I've had this board for the better part of a decade. It's an overall solid TKL that's been very reliable. My biggest gripe with it is the rubbery coating on the case and how much it attracts dust. The switches have also definitely seen better days and were in need of a good cleaning. I ended up replacing them with some vintage MX blacks sourced from a 1988 Wyse WY60. It was missing half of its keycaps and had a cracked case so I don't feel too bad about shucking it.

The rubber sanded off pretty easily making the case smooth bare plastic. I used some 'hammertone' paint to get a nice even texture on what little surface area of the case there is.
