Packaging

The box for the 700K was actually larger than I expected, not really with its length but with the width. This did give Cougar room to put a large angled photo of the keyboard across the front. Beyond that there is a small feature list down along the bottom, standard Cougar and 700K branding, and a badge for their UIX software as well. Around on the back we have another photo of the keyboard but this time they have highlighted key features with lines and short descriptions. Next to that there are photos of other key features, especially things you can’t see from the outside of the keyboard like the ARM processor built in, aluminum back plate, and the key switch types.

When I dug into the packaging I was finally able to see why the box was larger than most other keyboards. A lot of the manufactures just slide the wrist rest up under the keyboard but Cougar has it features in a thick foam padding just like the keyboard. The thick padding also adds to the thickness of the box as well but it protects the 700K a lot more than what most other keyboard manufactures do with their keyboards. Along with the keyboard and wrist rest you also get a small manual and a few Cougar stickers in orange, orange and black, and just black.
