Quality and design at a good price
The keycaps come well packaged and also include a keycap remover in case you don’t have one. They are made of PBT doubleshot material, as described, and feature a minimalist design that I personally like. The Cherry profile is comfortable and ergonomic, making the typing experience very pleasant.The set includes keycaps for different keyboard sizes in my case, I have a 75% keyboard, and they fit perfectly. I chose the black and white color combination, and I am very satisfied with it. As for the price, I consider it very good for the quality they offer.However, one thing to keep in mind is that if you have a keyboard with an ISO Spanish layout, this set doesn’t include the corresponding keys, so you would need to look for another option.

These are quality side printed (south facing LED) keycaps
These keycaps are of good quality, with clean shine through letters, consistent feel, and a pleasing color scheme. They also have extra keys for several keyboard configurations and keyboard applications. These factors were interesting to me since I had a south facing LED Keychron 100% keyboard I've been modifying, and I need shine throughs.I do not like these keycaps, at all. They're of great quality, don't get me wrong, I don't like them. I don't like the lower profile (I prefer SA), and I especially don't like the side "printing" because it's hard to see if I need to glance down for a particularly tricky password or strange key combination. With all that said, these do a good job of providing some flair and readability on a south facing LED keyboard with a deeper clack sound on the keyboards I tried them on. If this is the form factor you want, you will be pleased. If, like me, you're trying to find something to go with the south facing LED monstrosity you're putting up with for other build qualities, they may fall short -- but not because they are inferior, only because they may be unsatisfying to your particular preferences.

Very Aesthetic
The key caps look great. They fit any cross steam and are built above average. If you want to customize your keyboard or just want cool looking key-caps that light up the letters these are a good choice. However, make sure I have LED backlit switches or else seeing the logos would be difficult. They are a bit pricey but worth it if you have a good keyboard. Per my pictures one set was enough to change all my key caps for my CIDOO v75 and an accompanying number pad from the same brand.

Good overall quality
The borders could use a bit more polish but for 9.99 cant really complain. Next to my white key caps these look stained like left in the sun. Maybe a more bluish grey would go better with them. Also they are not as see through and bright as others.

Amazing value, doubleshot PBT, Cherry profile keycaps for South facing LED keyboards
I wanted some inexpensive shine through keycaps to go with my inexpensive (but very good) Gamakay SN75. These punch well above their price (when compared to "premium" keycaps). There are no signs of key deformation, the walls are fairly thick and it comes with enough keys for any ANSI 60/65/75/TKL/100% keyboard. Sadly, if you want ISO you'll need a different set of keycaps.Logos are clear and look good with South facing LEDs vis Keychron or the aforementioned Gamakay. You can see the reinforcement rib in some characters, and Cherry profile is short enough that you can potentially see some of the backlight LEDs.The Good:- Price and quality to price ratio.- Texture is smoother than some other PBT keycaps (not as sandy) but not as smooth as ABS.- PBT.The Bad:- Some lettering isn't consistently clear. See the "D" in the first photo.The Meh:- Cherry profile. Depends on how you like this profile.

Okay for the price, but they’re not cut very well
I like the style of these but there are a few issues I have with them.They’re a good value set and sound very good because they’re pretty thick. The color scheme is very loyal to the old off white boards from the 80’s and 90’s.These are built very thick as opposed to other shine through caps but they are not cut well and some keys do scratch eachother quite often and get stuck.These fit is kind of snug and the brightness varies from board to board but ultimately it suffers due to the thickness of the PBT and the grey caps.If you have a bright backlight you’ll love these caps. Just do yourself a favor and file down the edges of the keys if they collide.
