Overview
The Gateron Quinn is a tactile switch with a full nylon top and bottom housing and a POM stem. Its defining trait is a tactile bump early in the keypress, giving a rounded, moderate tactility often compared to Gateron's Baby Kangaroo rather than a sharp, aggressive bump.
The all-nylon construction gives a deeper, more resonant sound than many tactile switches. It ships pre-lubed and is generally described as usable stock, with films and extra lube optional for developing the sound.

This was my first thocky tactile, so it carries some nostalgia (haha). But the tactility is strong and it makes a solid sound, so I genuinely like it — the only downside is that it's a little pricey. A metal case with a metal plate on an HMKB was the strongest combo; because the tactility is strong, putting it on a clacky board works too, and mounting it on a thocky board to enjoy the clatter is fun as well. The price is about the only caveat.
