Do not buy Das keyboards

You will fall absolutely in love with them and they will have hooked you into being a lifetime customer. It's all about control. *adjusts foil hat*

Too late. You will pry my Das keyboard out of my cold, dead hands. :)

I'm biting my lip and sitting on my hands. I bought a keyboard, I hate about a year ago and it was expensive, not as much as the das but enough I can't justify buying another...damn...damn...damn.

I like mine as well. My only criticism is the Num Lock LED is seriously bright: when I turn the PC on in the morning it still glares in my eyes every damn time.

Got mine about 9 or 10 years ago and keeps working like a charm. Too bad they don't have a "lease" program where you could return the old one and get a newer model. Mine is a very sober Model S and I so wish one of the newer more colorful models.

Buy the Das, and sell the other one on craigslist.

I need to get an ebay account set up to sell some of the spare equipment I have. But right now I'm just too busy. I've got a couple of outside projects I've got to get done before the really hot weather gets here.

I remember a while ago, you recommending them and I actually had followed their store on Amazon after your mention. I love mechanical keyboards, too. What is the exact make and model that you recommend? I have two keyboards (home and work) that need to get replaced here soon. Thanks.

I like my Das 5QS YMMV, but it's lovely. It's lit, but it's controllable, and the lighting is minimalistic and pleasant rather than overbearing.

i wish i did not require ergonomic so that i could enjoy something like the DAS you do not recommend . one of my many fantasies is to design/build/assemble my own ideal keyboard . it does not seem a difficult project for one of even moderate mechanical/electrical/software education .

Das did not have a keyboard that met my requirements. Wired keyboard. I bought this one: Perixx PERIBOARD-220H US Single USB cable from keyboard to computer. 2 side mounted USB ports on keyboard for regular mouse and 3DConnexion mouse. I tried: Das Keyboard Model S Professional Wired Mechanical Keyboard, Cherry MX Brown Mechanical Switches, 2-Port USB Hub It required 2 ports on computer. Did not work properly with both mouse and keyboard. Maybe I misunderstood when I bought it, but had to return it.

I work from home. I have one keyboard and a USB KVM switch. :)

Care to share the details? I have a Chromebox and a Linux Mint box. Each has their own KB & mouse with each computer having one USB dongle to drive the KB & mouse. I’d love to share one KB & mouse but prefer wireless for everything (I freakin hate cables).

i also utilize a Perixx in particular 512 it is ergonomic . only occasionally does it present a pleasurable clicky feel . often the keys stick if not hit precisely . but overall i can not complain especially for the price . i am surprised those who utilize a traditional non-ergonomic keyboard do not insist on clicky keys .

MY Perixx is standard layout not like 512. I prefer the traditional layout after so many years using them. As for clicky keys, I would not characterize mine as clicky. It does click but not so much. For the price, it does the job and I am happy with it. I like using 3D mouse and standard mouse at the same time when doing CAD. Does require practice.

My Das 5QS requires one port.

DasKeyboard is often hailed as one of the best keyboards around - why I have bought 3: 2xPro4 and 1x4Q. And - what a disappointment! The USB-wires on all 3(!) have had defects out of the box. The built-in USB hub on 2 of the 3 keyboards are disconnecting and reconnecting accompanied with the Windows "disconnect" and "connect" sounds even with nothing attached. Compared to Ducky or Topre my 3 DasKeyboards have been a major disappointment. Nice keyboards with great features. Very bad quality control. Cannot recommend - and a no-buy from me.

You're the first person I've heard of with issues like that, and I know several Das owners. Sorry you had that experience.
