SOOTOP Steampunk Typewriter Keycaps Pudding Keycap Set Typewriter Caps for Backlit Mechanical Keyboard Round Key Cap 104 Keys with Keycap Puller (Black)

i salvaged a razer blackwidow tenkeyless v3 whose keycaps were mostly gone. got this complete set of these keycaps with the removal tool. they were fun to install and fit almost perfectly. the keyboard itself has the lower right keys too close together so the function key had to be flipped 90° and still gets a little stuck against its neighbor. so i removed it. the spacebar key itself is wonky, because it sits on one tappy nub. since the keyboard was already broken, maybe it's missing a wire or stability pegs. still trying to figure out how to make it work best. you have to hit the key dead center to work but who does that (: tell you what, tho, the light bounces off the chrome beautifully. especially with the chroma software and light effects. couldn't even see my last keys, but these glow and shine. even if i get a new keyboard, these will be awesome on it. UPDATE: so excited! the spacebar fit when i shifted it over a key. i remapped the Right Ait to also be Space (you'll see i had to re-map the Menu to be my Esc key, and it fits perfectly in its new home. Noice! side note:, they pop off once in a great while, but it's because i'm a sloppy typist.

Please be aware of your keyboard size before buying. They "fit" my K95 with an ugly workaround, but I love the look and feel of these keys so I'll deal with it. This keyset is designed for a slightly smaller board, so I had to modify it for mine. The space bar is ever so slightly smaller than my original one, so I had to cut off the stabilizers on the side, and I put a tiny bit of double sided tape on the keyboard size to help re- stabilize it a bit. It's not perfect, but it works. For what I paid, they're a solid keyset

Great feel, it looks and sounds perfect with the razer blackwidow x tournament keyboard. the up keyboard on mine is broken so ignore that but it sounds perfect, satisfying and everything fit perfect, space bar included. lights bounce off of the chrome parts..looks cyberpunkish, gaming is okay with it but sometimes i glide over the key i need in tense situations since they blend well as im new to them. absolutely great nostalgia for typing if you grew up with a typewriter on this keyboard imo.

I'll start off with the positives and then I'll get into the 'meat and potatoes' of this review. First, these keys look very cool on my keyboard. I have a Corsair Strafe MK2 RGB keyboard. Although the keyboard is sold at Walmart, it is still a Corsair and VERY high quality with Cherry Red MX switches. Second, I'm typing this review on the new/retro keys and they are very comfortable and feel very sturdy on the keys as I type. Third, they really accentuate the RGB lighting on the keyboard because MOST of the switches are a hair smaller than the square keys that came with the keyboard so more of the switch is showing and the lights reflect off the sides of the keys where it is "chromed." With all that being said....there are some problems and they are quite significant. The first and most major problem is that the spacebar won't fit on my keyboard. As you can see in the picture, the 't' or cross notches that are on the bottom of the spacebars that the switches slide into don't line up. There's no way around this. I had no choice but to use the spacebar that came with the keyboard. I could probably shave the plastic down a little bit on the retro spacebar but I fear that if i do that then the key will be wobbly and won't work well when typing. Next, the keys came with an extra shift key (which I suppose is standard if you have a shift key with only one 't'/cross notch on the bottom of your shift key). It does come with 2 other shift keys which have the standard three 't's' on most mechanical keyboards. Third, my keyboard has 2 'Windows' keys on it....the retro keys only come with one Windows keycap....WTF?!?!? You'll see in my pictures that only one Windows key is installed. To combat this, I left the tactical W-A-S-D keycaps on my keyboard and used the retro W keycap for the second Windows key. Fourth, there are spacing issues between the Windows keys and the adjacent keys (see my pictures for details). The keys slightly rub the Alt key and the Menu key which are next to the Windows keys. This doesn't cause both the keys to keypress but I wonder if over the long-term if it will wear out my Alt and Menu keys (albeit I don't use those keys that often). Lastly, as noted in other reviews, the retro keys are more difficult to remove but it's not that bad. You shouldn't be removing your keycaps that often anyway so it's not a huge issue. Overall...I've had my eyes on these keycaps for months. I have put them in my cart and removed them from my cart numerous times but finally pulled the trigger and bought them. If you really want a keyboard with that retro typewriter look, I recommend just spending another $20-30 and buying one of the mechanical keyboards that is made with them. However I am not going to return these keycaps because...I mean...they look cool and there's really no other alternatives on the market. They are comfortable to type with and feel sturdy on the switch. However I could only give them 3 out of 5 stars due to the issues with some of the keys and the spacing on the windows keys. The spacebar is the biggest issue that I have. It seems this could be easily combatted if they sent a couple spacebars with varying cross notches on the back or had the notches on the keycap slide so they could be adjusted to fit your specific keyboard's spacebar. As for the lack of a 2nd Windows key, this is easy to fix.....SEND 2 WINDOWS KEYCAPS!!! All in all, may the buyer beware. The reviews on these keycaps seem to be very accurate. They look cool and feel good but there are issues which you may encounter when you install them.

I purchased a keyboard that uses this key type. My keys on my original keyboard were losing their metal outer lining quickly. The metal rims were cracking and falling off several keys. I purchased this set to replace just the damaged keys, but these somehow felt more solid and sturdy than the original keys, so just replaced everything on the keyboard. Shortly after I purchased my original keyboard, my boyfriend purchased the same model. Recently, I tried using his keyboard, and found I noticed a huge difference. He has his original keys, and I have the replacements on mine. My keyboard feels sturdier still than his. It's difficult to describe, but the keys feel very firmly attached, whereas his keys feel a little wiggly on each post. Should I ever need to replace, I will get this set of keys again. I don't foresee it being an issue though, since they're all still very sturdy, and I have had no cracking of the metal rims on the keys. My only piece of advice - I laid out the keys in the order on the keyboard prior to replacing the whole set. If I hadn't I would have struggled to know which key went where. I know muscle memory tells you where the letters are on the keyboard, but it can be surprising how easy it is to struggle with knowing keyboard layout when you slow down and have to specifically state which key goes where, especially where the "Ins" "Page Down" etc panel is!
