CHERRY STREAM KEYBOARD, Wired Keyboard, EU Layout (QWERTY), Whisper-Quiet Keystrokes, Unique Typing Experience, Flat Design, Black

I was looking for a fairly flat keyboard with a short travel-distance on the keys, this delivered.I have a personal (even petty) dislike of tall key-caps and keys that I have to press a long distance before they register (so mechanical keyboards are out). This isn't as flat and short-travel as a laptop keyboard, but it's more like a hybrid between a laptop keyboard and a standard desktop keyboard (at least as far as "feel" goes; it IS a full sized keyboard!), which I find a really nice sweet-spot, and was exactly what I was looking for when I bought this.No rattling wobbly keys, no mushy key-presses, no temperamental "switches" that only work when they feel like it... feels easy, responsive, and precise, and doesn't cost the earth like most of the supposedly "high end" meme-keyboards I've come across.I can pick this thing up and shake it side-to-side, and hear NOTHING. If I do the same with my other keyboards, it sounds like shaking a tray of Lego with how loose and sloppy everything is. This thing is tight and solid.The keys are nice and bouncy, great feedback, no gimmicks, doesn't miss a beat. 5/5(I was looking back over my past Amazon purchases, I'm surprised to find I've been using this keyboard for coming up on 2 years with no problems, so I decided to drop a review.)

A few weeks in of using this keyboard for working from home - and love it.Great quality , love slim profile but not flat so a slight angle. Also I find I can type much faster than traditional keyboards with more key travel. Comfortable to use for 8-12 hours a day.I don't use the media keys but do in some apps make a lot of use of the function keys. But would make more use of them if connected to my home PCNice full size keys - working on excel a good part of the day means the numeric keyboard is a mustI have this hooked into a work laptop - and obviously working on this keyboard is much better than any laptop keyboard especially for extended hours each day. Also forget wireless type keyboards as I find them laggy and miss keystrokes - so maybe OK for home use (browsing) but not suitable for work in my opinion.That said I have an old HP keyboard (25 +years old) that's even heavier than this attached to my home PC and I absolutely love that - this Cherry keyboard is giving that a good run for its money. So if the HP keyboard does eventually break, I would have no problem considering another Cherry Stream. I got mine from Amazon Resale (was Warehouse) and saved myself a tenner, but even at full price would buy and recommend.

Good keyboard, great action, nice weight. Would be perfect if it tipped up at the back just a little further .

Bought to replace a Logik keyboard that I found personally the best for typing with- however that keyboard only lasted 6 months, and whilst I found it a delight to use did not trust a like-for-like replacement to last. I Plumped for this keyboard as did not want to spend a fortune but wanted a full keyboard and was not fussed about being wireless. Very happy with the result - keys are responsive and quiet, travel distances okay, firm and responsive to presses. I appreciate the media shortcut keys as I use the computer to play music or radio as I work - on most other keyboards these are FN key combos. A few other shortcut keys, which are useful though not yet in the habit of using them. It's physically a bit deeper than many other keyboards as the media keys above the FN key line, and it weighs significantly more than any other keyboard I've had for a long time - it feels really solid and sturdy. So far enjoying using this and just hope it lasts longer than the other. One point to note - I use a KVM switch as use same monitor with two computers - the media/shortcut keys did not work with keyboard plugged into the KVM switch which was initially disappointing but an issue with the switch not the keyboard. But playing around I found they do work when attached to a USB hub connected to the switch

I've been a happy user of Cherry's Stream keyboard for the last 20 years, having just started on my fourth one. Each one has lasted about 5-6 years of heavy usage (which is standard/good for a membrane keyboard).As a someone who spends much of my day typing, and doing a lot of Zoom calls and podcast interviews, the quietness of the keyboard is very important.I'm also a fan of the low-profile scissor-switch style keys - similar to a laptop - and the touch & feel of the keys provide a smooth comfortable and quiet typing experience.They've slightly changed the multimedia buttons on the latest version, and changed from blue LEDs to red, but the typing experience hasn't changed. You can see the new & old versions at the top and bottom of the attached photo.I highly recommend the Cherry brand for keyboards, and this specific model, the Stream keyboard to anyone who need a quiet keyboard. (I haven't received any incentives to post this review, I'm just a big fan and simply wouldn't buy any other keyboard).

I've been a Cherry keyboard fan since my very first computer (a 386 if you're old enough to remember those).Tough, rugged, reliable, positive feedback, these are all features I associate with Cherry, and I am not disappointed by this one. Compared with my previous one (from a well known brand) this keyboard feels more solid, comfortable to use, and my typing accuracy and speed has improved.There is so much more to a keyboard then being able to read the letter on the keys. Buy wisely, by Cherry.
