“What a piece of art. The cnc and attention to detail is immacualte. Gif screen and VIA software could use some love, but it's perfectly fine for what it is.”

“Had the keyboard since August. Dealt with the same issue as another reviewer of keys double registering but dealt with it. PCB died today. 3 stars because everything else was fantastic.”
