Razer Anansi lifespan?

So, in Christmas 2014 a couple of friends gave me a Razer Anansi keyboard as a gift, brand new, great keyboard, and i'm using the thing ever since.

I kind of wanna change it for a better keyboard, but i want a reason for such, i want to use this keyboard until it breaks.

So, how long does it take to kill one of these? I care very well after it, never spilled anything over the caps, never ate over it and i clean under the caps every 2 months.

it will take YEARS to kill that probably, just sell it and get a new one if you want something better

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Well you could sell it too.

But otherwise Razer stuff usually seems to last for like 2 years or so. Of course your mileage may vary

Anasi was one of the better keyboards. It'll last longer than a Blackwidow or something, so you can expect it to last for a bit.

Like everyone else said, selling is probably your best bet.

Well, it didn't took so long, one of the friends that gave me the keyboard came by the house today and spilled coffee on the thing, it died instantly.

Gonna get a mechanical keyboard for now.
