Modern97 Mechanical Keyboard Fountain

This is such an underrated board! I love the colour scheme (great contrast between the mint and black) and sound. The gasket mount and dampening foam are amazing--way better than anything else I've tried. This is such a joy to type on. I got the Kailh Sonic53 switches, and they are perfection. I haven't had a number pad in a long time, so that's a welcome addition. The only things I don't like are the positioning of the arrow keys (awkward and hard to get used to) and the lack of a delete key (?!?). I know I can re-map but it seemed like such an odd omission.

My modern97 came impeccably packaged and felt amazing straight out of the box. I love the inclusion of the extra keys as I personally don't use print screen or page up/down but delete, home, and end are non-negotiable. Having those ready to go was a huge relief! I would like to add that build quality is top notch. I've loved the past month I've been daily driving my modern 97.

Note: the letter keys were swapped because I like the feel of these ones. The keyboard sounds and feels great to type on and the software is pretty easy to use.
