5 out of 5 eggsLove it! What a DEAL!

Pros: The touch and feel of the keys and their responsiveness is very elegant. The actuation and depth of the Kailh Blues is great. The sound of the keys is wonderful to me. The nice, loud, satisfying click and clack sound I was looking for. The backlighting is great! I was a bit worried about the glow under coming from under the keys being too bright but its a non-factor that, if anything, looks good. The palm rest is comfortable and has a good texture. The brushed backing looks classy. The volume scroll and mute works like a charm out of the box on both Win7 and Ubuntu 14.04. The other [FN] functions worked perfect on Windows and for the most part on Ubuntu. The price of this keyboard was half of others I was browsing but I find myself very happy with purchase, not looking back at all. Braided cable too? C'mon, AZIO killed it on this one!

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: If you're even considering this keyboard, pull the trigger.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat keyboard!

Pros: -Frame is made out of aluminum.
-Feels lightweight and sturdy.
-Comes with a key puller for easy cleaning and maintenance.
-Super responsive, so great for competitive gaming.
-Functions just as well as keyboards like the Ducky Shine which are a lot more expensive.
-Has a removable palm rest.

Cons: -Keys only back-lit in white, but still looks slick! (not even really a con).

Other Thoughts: All-around a great product!

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Mechanical Keyboard, For First Time user!

Pros: This keyboard is possibly one of the best investments I've ever made. After about 5 years of membrane, I made the switch. I wanted to get a K70, but I just didn't have the money. I decided to choose this, even though I had never heard of AZIO before.

Cons: I've noticed the WASD keys seem to feel a little less clicky after some harder use, but it seems okay after a couple hours of standby use. It's also quite loud, but that may just be me.

Other Thoughts: This keyboard is my go-to keyboard whenever I want to play CS:GO. It's great for everything, but I love it with CS:GO.

5 out of 5 eggsAwesome Keyboard!

Pros: -Solid Build Quality
-Good Pricing
-Nice Feel
-Backlighting is on-point

Cons: -Back Plate is plastic

Other Thoughts: I really like this keyboard! It feels great and sounds really nice, not too loud and backlight is perfect! The only thing I wish is that the red plastic on the bottom was aluminum or something, but all-in-all it's really good!

5 out of 5 eggsreview

Pros: -product arrived in a timely manner with no damages
-keyboard looks slick for the price of a cheap mechanical keyboard.
-performance and quality of the keyboard i cannot say anything at the moment because it was a gift for my twin brother but i'm fairly certain that it will probably out perform any cheapo keyboard a casual computer user will have.

Cons: n/a

Other Thoughts: i would definitely recommended this to anyone on a budget looking for a keyboard with a affordable price and want something higher grade compared to a standard keyboard.

5 out of 5 eggsVery Good Keyboard! Feels Great! Sounds Good! Good Price!

Pros: This keyboard blew away my expectations. Sure I'll get dislikes for this review because this is my first time owning a Mechanical keyboard, all though I have tried different Mechanical Keyboard brands at Best Buy display (Plugged in) but I got to admit this is better than the $120 Razer keyboard I tried. Very very solid build, very good quality, very nice metal or aluminum jet black finish. The Lighting is just perfect. Not overly bright, and not too dim. The wrist rest is a nice addition, will definitely use mine On all the time. The braided cable is a really nice touch. This Keyboard has really good build quality, honestly better than the Razer keyboards I tried. It might not be a $120 keyboard but trust me you can not go wrong with this one whether its your first time owning a mechanical keyboard or not. Never using membrane. Honestly is that good.

I can control the Volume from the Keyboard, I can Lock the Windows Key. It also has many other FN functionalities. If you are looking for a Mechanical keyboard but don't want to spend tons of money? Buy this Keyboard, you won't regret it.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Very surprised and satisfied by this Brand. Never heard of them before, bought it because of the Price of $59. Would definitely feel very confident in buying more products from them, at least so far I really am happy with this purchase. Would recommend this Keyboard to anyone.

5 out of 5 eggsSimply a great keyboard

Pros: Nothing beats a mechanical keyboard. The feel, response and sound of the keys is exactly what I was looking for. The brightness of the LEDs is perfect..not annoyingly bright. The look is almost perfect. Aside from the red bottom, it's just simple and elegant.

Cons: Would have liked the bottom to black. Other than that, none.

Other Thoughts: For under $70, this keyboard gave me more than I expected. After seeing a few people complain about the stabilizer bars under the larger keys, I will say, yes, there is a difference in their feel, but at this price it's not even close to a deal breaker. Basically, if you are looking for great entry level mechanical keyboard, this is it.

5 out of 5 eggsNot bad at all!!!!!

Pros: - Backlit keyboard
- Plug and play
- Hot keys

Cons: - A little louder than my old keyboard...but I knew that before purchasing (referring to key strokes)

Other Thoughts: Keyboard is plug and play, very easy....it's a definite improvement over my original system keyboard.....love the backlit LED's....a little different than my other keyboard, not hard to get used to it........key strokes are a little louder, but not that I would complain about, plus I knew this before I purchased the board (review on YouTube).....the braided cord is a nice touch and the aluminum keyboard back plate as well....have no regrets thus far, and this is an initial impressions review. Ordered the matching mouse as well. First time using Newegg and no complaints there either...standard shipping and free....product arrived free of any damaged and packaged well.

5 out of 5 eggsFirst Impressions.

Pros: The keyboard itself just looks cool. Its, very well lit, easy to set up, and pretty responsive so far. When first taking the keyboard out of the box, the wrist pad seems like it wouldn't be very comfortable at all, but holds up well in use. The volume roller is very convenient as well.

Cons: So far, I haven't noticed any.

Other Thoughts: This is the first mechanical keyboard I have ever owned, and it's looking like I'd never switch back to a regular one. More color options would have been nice though.
