I have quality issue with Poker 3 (or maybe the switches).
I bough mine (black, no backlit, cherry blue) from Amazon a little more than 1 year and use it for work. After half a year, the left shift key failed to response sometimes. Sent back for repair under warranty. After another 2 month, left ctl key failed to response sometimes. Repaired myself. After another 1 month, I forget which key it is, failed to response sometimes. Repaired myself. Now, number key 1 failed to response sometimes and I feel that more keys will die soon.
Maybe these keyboards or cherry blue switches are not designed for heavy usage or not designed to last over one year. Could anyone suggest if HHKB pro and it's Topre switches have better quality?

Corsair K70 is an okay board at best. There are plenty of other boards that can last longer than that and have better quality at a better price. Topre switches are easily the best switch out there IMO. However they are very expensive. If you're going for a Topre keyboard I would recommend the Leopold FC660C, it's the HHKB but higher quality and more cushoning.
