My first custom keycap(s), and it did not disappoint in the slightest.
The cap itself is pure craftmanship. You can tell even the tiniest crumbs and chips on the Chippy Cookies are well thought out and painted to perfection. It feels sturdy too, and the Cherry MX-shape fits Adomax Flaretech switches fine enough — Cherry's own switches are a perfect fit.
As a bonus, Dwarf Factory scores points when it comes to packaging, the included (amazingly cute) booklet, as well as solid communication with their buyers. Postponing a delivery doesn't matter that much if the seller is upfront about it, and just wants to ensure quality. That's S-tier service, if you'd ask me.
Only downside for Europeans/Dutchies is the risk of having to pay additional import taxes — especially when delivery is done by Drop, from the US. We had to pay an additional ~32 dollars to actually receive the package (which carried two keycaps), but neither Dwarf Factory nor Drop can really be blamed for that one.
Posted a full (Dutch) review article on the entire experience with more pictures, as well as a lengthy video review on YouTube.
Thanks a bunch, Dwarf Factory!
When I open the package, I was speechless. What a surprise, the picture was beautiful but when you have it in your hand they are so yummy. This is my first time buying Artisan Keycaps and I think Dwarf Factory got me addicted to this hobby. There is no way to turn back now. =p
Was off topic for a little moment there, I brought M. Sweety Chocolate. The detail on the keycaps look way much better then the picture. The color was very vibrant and is well painted. The keycaps fit perfectly on my mx switch. This is hight quality artisan keycap and worth getting.
Thank you so much Dwarf Factory, it worth the wait so much because the quality is excellent. It make me so happy and I love the Artisan Keycap a lot.
I got the sweety chocolate style. The design and the level of detail is great, but it is dwarfed by its neighbours, which are SA profile. Definitely would work better with lower profile keycaps.
Have bought from Dwarf Factory before, here on Drop and off of their website, and I can only praise them for the quality they have consistently put out. I now have a total of 11 of their caps: 8 from this drop, their Dwarven chest before they re-logo-ed, the Whale Lighthouse, and their Astronaut Moon Cleaning. All of them were instant hits with me and anyone I showed them to. If I was any better of a photographer, I would be spamming their work on my instagram. If you like any of their works, I highly recommend you get in on them because you won't be disappointed.
The attention to detail on this is super insane! From the packaging to the actual keycap, a true artisan workmanship.
Looks better in person than the pictures which is real mind blowing.
Expect me to buy more from Dwarf Factory !
