Logitech G710+

[Networking Wolf]

OK so to start this off this is a nice keyboard but in the last two years I have bought two of them and now here I am. The key switches which are on  the keyboards get stuck(hard to push down) for no reason at all. I wasn't using mine at all for about two weeks and when I cam back to it not the 8 key is ridiculously hard to push. Yes I know everyone will say well contact Logitech support but to those who say that I respond with this is my 6th one needing to be replaced for similar issues. The first one broke about a week after using it and the A key didn't even work. The next three keyboards had various key failures and then the last one before this just gave up after a month of use. I am done with getting this replaced and come Friday I will be going to best buy and buying a razer keyboard.

how could it be the invironment it has gone through a move and the issue still ocures there isn't any liquid near my pc and the apartment is kept cool at 90 f all day

90F?! wow you must live in a desert! I'd have cranked up the AC at 80F! 

 

Anyways, I dunno man, all I know is if you've gone through 6 keyboards... something besides the keyboard has got to be wrong. The probability is of 6 going bad are impossibly low without introducing additional factors from the environment.

Also, you must live in a dry place, humid heat is unbearable. And if you have dry air then you may also have more static electricity. Have you had bad LEDs on your previous keyboards?

Aren't the switches all made by cherry, so I don't know how Logitech could've failed in the QC that badly. I guess you can switch to a razer if you want, but I heard that their switches aren't as reliable because they are technically knock offs. (Unless you can find one that from 2013 or older) You'll probably better off getting a more reliable brand like corsair. But just saying most mechanical keyboard use cherry. Also, have you tried taking all the caps off to clean your keyboard?

I am probably going to go with corsair
