Keebmonkey 1800 Gasket Keyboard Kit

only small complaint is opening the board was a little bit annoying, screws holding the plastic cover wouldve been lovely.

I'm a mechanical keyboard noob, went with this because it was one of the only ones I could find in the 1800 layout, which I was dead set on getting, and because of the price. Shipping wasn't terribly long, packaging was very secure. Love all the LED modes, and although the lights look more pink/purple than white I honestly like that more. Really the only complaint I could make is that a few of the stabilizers were over-lubed so a few keys were sticky, nothing I couldn't fix on my own. Also, if you're really into custom modding the PCB and plate stuff, you'd have to take apart the casing to get into it and it was REALLY hard to pull apart. Had to wedge several thin flathead screwdrivers in between the panels to push in the tabs, definitely gouged the plastic a little. All that aside, really happy with this purchase!

I was shocked. I expected less quality for the price point. This is my daily driver in the office. The stabs were lubed and the keycaps are thick. The sound profile is great as well. I recommend tape and foam to mute the bottom out noise. I would buy this again. Plan to wait a while for shipping.

The switches I transferred to it sound so much better, with the board has a nice bit of bounce. It feels solid and has a good weight (without having to resort to an added weight). Really, a great overall value.

Keyboard is really nice, stabs are well lubed with barely to no rattling or pinging, software is okay. One hotswap socket doesn't work even with different switches used, and customer service hasn't replied back in over a week. Unless you have experience soldering, you'll be on your own if you buy this keyboard.

It has been almost two months and I still have not received the board. I try and contact for support but they are not helpful. I might change the review once I get the board. For now, do not get the board unless you want to buy something for your old age.

This is my end-game keyboard at a reasonable price.
