The base of the keyboard is plastic and looks like many glow in the dark plastics I have seen in the past. I am not a fan of this because it does not look very nice when it is not lit up. Once it is lit this colored plastic allows the light to have a nice even glow throughout the base of the keyboard. This keyboard is a membrane keyboard that is meant to feel like a mechanical keyboard. In my opinion the feel of the keys are most like Cherry MX Clear mechanical switches. They have a medium weight and spring back very quickly. They have a similar travel to many other mechanical keyboards I have used. If you are looking for the clicky, tactile feel of blue switches, you will be disappointed. One advantage to the keys being membrane is that they are almost silent. The keyboard software is easy to install and use. It gives you the ability to program each individual key to do exactly what you want. Thanks to the LEDs the keyboard can be back-lit with sevon different colors and can be set to a solid light or pulsing. You also have the option to turn the LEDs off completely.
Overall the keyboard is made very well and feels solid. They membrane switches do a decent job of simulating the feel of mechanical keys. The included one year warranty provides a nice peace of mind. I have a hrad time recommending this keyboard solely because it does not look that great with the LEDs off and for not much more you can purchase a TOMOKO mechanical keyboard that has all the options minus the LEDs, that will perform and feel much better.
