Greater than one weekFor, what Id call, an entry level set, inexpensive, fairly solid with good feedback on keys and DPI on mouse. Ill give ReDragon props for flashy. This is one flashy keyboard, the solid backlight setting is great, especially gaming in low-light. I still have attempted the changes color with each keystroke but would likely be a strobe effect. Warning: There is no downloadable software, all the settings are manually done at the Keyboard or Mouse. The only reason I cant give it a 5-star. This is why it is a good entry level gaming setup. No macros to program, it would be up to the game to keymap, but macros are out. The DPI setting on the mouse resets each time you shutdown/restart the computer, so you just need to click the DPI selection button. Same goes with the Keyboard, the FN Home, or FN END will change the backlighting. The instructions have a page on which each does. Im not a fan of the no memory aspect of the keyboard and mouse, but the cable length, funcitionality and feel of the keyboard, a well weighted full sized mouse. Oh, cable length is good to longer than expected, I think about 5. The mouse cable is braided. Its really not a bad set, I might get one of ReDragons higher end KB/Mouse over the more common brands out there. Sometimes you just need a flashy keyboard and mouse and dont want to spend a ton on something else that is really only marginally better than this one. :-)

Greater than one weekCool Combo But After 2 months of using it the Spacebar key started to make squicking sound like it got rusted or somthing , other than that the keyboard and mouse are good for gaming , but again , i think its not designed to last more than 1 month.

> 3 dayProduct is awesome. Works fantastically. No issues at all, and functions as its supposed to. My only complaint is how it was shipped. It was sent via USPS and not through Amazon itself, which caused a lot of problems. First, the package was way too big to fit inside a mailbox (obviously) but it also could not fit inside a parcel mailbox either, and I was forced to retrieve it from the post office. Items like this are better sent via Amazons own delivery service, or Fedex, etc. USPS is not designed to deliver large packages. Otherwise, I am happy with my purchase.

> 3 dayI bought this keyboard in Oct 2020, so its just about 10 months old. It does get daily use from me and had been doing quite well till this week. First the color started to look really odd on the keyboard, like 1/2 would be blue and 1/2 green. Then keys stopped working. Now the lights are complete dead. As it is not a keyboard with painted letters/numbers (the lights were how you saw them) it is virtually useless to me. I cant see what Im typing in a dark room or even dimly lit one. None of the arrow keys work at all either. Like I said, it was used daily but never harshly. It never fell. Its been sitting in front of my computer and I type with it. I dont even game with it, as my job is too demanding to leave me time for that. The mouse is still working great....but come on. 10 months before it breaks? We have to do better than this. *********************************** Update, the seller did reimburse me the cost of the keyboard, even though I sent it off to the electronic recycling center. I was happy they did reach out to me and make good on the bad electronics. I upped my rating from 2 to 4 because had it not broken, it was a nice fun keyboard and I really enjoyed using it.

> 3 dayThis was my first combo that I bought back in 2018. I liked it lasted a long time, the wights in the mouse were unique, and the light were cool.

Greater than one weekThe review way below was a review that I gave the keyboard AND the seller. After I wrote the review, I tried contacting the manufacture o the keyboard for a warranty exchange, They told me to go to Amazon where I bought it. I went to Amazon, they told me to go to the seller, I wrote the seller an email asking or an exchange. I waited and waited...... Didnt see a reply when they DID reply promptly. They were willing to exchange the keyboard immediately. I missed that email and thought they never emailed me back. I contacted Amazon and THEY ended up sending me out a NEW keyboard...... It was a day later when I caught up and saw that the seller sent an email letting me know that they would absolutely replace / exchange the keyboard as requested. If needed, I WILL do business with this seller again in the future! UPSTANDING and a great seller!!!! Changing the review rom a one star to a total FIVE!!!!! OLD review that is retracted -- I am NOT a heavy typer. I bought this then connected it on The 2nd month o the year on the 1st day. I CANNOT type the letter in-between the D and the G on the keyboard. I cannot type the month that I connected it because it starts with the letter that I cannot type.

Res ipsa loquitur -
> 3 dayIts true that you get what you pay for. I bought this keyboard/mouse set after buying another set for $20.99 on Amazon made by ChonChow (see my 3 stars review there for that) - I almost regretted that purchase because there were more negatives than positives about that keyboard and finally bought this RedDragon after my cat chew through the Chonchow keyboard usb cord last week. I now wrap my usb cords with aluminum foil - read that cats dont like to chew on aluminum foil. The RedDragon costs about 1/3 more than ChonChow but its definitely at least a 1/3 better in build quality and so much easier/more a pleasure to use (keys and typing feels smooth, solid and not too noisy). First, the negatives - (1) only the mouse usb cord is nicely braided (sturdy) and gold plated. wish the keyboards usb cord had the same quality build. (2) once your PC wakes from hibernate, the keyboard goes back to the factory default setting for breathing rainbow lights mode. It should not do this, it should simply go back to whatever lighting mode you had it before the computer went to sleep. (3) please add the ability to also turn off the mouses light, and the lights for both the keyboard and mouse will go to sleep/auto sleep when they are not use for a period of time (like over 10 minutes), or when you put the PC to sleep. (4) the instruction booklet is VERY minimal - the bare bones way they tell you how to change lighting effect etc. any non expert keyboard gamer would have trouble figuring out. How do you interpret <1>FN+DEL? Do you actually need to press the <? etc.? (5) this was shipped to me in its box, unprotected by an outer Amazon box, which is a little worrisome since the mail service can sometimes be rough with packages, and theres not much protecting the keyboard inside except one thin layer of bubble wrap (mine was fine but Im sure others may get damaged boxes). The GOOD - Reasonable price for overall quality build ($30 for keyboard, mouse and mouse bad). LONG usb cords for mouse and keyboard (they say its 5 feet long but seems +6feet!). As you can see from my ChonChow keyboard review, their claim of 5 feet is rather short and barely could reach from the desk directly below to the PC under the desk. The ReDragon cords are more than enough to go the distance - very happy about usb cords length. Like the ability to change lighting colors and effects, especially brightness levels, and even simply turning off the keyboards light. If it continues to work fine in the coming months, would definitely buy again!

> 3 dayThe keyboard is great. Not a fan of the rotating lights when the computer starts up, but its easy enough to put it back on the color I prefer. Ive been using this keyboard for a long time and its comfy to type on for work, as well as gaming. A solid multimedia keyboard. The mouse is comfortable, if a bit small, and is also great for a mouse. Only negative is that the left main button started squeaking after 6 months of use, and its annoying enough that I dont use it anymore. Its a plastic-on-plastic squeak, very annoying.
