeling keys are the main dislike of the keyboard but otherwise a good keyboard. I let my wife use if for work and shes in love with the thing.

> 3 dayWow. This keyboard actually surprised me at its price point. I was fairly sure that it was going to be a China special, but its actually tenable for everyday things (for me, anyway). Im not a keyboard connoisseur, by any means, so grain of salt here. It has a metal faceplate on the base that seems to keep flex to a minimum when typing. Can you twist it by torquing both ends? Yes, but it doesnt feel flimsy. The switches are perfectly serviceable linear switches (not tactile), that have a nice feeling amount of travel. Theyre not overly noisy, but are more noisy than a mushy membrane keyboard. The lighting options are actually kind of absurd at this price, but a neat bonus.

> 3 dayI wanted to try a mechanical keyboard, but specifically I wanted one that was white, full sized, and had RGB lighting options. I also couldnt afford one of the more expensive name brands and didnt want to invest in one until I tried it out. This ticks all my boxes and Im very happy with it so far! I havent tried swapping the keys for other styles but I look forward to doing that out soon. The clacky sound is satisfying but not too loud-- I got red switches and they are pretty subtle. My boyfriend and I work in the same space and my keyboard is definitely not as loud as his, which I find to be a bit too loud (I think he has brown switches). I love all the lighting options as well, there are many to choose to from. Overall I definitely recommend this keyboard to those looking for one!

> 3 dayI had bought a 60% keyboard and loved it (another RK Royal Kludge product) but realized how much I missed directional buttons, function keys and a number pad. I figured that since I loved my other RK Royal Kludge keyboard Id give this a try. Out of the box, my first impression was, Wow, this feels cheap compared to the other keyboard. The other keyboard has an aluminum frame, where this is surrounded by LEDs. Theyre bright, dont get me wrong but the frame doesnt feel nearly as premium. The buttons feel very clacky which the other RK Kludge keyboard didnt have, even for brown switches. It wasnt easily noted what type of switches it used, so color me surprised when I found out these were nondescript RK switches. Not sure if this will matter to you but the cord is attached to the keyboard. This is it for the cons. The mixed bag portion: While I love having function keys, directional buttons and a number pad back, I forgot why I gave it up in the first place. While gaming, my mouse has to sit much further out than my arm is comfortable with. Imagine a splayed out configuration which is awkward for long gaming sessions. This isnt the fault of the keyboard as all full size keyboards will be like this. Things I liked: The keyboard is crazy bright, and the floating keys along with the LED rimming the keyboard frame means your keyboard will dazzle you in a darkened room. Overall, I liked it okay, but realized I needed more space to move the mouse around. Its absolutely worth the price, especially if this is your first foray into the mechanical keyboard world.
