The materials are nice, but the build quality is somewhat lacking for the one I received. The window on mine is not flush with the wood and sticks up in one corner. Kind of annoying, but not a huge deal for a display box. The top half of the box is way taller than it needs to be so it is difficult to get a good viewing angle on all of the key caps, which brings me to my main point: There is no natural position for this box. Laying down flat, you can only see all of the keycaps if you look from directly above the box (due to the tall top half). If you stand it up on its side, a few of your keycaps are going to fall out of the rubber placement mat. I'll probably end up propping this against something or attaching some sort of stand to the back of the box to get a reasonable viewing angle on my desk. Lastly, the rubber placement mat is very difficult to work with because custom keycaps are not uniform in size. I found that all of my keycaps were either slightly too big or slightly too small to fit and would not stay in place. Most pop out or warp the mat by stretching it and cause other keycaps to pop out. The mat has pretty inflexible nodules for holding the keycaps that really need a more thought put into them. If they were taller and more angled, they could grab a variety of keycaps without issue. I will probably end up replacing the mat with a plate of some sort so I can use switches to hold the keycaps in place and bring them closer to the viewing window. Overall, a cool concept but I would only recommend this if you are looking to display a uniform set of keycaps that aren't too large or small, or you plan to modify the box. If you are like me and have a mix of different types of keycaps, you are better off displaying them on a keyboard or macro pad. Design 1/5 Build quality 3/5
