I use a Das Keyboard 4 Ultimate with cherry blues and love it. Have a good friend who likes using her grandson's gaming keyboard that I think is a nice membrane keyboard. She was interested in my keyboard as it is mechanical like the old keyboards she used back in the day.

We are both office users, not gamers.

I don't want to spend the $179 for a keyboard that might not be what she wants and there are better options now, from what I understand.

Can you please recommend a cherry blue mechanical with a number pad and a steel back plane?

I use a Das Keyboard Pro 4 as my daily driver and bought a super cheap Qisan brand keyboard for the office. It gets the job done as an entry level keyboard, and I like that it's super easy to clean. It would be a good beginner keyboard at around $30.
