I have been trying out a lot of different clicky switches recently (went overboard) and I think these are worth getting if you like Cherry MX Blues but feel that Cherry MX Blues are light and that you would like a heavier switch at times (I personally feel this way).
On a side note, these do not feel like Buckling Spring switches in my opinion as I bought a Unicomp New Model M recently besides a somewhat similar weighting. These feel like heavier Cherry MX Blues (which is what I wanted). I also tried Kailh Box Navy switches but I thought they were too tactile in my opinion and I prefer the feel of Cherry MX Green over them. I also prefer the feel of the Cherry MX Greens over Buckling Spring switches.
if you like click jacket switches, then go nuts. Otherwise for the same price you can get click bar switches like Kailh Box Jades for the same price with a much better sound (subjective).
I was intrigued by the product description likening the feel to that of a buckling spring switch. This is a load of marketing barnacles. They are a heavy, click jacket tactile. If you know what you like, then these are a good option. If you just like clicky switches, I would urge you to try a click bar switch instead,
My favorite keyboard has always been, and probably always will be, the IBM Model F.
I love Buckling Spring keyswitches.
The MX Greens have quickly become my favorite "basic" keyswitch. I'm sure you could find something better if you really looked for it and were willing to pay more, but the Greens are good enough to keep me from going down that rabbit hole!
If you like a key that pushes back and has a snap, these are it!
No problems with any of the keys that arrived and all are still working great!
I've bouldered for several years now and the tips of my fingers are pretty numb, using reds or blues/other "light" switches results in lots of errors as I can't feel them under my fingers. They seem solid enough, time will tell if they hold up.
If you like clicky switches I recommend it. It will not be the best review as I haven't tested many switches, but they feel great, they're easy to install, at least with a Planck keyboard !
