Maybe membrane keys have evolved since I tried it in 2006.......
i don't think membrane have a place anymore
Hell, there are options in the same price segment with 500 to 1000Hz polling rates. I won't be surprised if this piece of outright shit suffers from lose domes.
BTW, this brand is from Poland, and that same board currently costs <$13 over there(~45PLN). If it comes to Polish brands, I'd have more trust in Modecom with their myriad of rebranded Chinese devices. At least they started doing proper QA before putting garbage on store shelves (which saves them lots of time and money on potential RMA floods afterwards). Logitech G15? Oldies from A4Tech? Almost all legendary gaming boards from pre-2010 era?
Mechanical boards only made a comeback in recent years, and you can still get a decent "membranical" gaming board that'll get the job done, but that's definitely not one of those keyboards.
