I do love this keyboard. At first, the feeling is exotic due to a subtle scratchy feel. It wears away leaving disappointment, however. Still, the keyboard performs well with an interesting light switch with smooth and quality dome feeling. The input latency I hear is very low - so it's suitable for gaming apart from one comfort characteristic. The keyboard performs much better for me with a negative tilt/incline, as the keyboard just feels so awkwardly shaped laying flat. The last things I would consider is if the silenced Topre switches are less my style than the supposed thockier unsilenced switches, and the sharp edges of the keycaps. I did have a bout where the keycaps just felt way too sharp, but I'm surprised to say that the cause was more of a nutritional imbalance.
This keyboard is awesome. the Topre key switches are great (super smooth with a tactile bump) and the PBT key caps feel so much better than my previous mechanical keyboard key caps. My only minor complaints are that there are no media controls and no way to route the cable through the center of the keyboard (only on the right or left). Neither of these gripes are enough to deduct a star.
I just got this keyboard. I've been a RealForce HiProfile user for months and I still love the 30g version. It's soft so that type becomes a smooth pleasure. The silencing makes it possible to use in office (an office luxury of course).

I received this keyboard today (01/05/2016) and I could not be happier! I was a little worried that the 30g weighting might be a bit too light, but I really like it! The keycaps feel great, as they have a lightly textured surface just like other Realforce boards. The silencing is really nice as well. Highly recommended!
