Seriously I have yet to have a typical membrane keyboard last me more than 3 months before keys begin to wear out lettering wears off or buttons stick or have issues. Keyboard looks good but looks are only part of the equation without quality it just becomes pretty looking junk.
That said however, as mechanical gaming keyboards have gotten a lot more "mainstream" these days, I would never go buy another membrane one.

Looks like they have similar ideas. Roccat's implementation is better
Saitek Eclipse 2 dead after 3-4 months
Sidewinder X6 keys began to wear out after 3-4 months keyboard complete dead after 1 year
2x Thermaltake Challanger keyboards 6 months or so the first one died, got another it is on its way out as well with keys beginning to stick or not work.
Had many other keyboards as well die or not so much die but do to issues with keys that dont respond unless pressed many times etc become essentially a pain in the backside to use.
Now thats not to say i didnt like the above 3 keyboards just rubber dome types just dont last for me they never have.
what hilarious is the old PS/2 IBM mechanical i had it still works as good as the day it was made but the plug has had it after all this time that and it looks grungy lol.
I just chalk it up to the fact nothing is really made to last anymore its all disposable.
None of the keyboards I've ever owned ever really become completely broken. The worst I've ever had happened was some keys doesn't work without extra force after a few years but that's more likely dirt, drink spills and food crumbs accumulating underneath. I'm on my keyboard everyday for extended hours because of job, school and games. This is like people complaining about every car they owned including the Prius gets bad mileage. Maybe the problem is you.
