2nd mechanical board I've owned and definitely the best. You can tell how well made it is when you hold it. Its got really great programming options. I've had mine for two years now and haven't had any issues. Plan on buying one with blue switches in the future. Support this awesome company, you will not regret it.
NEGATIVE STARS!

Best on the market? Maybe if you're a child that has never had another mech board. Better boards: Filco, Leopold or even Type Heaven in this price range for sure; Happy Hacking and Realforce blow it out of the water. Buy this board if you want the build quality and price of a Ducky without getting a full feature set. It's a poorly engineered toy.
I bought this on a promise from Deck that new keycaps would be out in a few weeks and that I would promptly receive a set. The PBT does feel nice, but the visuals are atrocious. That was 10 months ago, and this hideous thing still sits collecting dust. If keycaps alone could fix it, I would buy a new set elsewhere, but they can't.
I keep a keyboard and mouse plugged into a USB hub for my laptop. The LEDs on this board stay on when unplugged and cannot be dimmed. Every time I reconnect the mode and dimmer settings are reset. Some function LEDs stay on in seemingly random modes. Even when working properly, the placement of translucent portions of most keys are misaligned such that they are only partially lit. The keycap and frame depth allow tons of light bleed, such that kicking back to watch a video means unplugging the wretched thing.
Deck built a crap board and lied to me => I will never do business with them again and hope you don't either. Don't get burned. There are better boards out there for your money.
The best mechanical keyboard on the market. The PBT keycaps are a dream to type on. The switches a smoother than a baby's butt. The best feeling underneath your fingertips. You are guaranteed to truly enjoy typing on this keyboard whether you choose Blue, Brown or Red switches. Truly the last keyboard you would ever want to own.
Keyboard arrived dead and didn't work out the box.
Amazing keyboard. Feels great to type on. Love the feel of the pbt keys. Together with the heft of the keyboard and the brown switches this makes for an incredible typing experience.
Shipping and customer support (had asked a question upfront) were great as well.
