RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK918 Wired Mechanical Keyboard, RGB Backlit Gaming Keyboard with Large LED Sorrounding Side Lamp, Full Size 108 Keys Mechanical 100% Anti-Ghosting Computer Keyboard, Red Switch White

Wow. This keyboard actually surprised me at its price point. I was fairly sure that it was going to be a China special, but its actually tenable for everyday things (for me, anyway). Im not a keyboard connoisseur, by any means, so grain of salt here. It has a metal faceplate on the base that seems to keep flex to a minimum when typing. Can you twist it by torquing both ends? Yes, but it doesnt feel flimsy. The switches are perfectly serviceable linear switches (not tactile), that have a nice feeling amount of travel. Theyre not overly noisy, but are more noisy than a mushy membrane keyboard. The lighting options are actually kind of absurd at this price, but a neat bonus.

Im new to mechanical keyboards, though I did research switches before purchasing. This keyboard is great. Changes colors, gas different modes, you can set colors, and you can swap out keycaps. I bought it in white for myself and then my boyfriend loved it so he got it in black for his birthday. Definitely affordable and a great option for working or gaming.

Honestly, I bought this keyboard so I could be extra in my office. I tried four different keyboards before settling on this one. It is good for touch-typing and is quiet enough for where I work (though not completely silent). I prefer blue switches for gaming (specifically my Logitech G710+) but I would definitely recommend this for gaming if you want something inexpensive! The many different RGB options are super fun and Im blown away by how good of a value this keyboard is between the switches, layout, and RGB. The keycaps are swappable, too.

Excellent quality for the price of $40. Great stuff.

I wanted to try a mechanical keyboard, but specifically I wanted one that was white, full sized, and had RGB lighting options. I also couldnt afford one of the more expensive name brands and didnt want to invest in one until I tried it out. This ticks all my boxes and Im very happy with it so far! I havent tried swapping the keys for other styles but I look forward to doing that out soon. The clacky sound is satisfying but not too loud-- I got red switches and they are pretty subtle. My boyfriend and I work in the same space and my keyboard is definitely not as loud as his, which I find to be a bit too loud (I think he has brown switches). I love all the lighting options as well, there are many to choose to from. Overall I definitely recommend this keyboard to those looking for one!

Not too much clack and quite attractive LED colors. Easy to clean too.

Gorgeous keyboard. The lighting features are awesome. Its wired so you dont have to worry about charging it. The keys are comfortable and slightly louder than your run of the mill normal keyboard. I found that it was slightly wobbly laying flat but if you use those little kickstands on the bottom it doesnt budge. You can swap the keycaps. Its got a premium feel, its not a lightweight cheap piece of plastic. Instructional manual is easy to understand. Im no expert in mechanical keyboards but at this price it seems like a great value for the money. I think this keyboard is perfect for people who want to dive into the world of mech keyboards without paying hundreds of dollars and for people who want to add a beautiful lighting/color accent to their desk. I dont have any gripes but if something arises Ill update my post. As of now I am very, very happy with it. 10/10

I love how relatively inexpensive this keyboard is for the amazing quality. The rgb is amazing and its very sturdy. It doesnt feel like its going to break easily. I got the brown switches and its pretty great! Sounds nice.

i love a good keyboard. This one is big enough that i dont hit multiple keys while typing. I love the way it lights up and i love the way the keys sound as Im typing. i work in an office and this was perfect for my setup.

I have at least three other Royal Kludge keyboards, and love them to death, but this one seems to be a step down in build quality. Thats okay, cuz it was a bit cheaper than my other purchases, and is quite a bargain for an entry level mechanical keyboard... which is all I was looking for.
