Cons: - None- Minor: the keyboard is thick but does not come with any wrist/hand rest at the bottom. I have no problem adjusting to that, but YMMV.

Cons: - None so far
Pros: - Braided USB cable- Price- Very sturdy- Rubber feet even on the keyboard kick stands Comment:
This keyboard is pretty awesome, the only thing I have to get used to is the 1" ledge at the edge of the keyboard(could use a small wrist rest attachment), but I knew that before I bought it. |

Cons: - Does NOT with ASUS (AMD 900-chipset) motherboards - confirmed by CM Customer Service - have e-mails to back it up.
Pros: - Aesthetics- Price of a (partially) back-lit mechanical keyboard Comment:
Having done my research I was hoping that I would not be the one stuck with a non-functioning keyboard; well, I was not. The keyboard works on (2) machines I tried it on except the CoolerMaster based system with an ASUS M5A99X Evo motherboard. CoolerMaster's Customer Service confirmed that the keyboards do have issues with ASUS boards. On a postive note, the keyboard did work on a custom build with an ASUS P9X79 PRO mobo and a Toshiba Satellite laptop - both Intel based systems. Sadly not the systems where this keyboard was suppose to go. |

Cons: Larger sized keys such as space and enter makes a slight springing noise after being hit.
Pros: Good Bang for your buck. Mechanical, partial back lit, matte black, and full keyboard. Comment:
I was looking for a mechanical keyboard as I enjoyed playing SC2 on my friends' DAS keyboard. I have a laptop so I couldn't justify spending $130+tax on a mechanical keyboard so I got this keyboard for around $101 taxes included. So far, I have been extremely satisfied with my keyboard. Within the week I got my keyboard I was worked my way from mid platinum to high diamond. I think it gave me GOSU APM.The back lit keys are bright with several modes to adjust to your preference and it looks so GD sexy with the matte black finish. It sits a little higher than I'm used to but I was using a laptop keyboard before. If I had to nitpick I would say that larger keys such as space, enter, shift, etc make a springing noise after you tap it hard. I wear headphones most of the time so it doesn't bother me at all. Aside the from that the brown switches are a dream to type on. I was going to go with the blue but I wanted to be able to play while my gf is sleeping and not have her wake up =PIn conclusion, this keyboard is a GREAT if you're looking for a full mechanical keyboard with sexy backlights and colour scheme without shelling out too much. |

Cons: Keys aren't as good as a higher end keyboard (Das, Filco, etc)
Pros: PriceBrown SwitchesLED Backlit (well some)Non-glossy finish (doesn't get as dirty easily) Comment:
Bought this while it was on promo for 79.99. I must say, this is a fantastic keyboard. I've always been a fan of Cherry MX Brown switches and this is the cheapest I've seen a Brown keyboard. I love the matte finish and the selective LED Backlighting. |

Cons: Not ergonomic enough
Pros: Very quiet, backlit light is very bright, durable, easy to type with Comment:
Overall, I am satisfied with this keyboard. I made the plunge from the Das Professional Ultimate keyboard which had cherry mx blue switches and was way noisy.This is not noisy at all and once you get used to the ergonomics, its a neat and nice keyboard.Don't have any issues with the wobbly stands as some have mentioned. |

Cons: - keyboard sits slightly high, may be awkward for people with small hands- not fully backlit, backlighting only for Esc, F1, F2, F3, F4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Q, W, E, R, A, S, D, F, Z, X, C, space bar, arrow keys and function key + F12 when lockedDoesn't bother me, but might bother others:- branding all over the keyboard- no "gaming" frills like extra macro keys and usb / audio ports
Pros: - sturdy construction- Cherry MX Brown keys- smart, sharp looks, doesn't look like a toy like other mechanical gaming keyboards- NKRO with USB is rare Comment:
I wanted a mechanical keyboard with MX Brown keys, and this was the one I settled on. I tried several of the Razor and Steelseries mechanical keyboards, but they either were too big or used mechanical key types that I didn't like like the much too clicky Blues and excessive force-needed Blacks.The CM Quick Rapid Fire keyboard was nice, especially the removed numpad, but it had no backlighting.The CM Storm Trigger was too big and I didn't want extra macro keys. Plus I use Autohotkey for macro's anyway.So I went with the Quick Fire Pro and so far I'm loving this keyboard. Because of the MX Brown keys used, it's not as loud as other mechanical keyboards. If you're coming from a rubber dome keyboard it may take some getting used to, but once you do, it really is a joy to type and game on this keyboard. Definitely worth the money. |

Cons: Sits higher than most keyboards and may get uncomfortable without a wrist-rest.
Pros: Well-built and sturdyPartial LEDN-rollover functionPractical for typing and gamingCherry MX switchesLight-to-touch keysOffers good grip Comment:
When I saw the hype about the new CM Storm Quickfire Pro Mechanical Keyboard I knew it would be the perfect keyboard for me. I wasn't disappointed. It lacks macro switches, but they're not a necessity for my gaming needs. |
Partial LED lit and not many extra features but for the price it's an awesome affordable brown switch keyboard.Build quality is good, compared to the Razor Blackwidow I have. The BlackWidow wouldn't even sit flat on the desk, a corner is slightly raised.Only thing you need to watch out is the lack of wrist/hand rest. You should try it before you purchase to make sure it is comfortable and ergonomic for you.
