Steelseries Merc Stealth any good?

[SuddenlyConor]

Ok so right now the Merc stealth's price is $40 and i have been wanting it for a while but i have read very mixed reviews it is either like a 5 STAR BEST KEYBOARD or it is like 1 STAR SUCKS NEVER BUY IT and i am confused if you can find another gaming keyboard for $40 that is better than the merc that would be great.

I've owned, used and abused a Merc Stealth for the past 4 years roughly. Over those 4 years, I've used it nearly every single day on some sort of gaming activity. It STILL runs like a champ. My only minor complaint is the lack of a dedicated DELETE key. I believe it shares the "1" key on the numeric keyboard. I like the multi-colored brightness adjustable back lighting too. I bought it for just over $100 and haven't regretted it yet. $40.00 is a steal, I say buy it.
