Stream Wired Keyboard Without Number Pad, Compact TKL | Whisper Quiet Keys, Unique Typing Feel, Slim Design, SX Scissor Switches, QWERTY, Black

Quality: In my opinion, it's a fully evolved version of the KC1000. It lacks the cheap plastic feel of the KC1000, feels solid overall, and the keys don't wobble excessively. Thanks to the metal support, deformation is barely noticeable. Typing Feel: Smoother than the KC1000, but retains its tactile feedback. More comfortable than the Logitech K295 because of its lower overall height, but without any added stiffness. More stable than laptop keyboards; it can be considered an enhanced version of a laptop keyboard. Sound: Quieter than the KC1000, basically on par with the K295. Quite quiet in actual use. Summary: I think it's the best membrane keyboard type outside of mechanical keyboards, a godsend for those who don't want the high travel distance of mechanical switches.

This is great TKL keyboard for typing. The keyswitches are very tactile without being too stiff, and the keyboard is very quiet when typing. It would be perfect for office use. The keyboard itself feels very high quality, and had more weight to it than I imagined when I removed it from the box. The metal plate inside of it makes it feel very stable and planted on the desktop and helps with the typing feel. The key labels look to be pad-printed, which usually lasts much longer than white laser etching (white letters on black keys) on some keyboards. Ideally, dye sublimation and double-shot key labels last longer, but I have old logitech keyboards with pad-printed key labels that have lasted many years with no degradation of the key labels at all. For gaming, I have heard this keyboard does not allow certain combinations of 3 keys to be pressed at once, but so far in all the gaming I have done, it works fine unless you are used to pressing 4 keys at a time for some commands. The light indicators for the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock are easy to see but only super bright when looking straight down at the keys. The typing feel is amazing. For me it is the perfect level of tactility..very tactile, but in no way is it tiring to type on. There is no mushiness at all. I can't believe they are selling this for $25. It feels more like $50-$80 keyboard to me. I'm going to buy another one just to have on hand. The styling of the keyboard is very 'professional'.. meaning.. no fancy RGB or gimmicks, and the metal "Cherry" logo at the bottom is a classy touch. Overall, an excellent TKL keyboard for those that like that Thinkpad-like typing experience but with a higher quality feel to it. I can type faster than ever on this thing with very few mistakes. I hope Cherry keeps making these keyboards!

I was looking for a smaller keyboard so that it would fit in a tight space, but didn't want the keys on the keyboard to be shrunken down. Looking around, I stumbled onto this keyboard without the numpad. I had no idea they made them this way. Perfect I thought and then I read the reviews. Hmm. German engineering, can't go wrong there. Received the keyboard in a few days and I am impressed by it's quality. It's sturdily made and the keys feel great. It's not silent, but close to it. Kind of like the logitech mice with near silent clicks. So glad I took the chance with this keyboard. Update: took away one star cause the keys are pretty fragile. just cleaning caused my caplocks key to be unstable.

Perfect for limited space and those who don't need a seperate numerical keypad enough to justify them taking up extra berth on desk. Centerfield never aligned well with monitor which determined the following layout of components. Experimenting with several configurations, 10 keyless, including swap out key style compact game keyboards that click and are too tall, to ergonomic wave shaped and ordinary rectangular shapes, nothing yet had worked or fit comfortably on desk. Cherry Stream keyboard answered with their amazing layout and dimensions. Keys really are phenomenal! Perfect size, indent for fingertip allowing faster travel and smoother typing. Overall solid, unlike standard QWERTY keyboards that bend or flex. Cherry has an elegant professional feel about it. Corners are rounded, proportionally pleasing to the eye and the Modern white color tone is calm not Titanium sharp. By far the best keyboard I've ever used at home or in jobs where zero personal peripherals drives et al were allowed in employee workspaces, you had to use their equipment. Consider the dimensions; Cherry is a bit deeper front to back with narrower width. Quality is far above average, more than I expected, it's a super bargain for a such well made keyboard. Buy one now before Amazon runs out because I want to order another soon.

Now that I've bought a second one as a "backup" I can share this; was reluctant before to make sure people dont buy them out. ;-) If you are like me, who absolutely loved logitech flat ultrax, and wept when they stopped making those... Yes, this is the next version of those. Yes the keys feel great. It's a bit closer to the second model of ultrax (a bit more force needed to press the button - initially), but I'm sure with time I'll wear those down a bit and make them work like ultrax v1. ;-) As a flat ultrax lover, I never found a better keyboard, until now. Not only we get a TKL version, but this boy is so thin, and quiet... And has the perfect weight. A bit heavier than ultrax I believe, does not feel like a flimsy $10 keyboard. I've tried numerous mechanical low-profile keyboards and they all had something that just didn't feel right. Either the key travel or the actuation force never clicked (ha ha) with me. Cherry Stream feels like typing on those old IBM/Lenovo keyboards, where the designer paid more attention to the typing comfort than how they looked (not saying they looked bad, though). I stashed around 8-10 other keyboards after getting this one, just because the typing comfort tops them all easily. If you're thinking I've said the same thing too many times, you're right, but that's just because I love typing on this keyboard, it's simply a pleasure. I could produce more clone/nonsense sentences, just to enjoy the experience of typing on this GOOD BOY. I love that keyboard. I hope they never stop making them. Personally I believe no other keyboard comes close to how right they got the feel on this one. Thank you so much. IMPORTANT EDIT: this is NOT a gaming keyboard, though. it registers up to three keys pressed at the same time, but if you need 4+ more, it just wont work. Best typing keyboard, not necessarily the best gaming keyboard, depending on your game.

Fits well next to the mouse pad on my desk due to the reduced form factor. I do not use the numpad on keyboards so the smaller size was a big plus for me as my mouse pad is on the bigger side. The feel of the switches is excellent and pleasing to type with. It is relatively quiet, but not silent. Good weight and rigidity to the keyboard so it feels premium quality with no flex on regular usage. It is low profile with a tactile feel similar to a laptop keyboard where the key travel (and your fingers moving) is less than most conventional desktop keyboards. It has foldable flaps at the back so you can elevate the keyboard at angle if you so prefer, though I do not use the flaps and prefer the keyboard flat and low profile against the desk. I use it primarily for gaming and typing for programming and documents etc. I have had no issues with it. Another review mentioned that there are issues with not registering multiple key presses while playing certain games. I have not experienced any issues with that myself. On testing, there appears to be about 3-4 keys you can keep pressed down simultaneously after which the keys in the same area will not trigger another keypress. But it seems you can press another key in a different area and it will still register. No doubt there is some technical reason for this but I rarely have to keep 3-4 keys pressed down during games and have not had any issues with this. Overall, I believe this keyboard is excellent value for money and I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a new TenKeyLess keyboard with a feel more like that of a laptop keyboard.

I wanted a relatively inexpensive TKL (Ten Key Less) keyboard that is of a decent quality. Since this was on sale, the price is great. I'm not sure I would have paid full price though as this keyboard does lack some features that might be expected in a more expensive keyboard. I was reassured by the Cherry brand on this one because I know they are world renowned for the mechanical switches used in Mechanical keyboards. Overall the keyboard feels nice. The low profile keys are pretty similar to a laptop keyboard rather than a traditional desktop keyboard. At this price it is obviously not a "mechanical" keyboard, and probably relies on a membrane however. They key layout on this appears to be standard. By that I mean that it doesn't appear to have any funky shaped or sized keys that are in the wrong places. Some manufacturers seem to think it's a great idea to rearrange the layout a little...looking at you M$oft. This makes transitioning to a new keyboard or using multiple keyboards intermittently very frustrating. I will not buy keyboards that have funky keys. The flip out feet are of a typical design, one that unfortunately can result in broken feet if you are abusive. We've all probably had a one legged keyboard at one point in our lives. The weight of they keyboard is good, thanks to the metal plate. Along with the rubber feet, you should have no problems with the keyboard creeping around. Many reviewers noted that the received the incorrect language version. Mine was fortunately the correct US English layout. It's important to note that this is NOT a good gaming keyboard. It lacks any backlighting for one thing. I personally don't like to sit in a well lit room when I'm playing games. It is also plagued with "ghosting" issues, which for a regular user in a home or office will probably not be noticed. If you're a gamer however you might notice that holding certain keys down will prevent other keys from working. Example: holding down SHIFT, W, D...you will be unable to press R. Never mind that it might be physically difficult to do so anyway...you might be some kind of 6 fingered super dexterous gamer. There are plenty of inexpensive, backlit membrane keyboards that have less ghosting issues. Gaming aside, if you just need a good quality, compact, low-profile keyboard for typing in well lit environments then this one isn't bad at all. I'm giving this a full 5 stars because they say right in the product description that it's ideal for office and industrial use.

Perfect keyboard. just what I was looking for, the right size, love the color, white, keys feel good, easy typing, quiet, love it!

I have always been happy with my fingers on a cherry.

I work fulltime at home in an office setting. I type for a living and as such, I have gone through many, many keyboards over the years. I have always been a fan of mechanical keyboards. The most recent keyboard I was using was a Hyper X with Cherry blue switches that I have been using for the past two years. Prior to that, I had a Steelseries keyboard with their own branded mechanical blue switches. I used to love typing on a mechanical keyboard, but over time, I have grown tired of the clicking and clacking, as well as the force required to press the keys, and the tall height as well. When you type hundreds of documents a month, your fingers on a mechanical keyboard become fatigued. I was in the market for a new (non mechanical) keyboard for my work purposes and I know from experience that Cherry is a high quality, trusted brand. I used to use scissor switches years back before I moved to mechanical and my last scissor switch keyboard was a Logitech which was amazing. I figured I would give this keyboard a try, and all I can say is Wow! I LOVE the typing experience on this Cherry keyboard. The TKL layout brings my mouse hand closer inwards which helps with an ergonomic setup. The keys are very soft, quiet and still have a very tactile feel with a nice “pop” feeling with each press. The keys have a rough-ish texture that helps with finger grip. As well, they are wide and easy to press with even the slightest touch. These are no mechanical keys, which, for me, is a great benefit and exactly what I was hoping for. Absolutely love everything about this keyboard. It looks premium, feels extremely durable and high quality. It is an all plastic design, but it feels every bit as solid as my steel mechanical keyboards. I just can’t believe how low the price was on such a quality product from a well known company! If you type for a living and you are not a fan of mechanical keyboards, then you will NOT be disappointed with this. It is small, compact, yet still large enough to comfortably type on and it feels very nice and high quality. Love this keyboard!

Calidad: A pesar de ser muy delgado, se siente de una construcción muy resistente. Es de muy bajo perfil y mecanismo de tijera, lo que lo hace bastante similar a un teclado de laptop. Sonido: Es sumamente silencioso. Nada que ver con un teclado mecánico (por lo menos de los switches más comunes). También es más silencioso que algunos teclados de membrana. La gente que dice que pudiera ser aún más silencioso posiblemente esperaban que sonara como las pisadas de un gato, porque lo único que se oye es el sonido de los dedos deslizándose por una superficie de plástico Distribución: ANSI (tecla Enter horizontal y sin la tecla <> entre el shift y la Z) de tamaño Tenkeyless (Sin pad numérico). No tiene la Ñ, y no puedo creer que alguien tenga que aclarar que aún así la tecla al lado de la L va a mandar una Ñ si en el sistema operativo la configuración es la correcta. Así que no se preocupen. Cuenta con controles multimedia y ninguna de las funciones requiere presionar dos teclas simultáneas (Fn + otra tecla para mandar ImprPant por ejemplo) 10 de 10, totalmente recomendado. Lo estoy usando para escribir reseñas de Amazon desde el armario de unos desconocidos y no me han escuchado todavía. De verdad es silencioso.

Perfect choice for the ones looking for Scissor keys, low profile, quite quiet strokes for office use. Absolutely value for the money.

This is going to be my go to keyboard for a long time. I love this keyboard. Feels like great quality. It's got close the same satisfaction of typing as a mechanical keyboard, however, with only 10% or less of the noise. It's NOT THE SAME. But good enough. Looks nice. Feels nice. I like it!
