For me, it’s KAT Cyberspace.
Looked absolutely stunning on the renders, but once received it’s a big piece of shit.
Runner-up is SA Espresso. The gradients just doesn’t flow well in person.
I haven’t bought too many keycap sets but I had the misfortune to get on the SA Polyclear group buy. They are nothing like the renders, crazy cloudy in appearance. But they feel excellent to type on so it’s not like I regret getting them. I also joined into the KAT Mizu groupbuy which was delayed like 3 years. But the result was almost worth the wait.
Your photo of cyberspace doesn’t look too bad, is it supposed to glow in the dark as it seems to imply in the render? I’ve learned to be extra skeptical of designers who post renders that are dark or artsy, I need to see some real world lighting for true consideration of your set.
One big letdown was the first run of XDA Canvas. Was the hotness when it was announced: new profile, custom colors and fonts with super beautiful renders(for back in the day). Turned out to be a hot mess with font alignment, bleeding, warping etc., not sure if Drop fixed it since then. It was my second big lesson in the mk world after the bunnylake gmk hyperfuse debacle
It does glow in the dark, but just the quality of the print and caps that’s horrible. It feels and looks cheap. I’ve had Keyreative sets before and they’re not that bad.
