GAME CHANGER

This key switch puller is an absolute game changer. I cannot tell you how many times I've accidentally destroyed a perfectly good switch using the traditional switch pullers that I've come to know and hate. It snaps right down on the switch, easily pulls off, and the button(looks like a switch but it's not) at the top easily ejects the switch without any damage. This will save you some serious finger pain, headache, time and switches. If you're on the fence, just buy it. I promise it's worth the pricetag.

what an upgrade over basic switch pullers! No more RSI

NOTE: This switch puller is meant for keyboards that have Hot Swap Sockets, or in cases where you've already desoldered the pins from the PCB, and just need to remove them from the mounting plate. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, PLEASE USE CAUTION. Don't ruin your $100 corsair keyboard by using too much force.PRO:-reduced wrist stress: 100+ key switch pulls without pain vs doing 2 rows and needing a break? Gimme this tool.-grips switch for you, so you can focus on removing delicately without damaging pins.-lots of surface area, so your hand can get a good grip while you wiggle the switch out of the socket.CON (there aren't any, I'm picking nits):-price feels steep for being fairly mechanically simple. If this were $15-20 I'd feel better than $30+-it isn't immediately obvious how to use this tool. My first impulse was to push on the key cap on top, only to feel a click. I was worried I broke something. NOPE.If it would be helpful, I can record a video of how to use this tool. Just send a comment / reply and let me know.

Better than most but still scratched my keyboard

Much better than most switch pullers. Still scratched my keyboard... Used a small piece of modeling sandpaper to smoothe it out and it was great after that.

Turns the worst part into the best

I don't swap out the switches in keyboards too often - maybe once a year or less. When I do, the worst part of the process in my opinion is pulling the actual switches out of the keyboard. It gives me the most finger fatigue and seems like part of the process most prone to breaking switches, if you put too much force on the tab or pull at the wrong angle. I was skeptical when I ran across this and felt it was probably overpriced, but was willing to splurge on the chance that it would really improve things.You can see the five stars, so you already know the answer: this thing is amazing. You loosely position it over the switch and then press down, which triggers a mechanism to close the prongs on the switch, securing it and depressing the tab. Lift up (not much force required) and the switch comes out, nicely secured to the barrel. Depress the button and the switch releases. It's nearly effortless and makes the process incredibly fast and easy. You don't need to remove all of the keycaps around the switch you're pulling, the barrel is pretty narrow and fits easily.If you plan to only swap out switches on a keyboard once and think you might never do it again in your life, just stick with the usual tweezer-style switch remover that probably came with your keyboard or switches. Once you're done and started shopping for your next keyboard, and/or find yourself reading about other switches, acknowledge that you've fallen into the rabbit hole like the rest of us and buy this. Your fingers will thank you.Fun fact: the button to release the switch is a Gateron-styled switch, itself, and the button you depress is a standard keycap that can be replaced with any MX-style keycap (although when I tested, it was tighter to remove my standard keycap than it was to remove the keycap that came with the switch puller).I can't recommend this highly enough. I only wish Amazon had stocked the versions with the red or blue barrels when I bought mine, to further add to the fun of using it.

Works!

I was skeptical because of some of the bad reviews and how deceptively easy it looked. But it really does work. I have a couple of keyboards where the switches are really hard to get out using the dinky switch puller that came with them. This solved that problem. It took me only ~5 min to remove all the switches off of my TKL keyboard. Hopefully it holds up.

Don’t do a single Keeb reswitch until you get this.

Worth the price? Do I need water to live?The only downside I’ve had is that some switch types don’t want to eject with a pop. If yours are not, rotate it 90* to check first. Oh and sure, once in awhile on a real tight keeb plate you have to attempt it more than once, but it will get it!Never again am I not using one. I could lose this one and have ten other pullers sitting around and I’d just wait on shipping for my next Gateron puller.

this thing is worth every penny. Makes pulling and swapping switches totally effortless.

Complete waste of $35

If you want a switch puller that doesn't work, get this one. The mechanism came broken in mine and there's no way to grab or release the switch. So now I just have a nice looking piece of plastic and metal. Oh and they are sure to have a "void" sticker appear once you open the box.
