Stiff, easily broken, and incredibly cheaply made. This is basically a disposable keyboard.

I would say the keys are fairly quiet. Not loud like the cheap keyboards you find else where. It's a great work or school laptop just kind of big

I would say they're neither light nor heavy. Pretty middle-of-the-road. The clicks are a little on the loud side though.

The keys are really quiet, it will take time to get used to it though since the layout of the keys are not like any other keyboards. I catch myself hitting the \ key when I want to delete a letter, but all in all I like it and am sure others will as well.

Well my favorite keyboard is not this one in all honesty but I can say for the price and value of what it is it IS good and a decent buy. I noticed the the clicking notices when gaming aren't loud which really counts in my house because I play hard when I game and get to pounding at my keyboards pretty hard. I think that one is quiet compared to most. Just remember it is not a mechanical keyboard. Its a good value for the money and I considered it quiet. Hope this helps *smile... happy gaming!

It depends on how loud is loud to you. It doesn't type like a laptop keyboard; it's a slightly more hollow clacking sound than that, but we still find it to be the least annoying of any keyboard we've owned in a long time. It's nothing like the old keyboards that sounded like a muffled gunshot with every stroke. So I'd say it's somewhere in between the two.

It's quiet. The keys are flat and give you a firm tactile feedback as you type. They're not bouncy or clacky like a regular keyboard.

They keys are solid; like typing on a nice laptop. It has worked out great for me.

It is quieter than say a stock Dell keyboard. It more or less has a rather muffled thunk type of sound compared to clicking. I'm a programmer / sys admin and I don't completely touch type, nor do I type 60 wpm. So your mileage may vary.

These are full sized mechanical keys, not Cherry MX. Alot like oldschool keyboards but still nicer quality.I've been very hard on mine and it is holding up like a trooper. Best thing about it is can choose any color for backlight and the volume wheel feels great.

the keys are great, they have a clean smooth click and bounce back with you fingertip....VERY nice key response~!

It's more of a soft click. They have more depth than a laptop keyboard but it's nothing compared to a mechanical keyboard which is what it sounds like you're looking for.

I just tested this keyboard right now. About the loudness of keys, it really depends on how much strength you you put in. If you just lightly And carefully touch a key, it does not make any sound at all in my opinion. But if you hit the keys continuously and very fast, which is what gamers do when chatting, or in a fierce battle, I would say it sounds just as loud as a conventional mechanical keyboard. Therefore, I would not recommend this one to anyone who does a lot of typing, especially gamers, chatters at night.

I have not had any problems. Agree with previous answer about putting pressure on the center of key. With normal non rage use, it will be fine. If you get all crazy and rage slam the keys cause you died in your favorite game... then yea they wilk prolly break. But normal use, they are nice and solid.

The buttons don't seem to 'click' any more or less than other mouses I have laying around. They do seem to have a deeper pitch, though. So, I guess that could be perceived as less loud.

The keyboard is not loud, I would say just a normal click sound, perhaps the same as a laptop.

When I ordered mine, some of the keys clicked and were sticky like that right out of the box. Amazon quickly facilitated shipment of a new one and it has been fine thus far.
