Low price, low quality, but works for the first year
Installed in summer 2020 in a laptop I use about 30-50 hours per week.In 2021, the paint had slightly worn-off a few of the keys.Now, in Dec. 2022, the paint is fully worn-off of the "N" and "M" keys. The "E" and "I" keys are popping-out and I have to either push them back in, or superglue their key pads (what your finger touches) to their island stands they press-on.One pleasant surprise: This keyboard backlight is brighter than OEM, and is dimmable same as OEM.Installation is as laborious as any other Macbook Pro keyboard installation video you've watched.Overall: it's inexpensive and not OEM - you have to expect that this keyboard sucks compared to Apple's keyboard. But it does work, for a while, and it's awesome not paying Apple's exorbitant prices to have a working keyboard.

Great value
It had 1 or 2 spots that did not fit my MacBook correctly. I had to force it and man handle it a bit but got it to fit finally. It feels like the quality of the keys is crappy but if you want a financially easy option, that’s not a big deal. Backlight works well. Letters have not scratched off. So it has quality just feels a bit soft.

Customer Service While Acknowledging a Return Due to Defect
My first keyboard came and I did the complete replacement, only to find that the ribbon cable connector was lacking the blue film that is usually on it. Because of this, it was not able to seat properly in its receiving port on the logic board. I was able to return it and the new one was delivered in 2 days or so (right after I shipped the old one back to them). Bummed about the wasted time of the first install, but stoked that they acknowledged the problem so quickly. Thank you. My Mac is up and running again.

Piece of Crap- Don't buy!
I really got excited when it arrived. I popped it in my Macbook and everything seems legit until I started to use it. The right arrow key would not work. That was the only key that wouldn't work. Amazon decided to replace it because it was defective but the second replacement was even worse. None of the number keys and half of the keyboard was inoperable to include the power button. The first keyboard came with screws and the second did not. Also the second one seems as though it was used. I really wanted for this work but I guess I will have to go back to the drawing board. I'm returning both for a refund. Don't waste your time. Don't buy. NOT RECOMMENDED!

Mostly works, some issues
I installed this keyboard on my Macbook Pro Retina 15" Mid-2015. It works, with the exception of the caps lock indicator. The backlight is very dim, a fraction as bright as the original. I also had to purchase screws from another vendor - the ones included didn't fit the holes left after removing the factory-original pins holding the keyboard in place. If you find yourself in this situation, these are the screws that worked for me: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E1T2I3M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Works perfectly
I bought this to replace a liquid damaged keyboard.Glad I chose the one with the backlight because after opening up the mbp (macbookpro) in need of repair, part of the original backlight was stuck to the keyboard (no wonder those keys were sticking!).The replacement process took around 6 hours, and removing the tiny rivets that hold the original keyboard took some time, as did replacing them with the 100 included flea sized screws but the patience was worth at and mbp is good as new!All buttons working, backlight working.Thank you seller!

Perfect fit. Not an easy job to install
This is definitely a lot of work to swap out. You have to remove everything to get at the keyboard. The original is held in by rivits so those have to be popped out to get the screws in. Not an easy job to get out and a ton of micro screws to put in to get it back together. There’s no tool to pop the rivits so you have to get creative. If you have a few hours and a lot of patience you can save a ton. There are videos on YouTube that help.
