I purchased this keyboard as its resembles an old Underwood typewriter I used to type on as a kid - well before PCs were in every home. I especially like the click sound, similar to the typewriter, when typing. (it is not made for a quiet office setting) I find the keys' have a nice light feel and normal travel.
This keyboard is very well built. It appears it will last a long time.
Although I didn't really buy it for the lighting on the keyboard, playing around with the various light settings is kinda cool.
Ordered a week before Christmas, and it arrived a few days after, so I was very please with the quick turnaround, especially around that time of year.

I love this keyboard! It feels well built and the lighting is very cool. I type all day and I like the shape of the keys. The sound it makes is satisfying to me! Don’t try to use it in a quiet environment but if you like the sound of a typewriter you will love this!
Aimee Welch
I love my new keyboard. It has the look and feel of an old typewriter. Besides being a beautiful showpiece on my desk it works wonderfully!! Brought a bit of fun to my workday and the mounds of paperwork! Great investment!
Zayaan Oconnell
It works great, the key action and natural clicking sound is good. The lighting is plenty bright, but not overdone. I'm not a gamer, just wanted a nice retro keyboard that is great for typing as well, and this really fits the bill.
I'm very pleased with this purchase.

THIS IS AWESOME. I have been wanting one of these for a while. I’ve done research on them and I didn’t want a colorful one or one that lit up because I will be using it at work. This is perfect! It has the “clicky” sounds, it doesn’t feel cheaply made. It’s actually pretty heavy for a keyboard. Highly recommend
Nate
Oh this is so cool.I love the old clacking to remind me of typing. This is the coolest keyboard I've ever had. Why not get some bling? For those of us who make a living at the computer, I think we deserve this.You also have to get the gold mousepad and a mouse that matches. Bling baby. I love the response and I personally think I type better on it, but that's just me I guess. Yeah, it's a must

This was originally a totally self-indulgent style buy for me. I didn't realize that it is a mechanical keyboard and why people buy these. OMG this is incredible to type on! I will never get a non-mechanical keyboard, again. And, I am sure that's where a lot of the price comes from, actually. But, even beyond that, it is just such a high quality piece of work. (Why do we buy cheap stuff for things we will literally use all day every day??)
Originally, I imagined this thing was probably way overpriced but didn't care. Now, I see that this keyboard is really well priced for what it is -- not only a nice mechanical keyboard but made with great materials and workmanship and all this style too! Much more than just another mechanical keyboard even.

If you know what a touch typist is then you probably learned to type on a typewriter and this may be for you. It is substantial, it does not move around the desk when I type, I do not need the keys to be back-lit because my hands know exactly what to type without me thinking about it. Added bonus, it looks really cool! It does make a noise when keys are pressed, about the same loudness as my memory of an IBM Selectric and quieter than a Smith Corona electric portable. Since I spent early years typing letters on both of these typewriters, this keyboard is perfect. My typing speed has started to return to to pre flat-flimsy-plastic -keyboard speed of years ago. The keys for computer functions, well, I have been using computer keyboards since they came out and the position of the keys is standard, so there is no learning curve. I purchased two of these, in hopes it would be great and I could give one as a gift. Both arrived in perfect condition and I have high hopes the recipient will be as pleased as I am.
Haniya Snyder
OMG she loves it. She can't stop typing. It's a fun keyboard and she thinks it's the coolest thing ever. She works in an office all day and this is her new buddy. It's very comfortable, cool and blingy. Be advised that it's quite a space hog, but if you have plenty of room, it's an advantage as you have nice large keys to type on. The keystroke feedback is nice and it clicks nicely with each stroke. I love the sound. It could lull me off to sleep.
Rex Prosser
UPDATE: I've been using this keyboard for 6 months now and love it. Noise: satisfying and not too loud. Key action: excellent! I do find the reverse order of the shiftable keys more annoying that I thought they would be.
I researched mechanical keyboards for use at my desk because I wanted to try something different. I am also a casual gamer, but didn't really buy it for that reason. My eyes bugged out when I came across the retro look of this one, but was unsure due to mixed ratings. So I purchased it thinking I'd try it and return if it bugged me. Sound: quite excellent. This may sound weird picky, but the click clack is great, except for the space bar - it has a much higher toned click that I'm now used to. First-world problem AF! The click clack does seem loud at night when others are sleeping. Typing action: oh my gosh, my fingers can fly on this thing. I haven't timed myself, but I think it really has increased my speed quite a bit. I typed up a friend's resume in under 5 min. The look: quite excellent. However, some keys are already showing slight fading. I just tried cleaning the T with a damp qtip, didn't work, then alcohol, also didn't work, so the frequently used white letters are coming off a little. I don't care really, because I love the black and silver. As others have stated, some of the shiftable keys are confusing because they're printed on the key in reverse order. I'm really happy with it overall and look forward to whenever I have a hunk of text to type - like this!
Tiya Bush
I love this keyboard. It is so much like the old typewriter I was taught on. The sound and feel are pretty much the same. The light effect is pretty. It fits is really well with my decor which is not fancy at all with a lot of old things. The kids all love the keyboard also. It is kind of cool to them. If there was one thing I would change it would be the way the lights work. Wish they were more in the keys than behind them. I don't use them much so it isn't that big of a deal. I would recommend this keyboard to others.
Riaan Newton
I have Parkinson's and have been looking for a keyboard that I can use successfully for typing. This keyboard is working very well for my needs. I find that I'm not pressing two keys at a time as I was doing with other keyboards. It has a very comfortable touch, and it looks great! This is a heavy keyboard with really nice wood and and trim. I use this for my computer and needed to add a wrist rest to make it comfortable, and it's working great! The backlit keys are another plus, and the brightness of the light can be adjusted or turned off completely. The keys have a nice "click"
Theo
LOVE IT! this keyboard adds a little spunk to my work day at the office. I’m on my computer all day long and the clicking/lights actually helps me stay focused and allows me to WANT to continue being productive. Day 1- I connected my desktop, iPad and phone and they work seamlessly. Love this product!
Gabriel Little
I want the feel of being able to effectively slap someone in the head with it, this has some weight to it so I feel comfortable in that. I was a bit disappointed that the key combo to "Adjust for Light Speed" doesn't actually put you in Light Speed. No points off as this was just my misunderstanding. It has a satisfying "clack" sound, and feel as well like you actually hit a button. Very satisfying. It is very bright, which makes me feel safe while I am writing my Horror fan fiction at night. All in all I am quite happy with it.
Ella
I love this keyboard. I use it at work, and everyone who comes to my office comments on how cool and unique it is. But the main reason I bought it is that I type a lot, and am a very fast typist. I actually enjoy typing on this keyboard, you get the satisfying click as you press keys. It makes me feel more productive, lol
Simona Durham
I LOVE THIS KEYBOARD! The action and feel is great, love the tall mechanical keys and the round typewriter caps look so nice. Very heavy and sturdy, use this every day and love every minute of it. The white light is classy as well, I get nothing but compliments at work.
Albi Weston
Like this keyboard very much, perfect size for my office desk, fun to type on. If I had a dislike it would be the clicking sound it makes when typing. It doesn’t sound like a typewriter but pleased with it just the same.
Freja
Growing up in the 80s, I always admired typewriters. Nowadays they are not really practical but I still craved the key feedback as well as the clickty sound.
It does take a bit to get used to as the spacing is more generous than today's compact keyboard layouts but so far I'm really happy I bought this. It looks great and is fun to type on.
Lois Gilliam
The feel and response of this black-light modern keyboard is AMAZING! If you miss the feel and sound of a typewriter, this is the type of key board to get! I love how the lighting has many settings, the keys are easy to remove/put back and the keyboard is very well built!
Isra Neville
The quality of the keyboard is excellent. Feels good and sturdy, amazingly loud and clicky keys. I don't know why some people say it didn't come with instructions: they're on the back of the box.
Easy plug and use, didn't even have to mess with settings on my chrome book.
Mairead Conroy
Really liked the many lighting pattern options, the look of the keyboard, and the feel of the key strokes. Awesome product and brings some fun to my home office!
Mike Moran
This keyboard lights up beautifully - but what I love about it is the feedback (sound and tactile feel) that you get when pressing down on the keys. Could be a bit loud if you type quickly, but the build feels solid, and it is easy to control and use.
Shiloh
So many different modes to choose from. The sound that this keyboard makes is similar to the clicking of a mouse. It had a nice lightweight feel and is relatively easy to type on. Highly fashionable and fairly cheap for a keyboard like this. If you’re looking at other options I’d recommend this one
Phillippa Beltran
Excellent keyboard, it has fantastic design, easy clean, and comfortable typing. The metal panel design is amazing, it can protect a lot of the keyboard such as water or food drop inside the keyboard. It also have a lot of lighting mode. The lighting mode look very beautiful. I’m enjoy this keyboard.
Igor Duggan
I love the sounds this keyboard makes! It sounds very much like an old typewriter. The light displays work well I like I can adjust the brightness. I almost want to buy another for my work computer!
Ephraim Herman
It is such a cute keyboard and I love the noise it’s very calming to me and it just brightens up my whole desk! I couldn’t have this in the office just because I feel like the noise would bother people but working from home it’s amazing.
Mohammed Barron
Great product, very comfortable. Once I got passed leading where the keys were again it was even better. The gloss on theses makes the lighting really pop, and it makes long gaming/work sessions comfortable.
Ahyan Navarro
This keyboard is worth every penny, I was going to pick up a corsair n95 this keyboard I can see in the dark now excellent! I really love this keyboard for its features and the style yes is not quiet yet you will notice it comes with a weird tool that you can add parts to silence the keyboard. but still it gets five stars for design and features. a bit of both worlds new technology and nostalgic classic keyboard typewriter the words are illuminated efficiently to see the words. I can control the volume for music without touching the computer or use the mouse for the volume. a lot to learn about this new keyboard I will add additional update to my review.
Alayna
I just got it, but I love the colors and the feel so far! Will update my review if anything changes, but my initial impression is this thing is ADORABLE. Also it came way sooner than expected, not sure how long the orders take generally but mine arrived in like 3 days. Thanks! Update- still love this keyboard, beautifully made.
Winnie Hurley
I am not a gamer. .... but my Son and Grandson's are. They are just a tad bit jealous. This is an amazing keyboard! I have an old typewriter that was my Dads from the 1930's. I really fell in love with this keyboard because of the keys. It matches my Dads round typewriter keys that is in my office as a decoration! But it is so smooth and reactive to the touch, it almost feels like I think the letters and they appear before me! I'm sure for a gaming keyboard it must be amazing also. Love the lighting, and the ability to change the lighting colors and timing of the lighting. It's just a beautiful keyboard at a great price!
Michelle Bain
I can not express how much I love this keyboard!!! The colors are brilliant. It types like a dream. I thought that it was going to be very noisey, but it's actually quieter than my old standard keyboard. Typing is easier - I'm older, so I first learned to type on a standard typewriter. My office mates can't keep their hands off of it. One of them actually ordered herself one today! This new toy will definitely keep me entertained for quite a long time. Now I wondering if I should get one for my laptop at home..... Oh decisions! Buy it! It won't disappoint!
Angelika Lambert
Ordered this keyboard as a replacement for my Razer keyboard when it broke. I really like the circular keys and the rainbow color. It’s pretty loud, so beware if you want a silent keyboard. It’s not super clicky, the keys just pound down really loud. Either way it’s really nice.
Rohan
High quality & really great. Was unsure about buying because of the low amount of reviews, but this is a beautiful keyboard that works perfectly. REALLY satisfying clicking, plus you can cycle through different backlight modes & change brightness.
Just know that this is not a FULL keyboard, so no number keys, and also the light COLORS themselves don’t change. If these two things were changed it might just be perfect.
Otherwise, you can’t go wrong. Fantastic keyboard for the price.
Maja Ewing
It really does give off the feel of typing on a typewriter. Unfortunately, my only experience with a typewriter was a mondernized version of it that if you got the backspace it places the white out over the text for you, that was owned by an old associate of mine from middle school.
The keyboard itself comes in a big box that holds the actual box with the keyboard in it (and trust me I thought it was going to go through a Matryoshka doll moment). Inside the box is a key twizer to remove the keys if needed, and the keyboard itself cover with a sheer soft plastic covering the keyboard and the attached is cord. It also works well when playing games or as a primary/second keyboard for laptops and desktops alike.
Simon
I bought this one and was skeptical at first. However, that quickly dissipated once I got the keyboard and was thoroughly happy. I use it at work and everyone talks about how cool it is. I love the typewriter sound it makes when I type on it. The colors are pretty, too, but all I actually cared about was the typing sound. So far, it has worked fine. I think one key fell off because I had stuffed it in a bag with a lot of other items. It was easy to pop back on and has been working fine so far.
I'm happy with my purchase!
Ronaldo Conley
I am a writer, both for science and novels. I bought this on a late night whim after suffering from writer's block because hey, I've got a quirk where I tend to write more when the keyboard makes fun sounds. I. Love. This. Keyboard. I've had it less than an hour and I've already written more in that time than I have been able to write in the last week. It's gorgeous, the sound is perfection, and it still keeps up with my fast typing speed (an unexpected boon, the key shapes make it so I hit the wrong key less often than normal keyboards). The backlighting options are numerous and beautiful. I love that you can set the color to solid or rotating on different patterns, and adjust the brightness. This thing is amazing and I am in love with it. Well worth the price. It feels sturdy and well put together and I am ready to crush NaNoWriMo with it this year! 10/10 would recommend!
Inaya Novak
First off, the design is awesome. It has a wrist rest that you can either use or fold it up inder the keyboard. Second, the keys and the sounds they make are really authentic. I love that sound, it reminds me of when I was a little girl sitting outside my dad's office while he typed away on an IBM Selectric typewriter. And the tertiary reason...THE LIGHTS! I think you could spend the rest of your natural life going through all of the different settings. I change mine at least every half hour!
Mya Feeney
Honestly, I went back and forth between buying this brand and a couple of others. After reading the reviews, I decided this would be the best option. I was not wrong! I love the clickity clack of the keys, and though others complained of having to get used to the rounded keys, I had no issues at all. The keyboard feels solid and sturdy, and no matter what lighting option you choose, the appearance is really quite stunning. My only gripe, if you could even call it that, is that if the lights aren't bright enough, it can be difficult to see the lettering and numbering on the keys. At the same time, if they're too bright, it can be quite distracting. You can adjust the settings relitively easily, so I was able to overcome this issue. I type without having to look at the letters, but if you do, that might be an issue for you. Other than that, it's perfect!
Aisha Pollard
I am finishing up my final Masters class and I bought this key board because the one on my laptop keeps having issues. The colors are fun, I love them (and so do my children so... perks...), and honestly it is so much easier to type on this keyboard than the one on my computer. Works with Apple products (I have a MacBook Air), and honestly I feel like it was easier to write my papers on this keyboard than any other keyboard I've owned in the past. Love it!
Ellie-Mai Frazier
They are blue switches which I love. The brightness is great and there are many different light modes. My backspace key does make a weird noise when I hit it sometimes but it doesn't bother me. The look of the typewriter keys look amazing. I would definitely recommend this to a friend. However I would not get this keyboard if you work in a office because the keys are loud.
Codey Drew
The thickness of the keyboard is different and you will have to get use to it. However, the CLICKY OF THIS KEYBOARD!!!! THE DOPAMINE! I do not want to stop touching the keys just to click them. I am beyond happy with this product and it is well worth the money.
Roosevelt Murphy
I really love this keyboard. They shape of the keys, the feel of them, and the noise it makes when I type are just so amazing. I really love the colors and it has so many different light features but my favorite is the rainbow. When I started to type on it the noise of the key was such a pleasant surprise and my favorite part of the keyboard. For the price it is an amazing keyboard and I noticed that I actually type with fewer errors and much faster. It would be great if it came in a wireless form but wired is still great.
Huzaifah
This product put the “fun” back in Funtastictyping. OK fun was never there to begin. But it is NOW!
It has taken my miserably horrible typing skills to not so much miserably horrible taking skills. I can produce documents faster with his keyboard. In my mood has greatly improved. I have been involved in to double blind placebo controlled blinded studies and Yep I’m in a better mood. I’ll because of the bright lights on the keyboard in the click click click. This is the Best Buy I have come across in a long time. For you people that want world peace this is your ticket bodies keyboards spread them out across continents and we got peace peace.
Lynn Slater
got this for my hubby and This keyboard is amazing but it does take some getting used to if your used to the dip in the keys of a regular keyboard cause there is no dip or curve to these at all its exactly how it looks.. just like a old type writer style.. other than that its amazing..
Now the ONLY problem is that is DOES NOT come with a manual on how to use it for the lights... luckily they provide that on here so all you gotta do is copy and paste them and save it to your pc...
other than that awesome buy!
Naveed Bone
Great keyboard, lots of customization but no GUI to change stuff. Which is alright if that's what you're looking for. Enough special effects to keep me happy. The most important part is the typing experience. It definitely doesn't feel like a normal keyboard. Flat key tops, no curvature to them. Also round instead of square. They work and I've gotten used to them but it took a few weeks of typing to feel completely natural again.
Cinar Buchanan
I am so in love with this keyboard!!! It is so pretty and I love the clickety clackety sound and the round typewriter look. I feel like I have an old 1920s typewriter but BETTER!!!!!!!!!!! The effects are so cool and easy to do and it is so a statement piece. It is the jewel of my computer set up!!!!
The only thing I have to say about this is that the box for it came a little bit damaged but my keyboard was fine so that's all that matters! Also, the keyboard is very loud so if you want something quiet then this is not for you. It is beautiful, loud, and so worth every last penny I spent!!!!!!
Anika Pitts
I will be honest I bought this on a whim as a treat for myself. It took me a little bit to figure out all the color combinations... there are a lot. But it an amazing keyboard. I like noise making keyboards and this one just has a very pleasing sound. Cleaning it is way easier than a regular keyboard which I wasn't expecting but my ocd thanks.
Overall this is the best ( and personal favorite) keyboard I own and I own 4.
Elsa Richmond
Thought about getting a mechanical keyboard for awhile to spice up my WFH setting and I am so glad I went with this one. First of all, the keys and light programming are beautiful (and it goes well with my RGB large mousepad). I love all of the options available for the lights/colors as well as the feel of the keys. If you don't want a "noisy" keyboard, this one isn't for you though. I personally enjoy the sounds this makes as I type, so I'm very happy with this purchase. Worth the cost!
Ravi Sexton
I adore this keyboard.
It is has a nice clacking to it and isn't too loud as to annoy everyone in my office.... yet :)
I haven't messed with the color settings yet, but I really do not see the need when the color wave is so nice. I needed to bring some happiness into my workspace and this was just what I needed.
Angela Sykes
I needed a keyboard to work from home. I love a click-y keyboard and this is it. I love the retro typewriter style keys as well. It is a little loud but I like that. It eVen came with a tool to pull off the key cap if I were so inclined. I am VERY happy with my purchase!
Sanaa Marsh
absolutely adore this keyboard! Shipping took a little bit longer than I expected. But only by a few days. The color is great. I love the option when you click the keys and it send light across the board. And you can change the patterns of it and the color. I tend to pick a light blue color and a red that goes diagonal across when I click the keys. And I live the sound. Not too fond of the wrist pad thing. I wish that was a little thicker since I have it on the incline. I'll probably eventually take it off or bend it under and get a wrist pad instead to use properly. And yes as other reviews have mentioned it is a metal hinge for the wrist pad so if you have that open and push you keyboard, more so with pressure, it could scratch the surface. I just have fabric underneath that part for now to avoid marks.
Brendan
I am so in love with my retro keyboard. My daughter got one in pink ans when I heard it, I had to get one for myself. Yes, its a gaming keyboard, but a keyboard nonetheless. As a writer, I like the lighting although I havent changed the way it glows
It arrived on time and so far, Im thrilled.
Corrina Fuentes
It FINALLY came in! Yaaaaay! This is the most beautiful keyboard I’ve ever seen. As to why I was soooo antsy when I thought it got stuck in limbo T.T thank you so much for this
Just plug in and go! I saw some review that had an issue with his Mac but I own an iMac and it worked just fine. Just plug it into the USB port and tap the keys the pop up tells you next to the Shift buttons. Then boom, done.
Moesha Edge
If you like a nice clickety mechanical keyboard with RGB and a NumPad, this is the once for you. The keys do not feel cheap and all the keys are functional. The wrist pad is a nice touch and folds underneath. The lights work great. It has a nice long cord. Overall very satisfied. I will update if I have any issues.
Coral Paul
This is the best typewriter I have ever seen. This is hard to get used to at first but it makes me want to type. I keep accidentally hitting extra keys because I am not yet used to how raised the keys are and they are close together. I honestly love this keyboard. I am itching for that bell sound though but I can't expect that from something that doesn't need to be pushed back. All- in- all, I love the clicking sound and I love the keyboard. It doesn’t sound exactly like a typewriter (as someone who owns one) It isn’t as heavy sounding but I believe it is as close as an electric typewriter keyboard can get. I love it.
Awais Seymour
So let me start off by saying I am one of the hardest people to please when it comes to keyboards and this one really blew me away. Not only are the colors beautiful but the clicks are seamless. The gliding from one key to another is effortless. I love how any key can be any color you want it. I also love the presets as well. I love the style and texture of the keys and I truly impressed. I am a twitch streamer so I am going to test this out for the next couple of months and see if it holds up! I hope this helps you make your choice!
Myrtle Blaese
I am absolutely in love with this keyboard! The lights, the sounds, and the feel. For someone who has long fingers, this is by far the best feeling keyboard I have ever used. I purchased this product for work, yes I have a personal office, and after 8+ hours, my wrists and fingers are still as if they have been rested and relaxed for the day. I would purchase this keyboard again and again! I have had so many compliments! Thank you Royal Kludge and Amazon!
Klaudia
LOVE THIS !!!!
Got this bc I love the whole typewriter style vibe to it . It indeed goes clickity clack for my liking . Only gaming I do is sims but I enjoy typing motherlode just to hear it ✨clickity clack✨ It has loads of color settings to it and I have yet to try them all out but for now I keep it at the rainbow mode .
10/10 recommend if you like noisy keyboards and definitely recommend it more if you like your keyboards to look like rainbow road.
Shreya Henson
Loving this keyboard! It lights up beautifully.
The clicking of the keys isn’t overtly loud, so you get the mechanical illusion without it being super annoying.
Benn Boyle
I love the look the sound of the keyboard, but my f and up arrow button silver parts have cracks in it and I used my F7 key once and it snapped off.
Bentley
I'm excited to leave a review on this product because I absolutely love it. Been using it for a few months now and I can happily recommend it.
Christian Krueger
I love this keyboard, the colors and different color changes and setting are so fun to play around with. It will take some getting used to as far as typing, but as someone who loves the sound of typing, 10/10 functional, stylish and asthetically pleasing
Laila Hendrix
Keyboard arrived quick with zero damage to the item or packaging. The only issues I have so far is that the old school type writer keys will take some time to get used to (specifically while gaming) and there is no caps lock light to indicate whether its on/off. The software allows you to control the RGB lightning, you'll need to download it off of the internet.
Khadeejah Moon
Very beautiful choice of colors. It really brings my desk together. I kind of do wish I had more solid color options, instead of teal. It sounds amazing and feels amazing. Nothing was broken during shipment, and I’m very happy
Reid Collier
I just received this keyboard in the mail and I'm over the moon about how VIBRANT it is! It is clicky but it's quieter than I expected but that's on me not combing over the reviews enough to find that information. Thank you so much for also putting the controls on the listing as well. Very helpful!!
Lily-Ann Lam
Fairly clacky, which I want. Looks great, the lights are pretty bright. Honestly a good value for the price!
Kiaan Mendoza
I absolutely love this keyboard. Everything from all the colors, to how it performs is perfect. Love it love it love it.
Simrah Newman
I work from home and this keyboard is perfect, nothing wrong with it besides me thinking it was damaged because the box was banged up but other than that it is great!! Instructions are in a different language but is a easy switch to English on the website from the QR code!! I was nervous about reviews with getting used to typing but it isn’t what I thought it would be, I feel like I type faster!! Lol I do recommend doing free typing tests just to break it in but after that you’re golden!!!
Minnie
This keyboard has been in my wish list for months and I finally got it and MAAAAN I am so happy with it.
It's so bright and colorful and the keyboard is so smooth and quiet. I love how unique it looks and I have gotten many compliments from my fellow gamer friends. GET IT
