I couldn't be happier with this board. It's solid, has a good weight, and a smooth finish that seems very durable so far. The hotswap is a nice feature as well. I can solder, but it's a bonus not having to. I know the stabs are garbage, but if you're buying a barebones board, who cares. Just buy better stabs.

Much More than expected
I already have low profile ALT, but this High prof is much much much better than low. I like this heavy weight. Actually It's lighter than other expensive alu keyboard including brass weight, but it look good and competitive. I bought a black one and I am now thinking about buying gray more. I really recommend this High profile, Don’t waste your money on Low profile. p.s. Do not waste time to use the stock stabilizers. throw it away.

Heavy but really good quality
Insane sound quality for the price. The board is on the heavier side, but that ensures the board doesn't slide across your desk

Great Prebuilt Board
As far as prebuilt boards go, the overall quality is very nice. The lighting looks really good. The only aspect definetely lacking are the stabs, which can easy be replaced with better quality ones.

Great product for beginner
This keyboard barebone is good for the price, it's heavy and also feels nice. Paying a decent price for premium quality is amazing. Down side is the stabilizers, you might have to get extra lube or swap it entirely but besides that it's good.

Great build quality, poor stabs
just like every other comment is saying the stabs are not that good, but everything else is nice. build quality is solid, heavy board, wont slide anywhere and with right switches/mods it can be a very good board.

A good start
Nice looking keyboard! Stabilizers aren't screw in but plate mounted so can be a bit tough to work with but overall good keyboard

Great starter keyboard but it really needs new stabs
The keyboard can sound a little hallow so it best to tape mod or to put foam in. It also really needs new stabilizers because it adds so much unneeded noise but it really is quality. It has RGB which is a huge plus and with those changes this is a really quality board.

Much better than expected
Great aluminum QMK keyboard that is always in stock. I've replaced the stabs with modded Everglide Panda V3, installed lubed Glorious Panda switches and MT3 keycaps set. Very happy with the result.

Yet another ALT in my collection.
Requires some dumping - no other complaints. Lately I started using USB bypass more with my ALTs/ALTHPs - definitely an advantage over my other keyboards. Hope some day DROP will make BT version.
