I received my KN01 last week and have been using it since. These are all my personal opinions and I'm sure others will disagree.

It indeed does not wobble. Very happy with that.
Feels solid and well made.
For me it's just too big. This should come as no surprise as the dimensions were not a secret, but I didn't foresee just how huge it would feel on my desk.
A little indent on top like the "other" knob that wobble would have been nice. Maybe a little knurling on the sides?
The button press feels a little too stiff to me. It takes more effort than I find comfortable.

Maybe the next iteration will be closer to what I'm after. In the meantime, it delivers on not wobbling which was the greatest failing of the competition. Can't complain about the quality.

Got mine a couple weeks ago and couldn’t agree more. Build quality is on point, buttery smooth actuation, zero wobble. I personally love the size of it and use it for volume and play/pause. Would be perfection if the button was less mushy and ..more clicky feeling.
