It's a pretty standard board. It just comes with plate foam and a silicone insert on the bottom. I wish it had more foam options or something, but for clearance price it was a good deal. I would never spend full price on it as it has a basic mounting style and doesn't really look that premium. I haven't typed on it at all yet as it's on a PC that I don't use as much, but from what I've used I prefer my tiger80 tbh. The selling point is at $150 it comes with everything you need except keycaps, other than that I would avoid the NK87 unless you love the shape and exact color.
If someone is debating spending $300 on the NK87, please don't. Just save up $100 more and buy a mode sonnet as it is so much more premium. If you NEED a TKL, then browse r/mechmarket and buy a mode eighty (I got one for $300 with switches and an extra plate).
Just my two cents you never really asked for. Whatever you have, just love what you have.
