- Thanks for he awesome keyboard. From work to gaming, many multitudes of business and recreational trips, this is hands-down the best keyboard I've ever owned. Tough to let it go finally.

I cannot express how happy I feel finally finding someone who expresses the same feeling as me. I used this keyboard ever since I was 5 years old. That was 2006. Still use it to this day. It has used so much that all the keys are worn down and feel glossy, some of the icons are gone already.
it is 2018 and i'm still using it
Same lol only thing that I didn't ever upgrade
Is it good for gaming ?
Zakariya Karkouri
I game on mine no problem.
Same here
Thank you guys, funny thing is i'll start building my setup around this keyboard lol
Totally agree. I have had mine since 2006, 13 years and still the best keyboard.
owowowo 🙄

@@nagendravicky999 Mine is DELL RT7D50
I think it is not available now
Typing this comment in 2018 with this dell sk-8115! I laughed because this really is the best thing dell has made. My dad picked it up in 2004 along with a brand new dell desktop (with intel pentium and 1 gb ram of course) and used it for a few years. But then it sat in a box for nearly a decade before I went to college and I took it with me because I needed a keyboard. I've found myself not wanting to get rid of it and can't find a good reason to. I've used it myself for years and it still won't die. I was about to buy a new corsair keyboard for $100+ but I just can't say goodbye to this thing yet.
Now that I've realized how special it is, I am going to clean it and take extremely good care of this thing and try to squeeze all the life it can get. The spacebar is a little squeaky and I might need to re-lube some of the keys. But literally, there are no areas where the plastic rubbed off or faded, all the keys work and feel great, and aside from dust and random debris, there are no blemishes. Even the stickers on the bottom of it are still on and the serial number sticker has yet to be removed. And it's been with us for most of my lifetime.
It's the best keyboard for me hands down. This thing was (and still is) THE golden standard in terms of bundled keyboards, you'd see them literally everywhere, at school, at the office, at the receptionist desk of your dentist, etc... it was a cheap and simple design that felt damn good to type on compared to today's awful chiclet style keyboards. Disclaimer: I also own a wired full-size Apple keyboard from around 2013, I think it's decent, tactile feedback was pretty firm, but nowhere near comparable to this one. Apple used to make pretty good keyboards before introducing the ridiculous butterfly switch keyboards.
Not to mention the oversized space bar is something you can't just live without after using it for a while because it's just so comfortable to rest your thumb on. I've been trying mechanical keyboards for a while, even nearly bought the Logitech G610, but just couldn't get used to the tiny space bar.
This thing is a true classic, I've had them since the days of the floppy disk and I'm still using it on my latest-gen gaming PC. I've owned several that have since died of old age; I bought a brand new one just recently to replace my ailing one.
it's 2022 and I'm still using it. it is a very good keyboard
Still using mine in 2021. Luckily I have 3 more if it should ever stop working. I love this keyboard so much.
Me to! ^w^
This version was manufactured in January 2007 by Darfon Electronics, as determined by the UL File Number of E206453 on the rear label. Additionally, the model of DFN-L100(B) is given below a MIC certification logo. The controller chip is sourced from Holtek.
Mine has been going for a good 10 years now, using it daily... and it still works perfectly. It even has all the paint still on it. It just seems indestructible.
Price
And the keys can be easily cleaned.I remember washing them every 2 months.
I have the same 10 year old Dell keyboard and It is my favorite membrane keyboard. The curved keys are very comfortable to type on, and somehow very satisfying to type on. Plus it has drainage holes if you spill a water on it! I know these keyboards are still very common in schools and offices, but I guess there is a reason for that, because I haven't seen any signs of my keyboard dying yet. Its a shame that Dell discontinued these keyboards because the new Dell keyboards suck...
same
I'm still using mine and loving it. It is not mechanical nor backlit, but it just works and its pretty moddable. Changed the leds for blue ones, painted the shell black, removed the dell logo, covered the hand rest first in leather and later in carbon fibre vinyl. Love it.
2020 Still using it... Love this keyboard...
same here :P
I have the same style but black and silver with Bluetooth and it's also my daily driver. It's super comfortable and smooth. Great video 💯
This is my son's favorite keyboard, he won't use any mechanical keyboard. even the US Gove, at least in the navy bases I work in uses these Dell L100 Keyboards with/without smart card inputs.
had one since 2002, and im still using it till this day (even to write this comment)
^I'm not im
Hey, that's my keyboard!
One of the best keyboards!
I just bought one of these for $6 at a flea market. Great keyboard. Very responsive and I love the spacing of the keys.
I keep coming back to this video from time to time and I don't know why but it always makes me bit emotional. I remember owning one of these when I got my first own pc back in 2008.
Still using DELL SK-8115 since 2005 and i change 5 PC since then on this same keyboard, 15 years keyborad and 5 PCs! This keyboard is monster!
I still have mine, still working great ~ This is really one of the best dell products ~ Love it ~
I own 3 mechanical keyboards. I have yet to find one better than the Dell. I've been a system admin for years. At my last shop everyone was shocked when out of all the split, recessed keyboards they have I grabbed the Dell. I buy every one I find from thrift stores. I have an un-opened one in a box. Mark my words, in 20 years it will be worth a fortune.
I have a brand new, unopened one as well and agree ! I also have 2 refurbished ones ready to go but I cannot seem to wear this one out. They are incredible.
Still using mine from maybe 2007.
I've been using it all the time, and gaming/sitting on my PC often. (not gonna lie, several hours a day.)
I've had this keyboard since XP and all the way through Windows 10. I'm finally retiring it and getting a new Dell keyboard with some extra media keys on it. They make the best keyboards in my opinion and I can't justify spending close to 100 dollars on a "gaming" keyboard just to be able to have RGB lighting. The Dell ones always represent the best value and they always look the most stealthy.
+Angel Christov right now im using the logtiech wave, its really good if you want some multi media keys
What keyboard you bought ?
I used to think that way till I tested new mechanical keyboards......
Angel Christov you didn't realize that those 100 dollar Keyboard have Mechanical switches. Tries it and you will change your mind completely. I had been through a cherry mx blue and it blow my mind over a new dell chiclet I used to have.
I Miss My DELL keyboard now it is serving my grandparents with their PC
hehe the keyboard is back withme and now I am using it again! 😀
They use those keyboards at my school lol
Dell has the best accessories, but not the best PC's!
+MrNoobMan no Logitech and corsair
Zach - ROBLOX and Tech ikr. dells pcs suck, but their accessories are reasonable
EliteSushiHD their Keyboard are not the best anymore. All dell rubberdome are quite mushy and not comfortable. Dell used to made a decent keyboard like AT101 or quietkey. At least with some dome slider might make a difference.
their pcs last forever...like ever.
duh, of course apple has the best pcs
still have mine 16 years later
yes yes...totally agree. looking for one at the moment. I might even buy two. hope they continue making them. never experienced a keyboard like this one. thumbs up all the way
I bough one (used of course) yesterday. After disassembly/cleaning looks like new.
I was using an RT 7D20 for about 10 years. Rather than spend an hour or two cleaning it, I first bought a cheap "gaming" keyboard, but it was hopeless so I ordered an expensive mechanical one, with clicky "Blue" keys. It was nice to use, but still much slower and less accurate than the old Dell. Then yesterday that fancy board just died, so it was off to my storage room to dig up the Dell. Now, after an hour of cleaning, it's working perfectly, much faster and more accurate. The partially cut away "Caps Lock" key is simply essential for my flying forefinger. This may be the last keyboard I'll ever need...
I've used this keyboard since 2006, using it right now to type this. It's simple but It's a beast and truly one of the best things Dell ever made.
I'm using it in 2023😀
Just ordered one of these. I use a DROP CTRL daily, but I kinda just want a simple Dell business keyboard for a while.
2020, Still using this, Gonna switch over to Mechanical soon, good memories with the membrane keyboard
Should’ve just lubed it instead of buying a mechanical. Sounds way better than any switch out there.
I had this keyboard and I don't find it anywhere. it was the best keyboard
I wish they made these still
Picked one of these up in almost new condition from a thrift store for 6 bucks. Its the second one I own.
How dare you put into words what I wanted to say about the best keyboard ever
I have the D60 version, almost the same, only the card reader is bigger. That thing is so dang baller, it sounds and feels so good to type on, I cannot express it in words, it feels on the level if not better than some cherry brown keyboards that cost so much more. (They be selling for 3€ all the time, I wish I could buy all of them, yet I never needed another one, somehow the keys haven't even faded)
Hands down the best keyboard truly. I bring this keyboard to every job and people look at me like I'm crazy hahahahahah.
Still using this keyboard to date (2022). Have been keeping it despite getting new computers and I type alot! Good keyboard.
2023 checking in here, this comment typed on the tried and true L100. This ones been in use since the early 2000's easily. Quite literally the only thing to remain after multiple builds, mice, monitors, headsets, hell even desks and chairs! Not generally a fan of Dell, but this keyboard is a golden egg.
I have the older version of that keyboard, pretty f-ing epic
its 2021 and im still using mine
dude i just found one of these brand new in its sealed box for $5...feels great and i didn't have to file for bankruptcy for a mechanical keyboard.
You can a Unicomp for around 90 dollars. Way better than any other mechanical keyboard you can get.
Good for you man, I used to have one of these keyboards from 2003 i believe and i have to admit it was the best keyboard i have ever had but i lost it after i moved so i was forced to buy a new keyboard, (its a logitech k360)
Mines still going strong lmao.
100% agree with this guy!! Still using one of these.. bought around 3 of em and never regretted doing so.. the keys are well balanced and spaced high up and very responsive
When I was in high school I have been trying to look for this. Agree with you, perfect keyboard that has been made for pc
i found one brand new in one of my dad's old collection, using it right now!
i have the same one been using it since 2005 the button feel great on these while typing
got one from school surplus, was probably sitting in storage for at least 3 years, and hear i am 4 years later, so this thing is at least 7-8 years old and going on strong. No intentions of upgrading!
this is the only thing i have to game with and with a matching mouse
my grandpa just gave me his Dell keaboard and its this one
also i used this on his pc for YEARS
after years of using these for work i finally got one for personal use for 5 dollars. Cant wait to try gaming on it
I am typing this using one, it is REALLY solid
I used this keyboard until just the other day when it sadly broke. Unfortunately I have to get a new keyboard now, and I wish I could stick with this one, but you have to move on.
im in love with it too!
I still have the silver edged version of that dell keyboard since 2004, and I bought a new keyboard,and it has the same design. That shows that Dell thinks "If it isn't broken, don't fix it."
3+ years ago got one used like new... and i'm still using it. Bought another one, just in case..... i can't really tell the case :) . Absolutelly wonderfull. Love the feeling of the keys, and perhaps would try a mech keyboard.
indeed, one of the few Dell products that deserved to be bought.
I have to agree. This is a great keyboard. I still have one. This is probably also the keyboard I have seen in the most places. I’ve seen this thing just about everywhere. I think I may’ve even seen it possibly in movies or TV shows.
It's so common, so inexpensive, and just awesome. When you think "office keyboard" you think of the dell sk-8115
yeah i just ordered this same keyboard because
of the shap i was wondering if i should paint it pink
or keep it black becuase i dont want to mess it up i had a mechanical
just stop working i thought keyboards suppose to
keep working can someone tell me why mechanical stop
working ?
one of the best keyboards to type on and game on
found it for 3 bucks at a local goodwill and he is not lying it is amazing
deng best keyboard, im still typing with it right now. was thinking to buy mechanical keyboard, but the dell keyboard still working fine almost a decade. shoutout to the dell guy. if dell make mechanical keyboard i would probably straight buy it haha lol
Ahmad Talib Ab Rahman Dell's Alienware department does make a mechanical keyboard but sadly it uses the cheaper Kailh switches rather than Cherry MX. If you want a true Dell Mechanical keyboard, get a Dell Bigfoot with Alps switches which are delightful btw
Had that before I got my mechanical. Definitely not bad as far as pack-in keyboards go, miles ahead of the HP stock keyboards.
KineticIsEpic is that dell keyboard a membrane or mechanical?
@@kaitlyncho4242it's a membrane rubber dome
It feels ridiculously nice to just type with. Such a masterpiece and i used it to create this throwaway sentence.
Pretty much any goodwill you go to has a bunch of them
Still using that keyboard, had two of them and wore the other out. Tried using other keyboards but they just don't feel right.
Ah the legendary Dell SK-8115 . A keyboard you always go back to when all hope is lost. The difference between mechanical keyboards and Dell SK-8115 , the Dell will always keep working. Your mechanical keyboard will develop a fault within couple of years. I salute this keyboard for being the best modern alternative with full travel keys, exceptional soft feeling, very smooth and linear to type. No silly LED's, no stupid media keys, no idiotic price tags and most of all no gaming tags. Sure it would be even better if each row is higher like in the old IBM M models but hey, can't have it all. The 6KRO is enough for any type of games. I noticed it's getting harder and harder to find these keyboard for sale. So R.I.P Dell SK-8115 and know you have special place in my heart.
Mechs are way more durable lmao
Rabble Rouser lmao I know right? Until the controller packs up after 1, 2 years of use or random keys start repeating. Remember it's rated 50 million that VVVVV way but about 1000 that >>>>>> way. The reviews says it all. By the way I'm back on Dell again. Running modded rubber dome sk8115 with MX red feel. Very light force required to register. img1.picserver.eu/10000005054/001.jpg
lol butthurt you spilled mountain dew on your shitty razer board
+Rabble Rouser Mechanical keyboards are not more durable than this keyboard. If you prefer mechanical keyboards for typing then that's reasonable because most people do. But I have an sk8115 that has lasted something like 10 years. No problems with it whatsoever. Most mechanical keyboards won't last that long because there are so many moving parts. It's so, so easy to fuck up a mechanical switch. Fuck up pulling off a keycap? might snap your stem. Switches also jam and stick fairly often. On the other hand, this keyboard is nothing more complicated than a pcb and a sheet of flexible rubber.
Its not at ALL easy to damage a switch, I replace caps constantly and have never once broken a switch. A mech keyboard can be EASILY repaired by anyone with a soldering iron who isnt completely incompetent. These dell boards are great for those who are technologically illiterate though. My switches never jam or stick because I'm not filthy.
I have two now. One for the first one goes bad. I use to at my office taking calls and it's just a good solid keyboard. I have some $200.00 keyboards and this one is just as good to me.
2020 still using it.
WHATS THE MODEL NUMBER ?????????????
I have a same shaped one from Dell but with a a volume control nob on it, very awesome
Yes very comfortable.
built my linux machine. Got this left over keyboard from my school at no cost. It is amazing.
After this review, I got one (and came close to getting 10 - -hey, an eBay deal is an eBay deal). I like it. the key surface area is a little on the small side, but it's good. Thanks!
When i saw this keyboard 2 years ago, since then i am searching for this keyboard on the internet but no luck.
I just got one off ebay
This was indeed a truly awesome keyboard.
I'll miss mine.
Does that same keyboard still function in 2022?
I have a similar dell keyboard and thought it was time to upgrade, so I went out to try some mechanical keyboards and was underwhelmed.
Actually it felt harder to type because the travel distance for the keys was shorter and the keys bottomed out quickly and my hands were getting tired.
I think whatever keyboard is best for you is whatever you're used to. And better gaming performance depends not on peripherals but your brain lol.
Ok I don't know why but this keyboard is everywhere, I had like 5 different versions of the Omnis them and I used them for pretty much my whole childhood. It's a good membrane keyboard but I started using a model m now.
I still own mine in 2020.
And I'm still using it on my main setup.
I also love how it sounds.
you should mention the model of it
Late to the party but I still see people replying.
Does anyone know if they still make these ?
its 2020nand im still using one
Numeric Enter is not working. Is there any lock for that?
We need a releauch
I use that keyborad for gami mg in 2021
They should come up with a new version. Probably just a bit heavier and with a more solid feel.
this maybe not the best keyboard but hey its durable, and also I got it for free when purchasing a monitor at my local Computer Store, the keyboard I got was Dell SK-8115 it still works fine but I plan to replace it with other keyboard because i need more sensitive more, softer key so I can type faster and precise
My Alt keys just stopped working after like 10 years of HEAVY HEAVY use. I'm legitimately afraid of the bullshit im gonna have to go through while buying a keyboard that has 8 million light modes.
Still using mine in 2021. The new Dell/HP keyboards now use flatter keys and they are terrible.
I still have mine and one in the closet! LOVE THIS KEYBOARD! You went to MAC? Oh My!
I m using it till now 2020
WHATS THE MODEL NUMBER ?????????????
My bro has the same keyboard
Brother
totally agree
im still using this with my sleeper pc xD
You guys can have your RGB Razer mechanical keyboard, but my Dell SK-8115 will always be the best. It is clicky, it feels nice, and it games perfectly.
It's 2019 and still using so strong
i've got two of those. one is black and the other grey. i'm typing on the grey one rigth now.
I believe its by Holtek. Model L100
Woo its that old, im usin that keyboard right now
