I made extensive search for days over a best budgeted and value for the money Mechanical Keyboard. It ended up with me deciding and buying Redragon K552. I wanted something to encourage my 8 years old son to start playing his favorite video games on PC rather than console. Shipment arrived, package unsealed and WOW!!! from the first grab , the weight and solid feeling of the keyboard drew a big smile on my face personally with a sigh of relief that my money invested in the right place. Hooked it up and WOW !!! again, the RGB , the backlight brightness, breathing speed, backlighting direction , how easy was it for my son to adjust however he wanted and the sound of Keycap being hit hard by him, made him not to play the console again since delivered Mid December 2019. Big recommendation here.

I received this keyboard in a colorful sealed package. I love it. It is so beautiful in RGB color with backlit color keys. This keyboard is the most popular and has been reviewed on YouTube. I got it at a discounted price. I highly recommend this Mechanical keyboard for beginners

Initially I was planning to return this item because I already have another keyboard and my wife didn't want to buy something which is already existing. But once I received the product, man I am in love with it. The aesthetic and typewriter feeling of it. And lot of backlight options. Compatible with my MacBook also. Go for it. Price is also fair for 99 bucks!

This keyboard feels better than any of the others that I have used, it has the most satisfying sound of any keyboard I know of and the pressure needed to trigger the switches is perfect. The RGB perkey lighting is better than any keyboard in its price and is easily programmable, It has definitely improved my gaming experience and I would recommend it to anyone looking to find a good quality gaming keyboard at a good price.

I am using this item now to write, the keyboard is perfect but it's an economic version and miss some futures like customize lighting and Games mode light those in premium version but it is still good compeer price

I had been contently using basic keyboards for years at work and home, without a second thought. Then, a few weeks ago, a colleague introduced me to the world of mechanical keyboards. At first I thought it was a little bit stupid that this was even a thing to be excited about. But immediately after talking to that person, I knew I needed to have one. This is why Prime exists - It was a purchase that couldn't wait. I always liked the feeling of those old school IBM keyboards. I'm not much of a gamer, but I do use a keyboard all day long for work - programming, writing documents, endlessly revising wording in controversial emails, etc - so why not invest in a keyboard that makes me a little happier during that time? I chose this keyboard because it had the clicky blue switches, looked solid, had nice RGB, was tenkeyless, and had an overall good reputation. I was not disappointed when I received it. It feels very satisfying to type on. The tenkeyless form factor is perfect for me - I had never used num pads, but would find it frustrating not to have dedicated arrows, function keys, and Insert / Home / etc they way they are here. With the RGB, I find myself sticking to the mode where all keys are one static color. The flashy effects are distracting to me, but might be inspiring to some folks. The typing angle is comfortable with or without the legs extended, but the keyboard slides around the table a bit without them. There was another very similar Redragon keyboard (Visnu) that I was also considering. I went with the Kumura because it has a more compact form factor. Now that I've been sucked into the mechanical keyboard world, here's what I think I would change. (Many other reviewers have already mentioned all of these things). The keyboard has a little bit too much of a "gamer" look to it, partly due to the font of the keycaps. It sounds like PBT keycaps have a nicer feel to them than the stock ABS ones anyway, so I would consider swapping to a custom set at some point. The raised Redragon logo is also a little bit too "gamer" looking too - I noticed that some other Redragon keyboards have a more subtle logo. A detachable cable, and maybe Bluetooth, would be nice too. I enjoy the clicky switches a lot, but am curious to try tactile but non-clicky switches which are apparently a little less obnoxious in an office environment. (Like many folks, I have been working from home during COVID). Maybe I would go with a white keyboard too. Overall, I think the Kumura succeeds in being a very nice entry into mechanical keyboards. It was under $40 when I purchased it. In retrospect, I would also have considered something like the Ajazz K870T, which is about $60 but has the features left on my wish list. But then again, $60 sounded like it was out of my price range at that point. UPDATE Here's an update after three years. This keyboard is still my daily driver, and I have modded it a bit. - Rubbed out the logo on the front of the keyboard with an eraser. - After about year one, I swapped out the stock keycaps for a set of Matcha PBT dye subs with ZDA profile (ASIN: B08QJGH5VT). These were about $38. - About 1.5 years later, I swapped out the clicky blue switches for Akko Jelly Blacks (ASIN: B09K7QX9QK). These are linear with a bit of resistance, and are compatible with the Outemu sockets in the board. It costed about $34 for two boxes of switches. - I lubed the switches and stabilizers with the lube from this kit (ASIN: B09YLLVGX4). - I added a slab of mass-loaded vinyl to the case to dampen some of the case noise. This also makes the keyboard much heavier, which I prefer. A 12" x 12" square of MLV costed about $10. I have enjoyed tinkering with the keyboard and trying various mods suggested on YouTube. One particular channel that inspired me is Consumer Tech Review. The look, sound, and feel has changed substantially from the stock setup. Especially with the clicky actuation gone, most of the sound comes from keys bottoming out and feel comes from the anticipation of them bottoming out from when they are pressed. The Matcha keycaps completely change the vibe from "gamery" to "retro" / "enthusiast". The RGB doesn't shine through these, but it does show up in the gaps between keys which is good enough for me. It's kind of stupid, but the sensory experience of the keyboard makes working just a little bit more pleasurable, and it's been interesting to vary the experience through the customizations. The budget TKL market seems competitive now, but I like this one because the case is solid and the PCB has been reliable. More recent keyboards include things like gaskets to improve the feel and layers of foam to improve the sound. I'm curious to see what kind of differences those things make in person, but I am also trying to avoid blowing too much money on this stuff. The main thing on my wish list would be a detachable USB cable. It appears possible to do that by soldering and making some alterations to the case, so that's an option.

RGB effects are quite impressive and the keystroke sound is quite prominent and it does sound more like the old school keyboards. I like that. Pressure for key press is slightly more than some of the more expensive models but honestly, I'm a heavy typer so it works well for me plus the difference to me is marginal. The USB connection tip is really good quality. And lastly, this keyboard itself is very well build. In fact you could compare it to other more premium build ones. That's probably the most impressive bit.

Bought it on Amazon and it got delivered in 3 days, I initially encountered a problem with my keyboard as a row of keys from caps,a,s,d,f... was non-responsive. Got a replacement in a week, pretty happy with the experience. New keyboard works fine. Now, onto the keyboard itself. The RGB lighting on this board is nothing short of spectacular, especially when you consider the price point. It's very customizable and you can easily switch on the go. The lighting is crisp and the font actually looks better in person than i thought. The key switches are pretty good, although I noticed that typing on larger keys isn't as smooth as on smaller ones. But given the affordability of this keyboard, it's honestly the best mechanical option available in its class. Keyboard is heavy and pretty sturdy. What sets the Redragon Kumara apart is its full customizability. There's a plethora of compatible switches and keycaps on the market, and you can find numerous helpful modding tutorials on YouTube. This makes it an ideal choice for beginners looking to dive into the world of keyboard modding. In conclusion, after a slight hiccup, my experience with the Redragon Kumara mechanical RGB keyboard from Amazon has been overwhelmingly positive. Its impressive RGB, decent keys, and modding potential make it a standout choice in the budget mechanical keyboard category.

Great gift
