perfect fit, lovely texture

The caps fit perfect on my switches. They feel very nice because of the wood texture on top of them. I really like typing with these little caps. I use them on my hjkl keys for vim.

Pretty, and nice bit of cheap flare for your keyboard

Easily and cheaply adds nice touch to your keyboard, for a second I thought they would hit the edges of my Keychron K8 but no, they fit perfectly!

The consistency is good enough for 7 of the 8 until you look at them eye level to actually see the difference in heights. Measuring the center-height in mm: 11.01, 11.04, 11.15, 11.22, 11.23, 11.31, 11.52, 12.05. Personally, not bad except for the 12mm one and one of the 11 mm ones that has a deeper recess for the stem. I would not recommend for something like the arrow keys given the sharpness of the edges until you sand them a little--but unless you have a proper jig, I would not recommend trying to fix the edges. For the rarely used keys, I enjoy the aesthetic it adds. I would prefer the finish be smoother, but the texture feels as rough as the pictures convey. Lightly sanding the surface and applying a stain worked out great for me to to make the feel far more tolerable. In the picture, one of them is not stained (the 12mm one) that I tested some sanding on but I concluded I would not be able to shave 0.5mm from it consistently.

Has flaws, underwhelming for the price.

Cons: - The corners are too sharp, which can be painful at times - The keycaps don't hold very good and 2 of them consistently fall on usage - It's way more grainy/un-sand than it looks - The keycap color/textures don't match each other very well - It doesn't feel premium or study for the price I ended up finishing it with resin, and while it looks better; it still doesn't hold very good. That sucks, because I really wanted to like it, the preview images are gorgeous. It could easily be 5/5 if - It would have less of a dry look & a more careful sanding for practical use and "finished" product feel. Edit - Changing it to 1 Star, It's literally un-useable, don't buy it.

Minor size differences

They sit slightly higher than the default key caps that came with the ALT keyboard, which is fine I mainly got these because I want it to be very noticeable to my fingers when I'm on these keys. I did notice, 1 or 2 of mine are very very slightly different size, it's more noticeable once installed but that kind of makes them very unique too? The wood feel and texture is great. If you're very picky about everything fitting exactly right you might not like this

Ehhh.

It's a nice gimmick, but one of the keycaps didn't fit properly on the switch. Pressing down on the key itself has A LOT more resistance than the other keys; it's more of a fit issue than anything else. The keycaps also aren't uniform in the slightest; causing gaps. If you have an LED backlit keyboard prepare for a lot more light leakage suddenly. They also don't feel polished or anything; I feel like if I'm not careful I'll get a splinter. tl;dr: They're "aiite", but they're certainly a niche product. I would avoid purchasing them since they're definitely not worth the money. Look nice as long as you don't press on them.

They are nice-ish.

They look nice, the only reason I was interested was the tabletop my keyboard is on matched the grain of the keycaps well so it tied everything together. The “feel” of them is questionable. Like not quite a “finished” feeling and different than what I expected. Not saying it’s bad, They are okay if you don’t mind the grainy feel of wood. I was very careful putting them on the stems of the switches as I’m not sure I trust the wood not to break but I have had no problems yet. As for sizes, I did not find them to be so off it bothered me, but not “perfect” by any means. If you are looking for precision, probably would not recommend but nice enough in my opinion and I still use them.
