Click clack

 

I cannot believe it took this long for someone to make a quality, numberpadless-but-otherwise-full size keyboard.

1. Full-size keys ; 2. Standard layout, they just eliminated the number pad ; 3. Standard mini-USB connector on the chassis. Cord's not integrated into the chassis, for easy replacement ; 4. Nice cloth-wrapped USB cable ; 5....

Little on the heavy side, so probably not a great laptop/tablet accessory

Great First Mechanical Keyboard

 

This is my first mechanical keyboard. I've had it for about 6 months and I absolutely love it. The keyboard is heavy and feels substantial so it doesn't slide around when you use it. I'm a programmer and Cherry Blue switches are amazing for typing...

High quality mechanical keys ; Substantial weight ; Has no number pad

Decent Mechanical Keyboard

 

Decent price. Good solid build quality. Cheery MX blue switches feel nice to type and game on

WASD Red keys are fading. Talked to a Coolermaster rep about this, and was told I was out of luck, and had to go replace them myself

So far impressed

 

I placed my order no a Tuesday before noon, selected the free Egg Saver shipping and couldn't believe it when the box showed up Wednesday afternoon. I wouldn't guarantee that'll be the case for anyone else but dang, that's a heck of a way to keep me...

I'll preface by saying this is my first mechanical keyboard and I've had it an hour so take this with a grain of salt, perhaps ; Coming from a Logitech G110, for which I had very few complaints, the build quality of the CM Storm Quickfire Rapid feels...

None so far. I suppose I may end up needing a pad for my wrist as the front of the keyboard is quite high, but I knew that going in

Great keyboard

 

First of all, the keyboard looks really nice. It has a nice color scheme, the keys are easily readable, and the finish on the board is good. The keys feel great and the spacing is good. I like the fact that it is compact, but some people do not. It...

There are only two cons that I can think of. The first is that if you want a numpad, this keyboard doesn't have one ; The second con is that the finish on the keyboard isn't the easiest thing to clean in the world. When it gets dusty, I have to spend...

Awesome Keyboard

 

My first mechanical keyboard, so glad I got this one. The small form factor is awesome because I can have my mouse closer to my other hand for an overall more comfortable position, especially when playing games.

So much better than a rubber dome keyboard, my typing speed has increased by more than 20 percent, great for gaming and typing. Small form factor and very durable construction

Good keyboard

 

if you've never owned a mechanical keyboard like me, this is a safe choice for you. Great and satisfied.

First time using a mechanical keyboard, did a lot of research and finally chose to purchase this one. I do a lot of typing, so this is perfect for churning out long long papers and documents. I also play LoL and some FPS' so mechanics-wise I want to...

None whatsoever

mediocre

 

wouldn't recommend this keyboard because of the connector/usb cable issue, other than that is fine.

nice looking, can track most of your keys when typing

FREAKING cable, believe me, i got one of the bad ones where if the cable moves too much it just spams keys without even pressing them ; Tried to contact cooler master just to be told, like as if i was stupid or something that i couldn't receive a rma...

Very Cost Effcient

 

If you're searching for a good cost efficient mechanical keyboard worry no more! The lacks of the keyboard are replaced by some useful accesories plus an excellent built quality. One week after I good it it rained all over my keyboard, but nothing was...

Good quality over some mechanical keyboards and good built quality

No macro keys or Backlighting (does not bother me at all), Lack of a Numpad
