These are probably my favourite keycaps I've tried so far. Not too shill too hard for this specific company - but I'm a big fan of the way these feel - feel really well made for the price, and look pretty good.

Other than the actual profile (which apparently is the same as XVX profile), these are finished really nicely with more rounded off edges. The space bar is the most obvious for this since the front edge where your thumb rests is pretty rounded off, making the space bar super comfortable even without flipping it around.

I compared these against a set of dagaladoo XVX profile keycaps - https://www.amazon.com/Keycaps-Keyboard-Profile-Switches-Mechanical/dp/B0B4JTCG4J, and I noticed two main differences. First, the edges don't feel as rounded off/comfortable (but no harsher than any average set of keycaps). Second, they seem to sit just a bit higher on the switch stems than the lavacaps. Im not sure if thats a profile thing or just the way the Lavacaps are made, but I like that the Lavacaps sit a tiny bit lower (I got the KDA keycaps because they aren't very tall).

Overall a big fan - I'm hoping more colours are made available for this brand.

Keyboards are RK84 and IK75 V5.
