Reporting in with the same issues as everybody else with the Matias keys. In my case it's the N key that often double or triple presses itself. Love the Matias keys otherwise, they're both silent comfortable with just the right amount of strength required to activate them. I'm quite disappointed the quality is so low.

A lot of ALPS style switches have issues with repeating, but if you know how to reset them, they'll usually behave afterwards. If you're still having problems with repeating keys, try pressing the switch down and jiggling the switch in a clockwise fashion. Another trick is to press down with pressure from the upper edge of the switch then press again with pressure from the left edge. Continue and do this for all four sides several times. Usually this will get repeating ALPS keys to stop repeating. I've found that some ALPS are susceptible to vibration and being stored "improperly". I had a board that was fine and had zero repeating issues. I kept it on its side for a few months. When I brought it back out, it was repeating like crazy. I had to retune a bunch of keys. I also sold an ALPS board that was working perfectly before I shipped it and when it was received, a lot of the keys were repeating. My ALPS boards all do this and they work fine after retuning and continue to be hassle free so long as I'm still using them daily. The trouble starts back up only after I put them away. Not all of them are this quirky though.
