Anyone else disappointed with the durability of Ducky Keyboards?
Just broke my third Ducky Keyboard. Two of them died to a few drops of liquid, The third fell on wooden floor from a height of about 1m. While my cheap-o mechanical keyboard has bathed in coffee, been yanked off my desk multiple times by its cable getting pulled by my chairs armrest and survived without any damage.

I have a Ducky One 2 RGB full-size, 2 months into the 2 year-old mark and I've had a few issues with it. I live in a humid place and one day it just stopped working. I had it a couple of days in a cardboard box and miraculously started working again. Sometimes it loses its memory and I lose my RGB and macros settings. Sometimes it rapidly turns off and back on. Some keycaps are starting to peel. I like mechanical keyboards but this was my first foray into a "proper" mechanical keyboard after trying a Logitech G413 Carbon with disastrous results (space bar registering twice or thrice in a single press!), but I don't really know any good mechanical keyboards brands that don't cost an arm and a leg (I'm open to recommendations).
Currently using this one:
I'm happy with it. The knockoff blue switches are better than Cherry blues IMO (much quieter, remind me more of MX browns), the keycaps are only double-shot ABS, though.
Thanks! Will add it to my wishlist.
