I think most people would say that it runs in tiers. My personal list, after spending some time on these forums and a few other places, are like this:

Filco
Leopold
Ducky (Shine II)

Then

Keycool 87
CM Quickfire Rapid
Plum 87

Those are, in my opinion, the most common and probably most worthwhile tenkeyless. I could be wrong though. Other brands that have some clout are HPE and Noppoo, and I'm sure more Asian brands I can't remember.

WASD is coming out with a tenkeyless sometime in the next few months, and that should be a very good keyboard.

Personally I would place the CM QFR in-line with the Filco. The deciding factor then is budget. If you can afford the quality of a Filco, go for it. If you're strapped for cash, then get the QFR.

CM QFR if you are on a budget and don't want backlighting.

Filco if you are not on a budget and don't want backlighting.

Ducky if you want backlighting.

Pretty much this.
