My daily is the kb below. Keychron C1, Fekker Panda switches, foam mod, o-rings, GSA keycaps.

Nothing special, but a very pleasant typing experience.

The above kb is a Moergo Glove80. I'm still getting used to it, so it's not my daily.

How do you feel about the Keychron build quality? I just ordered one of the Q5 Pros to have a hotswap/knob board.

Really wanted to snag a Wind x98 kit awhile back, but didn’t have the money (or time) to get one of the kits.

Not OP, but I doubt their board's build quality is indicative, really. The C and non-pro K series are wholly like different boards, at a different price point. All plastic, and while they're sturdy enough, it's nothing special.

Source: I have a K2. Compared to my wife's Epomaker TH80, I prefer the Epomaker in terms of build. But it's not like the K2 is bad, or anything. I'd expect the C series to be mostly comparable.
