“Great keyboard but K2 is too small for my clumsy hands... not their fault. A larger one may have worked better for me. Otherwise I like everything about it.”

“Perfect keyboard, sounds lovely, feels lovely, i just fee like the white keys are a lot more cream than pictured. Not an issue though! Just a little annoying haha”
