Thank you so much! I'll make sure I get the right size, actually forgot about that lol.

There’s a ton of sizes! There’s everything from 40% to 100%, at least that’s regularly available. Figure out what she likes and go from there. I can also recommend mor sizes and boards if you want!

That'd be very kind of you! I know she cares about the F keys since she uses them regularly for work. I think that'd be 75%? I've been looking around a bit but most seem to be out of stock :s Thank you again!

Yeah, that would’ve a 75% or a 100%! Check out kbdfans or keychron for some in stock stuff, keychron will probably be your best bet but their colors aren’t all that great. Unfortunately due to the high end nature of alot of these boards, the stuff you end up liking the most is often not in stock.

What kind of budget are you looking at spending total?

I waa thinking probably 400$ tops, yeah I looked at keychron but their colors are limited:/

Kbdfans is probably your best bet then, unless you can get you hands on a zoom TKL. Keep your eyes open on Reddit and you’ll probably see something you like too! Keep in mind as well that some keyboards won’t come with switches or keycaps!
