Custom keyboard maker Mode Designs has built its name on consistency. The brand blends elegant, minimalist designs with fine attention to detail, for impeccable quality both physically and in the typing experience. While the world of custom mechanical keyboards has, in many ways, become tumultuous since many workers no longer work from home, Mode has sailed full steam ahead with new products that keep a solid focus on the brand's identity within the desk setup space.

The Mode Loop TKL isn’t a new keyboard anymore, but it’s still wet behind the ears in the company’s line-up. It’s the largest keyboard the company offers and its tenkeyless layout makes it a comfortably familiar choice for anyone considering jumping into the hobby. Starting at $299 and extending to well over $700 in its most expensive configuration, which is fully built at Mode HQ for you ($550 if you bring your own switches and keycaps), the Loop TKL is an eminently premium option. Yes, you'll pay for the boutique design, multitude of customizable options, and impressive craftsmanship — it's an impressive offering in virtually every way.
