On my 21.5 iMac, the RETURN key suddenly stopped working. Feels right physically but no action when pressed. Pulled the key off & crushed out a little bit of dust & a few hairs but still no go. Any ideas? Bought unit in Dec 2014, running latest Mojave OS, if that matters. Thank you

Replacement keyboards are inexpensive. You do not necessarily have to replace the keyboard with a genuine Apple model as that will set you back double compared to others. Check Amazon.com for a replacement keyboard.

OP has an iMac keyboard that has a "goofy" Return key.
My Das has no problems whatsoever.

Sorry toMACsh, my oops, and I just got you confused with the OP and thought they were the ones replying.

PS: I understand that both the Das and Matias make some excellent keyboards.
