Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The o-rings also soften the noise of the keys a bit, which is nice. They perform as advertised.

These work wonderful with the corsair k70 keyboard with cherry brown switches. I love the changes they made for my corsair k95 platinum keyboard. They are a match made in heaven for that keyswitch and that keyboard.

I can still type 100 wpm with a more delicate touch than the wasd blue o-rings make a difference compared to the reds. They also make for a much more pleasant typing experience as it eliminates the noise and shock of bottoming out keystrokes.

There's now just a hint of squishiness when you gently bottom out your keys. The keys stay a little springy feeling. It honestly makes me want to smash the keys really hard for some reason (in a good way) haha.

Cons

Rubber gaskets barely have any effect in damping the sound. While these do keep my keys from bottoming out they are no better than without for the noise. In the end they both work to dampen the sound of the downstroke.

Quality

My officemate is thrilled as well with the sound reduction

Feels like it makes the keys even faster with the decrease in switch travel

The orings are just right the quality construction with the right flexbounce

Great quality you get what you pay for

Price

The price was just a bit steeper than i wanted but now seems fair compared to what else is out there

Only reason for not 5 stars is the price

Packaging/appearance

Nice packaging so you dont lose extras

Like most people i got these for my blue switch keyboard but i didnt need all of them ive found that putting 2 on every switch ... Read More

Competitiveness

Also if you are buying these for a fullsize mechanical keyboard there are enough of them for all of your stabilizing switches as well

I used these on a steelseries apex m400 keyboard

Not a huuuuge difference but it is quietertip press keys down hard after installation to get them to sit all the way in each key

The people at wasd linked me to a video and when i installed them correctly they worked fine
