Thanks OP.

For anyone who just wants to quickly buy it and not search hard for a filler item, I added this usb-c cable for $1.74 as I can never really have enough of these laying around.
Choose the 3ft version: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=38801

The reviews of this (and others from the same line, with different switches) don't give me the warm fuzzies about the longevity of this keyboard. Multiple reviews about LEDs dying prematurely, and one about a whole switch dying.

Got the keyboard and the kazoo in the cart, YES20 doesn't seem to apply,.only get GET40 which brings the price down to $30, but not to $20. Dead?

I have purchased this before to upgrade from a cheap Made In China brand on Amazon and thought the build quality was good for the price. However, I had to RMA twice because of switches failing.
I would NOT recommend.

I have had three of these over the last year... From a single purchase (2 replacements under warranty and original). Expect 3 months of ok typing, led backlights fail, and then columns of keys fail. Warranty is expired now, so I'm stuck with this $hitpile.

I'll rip it apart and see if the problem is failing diodes or leds or what... Super annoying.

Not worth it at any price.

Thanks. Ordered (KB and a USB-C cable).

Both codes worked for me. Not sure if sequence of coupon application matters but I used YES20 first and then GET40.

Or you could have some fun and get this [monoprice.com], I guess?!? WtAF is that doing in their product lineup?
I have to disagree - why would you ~NOT~ want to have kazoo awesomeness in one's product line-up? That kazoo is almost guaranteed to last longer, and likely bring more enjoyment, than the keyboard.

Why not, I seem to not be able to get enough "spare" mechanical keyboards in my home. AND Brown switches are the best!
