mixed bag

I ordered the keyboard kit and the keyboard itself was fine, one key in the top left corner will not sit level with the rest. But I also ordered keycaps along with it from Keeb Monkey that never showed up, and when i asked about it I was met with near 0 help and I never got the money back.

Inexpensive but good value.

I purchased the KBM100 Pro. It works great, and was a terrific introduction to the world of custom keyboards. I would definitely recommend it.

Board Review

Now that the board is completely installed and working I'm very satisfied with it, the packaging was good.

However, the manual is not sufficient for a novice board. Being labelled as a product towards novices, I would've expected it to be better and more user friendly. I needed to do a lot of finnicking and asking around just to fix a really basic issue. Which I'm sure for someone who has built a few keyboards wouldnt be any problem. but a novice is someone who is new, therefore it should be a bigger help for someone who has never done this before.

If the manual is this basic for the purpose of reducing costs to keep it affordable, then I would recommend simply having a link/qr code that leads to more adequate information or perhaps a video example of someone installing it.

Great improvement over the Tester68

I already had the Tester68 (aka TES68, CIY's cheapest board at about 20$) when I ordered the KBM84Pro and it's truely a big improvement in so many areas:
* flippable feet
* backlighting
* wired connection
* can switch between Windows + Mac layout
...and most importantly:
* the stabilizers are WAY less rattly

Wow

The keyboard feels amazing and it's surprisingly heavy considering what it's made of and it even has lube. I would consider it a steal for such a price but it did have a few wrongs, one isn't that crucial but in the preview it is shown you get 2 AAA batteries but I only got 1 not that horrible because I can buy ones but is annoying and the other thing is that one of the plate mount stabs is stuck and isn't coming out and I will need to open it completely to try to fix it. overall a great keyboard if only minor problems that are fixable.
