Hello.
New user, long time lurker! Nice to meet you all.
I'm currently looking at buying my 3rd Mechanical, and I plan on doing it right this time.
Firstly I had a Razer Blackwidow. Didn't actually have any problems besides the gloss, but I got rid of it quite soon. Then I got the Steelseries 6GV2. After about only 6 months it's on its last legs.
After using the MX Blues and Blacks, I've decided to settle in the middle for Browns. I originally wanted a backlit keyboard but after research on here and other forums I've decided against it for the general build quality (Previously I was looking at the Ducky Shine 2, but this is purely for looks as I can touch type perfectly fine).
I think at the moment i'm most likely to go for the Filco Majestouch 2. It seems like a safe buy and a very well loved keyboard, but I was wondering if anybody had anything else to recommend?
I was also looking at CM Storm Quickfire Pro / Trigger, Das Professional and Max Nighthawk X8, but all in all it always seems to point to the Filco.
I apologise for my vague question, just hoping to not make a 3rd mistake, as where I am it's pretty much impossible for me to try out any keyboards before I buy them, so I have to settle for blind optimism. (Or with the help of you guys, well educated optimism).
