Teenage son put this on his Christmas wish list. He seemed very happy with it. In the brief moments that I saw it before he retreated to his room it looked solid and durable. He seems happy with it too although it’s hard to tell as he generally communicates with mono syllabic grunts. When I venture to his dark room to beckon him for meal times and the occasional shower a dim and colourful eerie light appears through the doorway so I assume this is functioning well. Shame it doesn’t double up as a room deodoriser, now that would be a product worth buying! Overall I think we are happy with it.

For gaming it's adequate, but for typing, I found that the keys require more pressure than average to type, compared to previous keyboards that I've used. In particular, the space bar and backspace require more conscious effort than I prefer to use. Would not recommend buying this if you intend to type much of anything, especially if you're a competent typist who is used to typing at speed. My wrists ache after about 200 words. However, it was aesthetically pleasing and I enjoy the rainbow glow. 28 days after my keyboard was delivered, parts of the keys have been worn off already, as you can see from the image above. This keyboard should be robust enough to last at least a month, but has not.

I thought for the price it was just going to be hard plastic but it's actually made of metal (Apart from the keys). I tend to play a lot of games/type a lot and the keys have gone well, none of them have gotten stuck and they all work fine. Even adding a button to turn off your LEDs on the keyboard which is a nice addition since the rest of the keyboards didn't have that option, also having a nice colour blend. I'd highly suggest this keyboard.

So I love almost everything about this keyboard, I have arthritis and the lightweight keys are a lot easier on my fingers than my old keyboard, the case is made from Aluminium and also feels nice and is easily grab-able at all angles.There is one downside though, I suffer from light sensitivity, so much so that my windows are blacked out and I have blackout curtains and a low 360 lumens lightbulb, meaning my room is pretty dark, and while I can touch type to some degree, I find myself making a lot of mistakes, so not being able to see the letters themselves without having a light on is kinda irritating.On the plus side this keyboard is incredibly easy to clean, and if you don't have the issues I have then I can't recommend this keyboard enough, the backlight is very nice and the feel of the keystroke is also very nice. Letters not lighting up is the only reason I am knocking off a star.

Update from late May 2020:After posting my initial review below about receiving defective keyboard, seller proactively reached out to me and offered to send another keyboard - feee of charge.I am happy to say it is now with me and works very well - no issues!Upgraded review to 5 stars:-)I was excited to buy this keyboard, having recently also purchased a gaming laptop and gaming mouse. Gaming mouse is from the same manufacturer as the keyboard. Mouse works fine. Keyboard works only partially. The backlit LED lights do come on and most buttons register input. Plus it seems to be light yet sturdy. That's for positives.HOWEVER: several important buttons don't work at all - CAPS LOCK, N,M, ",", ".", ?, SHIFT and TAB, as well as Right ALT and ENTER.I mean seriously - how is one supposed to work or play games with some of the important buttons not registering any input whatsoever.I bought 2 days ago, tried several times, left it overnight, hoping against common sense that the next day the buttons will magically start working.Buyers beware and proceed at your own risk - seems like a toss of the coin if you're gonna get a faulty one or fine.P.S. It would be nice if the seller responded to contact attempts (emails).

I lifted it with my finger and pushed it again, it stays down. At that point I noticed the right-hand side lifting up when I pushed the key, because, as it transpires, it is also missing a rubber foot from the bottom of the keyboard - not ideal. So, either I was unlucky or the build quality is very poor.

I ordered this keyboard when repairing my old one went wrong (and it ended up snapped in half), but I couldn't be happier after using it for a few weeks.The keys are responsive and have a very good feel, comfortable even when gaming for a longer period of time.They have a slight mechanical sound to them but not so much as to be noticed over game noise.I had a slight concern that the LED would be distracting, as this is my first coloured LED keyboard, but I was very pleasantly surprised. The LEDs can be brighter or dimmed (or switched off) easily and even switched to "breathing mode" where they pulse at a user controlled speed. I mostly use it for showing off.My only two issues with the keyboard are probably more personal to me based on my last keyboard: I find that I hit F1 rather than esc more often than not; and to change the volume requires multiple keys (fn + number keys) and I am used to a single button.These issues are a function of the keyboard being smaller and less bulky than my previous keyboard.
