Photos Disclaimer
We use photos of our products in hand when possible to show how they look in realistic situations. Sometimes the product might look different within the same listing- this is generally caused by different lighting conditions. When possible, we try to use different lighting conditions to show what the product might look like in different scenarios.
Quality Disclaimer
The is a board aimed to stay within a budget, and maintain affordability. It's fully aluminum and anodized beautifully, but to achieve this price point, the quality bar is lower than some of our more "premium line" boards, such as the Satisfaction75 and Chimera65. Customers have been happy with the quality of the Brutal-line boards, but we like to communicate this prior to purchase.
In general, large defects to visible faces will make a board B stock. But minor issues, small issues that are only visible in just the right angle of lighting, or small dents or blemishes on the bottom of the case that are not visible when the keyboard is fully built and on the desk will not cause a B stock evaluation.
Keyboard cases that ship with keyboards are meant to protect keyboards during shipping. These keyboard cases are made to order to fit the keyboard precisely, and are limited in quantity. As such, we do not replace keyboard cases if the keyboard case arrives damaged. Ideally, no keyboard carrying case arrives damaged, but at times, couriers are rough with packages and damages can occur. In these instances, we offer customers a $5 coupon off their next order as compensation.

You should definitely pick one up today.
I got this board during the Black Friday sale for $150. At that price I think it is great. The mounting is a bit outdated and there are a lot of nice aluminum kb's out there now under $200. I can say it my favorite board next to my GMMK Pro and a Neo 80. No fault of Cannon Keys but I got a set GMK Redline keycaps to go on it not realizing I needed a numpad set which are out of stock everywhere. Upas please find me a set.
Everything about this product is impressive—its sound, feel, and appearance are exceptional. However, I found the instructions to be somewhat unclear in certain areas, which was a bit frustrating as a first-time keyboard builder. They could definitely be more detailed to better guide beginners through the process.
That said, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase overall. The end result exceeded my expectations, and I was able to type at 105 WPM right away, which is unusual for me with a new keyboard. It truly feels like I'm typing on gold!
While I'd give it 5 stars, I believe a 4.5-star rating would be more accurate due to the instructional shortcomings. Overall, though, it's a fantastic product, and I'm very happy with it!
Perfect execution and had a blast building it. Great first board.
Amazing board, feels great, heavy, and 1800 size. Also engraving was awesome.
