Customer Reviews
I was lucky enough to get this set as a mystery keycap set. Aesthetically, it isn't what I would personally choose in a build. I ended up putting it on my extra office build and loving the way they feel to type on. I'd like some empty keycaps to be part of the set, but overall I'm pleased with the product I got for the price.
The legends and feel of the keycaps are amazing for the price. For comparison to Osume keycaps and GMK, these keycaps have a "softer" finish where Osume has a smooth, finish with little texture and the GMK keycap sets have a rougher, grippier texture.
All those keycap sets are great in their own way but I would say Osume and these CannonCaps are a great value in comparison to GMK.
Nice quality and neat packaging
I have these on my daily work board and it's been better than expected. It's a very well-designed and versatile set and the cannoncaps quality is very good.
These keycaps are one of my favorite sets - they look and sound great, and the kitting allows for compatibility with a lot of different boards. My only gripe with the look is that the only option for the caps-lock key is "Rubout," and I would have loved a Control key to have been provided for other layouts. And it's hard to find a 1:1 match for the subtle off-white coloration of these keycaps, so I'm likely stuck getting a red key with white text if I really want to make the change.
Besides that, I found that on some switches (specifically, I was using Dangkeebs' Blue Velvet linears), these keycaps were a bit loose. When reaching out to Cannonkeys, they specified that these caps are only spec'd for OEM Cherry switches, and not other MX-style clone switches. I'm not mad, it happens, but I thought mentioning this in a review might help some other people be aware of this before ordering. I currently have them on a set of MX Blacks and they fit great.
