“Keyboard was compact, satisfying to type on, easy to understand certain shortcut, mapping is the keyboard is nice but not needed if you just want to plug and play.”

“For the price, this keyboard should cost more than what it does. It sounds good, the weight of the keyboard has the heft of a more expensive keyboard. I am happy with it”
