It depends. What are you looking for in a keyboard (What size? Quiet? Clicky? Flashy colors? Ergonomic? Switches that you can change later? New or vintage?) And what’s your budget?

How about a iGK64? RGB & hot-swappable switches and you can get one complete with switches and caps for ~$80. They also have nice upgrade options if you want to spend a bit more, like metal or wooden cases. http://www.epathbuy.com/product/hot-swappable-mechanical-keyboard-with-pbt-dye-subbed-dsa-keycaps-powermonkey-igk64-set2c/

thomasfuchs(only thing it doesn't tick off your list is "ergonomic", but it depends on the individual what that exactly means!)

Check out Anne and Vortex. Both make quality keyboards. Anne is on the cheaper side while Vortex have a little better build quality.

DuncanHey @ST199 ! Congrats on shopping around for your first keyboard! Do you have any certain preferences such as what switches, size, or budget for this keyboard?

I went from a red dragon kumara with knockoff blue switches ($30) to a corsair k55 because i needed something quiet, I am currently using a saber 68 with linear mod H switches. Its all about what you like you can easily find something the hard part is narrowing down the choice.
Do you have a general idea on how much you're willing to spend, what type of switches you like, what layout you like?
