The ugliest enter key in history?

Judge for yourself. Is this the ugliest enter key ever made? Made by Amstrad (of course xD).

Yowch! That's pretty awful. I'd hate to see the fugly mutha that could beat that!
There's definitely some super obese ones out there which I despise. Expect to see those show their extended arses to meet your challenge! (But not posted by me. I simply won't allow them in my collection.)

I... think you win. No way anyone can beat that.

I like stepped keys. I would prefer that one to some of the giant flat Enters that I have seen.

This one might be close from my
Cherry Capacitive terminal keyboard known as the "Next" key:

What I find especially appaling about this is that it is in the middle between two rows.

That's a not uncommon shape of enter key on old keyboards, some Hall effect boards have that as well. It's not actively repulsive in my opinion though, tbh - unlike the Amstrad's.

Wow, that takes the cake. Worst of both worlds if you ask me.

You know what? I just checked, and it appears to not even be completely in the middle either

No comparison!

How about the French ISO enter on my M0110:

It's bad. But it also has a beauty to it. So chunky but so slim! That's a wee woodland elves' keyboard if I ever saw it. Those fancy buggers would use ISO after all…

Yep, it's a strange one for sure. You know Apple made it work any way they saw fit in 1984.
