Also, unless you have money to waste, don't go heading into the rabbit hole of custom mechanical keyboards. These days there are tons of better switch brands than Cherry and they can get pretty pricey.

Unless you own this keyboard or have used it, do not give out incorrect advice.
But bashing Otemu switches with no experience or data about them is not cool. As far as Cherry clones go, Otemu is quite good, and they're better than almost any Cherry clones.
The point is that this specific Red Dragon, which I also own, has so many good reviews because it's extremely well made and works well for the cost.
Is it as good as a $100 keyboard? Of course not, but a $100 keyboard is not 5+ times better than this one for $18.
I still have the keyboard, but replaced all the keycaps with a PBT set, the regular/original ABS keycaps can get oily quickly.
i would recommend to buy this if anyone interested in trying out entry level mechanical keyboard.

How about this, we will leave it at this and move on:
You're right, this comes with decent OUTEMU switches. They're louder than some people like, but if you're on a budget this is a decent starter keyboard.

No one is saying Outemu switches, or Redragon keyboards are bad. Just the opposite. You seem to be fighting imagined arguments that no one is making.

IMHO, I would recommend the red linear switches for the ~$27, unless the volume is not an issue. I now use my K552 with the blues on my racing simulator because they were too loud to use as my primary keyboard.
But I like that comment about the blue's being used to convince someone's boss to let them work from home.
I got a Royal Kludge with brown switches, which is nice, but a lot more than $27. The Royal Kludge is also fully hot-swappable with any Cherry-type switch. I haven't had time to upgrade it yet. And it has Bluetooth.
Otherwise, Amazon has the tenkeyless one with free shipping too: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089P3H8RX
