Good with a huge drawback
The media could not be loaded. Let's start with what is, for me, a borderline unacceptable situation: these are NOT PBT keycaps, no matter what the listing says. These are some kind of 50/50 PBT/ABS blend. They are double-shot, they have some size to them, they don't sound bad at all, but I question their longevity before letters start to smear.So, the good, and there's lots of good. For one, these look sharp. The blue color is more like teal, which ends up looking better than pure blue would anyway. The keycaps don't feel exactly like true PBT. They are definitely smoother and slipperier, but again, it's not a huge issue. These feel good to type on. The YSA keycap profile feels close to Cherry, which is what I'm used to and what a lot of custom boards come with.The set comes with an absolute metric stink-ton of keys, around 150 total, and there aren't many layouts (if any) that wouldn't work with this set. It's packaged in a bag that has individual lanes for keycaps to rest in, and it makes things easier to keep organized while switching out keycaps. My "Y" key came with a very small black smudge on the top left corner, but otherwise no smudging, damaged or missing keycaps to speak of.Sound on these is actually pretty good. I've included a video of a quick typing demo on a Weikav META68 keyboard that's been taped and foamed, and is using Akko pink linear switches that have a pretty quiet, pretty neutral sound to them. The caps lock key has a Cherry blue under there, just in case your ears are tuned for that sort of thing.Considering the price, these are one very, very big problem away from being five stars, and that problem is that they are advertised as PBT, but are actually a PBT/ABS blend. At this price point, I'm not inclined to throw a fit, because these are still a great deal at the $15 I paid. I just wish they would have been accurately labeled. Aside from that, I don't really have any big complaints to throw out there. These are definitely four stars, and if they were either actually PBT or disclosed the PBT/ABS blend in the listing title, they'd be an easy five from me.

Flawless
Was expecting to get my set with funky legends (lower case k) but it seems they have resolved the issues with their mold as the set i got is completely flawless. Seems like they haven't updated their amazon page.

Weird Legend, but Pretty Decent on the Whole
While these don't have the typical PBT texture, they do seem more resistant to oils than ABS keycaps. The smooth finish provides good traction and is more pleasing to the touch. The legends are kind of odd. The k's are lower case despite almost all of the legend was all caps. The Esc key being the other exception. Colors are as pictured, more like a teal or turquoise than a blue.
