I'm no keyboard enthusiast, only had 1, so I haven't really felt what's out there.

My keyboard recently broke, so I bought a "wooting". I had never heard of this brand, but I bought it since it's the only one I saw that fit all the criteria:

• Spanish layout
• Big chonky ENTER key
• 100% size
• Backlit keys
• Silent keys

The silent keys part were a disappointment, it is way louder than the previous one (had cherry MX silent keys). However, the rest is pretty nice.

It has detachable USB cable. You can choose if the cable exits from left, right or center. And the feel is pretty good.

I don't care about the analog keys. And I guess this is part of the reason of it being kinda pricey.

The wrist rest I like, even though you have to buy it separately, it feels good and is silicone. So not too hard, and it doesn't change shape under the weight of the wrist. I wish it could be physically attached to the keyboard though.

It seems to be a European brand too, which is a big plus.

Anyone else got a keyboard from this brand?

EDIT: I almost forgot. It comes with some extra key switches. And I believe they are solderless-swappable. Which is kinda nice, since the last keyboard I had to replace just because of 2-3 broken keys.

How did you commit to your first ergo?

There are too many (mostly very expensive) options, and I've reached decision paralysis.

I've been typing on a mech for over 10 years and lust after the concept, but can't get past the perceived risk of buying something I won't use.

Looking to get an entry level kb, what should I take into consideration besides switch type, size, and aesthetic?

I'm going to be cramming a Pi Zero, a battery pack, a DIY custom keyboard, and a 9" touchscreen into some sort of 3D printed enclosure to make a "Writer Deck" built around the Wordgrinder low-distraction word processor. I'd like to keep the keyboard part somewhat integrated into the design and maybe around the footprint of a 60%, but what would y'all suggest as a good layout optimized for writing prose rather than code?

Most of my favorite personal builds are variations on an FRL 1800 (here's an example of a much nicer one than I make), but I can make any layout that's physically practical and able to use normal keycaps.

Does anyone know of any good keyboards with oversized key caps? Reddragon had one, but it's out of production now.
