Probably the Model F Labs reissue of the Model F.

I thought they had issues with the quality of the product

Ehh, one person is recreating a complex mechanical/electronic product from scratch. I would not say quality has issues (the quality of the parts is fantastic) but sometimes some work is required to get everything working smoothly. Like re-seating springs etc. There’s a reason rubber domes took over - they just work, not maintenance or setup required.
It’s not a mass produced product.

I feel you... I looked long and hard into getting some beamsprings... But after I got a keyboard with Blue Alps I decided it was too much work and too much of a risk to spend this money on a model F.

What ever happened to that other manufacturer who was making beamspring switches that were analog?

I always preferred the Model F, but they don’t always work well with adapters, the delete key gets confused.
Logitech tends to make good commodity product designs that feel pretty good, but longevity, not always.
If you like it, buy a spare. Or two.
