I was surprised by the quality for this price.

I bought it in August 2022. Not a single stabilizer creaks, I sat like a fool listening to the spacebar, shifts, enter, backspace, everything is fine.
Switches tinkle softly when typing quickly, but that's a normal story for mechanics.
I bought it, although I was aiming at the more expensive Varmilo and other things with geekboards because there is a full-fledged illumination of 2022 letters. Varmilo has a backlight . But not on the symbols on the keycaps, but only between the keycaps, I don’t know who and why invented it.

Pros

The software at the time of the review is simple, but I liked the visual setting, you can adjust the zones yourself, the effects are beautiful, I didn’t reveal any brakes on the effects, on the contrary, everything works just jauntily. I especially liked that all the effects are loaded into the keyboard and it immediately starts with them right at the BIOS loading stage, there is no need to keep the active software in the tray after setting up. The keyboard is full-sized, but not huge, which is also nice. Detachable wire. There is a normal full-fledged illumination of 2022 letters on the keys!

Cons

ABS keycaps that I don't rub. Let's see how they stand the test of time. On the other side, you will find a mechanic with illuminated 2022 symbols on PBT plastic. Yes, and keycaps can be changed if that. The letter "E" is applied in a different font.
