How was your experience with kbdfans products and services?
I've had good experiencing when buying from them. I can't comment on their assembly services though, but I haven't heard bad things.
I'm currently using the NIU by KBDfans.

ive been eyeing on NIU as well, how is it? good?
Yes, I'm very happy with it! It is my first ortholinear keyboard, so I can't really compare it to the Planck. I chose the full aluminum version and was actually expecting the aluminum base to be hollow, so I was planning to put some shelf liner to dampen the sound, but it turns out the bottom piece is actually a solid piece of aluminum and I don't think there would even be enough space for the shelf liner :P But yea, the solid aluminum base adds some really nice weight to the keyboard. Obviously, having the aluminum base means that I can't really take advantage of the RGB underglow, but that doesn't bother me. As for software, it uses QMK, so that's awesome. Overall, it's a great keyboard.
