Consumer review (newegg.com)

Excellent keyboard! Dat Durability!

 

So why use a gaming keyboard at work? Why not? It types well and it looks cool. I get compliments on it all the time. The MX blues are fantastic keys to type on. What more could you want? Also, I use my keyboard and mouse more at work than at home. So...

Purchased from another online retailer in June, 2013. It has been my daily driver at work for nearly 3 years. Thats 8 hours per day, 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Adjusted for days off and time not typing, I would say I have a solid 4500 hours on...

I will say that the finish is wearing off of the A, S, D, E, C and Shift keys as well as the Spacebar. The palm rest is also pretty beat up. With as much typing as I do, none of this is surprising. The keyboard just looks well loved and used, not beat...

my first mechnical keyboard!

 

The "click" is already loud, if you bottom out your keys, there will also be a "clack" sound which makes it even louder. I put rubber o-rings on each key of my keyboard and it helps a little with the sound, it prevents the keys from bottoming out so co...

mx-blues with the tactile feedback, great feel on my fingers.

the clicky sound is really loud! I should have went with browns.

Update

 

This is a message, not to newegg but to Cooler Master, you guys need to get your customer service act together. I don't know what I have to do to even be able to get someone on the phone and talk to them! At first, when I RMA'd the keyboard, I got a...

This is a good keyboard, when it works, and my gripe isn't even with the keyboard. (see cons/other thoughts)

The keyboard stopped working almost 4 months after purchase, with absolutely no reason for it at all! I RMA'd it, and am waiting for a return phone call. (see other thoughts)

good keyboard bad wrist rest

 

Good keyboard! I like the LED back light. BlueSiwtch is good for typing although it is a little noisy.

Wrist rest is bull ***t! The surface was badly chipped!

Brilliant

 

Great overall keybord, but it has its downsides, wish i could have found one with the cherry green switches but couldnt find one, guess they where limited edition, I GOT NEWEGGS LAST ONE !!! and it only cost $99.99

This Keyboard has amazing backlighting, can see no need to have extra levels using a 5vDC, really bright, the red doesnt look washed out at all, Cherry blues are awsome, very strong build quality, the revision I got has a full length shift key, some...

allthough the usb plug is fairly strong could be different and anything but micro usb... just a nit pick that could result in future issues, no PS/2 or NKRO, no big deal. If youve never done it before macros can be confusing to set up, seems like max...

Now it works, now it doesn't

 

Why say there's 5 levels of lighting if you're not going to include the power supply? Why make such a complicated macro program? I also did not purchase this through newegg, i just wanted to point out my problems with this keyboard.

CM Storm Trigger is a great keyboard in general. Nice LEDs, 3 different modes, blue switches feel great although I would have purchased brown switches if available, I love this font on the keyboard, comes with a nice matte wrist rest, whole key board...

Although this keyboard is great, it has it's flaws. The box said there was 5 levels of lighting, that's only with an external power supply. Also, after a few gaming sessions the keyboard started to act up; LEDs would start flinkering, the whole...

Documentation worthless

 

If you are looking for a good typing keyboard with macro support and nighttime typing this isn't a bad choice. If you for example want to know how to make the multimedia keys work, well I am still trying to figure that out.

The CherryMX blue keyboard is the best typing keyboards I have seen since the early 80s reminding me of an IBM Selectric typewriter. My accuracy and speed have improved the short time I have had this board. The lit keyboard is perfect for day or night...

Documentation is the absolute worst I have seen on any product in this price range.(can you say worthless as a mammary gland on a boar) The online manual for the key board drops you to a page not found error (as well as several of the FAQs.at their...

Very Satisfied

 

This is my first mechanical keyboard and I could not be more happy about my purchase. The cherry mx blue switches sound spectacular and work great. I have only had this keyboard for about 2 weeks but everything was extremely easy to install and the...

I started to notice a slight ping sound when I press the space key but I don't think it's a big deal.

Not working after 3 weeks

 

Would not recommend to those who don't have patience for a non-updated- super-hard- to-use driver. First time purchase a CM Storm product, not sure if I will consider next time.

great design, nice blue switch feel. decent price when on sale.

1, Right storm key now working after 3 weeks can't adjust light or use any media key right now. 2, Very slow customer support . 3, Driver so hard to use. 4,I can use it now, but I have to let the driver software open(can't even put it in system tray).

My Computer Is Too Fast For it

 

Great Feel, Programable keys.

My computer boots to fast and I have to unplug the USB and plug it back it in after boot in order for it to work. (First World Problems) Ultimately had to get a new keyboard (Quick Fire Pro). This is because the keyboard has some onboard memory that...
