Great keyboard
Wonderful feel to it. No missing strokes or hanging keys and great sensitivity for the springs on the keys. I wouldn't change a thing.
It's heavy and metal or metal alloy points, not all plastic parts, like so many other new keyboards. When I need a new one, I'll get another one of these.
Excellent Mechnical Keyboard
I don't usually do reviews, but this kb is really worth it, so I hope this helps someone after me. Admittedly, this was my first mechanical keyboard, so I was looking for a budget-friendly keyboard to try. Did lots of research online; watched a lot of vids. The Eluktronics mkb hit most of the check-boxes for what I was looking for, and imo is a deal at $50. It has a really solid metal build, Outemu keys switches RGB keys and control app with macros, a hand rest and braided cord. So I went ahead and bought it, and honestly am really happy with the product, and would definitely recommend to some looking for a great mkb at this price.
Room for improvement though: The only things I wanted that it doesn't have are a volume rocker, USB pass thrus, and hot-swappable Gateron or CherryMX switches (read that these are better than Outemus?). Would have paid more for these if they were available. Perhaps there's a newer model coming out in the future.
This was also my first trial Eluktronics purchase. Everything went smoothly and delivered as expected. No hassles, and copious email notifications, which was great.
Keyboard
While awaiting a replacement keyboard for my laptop, I ordered a mechanical keyboard. The Mechanical keyboard works fine. Hopefully, a replacement keyboard for the laptop will be forthcoming.

Works as expected. It's worth it to get a good keyboard. The con is that it doesn't make me type better. If it did that, 10 stars!
Review after 1 Month - Great!
I am surprised on how much I like this keyboard, I will not hold this against the keyboard, but if I could have my way, I wish the rear legs would be longer to provide more angle to the board. Otherwise, It works great.
A Very Robust Mechanical Keyboard for a Very Reasonable Price
Been using Eluktronics' MECH-KB for over four months now, and am very satisfied with this product. The metal construction is robust and the keys are comfortable to operate. I have found the intensity of the RGB lighting to be plenty adequate even in fairly brightly lighted rooms (unlike how another reviewer posted). Most appreciated is the price point, which is much more reasonable than other competitors. Would definitely recommend this keyboard to other buyers.

Amazing keyboard and love using while during business or gaming. I would recommend to a friend for the quality Eluktronics put into their products!
Nice key feel but so dim you can't read the keys
I was very pleased about the way the keys on this keyboard felt, but quickly became disappointed with how dim the LEDs under the keys were. With the brightness set to the highest setting and a static white under the keys, the glow from my monitor was enough to overwhelm the keys making it near impossible to read the letters rendering this keyboard useless.
My frustration was further compounded when I found, the keyboard could not remember my customization settings after unplugging and plugging in the keyboard.
I had written for assistance with the dim settings but after several days with no response. I am giving this keyboard to charity since it's not worth keeping even as a spare.
Very Nice
Using mechanical keyboard for the first time and loved it. The colors are so great. The only thing I didn't knew about mechanical keyboard is the noise. But you can't get a silent mechanical keyboard. Even with the noise, I love to use it
Enjoyed it so much, I decided to get one for work.
I was rather surprised at the price, as everywhere I looked, any low profile, but high quality and reliable keyboards were on the more expensive side-over $100 usually for what I was looking for, since low profile keyboards are rarely below $90 bucks.
The keys themselves are a joy to type on. Has a very smooth and light surface. The keys sit into a beautifully finished dark alloy metal, which makes this keyboard an unexpected round-table discussion with anyone who observed it, as it looks like something out of star-trek since the low profile of this keyboard, from far away - makes it look like the keys are floating on top of a changing rainbow (I have the vortex RGB lighting scheme as my personal favorite) with the RGB appearing from far away as if I am typing on floating keys over a rainbow, lol, thanks to the very bright and unbelievably smooth transitions that makes it look even more high quality as the RGB transitions are well-timed. It is quite astonishing-again as to how it's so cheap. This keyboard, based on the quality of the double shot key material itself usually costs upwards of close to hundreds to above one hundred dollars or more. Razor by itself charges a crazy amount of money for their keyboard that looks similar to this. Trust me, I've been testing and then "returning" a few keyboards in my search, then I thought of this company, and I am hooked.
My 2nd one was ordered yesterday- which will be used for work. My original purchase was with Brown Switches, but for work, I will need less tactile keys, and also I know linear reds (what I ordered) are lighter to engage.
This is making me look at other products this company has to offer since I am pretty much sold on the quality offered.
If you all want quality, without compromise, and at a price that doesn't even make sense (no, really), then get these why there are still $49 because if you even want close to this quality, you will be paying over $100, period.
Great Looking Keyboard
I have the Mech-15 RTX gunmetal and the keyboard matches perfectly. Mechanical is always the way to go!
