Pretty in Pink, looks and feels MUCH more expensive
Okay, so I wrestled FOR EVER trying to find a keyboard that said ME and wasn't some gimmicky cheap trash or some crazy overpriced nonsense. The moment I pulled this out of the box my heart said yes, I could feel a giant grin and I think the only reason that you didn't hear me scream is because it's pitch was above that of normal human hearing. This keyboard looks SO much better than I had imagined, it's really pleasing on the eye. It has a nice deep black braided cord, the brushed aluminum top plate looks super nice, there's no ugly logo ruining the aesthetic and it just looks like it should have cost quite a bit more. The next thing I noticed, as I pulled it from the box, is just how heavy it is. I've seen videos where they test flex and stuff, and certainly I'm not strong enough to cause any, it really feels like it's built like a tank.If you can't tell, I absolutely LOVE this keyboard. It's a really really long time since I used a keyboard with actual Cherry MX switches, so I can't tell you if these Kailh blues are identical, but they sure sound and feel pretty much how I remember, and more importantly, I love how they feel. I'm not one way or the other about the sound they make, they make a lovely sound, but as with switches of this type, are pretty loud. That said, because I can type with a lot less pressure, while they have a sharp clicky sound, they're probably no noisier than the crappy cheap membrane keyboard I had previously, and certainly, at least from the perspective of the typist, they sound pleasing. If they made no sound at all though, I'd be just as pleased, I'm enjoying the fact that I don't have to bang the keys all the way to the bottom to successfully type every letter. REALLY happy with how this board types. The keys themselves (the caps) FEEL really nice, smooth but not slippery, matte but feel so silky. The shape in the top of the keys is fine for me too, a light indent, I have long nails (usually a lot longer than in the pictures) and I cannot type on flat top laptop style chiclet keys.Although this is a full size keyboard (US layout, I specifically wanted that) it's very compact. I was worried initially about the lack of any wrist support, so I took notice of where my hands are while I type on my old keyboard and realized that probably the rest wasn't actually doing anything for me. I never use my keyboard on a desk, I'm always sitting somewhere with no desk or lying on my bed, so it's always on my lap and I have not noticed the lack of wrist rest at all.It does have rubber feet on the underside and also on the legs so I imagine it'd stay pretty much where you wanted if you were to use it on a desk. Certainly if sit cross legged they grip on my jeans well enough to prevent movement though I never have any issues with it just balanced on my legs as per the photos. Perhaps the weight is a factor here. The backlighting is white, and looks super nice through the pink keys, there are several brightness settings including off and a bunch of different modes. It looks as though you can program your own too, certainly you can have specific keys light up, I'm not entirely sure just what all it can really do, it seems to have a ton of features but the manual is SUPER basic and I'm blonde. I also don't feel the need to mess with it. I haven't made use of any of the gaming features, it has all kinds of macro recording abilities which I never use, and you can lock the Windows key too, or, my favorite ALL keys, which is SUPER nice when you want to clean it while it's still connected, and this IS something you are going to want to do, because as soon as you pull it from your PC, any settings you made disappear (at least the lighting choices I made do).So with all that said, what don't I like? There's really nothing to complain about, so the things I'm listing here are just nitpicking, or things that if they were changed would make it EVEN better than it already is.I'm NOT super mad about the font. That's probably the single biggest thing, it's not horrible, but it's not great, a nicer font would make it look even more premium. I also wish that it held your settings when removed from the PC (if you even turned your PC off at the back, you'd lose them). This isn't a huge deal for me, but I imagine if someone was using the macro features, that might be a super big pain, because as far as I am aware, there's no software for this thing. Finally, whilst I love the white on pink theme with the backlighting, I'd really like to get some white keycaps and a fancy spacebar at some point, and if it had RGB, it'd be nice to set the backlight to pink on the white keys while the rest remain white. Oh, and it's not wireless.The perfect keyboard for me just doesn't exist. This is OH SO VERY CLOSE though. And at the price? That more than makes up for not being 100% exactly what I would want, it looks and feels easily like it cost 2 or 3 times as much.I love it as much now as when I bought it. Except for the spacebar. I accidentally splashed a tiny amount of acetone fixing my nails and somehow, one minuscule drop flew across the bed and landed on the spacebar, so there's a tiny smooth spot.

Good value
It looks super cute and I like the mechanical noise it makes. I imagine that if you do a lot of typing it can be a bit annoying but no complains so far! The pink is very nice as well and it doesn't look cheap or childish

Solid, well made keyboard for the price
Surprisingly weighty and solid feeling keyboard, solid and sturdy base that gives a solid feel for typing.Backlighting is good with lots of functions, if a little confusing.The Kalih blue switches feel perfectly good with a satisfying sound! However the only let down is the keycaps which are a bit on the cheap side. But those can be changed if required.A wrist rest would be recommended as the keys sit quite high off the desk for typing on.

Works great
It’s so so cute and great quality but the clicks are very loud, it helps me personally but if you’re looking for a silent keyboard this isn’t for you

Surprisingly well built
really love this keyboard - loads of light combos you can program to it as well. Feels like a £100 keyboard in my opinion. Blue switches are a bit loud but super responsive.
