KC 200 MX, Mechanical Office Keyboard with Anodised Metal Plate, German Layout (QWERTZ), Wired, MX2A BROWN SWITCHES, Silver/White

It can initially feel rather basic, but it's well put together and reliable. Typing is pleasant and quiet. It's a great keyboard!

Until I bought this I didn't understand the hype about mechanical keyboards and thought they were only for hard-core gamers. When my membrane keyboard began to be unreliable, I ventured to buy this, having heard that Cherry had a good reputation. I was not disappointed, the positive response of the keyboard entices one to work, and has considerably speeded up my typing. The keyboard has a reassuringly solid feel and the metal base looks good. I am very pleased with the caps lock light, it's bright and on the ke,y so you instantly spot when you've accidentally activated it. The function keys are just tha,t but a free download enables you to assign whatever actions you need to them. So no problems. Not cheap, but in my opinion, value for money.

The keys are an absolute dream to type on. Lovely sound, not too loud, just a satisfying 'thock' that won't drive you mad! My typing speed has definitely increased. My last keyboard was a cheapo plasticy mechanical board that did well, but would not be anywhere near the quality of this board. Absolutely worth every penny. Looks gorgeous too! Lighting is tasteful, ie. No flashing rgb, just a num pad & caps lock indicator. High quality feel all around. Solid.

I've been using the Cherry KC 200 MX for a bit, with the brown switches, and it's an interesting keyboard and feels very natural to type on. It's full-sized, with a full function row, a navigation block, and four extra media keys including volume controls and a calculator. It's a slim design with a plastic chassis and an aluminum top plate. The bronze and black go together very well. The keycaps are plastic, with a subtle texture and a gentle curve on the face that feels pretty natural to type on. However, they don't feel very substantial and the edges are a little sharp, both around the face of the keycap and underneath. Typing on it is very nice and an improvement over the previous keyboards I've had, which were membrane and a linear mechanical. The brown switches have an initial resistance, until they give in, so it feels quite tactile. But instead of a smooth travel all the way down, they feel like they have stages—once you pass the bump, it registers, but the resistance continues until it finally gives out half way, where they bottom out against the chassis with a sort of dull clack. It's not a linear experience, as expected, but I was suprised at the many stages of it. I also would not call this a particulary quiet keyboard if you press your keys all the way down. The vast majority of the keys felt nice, tactile and consistent. However, there were a small few that felt a little more stiff and overly dampened. When I popped off the keycap, I found an excessive amount of lubrication that had leaked out onto the chassis. After cleaning it up, it felt more in line with the other keys, but it's still not perfect. The layout is also compact for a full-size keyboard. The function keys, arrow keys, and numpad are all packed in tightly with almost no space between them. It definitely takes some getting used to, but at least it saves a little desk space which is something I very much needed. The cable is pretty stiff and will take some time to straighten out. Not a huge deal, but it makes routing it a little annoying and it looks quite ugly. It's a unique keyboard that's comfortable to type on, and the wedge shaped angle of the chassis (which can be further adjusted using the legs) feels natural, pairs nicely with my wrist rest and general posture. I wouldn't say it's perfect, but it does the job—calculator key and all.

Recently ordered this keyboard, as I use it for work as well as for gaming. Needed a good looking quality keyboard that allows for multiple keys to be registered (Anti-Ghosting/NKRO). I bought it with the Cherry Red silent keys as they have a shorter travel and this means you can type/press faster. Haven't had a Cherry Keyboard in years, but the quality is there. I have had much more expensive keyboards from Logitech, Corsair and others. This tops most of them, unfortunately, with many brands you pay for the name that also only care about profit margins over quality. This is very well and sturdily built, the keys feel nice to type on and that metal bronze plate looks really classy.

Fantastic keyboard and ideal for those who use a computer keyboard regularly and want the best tactile feel and to just enjoy the feeling of typing. It inspires me to write, when I don't always feel like writing. Aesthetically very appealing as well [I love the exposed look highlighting the engineering that this keyboard is really all about]. There is a downside to report though. Once you've used this, you will find yourself from time to time having to use other keyboards. And they aren't as nice....

Lovely keyboard but something has happened to the keycaps. I have only had it for 8 days so not wear and tear. Not sure if you can get replacement keycaps, but it makes the board look old and shabby too soon :-)

Lovely feeling keyboard. I'd only used cheapo keyboards for many years and after the latest one gave up I made the decision to upgrade to a mechanical keyboard. I knew Cherry had been around for many many years and the keyboard looked great. I can say that it was well worth the money. I love the tappity tap sound of the switches and the feedback is positive and accurate. Not particularly loud but certainly audible to anyone in a small room. If you're looking for a non cordless mechanical keyboard that looks grown up and isn't flashy for gamers then you won't be disappointed.

nice keyboard. Recommanded

franchement top. il reste bien calé à sa place grâce à son poids et ses patins, le fait qu'il soit filaire est pour moi un plus, la plaque aluminium est du plus bel effet, elle permet par ailleurs d'éviter l'encrassement et facilite le nettoyage. bel objet qui s'annonce increvable.

Bij het eerste uitpakken en eerste gebruik viel me op dat de toetsen weliswaar prima aanvoelden maar het leek wel erg "linear". Wat bleek? Ik had de BROWN besteld maar de RED gekregen. Verkeerde informatie in de titel, die niet overeenkomt met de beschrijving. Helaas retour, want linears heb ik voldoende... Overigens: goede constructie, ietwat licht naar mijn smaak, rubber voetjes mogen wat meer grip hebben en kabel liever afneembaar. LED-indicatie in de CAPS LOCK en NUM LOCK heel handig. Prijs/kwaliteit prima.

Feels good and looks good.

Die Tastatur ist perfekt für das Homeoffice geeignet, vor allem für alle, die eine mechanische Tastatur möchten, aber keine lauten Klickgeräusche wollen. Die Cherry-MX-Switches fühlen sich sehr hochwertig an, haben einen klaren Druckpunkt und sind gleichzeitig angenehm leise, sodass man problemlos mehrere Stunden am Stück arbeiten kann, ohne sich selbst oder andere zu stören. Die Verarbeitung ist typisch Cherry: sehr solide, nichts klappert und alles wirkt langlebig. Auch bei längerem Tippen bleibt das Tippgefühl konstant und präzise, was gerade beim Schreiben oder Programmieren ein großer Pluspunkt ist. Das schlichte Design ohne RGB oder unnötige Spielereien passt ideal ins Büro oder Homeoffice. Insgesamt eine sehr zuverlässige, hochwertige mechanische Tastatur für produktives Arbeiten. Wer Wert auf Qualität, Komfort und ein leises Tippgefühl legt, macht hier absolut nichts falsch.
