I'm happy with this keyboard, the different lights configurations make you feel that you are using a different keyboard when you are tired of the same, I grew up using mechanical keyboards, so this for me is wonderful.

Not a bas CB product fair gaming if you like hearing your strokes on the keyboard!

This keyboard replaces one with Cherry MX red switches. I love the substantial build - it’s solid, heavy, and the rubber feet ensure it won’t move on the desktop. The Cherry MX blue switches have s distinctly different feel than the reds. I use the keyboard for typing (I am not a gamer) and I appreciate the tactile feedback (the click) and the additional pressure it takes to actuate the switch. Red switches are softer and less tactile - and less noisy. But, I like the noisy, clicky keys. The increased pressure helps my typing accuracy too. The red backlight is a neat touch as is the additional USB port on the keyboard - note that in order to use it there is a second usb plug at the end of the braided cord so you have to have two available USB ports to use it. I do and it is VERY convenient.

Customers enjoy the Alloy FPS keyboard's high-quality build, responsive and satisfying key feel, and the clicky nature of the Cherry MX Blue switches. The inclusion of a convenient USB port for charging devices is also a frequently praised feature, along with the ease of use and overall value for the price.
