I'll echo the sentiment made in a previous review. I have no idea why I waited so long to get this keyboard. I don't game anymore so my take is solely from a typing perspective. Now I'm a product of the late '70's and early '80's so I am very familiar with those mechanical tanks we used to type on. Now, the typing experience with this K840 is not exactly the same but it is definitely paying homage to those old beasts in an updated way. The keys feel authoritative and precise. The mechanical action is not overly firm and the travel is perfectly measured. Anyway, I highly recommend it. An absolute joy to use.

At first, I was skeptical, but after trying it, it's been an awesome experience. It's durable, so it handles my strong taps fine, yet the keys are pronounced and easily accessed, so I can fluidly type of I want. Best place to start for heavy typers and/or gamers!

You can feel the sturdy quality in both tactile and operational perceptions. It does take some getting used to the height of the key positions. Because they seemingly extend above the keyboard they tended to feel awkward at first, compared to a standard keyboard.
