CHERRY KC 6000 SLIM, Ultra-Flat Design Keyboard, UK Layout (QWERTY), Wired (USB-A Connection), Quiet, Durable Key Labelling, Black

Excellent upgrade from the keyboard that most likely came with your desktop. It's a pleasure to use this keyboard and it's left me wondering why I haven't heard of Cherry before and why I didn't switch years ago! It does lie flat on the desk, which I've quickly adjusted to. Note that it comes with four self-adhesive feet which you can put on to raise the keyboard, but they're one height, not adjustable.

For some context, I bought this for my wife who works long hours writing emails all day long, she wears out the printing and the switches fail on her normally every 2-3 months, thats cheap KB’s from Chinese brands to expensive ones from major brands. We both see interface items like mice & keyboards as tools and having both worked high-profile jobs doing long hours, know that feel and durability is important. We both used to preferred long-throw keys, but in recent years have transitioned to short throw Apple style KB’s to reduce RSI, fatigue and improve comfort. If you are a hardcore user, this keyboard is excellent; well made, comfortable, reasonably priced and has the double height return key! It’s lasted for 10 months so far and seems like it may go for at least the same duration again. Keys look printed not etched but have not worn off, and the switches are still working well. Wired is a bit of a drag, but then again we don’t have to change the batteries or charge it. I think this is up there with the best KB’s available!

I got this as a replacement for a faulty Cherry Strait 3.0 and I'm very glad I did. So far the typing experience is superb. The soft clicking feel of the keys is amazing and makes you want to type more and more. Especially if you have ever used an Apple keyboard you'll be able to appreciate the quality of the Cherry KC 6000 Slim. If not anything, for the huge difference in price, you cannot buy anything closer than that. Also the look of the silver KC 6000 is almost identical to an Apple keyboard. The full keyboard layout is pleasing, well and properly spaced and the keys are large enough, but not huge, they will allow comfortable typing. The device is heavy enough and includes small rubber pads that prevent it from sliping or moving around even when the keyboard is placed on a glass surface. One feature that is really missing are inclination brackets at the back, so users can have the keyboard more inclined for more comfortable typing. As it stands it is not bad, but if you're used to inclined keyboard, the flatness of the KC 6000 might put you off. The USB cable of the keyboard is about 1.85m in length, so that should cover most needs. I haven't tried it in playing games, but I think that gaming is not what the KC 6000 was made for primarily. Sure it would tackle a bit of games, but there are other keyboards specifically for that. The KC 6000 is more business use and writing orientated. Loving this keyboard, it fed my nostalgia for the good ol' Apple keyboard into a pc environment. I hope the next revision of this keyboard comes with inclination brackets, it would be an absolute must have keyboard then.

This is a fantastic choice for touch typists who want a slim profile wired board. If you're switching from the MX Keys, you should be aware that the keys are spaced slightly further apart. You get used to it fairly quickly though. One other thing is that you have to hit the Enter and Caps Lock keys quite hard and centrally. I'm sure not everybody will like that. As always with a device like this, you can't be sure until you try it for yourself.

Although it looks like laptop keys, let me make it very clear that these keys are wayyyy better than laptops. The key travel (as in how deep the key goes when you press it) is absolutely ideal for painless typing. Very very quiet keyboard! The only upgrade to this keyboard would be the Logitech MX Keys/Craft, but then we're talking silly money really (Logitech is doing an Apple obviously!). The only issue this keyboard has is that the height is not adjustable, I have no idea how this even went into production without height tabs underneath, somebody at Cherry must have been sleeping! However the good news is that you can just stick some rubber feet on the rear bottom side and get the height you need, as I have done and now the keyboard is without a doubt the best keyboard I have ever typed on. Highly recommended if the appearance, quietness, quality of keys is important, this keyboard ticks all the boxes, the only gripe is the lack of inbuilt height adjustment, but as I said earlier, very simple to workaround with some sticky rubber feet from Amazon etc.

I got this PC version as a replacement to a Mac keyboard that I used on Mac and PC and this one is almost identical. The low profile keys may for quick crisp typing with just the right amount of feedback need for general typing and the low profile keys (similar to laptop ones) make typing much quicker than the more chunky standard basic PC keyboards. I wouldn't say this is a gaming keyboard, although you could technically use any keyboard for gaming. I would not exactly calls this a "whisper quiet" keyboard as there is still sound when typing (just ligght brushing you fingers over keys gives the subtle shuffle sound) but not loud clickety clack like many keyboards. Its flat keyboard and bit of weight to is is very comparable to the 3 times more expensive Mac keyboard - this is almost identical in length and only slightly (few mils) taller than that. Its nice to get a keyboard with a nice sized Enter key, although left shift is like a third of the size of right shift, perhaps changes according to keyboard language layout (got British one). The images here are a slightly bit enhanced as the red colour under and around keys is not as pronouced on the keyboard as in the pics, its much duller and not noticed depending on angle and light level. The only negative I could give this keyboard is the design for the raising of the keyboard. I use it flat as the rubber blocks you get come in one size and you have to peel and stick them on - so there is no flexibility to add or remove - use flat or raised depending on your useage in a day. Would have been nice if the "fixed approach" gave two sized blocks set to cover more individual tastes. Another oddity is the Caps Lock, its a down arrow, rather than the usual "Caps Lock", "Caps" or "double Up arrow" on all other keyboards I have used - perhaps its a cultural thing being German? All things aside I'd still recommend this keyboard for any PC user, and especially anyone looking for a Mac replacement (if you get the grey mac model keys edition) for a fraction of the price.

It is a decent keyboard. It is OK for occasional gaming, because the WASD keys and the other keys typically used during gaming can be activated simultaneously. For proper gaming, however, it is better to get a real gaming keyboard. I would have liked if there was a backlit version of this keyboard, but there isn't. At the end I built a dedicated LED lamp for the keyboard though, which is even better than having a backlit keyboard in my opinion. The biggest pain point is that even the smallest debris or breadcrumb will interfere with the activation of the keys, because it prevents them for moving until the end. I suppose it is the price to pay for the very short travel of the keys. Still, I regret buying this keyboard due to that. The position of the lock key just above the backspace is also difficult to justify. Pressing that key locks the PC, equivalent to pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete and then selecting Lock from the menu. It is way to easy to mistakenly activate it. Poor choice and poor design. Useful to have the key for starting the calculator, but it is at the very far right of the keyboard. Maybe they should have swapped its position with the useless key for locking the PC. The rubber feet are effective at keeping the keyboard in place. The feet are not adjustable and are maybe a bit too low, but I got used to it quickly.

This came as a big disappointment, I can't believe a household name like Cherry has the audacity to market such an appalling keyboard. Despite being a "scissor key" keyboard, the feedback is very poor, almost indistinguishable by cheap rubber dome keyboards. The activation threshold is barely perceptible. It lays too flat on the table, there are no adjustable feet, so the angle is fixed, and too low. The keys rattle! This was almost incredible, as soon as I started using it. I don't abuse keyboards, I really have a fairly light touch, but typing normally is enough to make many keys rattle at the same time. It's irritating and distracting, honestly I've never seen anything awful like this. The problem compounds with the fact that the profile is slightly arched, so the middle does not rest on the table, it's raised by a couple of millimetres. Again, let me reassure I'm not a heavy typist, I type all day and hitting the keys hard would be tiring and unsustainable. Yet the keyboard flexes visibly under the key strokes, which is not just bad in itself, but also amplifies the rattling. I normally try to find positives in every product, but this keyboard is authentic garbage. I can't be bothered to return it, this will go straight to landfill.

Top toetsenbord, lekker vlak en comfortabel. Met UK layout besteld en gekregen.

Utile pour coder ou jouer. Le touché est bon. Et suffisamment plat. Néanmoins je conseillerais plutôt de chercher un clavier raccourci, pour une meilleure ergonomie avec la souris, sinon le bras à tendance à avoir un angle trop élevé sur l'extérieur. N'oublier pas que les mains sur un clavier se trouve sur les lettres de celui-ci, donc le clavier n'est pas aligner avec votre écran normalement, mais un peu sur la droite. Si votre clavier est aligné avec l'écran (autant a droite que à gauche par rapport au centre de l'écran), alors il est probable que vous décaliez votre buste ou que vous vous tournez vers la gauche pour les longues session d'écriture/code. Ce qui n'est pas bon non plus. Faut apprendre à ne plus utiliser la souris, mais pas toujours efficace...

Il tocco leggero sui tasti, il design sottile aiuta l'ergonomia ed è piacevole alla vista. Questo è il quarto KC6000 che ho comprato. Li ho al lavoro e a casa. Ormai, ne ho 4 di queste tastiere.

False advertisement. Last picture indicated that the keyboard was adjustable but that is false..

Excelente teclado que ha hecho que mi trabajo sea mucho más fácil. Excelente servicio post venta también ya que, después de 3 años usándolo, me han mandado uno nuevo porque una de las combinaciones de teclas dejó de funcionar.
