In general, this is a very good keyboard for its price, but obviously there would be some negatives, for example:
-keys are a bit wobbly
-the keyboard as a whole is a bit wobbly but not that bad
-the white background at the back of the keyboard doesnt look the best
But there are also a lot of positives:
-Full RGB for a £50 keyboard
-Its 60% so takes up little space
-Gateron switches which a very good clones of cherry mx
-PBT keycaps
-Switches are swapabble
-You get 2 extra switches
-Key cap puller and switch puller
Not a bad Keyboard! WORTH IT!

Product Description
Hot-Swappable function
Why choose an optical switch?
There are many reasons why optical switches seem to be superior to traditional mechanical switches, including speed, durability, and the ability to extend switch functions.
This DK61 wired mechanical keyboard adopts Gateron optical switches and has hot-swappable function. The function not only provides you with more options for the shaft, but also greatly accelerates the response speed of the key, and at the same time is more durable. It is your best choice for getting started with a mechanical keyboard.
Waterproof Circuit Board
Our keyboard circuit board has passed IPX4 certification, and there is no need to worry about accidental water sprinkling causing damage to the keyboard. Whether it is playing games or working, it is more free and unlimited to use. (Reminder: The interface is not waterproof)

Buying this product, I opted for the silver switches which for some odd reason is no longer an option. The set is very basic and works well as a keyboard as one would expect. I decided to lube switches and stabs (stabilizers) wanting to see how much of a difference it would make and to my surprise it really got me wanting to know more about keyboards. The fact that this keyboard is hotswappable makes everything even easier and more accessible to newcomers like me to get into the hobby.
The set comes with a keycap remover, switch puller, usb-c to usb-a cable, extra switches (which for some reason where brown switches) and the keyboard itself. Out of the box, it's plug and play which is very convenient. However, I do dislike the fact that there is no software for this keyboard. I have also noticed that when playing osu (a rhythm game) my taps aren't actually in time and are all over the place: I've tried plugging the cables into faster usb ports however it is not helping.
With all this in mind, I can recommend this keyboard if you're looking into getting a small profile keyboard, if you are interested in the hobby but don't want to fully commit to a board worth £££s, and if you're using this board with any task that doesn't require you tapping in time with any rhythm like osu.
