It works, but I don't think I'll be buying it again.

Klava is a really good, affordable option. I have the venerable Steelseries 6Gv2, which is not bad. I am really happy with it and can confidently suggest it to anyone looking for a high-quality, reasonably priced keyboard for programming or gaming.

As a result of the peculiarities of attaching keycaps (there are thin, fragile legs), in the event of a breakdown, it is necessary to change not only the keycap, but also solder the switch (order, wait, etc.). As a result, these fragile legs break off and remain in the switch, and despite all attempts to insert a new keycap, it is no longer possible. Keycap removal is now so simple that some even just fly off the switches.

Simply put, it's not worthwhile. Purchase keyboards that support Cherry MX switches.

Pros

Nothing unnecessary, and the switches are comparable to MX Cherry. Again, I find the design to be quite attractive.

Cons

Expired key cover with WASD removed Cherry MX keycap compatibility issues Features of the keycaps' attachment to the switch make replacement and maintenance impossible.
