Very solidly built keyboard. Even though the mechanical keys do not make a clicking sound, the actuation of the key presses are very positive. It doesn't take very much pressure to register a key input.

I recently spent 900 plus dollars on a new computer and this is maybe my favorite part of that. Satisfying, clean looking keyboard all around.
It is on the louder side, so be aware of that.

It is basic with a sleek design. I love typing on it and it was cheaper than others that were pretty much identical to it. I think this one is a better buy if your looking for something basic.

Excellent mechanical keyboard. Tried a wireless Surface keyboard and there was lag, this one plugs in and works great. Not all the bells and whistles some have, but it works.

I'm older and have catcher's mitts for hands. I can touch type very well on older typewriters with key spacing designed for humans, but modern computer keyboards are so small and dinky that I cannot use them. It was suggested that a gaming keyboard might be the solution, so after a long while searching and finding everything I looked at loaded with colored backlighting and other frivolous bells and whistles, I finally found this basic keyboard that does everything I need it to do with no fumbling around. It is simply amazing.

If you like the feel of a mechanical keyboard that takes up very little space on your desk, this keyboard is awesome! Love the feel of typing on it, and the numberpad feels very similar to my calculator so the transfer back and forth of using them is smooth. Logitech also offers programmable keys if you download their "Logitech options". I like to use some of these keys for cut, copy, paste. I tried out quite a few other keyboards, some at 4x the price of this one, but returned all others. Only downside for me is seeing the wire, but I'll accept that considering all the other perks.

This is a really good mechanical keyboard, but close to time for the extended warranty to come up, the shift key started sticking unexpectedly.

Nice feel to key response, not too hard or too soft for a "less expensive" keyboard . This time I got a warranty on it to cover another "accidental" spill on it like its predecessor.

We bought this keyboard for one of the staff members in our office. She was using a typical work keyboard that we had at the desk and asked if we were able to get her a keyboard that had the keys raised up. After looking on Best Buy's website for a while at keyboards, we came across this one and decided that it may be what she needs. She has been using this keyboard for about a month or so now and says it is the best keyboard she has typed on for work. We spend about 9 hours a day at our desks typing and this keyboard is perfect for her.

It has very responsive keys that feel great when your gaming. The clicks to me are kind of reassuring that they are being pressed during high intense gaming sessions.

Excellent keyboard - exceeds expectations.

This keyboard has an excellent typing "action" with what feels (to me) like optimal key spacing and key spring rate. The big surprise has been the visibility - the white characters on nonreflective black key surfaces are visually superior and help me, a lower-skilled typist (with the manual dexterity of a critter with hooves), to type with noticeably fewer errors. I never realized how much keyboard visibility affected my accuracy. Note that the keys do make a metallic sound as others have remarked, but it is easy to get used to and doesn't bother me at all.

I am a fast typer. I like key action that does not slow me down. All the other features are those that you would expect in a keyboard.
