K95 Platinum Spacebar Rattle-Refund or Exchange?
I recently noticed that my K95 Platinum (Brown switches) spacebar is inconsistent; rock solid on the right end, but wobbly on the left. I would shoot a video of it, but there is no need seeing as I have the exact same problem as someone else in the video linked below. If I exchange it, how likely am I to get another one with the same issue? I really like this keyboard, but the spacebar shouldn't be this inconsistent for the price.

Shouldn't happen on a brand new unit. That usually happens when the stabilizer is faulty or damaged. Please exchange the keyboard.
Just got my replacement, and this one is even worse. The stabilizers on both ends are rattly/wobbly, as opposed to just the one on the left.
All my peripherals and half of my PC components are Corsair, so it's a shame I don't have any luck with the keyboards. A solid spacebar was the last thing I thought I would need to worry about on such an expensive product, but alas.
I have always found that the space bars have all had a bit of a rattle. Same thing with the shift keys as well. I assumed this was since the keys were longer and a bit more difficulty to properly stabilize.
