Working Nicely
So far, great. AF seems to hunt at times, but I'm new to photography and Pentax so maybe that's me. The item's in very fine shape, and everything on it is fully functional.

Solid keyboard, does the job I was looking for, technically.
Pros: Well lit, all keys get good lighting and you will be able to see all the keys in dark environments and that was what I set out to buy. Solid, heavy keyboard which seems to be well made, with materials that look nice and feel right.
Cons: It wants you to download a program to use features. I think you have to download that to set your color preferences, etc. The keyboard works without the program but the keyboard color changes constantly by the second(s). That can be distracting. I'm old, I'd like a simple button to push through color alternatives and would prefer avoiding unnecessary additional programs on my computer.
The keys are heavy, tall, and require solid pressure to work. I went from a smaller keyboard with lower set keys requiring less effort to press down, to this; if testing at the store, I'm not sure I make the purchase because of this type of key and needing the program to stop the alternating lights.
Also, a little light sensitivity from the leds. Some colors, say yellow, seem to be strong, and when looking at the computer screen, the bright yellow can dominate the lower eye areas.

Great camera at a great price.
What I like: Detail in pictures. Ease of use, menus, buttons. Solid feel in hands. Battery life not as bad as expected. Two memory slots.
What I dislike: Seems dated tech-wise, moving from touch screen style phones to this seems I don't know, think 4k to 740p?. Auto-focus behaves oddly. I'm still learning but at times I can't understand why it focused on what it did.
Here are a few very amateur pictures taken with the K3-II. I'd say they can offer you an idea of what a rookie can do with this camera.
