Honestly I'd stay away from most CM Storm keyboards, I've had a few models and almost all of them have had really crappy build quality as regards paint fade and peel.

Mechanical keyboard?

Yeah I had the Rapid-i for a little while, paint started rubbing off the keys within a month. Maybe I just had bad luck with them. I'm just sharing my own experiences.
