  • ThereminGoat has a review of them here

  • If they aren’t HipyoTech’s favorite switch he coulda fooled me

I’d give them a sold A to A- for being buttery-smooth with an under-stated clack. As factory lubed switches go, these are some of the better ones if not quite the best. They have a heavier spring than Smoothies, and just a little lighter than Black Sesames. At least with the batches I have I’d say their factory lubing is a bit better than that of the Black Sesames, but not quite as good as the Smoothies; a few of mine were a little slimy but they were all smooth. I’d say the bottom-out is more mellow / less harsh than either of the other two.

As an aside, I love how of all the switches Haimu made during their initial rise, the one named after an Italian still-life painter (whom I’d somehow never heard of in my many art history courses) became one of if not the most enduringly popular.

My WS Morandi set is still in its bag. They are good switches but squeaks too much for me. I had better result with Gateron Smoothie so recommend Smoothie over Morandi if you’re squeak sensitive like me.

I can also recommend Gateron Pro Ultra Glory Red switches. They don’t stand out but are well made and reliable. Gateron Mars looks good also. Very similar.
