I have 3 FilcoTKL's, 2 blues and one brown with ninja key caps. They started to get quite expensive for what they were.

I use an IBM model M today with a Model H controller replacement.

both my kids are using my old Filco TKL keyboards with blues. Absolutely no complaints from either of them. Only issues are that the footpads are getting a little worn down, one is missing, and I think I spilled beer on one many years ago before I gave them up.

I also have the Filco keycap puller. Keyboard cleaned and saved!

I now use a Keychron K2 with browns. My fingers are getting too old to use blues on a regular basis.

They’re great pass-me downs. The rubber feet issue was one I encountered too, also got some sticky keys due to beer!
