First, I will start off by saying that my main driver is a Logitech G710+ and a G602, so quality is a factor when purchasing products. I purchased this set for a client gaming build, and I was very surprised. Here are the pros and cons for both items Keyboard: Pros: -The keys! They actually feel mechanical, even though they are membrane. They have a sort of tactile feedback without the noise of springs. I would (almost) argue that they have a better feeling then Cherry MX, but are slightly harder to type on. Then again, its practically a 20 dollar keyboard. -The backlighting is bright, but not too bad. All the space under the keys are lit up, as well as the tops of the caps. -Full 10 key layout for maximum usage, but in a slightly compact form factor. -Normal key layout that most people should be familior with. -Dedicated media keys and volume up/down (no mute) Cons: -On or off backlighting, and when off the lettering is near to impossible to see. So basically all black keys. -No software support for macros (knew this before purchasing) -Raised keys, which may feel different at first for people used to using flat keys. (Similar to mechanical keycaps) Mouse: Pros: -Fairly comfortable, palm grip feels good and claw grip is possible (more of a palm mouse though). -Clicky right/left buttons feel normal, nothing exceptional though -Smooth scroll wheel with clicky increments. -DPI switch for on the fly changes in games. -Forward/back keys on the left side. -Rubber grip on the front side for 2 two outside fingers. -Awesome looking lighting down the middle, on the scroll wheel, and even on the front like a car grill. Cons: -Again, no marcos, which is understandable for a 10 dollar mouse. -Not much support for the outside fingers. -Light always stays on. To wrap it up, these are both exceptional products for 30 dollars (I say about 20 for the keyboard, 10 for the mouse). There is nothing else on the market name brand like this for that price. This is also a good entry keyboard for someone who doesn't know if a mechanical keyboard is good for them since it sort of has the correct feel. I can easily recommend this for any gamer with any system, or even for someone who wants a good looking setup. It has a passive aggressive look that is hard to produce, but Cooler Master hit the ball out of the park on this one.
