Praise
“just received the keyboard. I am so happy with it!! I chose the Cotton Candy switches, and this is exactly what I was looking for. I had tried other mechanical keyboards before, but they were never quite what I wanted. These switches are so soft and feel…”

Critique
“The overall build quality and the feel is amazing but it sometimes restarts itself for no apparent reason (every 3h or so) when used wired.”
