I recently asked my girlfriend what keyboard she used at her office job and I was appalled to find that she was given a used Dell Rubber dome keyboard! :o

So I recovered this nice little Havit HV-KB389L starter mechanical keyboard from the recycle center for a few dollars. After cleaning it up and picking up some new cherry compatible keycaps to her preference off of amazon, its done and currently stationed at her desk at work!
For about $25 she has a great little office keyboard understands the appeal of a good keyboard.
I think she might even be one of us now.

Can we get a short typing demo on that keyboard?

My impression from these entry level chinese clone RGB board was that they are commonly unpleasantly loud with high pitched plastic noise.

Just wondering if that thing happens to be office proof sound wise because that would really be a steal ;)
