Hi. Is it me or on PC keyboards are space bars getting weaker and weaker?. This is always the first thing to brake or at least get loose and cant put back in right. Ive had this keyboard for only about 2 month and the sapce bar has come loose already and i try and take it out and put back in but its made it worse lol. My keyboard is

Microsoft Sidewinder X4 Keyboard So its a fairly decent keybaord but still the space bar seems to be weak as any other cheaper keyboards.

I never had any problems with dedicated keyboards, and I had the same model you have. But ever since i have my laptop the space bar is awful.

Sidewinder X4 was my main keyboard, until a few weeks ago, space bar is fine. Guess every product, no matter how good it is, is going to fail for someone.

I have never had any problem with the space bar on ANY keyboard, even the cheapest ones.

Never had a problem with a keyboard either.  Think you must have just been unlucky.

Same, cheap keyboard with no problems other than letters wearing off. Mine's been going closer to 5 years though.

I have a basic Microsoft model which I got 8 years ago. Never had a problem with it.
