The Classic Pooh keycaps and the accompanying desk mats are beautiful and is true to E. H. Shepard's art style!
Prior to ordering, I was bothered by Drop's claim that their DCD keycaps feature a proprietary PBT material that retains the benefits of traditional PBT without its characteristic texture.
As someone who personally loves the signature texture of PBT keycaps and tends to dislike the slippery, glossy feel of ABS-like keycaps, I'm happy to find that the DCD keycaps strike a nice balance.
While they are indeed smoother than traditional PBT keycaps, they still retain a hint of the texture I like. The keycaps are also thick and produce a satisfying "thock" sound.
I hope there will be another round of keycaps with more characters from the second book so I can fill up my function key row. Classic Pooh themed artisan keycaps would be great, too!
Loved the design of the set, great theme, however, while it may be just my set, the entire asd alpha row (minus f and j) had north facing issues. I had to stuff foam in the stem to fix the plastic-y sound and that seemed to do the trick. Otherwise great product.
The Drop + Bees.Keys DCD Hundred Acres Keycap Set brings a nostalgic and high-quality experience to any keyboard setup. Themed around Winnie the Pooh, it perfectly captures the cozy vibe of the Hundred Acre Wood. Users have praised its thick, durable PBT keycaps with sharp dye-sublimated legends, including delightful novelties like the "Oh Bother" ESC key. Many appreciate the set's unique fonts and watercolor-style modifiers, which add a whimsical touch.
With a sound profile described as deep and full, these caps bring a "thocky" experience that keyboard enthusiasts love. The set is also compatible with international layouts, making it versatile. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for those seeking quality and a bit of childhood nostalgia, offered at a reasonable price for the value.
Glad Disney lost its copyright that allows these keysets to drop. Can’t wait for further collabs like this. very thocky from the thick construction, I honestly prefer dcd for deep sound than the dcx.
Adorable. Great quality. Enjoying my first DCD caps.
Winnie the Pooh has always been near and dear to my heart, so when this keycap set was announced, I knew I had to get my hands on it. Then I saw the Rainy75 in "Red Velvet" and I knew I had to pair the two.
Unbelievably happy with this build. Currently sitting at my (seldom used) home office desk paired with one of the Hundred Acres desk mats. This board may entice me to do more work at home.
My first "DCD" keycaps from Drop and I hope the product run (in particular of the international kit) is a great success. The quality of the keycaps and the dye sub is sublime. In particular impressed of the reverse dye sub on the "Oh Bother" novelty ESC keycap. Really happy about these keycaps from Drop.
