This keyboard is just absolutely perfect and many of the features of the keyboard just make it so much more worth it. I use my computer very often, if not daily, so I have spent many many months with this keyboard and can just go on and on about how GOOD it is for $50 when I purchased it. The metal on this give such a premium feel and weight when you grab it, and the blue LED contrast just make it look so much cooler in my opinion. The keys feel and sound AMAZING. I have fiddled with a lot of other brands (such as Razer, Corsair, Cooler Master) with the same tactile switches and I feel ZERO difference when it comes to this EagleTec keyboard. Absolutely amazing. As for the keys, the actuation force feels very average as most other Cherry MX BLUE switches, the keys feel very light when I press into them and that's something I prefer. The lights illuminate well with the key caps, though my only minor (very minor) issue with the lighting is it doesn't seem super bright when turned up all the way. I also want to mention that when you activate the "breathing" effect on the keyboard, a very faint buzzing noise near the top right side of the keys, but it is only slightly noticeable when the room is dead silent. You don't notice it if you're typing away or have some background noise, but it is there and I just wanted to mention that, nothing major or deal breaking.
PROS:
-Great Price
-Very consistent weight and actuation points
-Plenty of features
-Premium feel and weight
-Key caps look and feel great, and futuristic in my opinion.
-USB cable is very long and comes with a Velcro strap to tie up extra length, never has this disconnected when in use. My computer turns on, and so does my keyboard. Simply no issues
CONS :
-Wish it could have had slightly brighter settings, mostly dimmer options rather than brighter. Still has great illumination though.
-Not a deal breaker, but the very slight buzzing noise when the "breathing" effect is activated, only when the room is dead silent though.
Overall, this is a perfect keyboard and I have a HUGE recommendation for anyone looking to buy a low-cost mechanical keyboard with tactile switches.

ORIGINAL REVIEW (2016):
It is not a quiet keyboard, so if you're looking for something very quiet, you probably shouldn't buy this one. If, however, you are like me and you absolutely love the clickety-clack sounds of the keyboards from days long gone, then this is a great alternative! it feels sturdy, and has good weight to it. I'm convinced that my ex-girlfriend could clock me over the head with this keyboard and only my skull would break. (Guess it's good that she doesn't come visit!)
The LED lighting is very bright! But can be easily adjusted or turned off completely. The "Breathing" effect (LED lights fade off then back to maximum brightness repeatedly) doesn't really seem to serve any other purpose than for aesthetics, but if you like flashy blinky lights then I guess it is pretty neat.
I bought the white/aluminum version. Thus far it is probably the best keyboard I've owned since my first computer back in 1987! (Yep, I'm an old dog!) The keys are sturdy and do not wiggle or move around in any manner other than the way they were intended to move. They seem to be well made, and i do not believe that fading will be much of a problem.
If, however, the key caps do fade or get damaged, they can be easily removed and replaced with pretty much any "Cherry MX compatible" key cap. You can find replacement and customized key caps from various places around the internet. you don't need any special tool to remove them. I've been able to pop them off with just my fingers.
The arrow keys have W, A, S, and D printed on them as well as the arrows, and the W, A, S, and D keys also have arrows printed on them as well as the letters. This can be useful for gamers.
The F and J key, as well as the 5 key on the numeric keypad have small protrusions on them as many keyboards today often do. This will enable touch-typists to set their fingers over their home keys without needing to look at the keyboard.
All in all it is a pretty good keyboard. I loved the old IBM keyboards and for me, this one really brings back the clickety-clack feeling of typing on one of them.
Top reviews from other countries
The keys are really satisfying to click. I can't go back to regular keyboards anymore because it feels so strange to not feel/hear a click when I type. It's pretty loud, which I didn't mind, but just be aware that typing late at night will sound like you are committing war crimes in your room. Other mechanical keyboards I found online were like double the price of this one so I think it's solid quality for the price, though I don't have much more reference for mechanical keyboards to go off of.
It's a good keyboard so far! I would recommend it if you're on a slight budget but want something very noisy with lights. It's a welcome, obnoxious addition to my setup.
P.S: The packaging mine came in was a cardboard box with little to no information and very minor foam protection. My keyboard was fine but depending on your mail carrier, it may be damaged depending on how harsh it is thrown around. Mine arrived 2 days after ordering, at the cost of it being thrown on my doorstep without a knock. But that's my mail carrier. Highly recommend the keyboard!
