Anyone got experience with Ducky keyboards? (sopuli.xyz)

For some reason or another, a whole third of all mechanical keyboards in the biggest local computer retailer's online store, are Ducky. Probably because they have ISO and ANSI layouts, a lot of colors, different sizes, and different switches. And they're ordered from abroad when bought, not stocked locally. So loads of choice and no cost showing them as available.

So since my only real options here if I want a full keyboard or TKL with blue switches are a couple of different Ducky models (one 3, Shine 7) in various colors, I'm wondering if anyone has personal experience with Ducky? I've read both praise and hate online, so can't really make heads or tails of the quality.

Ive had one once, decently solid keyboard IIRC. Its been years since i had one though (like, 2017) and it was my first foray into mechanical keyboards outside of corsair, so i don't/didn't have technical knowledge to describe it. no idea if the quality is still good now or if there's anything sketchy with software or firmware.
