Looking for an easy to clean keyboard (spillproof/dustproof) with numpad. No need usb passthrough. I don't mind wireless keyboard suggestions as well.

Last one I saw that I liked was Cooler Master MK750. But any other suggestions?

Agreed, brought so many keyboards and mouse over the years. Just throw away a working logitech PS2 keyboard brought 15yrs ago... never had a failure unless you get those low-end $20 one...
For non-mechanical, Logitech is the one-and-only choice for me now....the unified connector allows switching between Mac, PC, Laptop. Just equally divide the price to 3 devices, very good value for money and keep the desktop clean.

Worst is the Apple usb keyboard, random key failure every 6-9months...still keep 1 for safe boot.

I like scissor switches,and at this point of time Microsoft sells the best scissor switch keyboards imo. Even better than Logitech.

Currently using a Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard set. Still trying to get used to the split keyboard but the keys are top notch.

Own a wireless Microsft Ergonomic keyboard set 1st gen, nice build but drain battery and endup in store room.

Low maintenance, 12mnths battery life, easy to multi-tasks with logitech to toggle between Mac, PC seamlesly, setup the shortcut keys once and it follows you all the way to any machine... very very very sticky...pre-warned:s13:

Use to be using G413 Carbon..Dont like it cos the spacebar key became intermittently unresponsive..

Switch to Tecware Phantom RGB..Currently using a BT mech keyboard by royal kludge(china)..Feels better than my tecware..

I change the keycaps to akko 9009 pbt..

In my limited mechanical keyboard experience, I have experienced key failures from outemu, gateron and cherry. However kailh one still works fine after 4 years.

If you buy, look for replaceable keys swicth
