Based on a positive review of the TECK keyboard (on anandtech), I decided to try this keyboard. Here is my feedback.

1. The mechanical keys on this keyboard are the least mechanical ones I have ever seen. Having worked on various mechanical keyboards, I find it hard to believe that this keyboard has truly mechanical keys. There is just no comparison.

2. For me, the keyboard was DOA – in that the space bar did not work. I thought this would be a simple matter of returning/replacing this item. Was I ever wrong.  This leads me to my main point about this company:

3. This company operates like a scam/ripoff company. They do not have a telephone number that you can call. They do not respond to online queries (you can a message saying – you will hear from someone in 2 days – you never do).
Also, I originally thought this was accidental – but no longer think so. The credit card payment option does not work on their website. Only paying directly (paypal or bank account) works.

There is already a ripoff report (ripoffreport.com) filed by someone who had a similar experience to mine.

When I posted a comment on the anandtech review, highlighting my negative experience, they removed the comment. Curious.  In any case, as the anandtech review points out, this keyboard also has a serious learning curve. I never got that far since my space key did not work – that made it useless for me. I tried remapping the space bar to another key – and worked with that for a while – but even so – the complete lack of the mechanical feel just left me disappointed.
