Great Razer Replacement
I bought these to replace the switches in my Razer Blackwidow V4 75%. These have a VERY similar feel to the stock tactile oranges. The sound isn't quite the same, but I am very happy with the responsiveness. I do a lot of gaming and typing, and in the time since I've had these my Razer switches had already started double typing. These are perfect.

Super satisfying
Super satisfying tactile feel, good quality, and even though it's more pricey I'd say I got my money's worth.

Very good. Heavy tactile, loud, crisp, full
I love the actuation force required. It feels very tactile, almost a bit too much. Sounds crisp but feels full and bassy. It is relatively loud, but I would expect that. Very high quality and the lube was good too.

Very interesting tactile switch with a terrible factory lube.
The switch is very unusual tactile, but I like it. After lubing it manually, it feels and sounds great. However, the factory lube is bad and very inconsistent. If you want to get this switch, plan to lube it yourself, as out of the box it won't be a good experience.

GREAT tactile switches
The media could not be loaded. LOVE these switches. They were loud and clacky at first but now that I’ve lubed them they’re a bit thocky. A few came with bent pins but it wasn’t anything I couldn’t bend in place. They snap well in place and have great tactility! They’re very responsive as well. I’d recommend these kangaroos! They feel just as nice as they sound.

They feel good and i love the sound and feedback
The media could not be loaded. After two years of using brown switches on my Nuphy Halo keyboard, I decided it was time for a change. Linear switches never did the trick for me as they lacked the feedback i desired. On a whim, I purchased the Gateron Baby Kangaroo 2.0, and it was love at first type!! The installation was a breeze. The tactile bump is very noticeable, enhancing the typing feel and making the keyboard sound creamy, especially with the mods I've applied to my Nuphy Halo.These switches are not as light as the browns and require a bit more force, which might take some getting used to, but they are by far my favorite switches to date due to the superior tactile feedback they provide.Two weeks into using the new switches, I decided to re-lube them to further refine my typing experience. Here's how I did it:1. Cleaning: I disassembled the switches and washed all the stems with Dawn dish soap in warm water to remove the factory lube completely.2. Lubricating: I use authentic Krytox GPL204 lube from DuPont. It's important to me that the lubrication is genuine, especially since many aftermarket Krytox brands don't list their chemical components.3. Modding: I added 0.3mm Foam Switch Films to each switch. This significantly reduced stem wobble and tightened the switch housing tolerances, although it didn't alter the sound much.These steps took my typing experience from good to great, making each keystorke more satisfying than the last. If you're looking for a switch that brings out the best in your mechanical keyboard, I highly recommend giving the Baby Kangaroo 2.0 a try. They might just make you fall in love with your keyboard all over again!

Great price, very responsive and they sound great. The factory lube job was acceptable. It's my favorite heavy tactile switch thus far. I've used it in a Royal RK96 board as well as in the Womire WK60 to great satisfaction.
