I also have warped/crooked keys, sent a support ticket.. Hope this gets fixed. :(
for spending nearly $200 on a keyset, im pretty dissappointed in the quality.

sgtmercsYep, seeing that multi-unit key warp in full effect on my icon modifiers. I had only used the colored mods and the ergodox sized caps that were past 1u --- but once I put all the extras onto a fourth board I was a bit saddened by the warping :c

sgtmercsI waited for the second batch on purpose, 'cause I was expecting quality issues on the first batch. But this is far worse than what I anticipated, hope this will get fixed.

TheGwyIt's difficult to estimate how many sets are affected from the people posting here. Buyers come here if there's a problem, but they go to reddit if they're generally happy.

sgtmercsOh damn... apparently SP doesn't changed that much in their QC since the last drop. Granite will be my first custom set, I hope my set won't contain affected keys like these.

sgtmercsThis might be the wrong time and I apologize if it is, but your backslash/pipe key is on upside down.

JebbraYup, that's what those pictures are supposed to be of. Pretty much all of my 1.25 size keys are twisted/crooked.

OliverDKWell that's starting to be worrying because there's still absolutly no one who bragged about their new granite on reddit.

TheGwyNot sure what you mean by bragging but plenty of people have posted their sets. I asked this guy if his rgb mods were off and he told me his caps were perfectly fine. https://m.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/4h02ba/i_too_got_my_dsa_granite_for_my_das/

TheGwyCompared to the sheer number of people ordered Granite, the warping and twisting reports still not that much for now. This is of course due to the number of arrived Granite still low too. I wanna say "don't worry yours maybe perfect" but I still worry for myself..

OliverDKNo he just didn't realize it. The red left Ctrl key is definitely twisted. And the right color mods is still no as tidy is the alphanumerics.

JebbraThat's possible but I'd still say it's difficult to say for sure when these pictures are all you have to go on.
In any case, the original point was that he was happy, and therefore went to Reddit to post his set.
People have different tolerances to variation so there's bound to be some disagreement on which sets are "fine".

OliverDKI completely agree with you, this is totally subjective. As long as the buyer happy no problem will arise :)

sgtmercsMine are like this also. most of the longer keys an not flat at all. As this is my first custom set, I just thought it was normal.

ron310As long as they're symmetrical, it's not really an issue imo. Twisting / asymmetry, however, is a problem.

ron310If it's just not flat googling will help you. I cannot remember the precise link but I'm sure had watched tutorial about flatten a warping PBT keycaps using weights and hair dryer/heatgun. The twisting, however, get its problem on the stem orientation which I have no idea how to fix it at home.
