My PC keyboard has gone a little silly and started getting stuck and almost writing on its own so I'd be grateful for any recommendations. Full size and not compact for my paws and if possible wireless.
Thanks.

Logitech MX Keys for me. A bit expensive but a lovely thing to use.

I have the mx keys and associated mouse, both great. added bonus you can connect them to 3 pc / laptops and flick between the easily.

Das keyboard ultimate. Never knew I needed a rotary volume control on the keyboard.

Edit: blank keys + volume control, not sure what model it is, forgotten.

Microsoft Sculpt for an ergonomic option. It sorted my wrist pain.

Thanks MX seems to be well recommended. Just have to see if work will cough up.

I've had a full sized Ducky One keyboard for 2 years now. Love it! It was expensive but I don't regret getting it. Highly recommended.

I have the MX one but the fn keys don't have gaps. I didn't realise until after I'd got it how much I locate F5 and F9 by touch via the gaps between groups...

So now I don't like it. Other than that it's fine.

I started looking at things like the MX Keys until I fell down the mechanical keyboard rabbit hole, and now I have two. I couldn't go back to a conventional keyboard now.

Something like the Keychron K2 would be a good entry into the world of mechanical joy.

I bought a backlit mechanical Logitech keyboard a little while ago so that I could spod late at night with the lights off so I didn't wake up my partner. Now I keep her awake by the sound of dropping a bag of marbles into the bath instead.

The Mx mechanical is available with pretty quiet keypress, I chose it for multitasking on conference calls but it might work for not waking up the misses too 🙂
