Critique
“The keyboard has been great but when I received it a couple keys were broken. I had to glue the inside connector back together as it had broken apart. Otherwise the keyboard has functions very well.”

“Ordered this board trying to get back into the hobby and was blown away by the quality and value. Why spend more on luxury boards when you can have this for less? Divinikey was a pleasure to work with; you've got a loyal customer!”
