MXX Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - 87 Keys,White Backlit, Blue Switches, Grey Aluminum Cover, N-Key Rollover

Amazing keyboard, amazing customer service. I would order from CTS Warehouse and Rantopad again.Never thought I would enjoy a smaller keyboard but I was wrong! It's nice and compact, very comfortable to type with, and the color is awesome. I was expecting a lighter silver (but hoping for a dark chrome finish) and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. It's a dark grey chrome color, and it looks like it is super nice quality. The keys are loud, but not an overly annoying clicky sound like I've seen before. I was between buying a rantopad and a daskeyboard, but after seeing this and trying out the daskeyboard at the store, this is such a better pick (price and quality wise). The keys are nice quality and the keyboard itself has a nice weight to it, it doesn't feel like it'll snap in half or anything.If you're on the fence about getting this, I would definitely recommend taking the leap and trying it out.

Good keyboard, had to return the first one though. Be sure to test everything out before the return date passes you by.

Precisely what I had hoped for in a spare keyboard, and while it's listed as a "gaming keyboard" my primary use for it is writing. Are the Blues noisy? Yes -- this is not something one wants to use in a small office or at home around others, but as for the feel and speed ability for typing, it's fantastic. Well-constructed, attractive look, and the numeric keypad was not missed. Certainly recommended for writers (and gamers) looking for an inexpensive mechanical keyboard either as entry-level or as a spare.

I love this keyboard, but the number keys stopped working consistently after about 5 months of regular use. Since it does not have a 10 key, it is pretty much useless. I have emailed Rantopad USA and I am hoping that they will be helpful. Will update after I have worked out a solution with them. I was expecting this thing to last forever. Seems like the build quality is stellar and I was super happy with it until the problem I mentioned.Update - Rantopad is super cool and replaced it for free. Even gave me an upgrade to their newest keyboard. Phil at Rantopad is very helpful. They sent me a new one right away with Cherry MX's and I really like the new black shell.

The media could not be loaded. (7/1/2017 - Updated) I want to like this keyboard. I really do but its just been so riddled with issues. Changing light effects, lights are off in certain keys, certain keys don't even function or literally make every key in the line active. Example would be if i pressed right shift i get "zxcvbnm,.?". It doesn't matter if I plug it into a new computer and new keyboards don't have the issue. I'm really sad because it really is a cost effective mechanical keyboard. Looks sleek, feels sturdy, isn't too pricey... but it feels like its just falling apart. Even the space bar is less tactile on one side. If you want to risk it and it doesn't break on you its a great keyboard (though it is louder than cherry blues), otherwise, recommend buying something else. Keys are definitely not tight. For the most part I've been pleased but the space bar just didn't hold out for very long. I guess its because I press it from the edges and not in the center but that's a silly reason. The plastic sometimes gets caught and causes the space bar to get stuck. You can see in the video I have it snagged. If I repress it comes undone but It can be annoying. Shame really. Also had the keys not work at times but i'm unsure if this is an issue on my part with my computer or the board.

It's a great keyboard for the money. The keys have a consistent tactile feel. NKRO works. Overall build quality looks good, feels solid. Like others, mine didn't come with an English manual. However, the seller contacted me a few days after I received it, and provided an English manual via email. Hopefully, in the future, they'll include it with the keyboard.

This is my "first" entry into Mechanical Keyboards since they were standard some dozens of years ago. The keyboard is nicely laid out and "clicky", which I like. My wife not so much. The construction of the base is metal, and is angled slightly up from the rear of the keyboard. The keyboard stays in place on my nice waxed wood desktop, so the "feet" have a bit of a grip. The lighting settings are pretty straight forward and the are a few of them. Just keep in mind this in NOT an RGB LED backlight, it is a nice bright white at highest setting, with a dull white at the lowest.My only issue is that the braided USB cable that attaches to the keyboard will not give up its "figure 8" bends, even after allowing the cable to "relax" in the sun for several hours and taped down in a straight line. Also the connection to the keyboard itself is a full size USB molded to fit into the connection are, where as many of the newer Mechanical keyboards I have read about use a Micro USB connection, which allows for many cable options. Not sure if a "replacement" cable can be used with this keyboard or if it would require a propitiatory "molded head".The "Blues" are a bit "light-weight" for my liking, but :"Blacks" were not an option, even though there are other independent reviews online for this same keyboard with "Blacks". But ultimately I think I would need "Clears".I would recommend this keyboard for anyone looking to get into Mechanical Keyboards, as I find this to be a well made everyday use or "starter" keyboard.Update as of July 22nd, 2016I am starting to run into "soft" keys. Especially the G H J K L keys. While I do have some strong fingers, it appears to be way to soon for them to become this soft. Yes, I check the board, and made sure the keys are clean and clear. In fact I wash my hands before I use my input devices, and keep them covered when not in use. I would also state that I do not use this board for more than an 1.5 hours per day on average. I will update again if more keys go soft. Dropping 1 (one) star, from 4 to 3 due to this keyboard only being 4 months old.
