I ordered a keyboard.io and ended up returning it because it felt so cheap.
A lot of the switches are angled poorly and they key caps are too large for the switches. This results in your finger not pressing the switch straight down or directly in the center. This made every key press need a different amount of force to actuate.
The keycaps were custom made for the layout. They felt like they picked the cheapest possible plastic which resulted in them having a lot of play. But since they were custom there was no hope of replacing them.
The board was also very "hollow" so it the keys just drummed, rattled and echoed about when typing instead of just resounding a punctual click.
Also, the thing is so massive. It takes up sooo much space.
They have their own firmware instead of just leveraging something that already exists like QMK. Which is fine for the most part, but I prefer to have all my keyboards running the same firmware.
TL;DR It's a $400 keyboard that feels worse than a $60 keyboard.
