Review: Good keyboard - Good slim keyboard and great to type on. Nice action on the keys. Not too noisy either.
Review: Comfortable to use, I'm typing with it right now! - First of all thanks to desertcart for fulfilling their Prime next day promise and delivering it next day. I used to have an Apple Magic keyboard but sold it and got this one instead. I would say the Apple one is a higher quality keyboard and the key presses are the best I've ever experienced but for £50 more than this keyboard, you'd expect that from high end Apple products. This keyboard still has comfortable soft key presses and low travel like a laptop one. The Apple one had also swapped the " and @ symbols around which was annoying for Windows users, thankfully they are back in their normal places on this keyboard. It's plug and play so Windows 10 installed the drivers as soon as I plugged the USB cable in. Just the "Pause" key isn't working in Spotify or Media Player, I might have to check the Cherry website about that. I have uploaded a photo of the standard UK keyboard layout I received which is slightly different from desertcart's stock photo. First the backslash and pipe key is at the normal position at the right side of the left shift key, this is essential for us programmers and having such a large left shift key would just be bizarre. Second the Return key is full size which you will notice if you compare my photo to desertcart's, this is also better and easier to find when typing. You can also see the hash key is to the left of the Return key, but in desertcart's photo it is on the 3 key instead of pound, not good for UK users. The one in desertcart's stock photo looks like an American layout as there's no £ sign, and with @ on the 2 key and " just to the left of Return where # should be. The LED lights for lock keys are on the individual lock keys which is a nice touch. There are also 7 multimedia keys for media playing, volume, calculator and a useless browser 'home' key which I tested whilst writing my review and lost what I had written before and had to re type this review again from scratch! Avoid that key if working in a browser! Next to that key is a 'windows lock screen' key. I think these 2 keys are pointless and I would have preferred 3 sets of 4 function keys along the top with spaces between the 3 sets, as a programmer I need to find CTRL+F5 easily but it's not too difficult. Overall I am pleased with this keyboard, it is comfortable and easy to use. I wouldn't recommend it for gaming as I don't think the soft keys could handle aggressive gaming sessions for too long. It is ideal for touch typers looking for laptop style keyboards. It's not ergonomic shape like Microsoft's Natural keyboards but I prefer soft keys like this one's.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have stands to angle the keyboard?**
A: Yes it comes with 4 feet which you can stick to the base, you can just use two at the back to angle the keyboard, they're easy to miss hidden under the box where the cable is.

**Q: Is the top plate (facing the user) made of real metal, or plastic coated to look like metal?**
A: It looks like grey coated plastic to me. However, the keyboard structure is very robust and dense, despite being quite thin. It has eight thin rubber feet and all of them grip my desktop perfectly - it is absolutely level with not a trace of warping. 

I think the keyboard is very good value

**Q: Does this keyboard has warranty,  and for how long**
A: This has a 1 year warranty.

**Q: Hi, how long is the USB lead?**
A: 1.8 metres, with a USB-A connector.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing keyboard minus the lack in inclination
*by N***Y on 8 March 2020*

I got this as a replacement for a faulty Cherry Strait 3.0 and I'm very glad I did. So far the typing experience is superb. The soft clicking feel of the keys is amazing and makes you want to type more and more. Especially if you have ever used an Apple keyboard you'll be able to appreciate the quality of the Cherry KC 6000 Slim. If not anything, for the huge difference in price, you cannot buy anything closer than that. Also the look of the silver KC 6000 is almost identical to an Apple keyboard. The full keyboard layout is pleasing, well and properly spaced and the keys are large enough, but not huge, they will allow comfortable typing. The device is heavy enough and includes small rubber pads that prevent it from sliping or moving around even when the keyboard is placed on a glass surface. One feature that is really missing are inclination brackets at the back, so users can have the keyboard more inclined for more comfortable typing. As it stands it is not bad, but if you're used to inclined keyboard, the flatness of the KC 6000 might put you off. The USB cable of the keyboard is about 1.85m in length, so that should cover most needs. I haven't tried it in playing games, but I think that gaming is not what the KC 6000 was made for primarily. Sure it would tackle a bit of games, but there are other keyboards specifically for that. The KC 6000 is more business use and writing orientated. Loving this keyboard, it fed my nostalgia for the good ol' Apple keyboard into a pc environment. I hope the next revision of this keyboard comes with inclination brackets, it would be an absolute must have keyboard then.
