"they are not sturdy. ... Actually, I think I’m on my 5th pair in 2 years and I am a weekend overnight backpacker. ... I’ve had the treads come loose less than 15 miles out of the box. ... Their durability is crap to the point it’s hard to believe a legit company accepts this as their product."
"I had a tendency to lose some outsole chunks in the Rifts, Xodus, and Endorphin Edge. ... The Rifts have 250 miles and it's falling apart with pieces of outsole lugs/treads missing and pieces of midsole chunks gone around the toe bumper and forefoot where the outsole is. ... I'm not sure it'll last to 300 miles before I need to soft retire it to easier trails. ... much less durable"

"Eeros are HORRIBLE for customization. And I say that as an IT guy (you can see my own comment history, and I have a pair of Eero Pros)"
"I also just remembered I have a lot of cameras and bulbs that are exclusively 2.4Ghz. I'm having trouble getting them connected since there is no separation of networks. ... This upgrade may have been a mistake."
"You want to be able to force a band for the backhaul. ... Google was constantly swapping to 2.4ghz as a BH so that alone will gimp your 5ghz fronthaul to 2.4ghz like speeds."

"about two years in the LEDs will randomly start to die (for example: the blue led on one switch will die out). Every K70 I've had has followed this pattern like clockwork."
"Had a couple RGB LED's go out ... Eventually the RGB Led problem got soo bad"
What's the general opinion on corsair refurbs? the K100 @ $100 doesn't seem too bad at first glance. My K70 from 2017 (2016 model) works fine but a few LED's have gone weird. Might be a good upgrade?

I used a Corsair at the demo booth for Deep Rock Galactic, and throwing a flare caused a flare of white light from around that key. Looked so cool.
r/GirlGamers • What's the best gaming keyboard widely preferred by Gamers right now? ->They also had a massive keyboard display, where they had synced them up to display moving images across like, 16 of them. I bet there's somewhere to get presets.
r/GirlGamers • What's the best gaming keyboard widely preferred by Gamers right now? ->:/ No gasket, no foam, no VIA, *no hot swap*. Hard pass.
r/keyboards • What's everyone's thoughts on the Corsair K70 ->I've been using a K70 (not the same one) since 2018. Never had key caps pop off. The biggest thing I notice with these is about two years in the LEDs will randomly start to die (for example: the blue led on one switch will die out). Every K70 I've had has followed this pattern like clockwork.
r/Corsair • just bought this corsair keyboard ->Yeah, dunno. Just an odd thing. Their triangles fail on me constantly also. Those are my two biggest grips with all the Corsair shit I have.
r/Corsair • just bought this corsair keyboard ->This is not a mechanical keyboard if that matters. It has rubber dome switches according to the product page. As for their refurbs in general, they're probably fine. I used a K70 for years and it never had a problem. I still have it tucked away in the closet. But personally, I've moved away from such huge keyboards in order to reclaim some desk space.
r/buildapcsales • [KEYBOARD] Corsair K55 RGB PRO Gaming Keyboard (Revival Series) $19.99 -save $40, 90-Day Warranty, Shipping not free below $79-cart ->My Corsair k70 finally died and I've been wanting to check out the less gamer looking options. I see yunzii is selling "mystery boards" for 40. I assume this won't be a screaming deal per say but if I genuinely don't know what I like is that a terrible deal? I would probably get two and see what I like and don't like, since if you order two they are guaranteed to be different. Is this dumb? Is there an obvious better thing for me to be doing? Edit. Usage would be coding and gaming, Windows desktop and laptop running cinnamon variant of mintOS.
r/MechanicalKeyboards • /r/MechanicalKeyboards Ask ANY Keyboard question, get an answer - September 25, 2025 ->Those MX Brown switches are very very good. You'll have a great experience for sure. I still have the K70 MK2 (MX Red) and more recently got the K70 Pro RGB TKL. Corsair makes awesome hardware.
r/Corsair • just bought this corsair keyboard ->still rocking an old corsair k70 and it's been perfect, it even predates the RGB models and still going strong. just checked i got it in 2014 and it's still running perfectly despite one or two beer / chocolate milk incidents
r/PUBATTLEGROUNDS • mechanical gaming keyboard ->razer keyboard? gl winning the lottery system of whether ur razer keyboard gonna have keys that are double-registering/non-responsive within 1-2 years consider cosair k70 or pile your budget higher for a custom built one to last
r/buildapc • Need Help Finding a Gaming Keyboard ->Thanks, I'm in the same boat, ended up grabbing a Corsair k70 and it's just so loud that I'm going to end up returning it.
r/buildapc • Best keyboard for under $120? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
