I have stalked this keyboard and mouse combo for a year on Amazon because I knew it was perfect for my nearly 13 year old son who games NON-STOP on a large, touchscreen PC. We have purchased endless wireless keyboards, mouses, and headsets and I learned fast that when it comes to gaming....you can either waste tons of money on wireless only to get endless lag and complaints from your teens...OR you can buy wired devices that are much faster and don't need replacement every six months.I ended up paying $40.00 for this set because sadly....they ran low near Black Friday and Cyber Monday and my choice was "wait for it to go back to $29.99 and risk losing it entirely...or suck it up and pay more to make sure you get it". So I paid $40 and am still just as thrilled as the $30.00 I had planned to pay. They keyboard is large and FINALLY I cannot hear him clicking away endlessly no matter where I am in the house. The colors are very vibrant and the mouse is really very high end with lots of options compared to higher-priced models. My son didn't "want" a wired set because like all younger kids....they've lived in a wireless world their entire lives. But since I did my research and bought a USB Hub....he's thrilled to plug all of this in (plus I bought him wired and lighted headphones/microphone awhile back that need 2 ports themselves) without actually losing 4 total ports.He says the keyboard is speedier and much easier to use for gaming as well as in-game chat. The colors are great for him and he likes the ability to switch modes on the mouse, as well as choosing "breathe" to fade colors in and out or to keep the mouse one color. He likes the DPI and Anti-Ghosting options, but is still acclimating to when and where to use them.For a Christmas Gift, this was perfect for my son because he's already been at the age for several years where he wants NOTHING but "Steam Gift Cards" and gives me zero ideas of what to put under the tree. This was reasonably priced, exciting for him to open (it's the first thing he hooked up and even stopped opening gifts to do so), and actually seemed to be more of a thrill than the replacement HD TV I bought him for his bedroom (he was using a 20 year old tube TV). I personally love the look of it and the membrane keys are nearly silent compared to any style of keyboard. The keyboard has solid weight and wiring with no cheap attributes that make me fear it breaking after a few months.For a teen that is hard to buy for and you aren't looking to spend $200 on a single gift....this was perfect. And although I'd have loved to get the normal price of $29.99....I don't regret snatching it up for the $39.99 price one bit. He loves and I love it and I recommend it to anyone looking for a great gift to a gamer or just someone who loves awesome colors, speedy response, and a large/nice layout. I absolutely recommend this set above others in the "Under $100" price range. Really a fantastic purchase!****UPDATE January 20, 2017******I had a minor problem with the mouse, but the keyboard is functioning famously! I contacted the seller and unlike many transactions, the seller responded within the hour with a solution. They offered a replacement mouse that is "upgraded" without my needing to return the whole set (since I have no issue with the keyboard) and apologized for any problems with the mouse, which were minor. My son experienced the mouse "going off in all directions despite using directional keys" and as soon as I contacted the seller about the issue, he/they immediately offered to send an upgraded mouse at no cost to me without the hassle of returning the mouse that isn't working properly. The response was lightening-fast and despite only contacting the seller mere hours ago....they already responded, solved the problem, provided a code to purchase a replacement mouse (at no cost to me) and were clearly interested in my experience with the new mouse once it arrives. This is some of the fastest and most accurate "correction" of a minor problem I have had on Amazon and this Seller is clearly dedicated to excellence in both service as well as functionality. I'm more than impressed as a regular Amazon shopper in the diligence, speed, and correction to what is essentially a "hinky" mouse that may or may not be manufacturer defect. They didn't question the problem with the mouse and immediately offered an upgraded mouse for free with no need for me to go through the exhausting exchange and return/refund experience. I just contacted them with the problem and they responded, corrected the issue, and had a new mouse available to me within about 3 hours of my first contact. This is truly excellence in customer service and pride in their products. I cannot recommend this Seller enough in their ability and care in response, correction, and ability to provide truly awesome service. This is a Seller that should fall into what I call "Stellar Seller" on Amazon. Amazing service and quality products and they actually DO honor their guarantee without argument or lack of speed and response. Truly and honest seller invested in their products! As a long-time Amazon shopper....this experience is in my Top 3 for excellence and I HIGHLY recommend them for their service as being awesome, fast, and totally easy. Thanks so much for making this Christmas Gift as great as it was when I bought it. Truly a trusted and honest Seller. Would recommend again and again!!*****
