    Nostalgic colorway and satisfying clicks!

    I have nothing but good things to say about this keyboard. It's got such a nostalgic colorway and the switches are some of my favorites. I do like clicky switches and these have a satisfying pop that makes typing a treat. I have a lot of compact boards and needed something with the arrow keys for work. It looks great in an already nerdy office! The nobs all have a bit of tacticle feedback when using them. The volume knob can just keep spinning which is a tad annoying, I suppose I would've wanted a hard stop so I could use it without having to watch the volume bar. I haven't tried out the super buttons yet, but the keyboard itself is spectacular. It also seems to have great battery life. I used it without a cable for three days after getting it and the keyboard seemed to keep going with no signs of slowing down. Obviously it's not light up, so there's not a huge draw on the power. It's got a great weight to it that makes it feel stable. But it's not so heavy that it's annoying to move around on your desk. Overall, spectacular. I'd buy it all over again.

    Great purchase and fun to use.

    This keyboard fist perfectly in the keyboard inset of my convertable standing desk. Multuple connection types are great when cords may get into a bad position when standing. The superbuttons have been a fun addition to use as often as possible. Great soft sound with the mechanical keys.

    Buy this

    This thing is cool in so many ways. Great build quality. The hot keys are so fun to use. As someone who writes reports all day I genuinely enjoy using this keyboard. The key sound is somewhere between the pop and the thonk. Very smooth and easy setup. BUY IT!

    Amazing retro look and feel

    I took a shot and bought this for my kid. I love the retro look and feel of this. the clicking sound of the mechanical key board is truly amazing. the controls for volume are superb. He has been using it to play games like fortnight and he absolutely loves this. Its not a know brand per se but for a mechanical key board its absolutely amazing.
