Clack Lab exists because the mechanical keyboard hobby can be overwhelming and expensive, and most of the best advice is locked inside sprawling forum threads. We do the digging, the typing, and the testing, then write it up in plain language so you can buy with confidence.
We focus on the budget end of the market, roughly forty to ninety dollars, where the value has gotten genuinely good. Every board we recommend is one we have used for daily work, and we tell you about the flaws as well as the strengths.
A note on how we fund the site: some links are affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. That never changes our rankings. We recommend the board we would tell a friend to buy.
