Praise
“Even after constant use for several weeks, the switches show no deteriation to quality whatsoever. Very well built too, as the sound is unlike any other”
Seza M.Verified buyer· via Epomaker
Critique
“I never recieved the Keyboard because it got lost in the arrival facility. The shipping company nor the manufacturer were helpful, but at least it was a free giveaway I won so I lost no money. It's a bummer I never got it though.”

“Love the keyboard and goes well with the switches i got. Size was bigger than expected but weight is truly high quality Could do with a force break mod though as it is a little pingy”
