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

I am not using it for anything too crazy, but it works how I expected to and I like the switch sounds!

Mine shipped directly in the keyboard box, no extra padding or sealing. In shipping ~60% of the key caps popped off and I think the 5 keys switch was slightly damaged and is on a hair trigger relative to the rest of the keys. The keyboard is lovely, click-y and looks great, but its hard to recommend given the way it ships.

The keyboard did arrive with the shift key cap not on, but to place it correctly on the keyboard was not a hassle. I bought this keyboard for my work space and I love it! The keyboard feels like high quality! It’s not like the Razor keyboard where you have to install an app to make changes to the LED colors. You can press and hold FN + Ins to change the settings. The instructions that came with the keyboard were very clear and straightforward. I purchased the keyboard with the blue switch, and I thoroughly enjoy the click clack sound. If you want a quieter keyboard, do not choose the blue switch. I definitely recommend this keyboard! I would get another for my gaming PC, but maybe with a different switch for gaming purposes.

I have vision issues and my old black back lit keyboard was not doing the trick. Love the brightness of the backlights, the face that the bottom of the keyboard light up and the best feature is when you have Num lock and Caps lock light up a different color when engaged! No longer have to wonder if Caps lock is engaged or not (I use Caps a lot with work, so easy to glance down to see if it is on.) Got the red switches (first keyboard with these). Feels smooth to type and very fast response time. Even got me one for work so I use it at work and home all day every day. Love everything about this keyboard!

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.

I bought this for work, not so much for gaming and I have been getting nothing but great compliments about it. I love it!!!

After 4 months, it died on me. You get what you pay for I guess. Worked great while it lasted, though I would hope a keyboard would last longer than 4 months even on the budget side of things. the ZXCVBNM row just suddenly stopped working in the middle of a game. I wouldnt go as far as saying, dont buy it, it was nice and my case could just be a fluke. The RGB settings leave something to be desired, if youre looking for a keyboard to customize, you might want to consider pricier options.

This is the best and brightest keyboard I ever had. Love all the RGB features its has and is easy to use to change the RGB. Typing is good on here as well. Love that it is a full keyboard. Great for gaming. I highly recommend this keyboard.

Brown switch / mechanical keyboard: full size 108 key design YES RGB options wonderful, so many to pick YES lighting bright YES medium clicky YES Will I enjoy this? YES The weight is not cheap, compact(ish) but still full size its daytime and my office lights are on, my windows are bright and the RGB still looks awesome Very happy I chose this keyboard. Is it worth the price? MEHHHHHHHH

I had bought a 60% keyboard and loved it (another RK Royal Kludge product) but realized how much I missed directional buttons, function keys and a number pad. I figured that since I loved my other RK Royal Kludge keyboard Id give this a try. Out of the box, my first impression was, Wow, this feels cheap compared to the other keyboard. The other keyboard has an aluminum frame, where this is surrounded by LEDs. Theyre bright, dont get me wrong but the frame doesnt feel nearly as premium. The buttons feel very clacky which the other RK Kludge keyboard didnt have, even for brown switches. It wasnt easily noted what type of switches it used, so color me surprised when I found out these were nondescript RK switches. Not sure if this will matter to you but the cord is attached to the keyboard. This is it for the cons. The mixed bag portion: While I love having function keys, directional buttons and a number pad back, I forgot why I gave it up in the first place. While gaming, my mouse has to sit much further out than my arm is comfortable with. Imagine a splayed out configuration which is awkward for long gaming sessions. This isnt the fault of the keyboard as all full size keyboards will be like this. Things I liked: The keyboard is crazy bright, and the floating keys along with the LED rimming the keyboard frame means your keyboard will dazzle you in a darkened room. Overall, I liked it okay, but realized I needed more space to move the mouse around. Its absolutely worth the price, especially if this is your first foray into the mechanical keyboard world.
