It looks and feels great the software doesnt work but theres enough built in so whatever under my enter key there was some weird ribbonhair looking thing with some stabilizer lube on it and under my space bar there was a bit of string and my space bar is squeaking in the left stabilizer while my enter key feels as though it wasnt even lubed its a little scratchy
