| Great ergo keyboard for PC but has no adjustable height |
| I had to replace my previous Adesso ergo keyboard (I spilled coffee in it and then cat chewed through cord). I tried Logitech's wave keyboard which is slightly curved but really not a true ergonomic design and my wrists began to hurt, so I got this one which was identical to my original. It's fabulous. I love the placement of keys, but that may be just habit (some users may not like 3 x 2 layout of insert/delete/home/end/up/down, especially if you tend to hit the insert key accidentally). The one I received was not exactly the same as Amazon's picture, but the only difference is where they put the Adesso logo, everything else is the same I think.
Some caveats:
1. You can't adjust the height! I've never seen a keyboard without little adjustable feet, but this one is just one big chunk of plastic angling up at the back for a total of just over 2 inches high. This is the perfect height for my needs but watch out if you want to adjust it.
2. It has fixed keys for PC use, whereas the Logitech wave keyboard showed which keys were Option and squiggle for Mac.
3. It's heavy - I don't know why, maybe they used industrial-strength plastic. But the quality looks and feels great so it's not apparent that this was a cost saver. One nice aspect of being heavy and having good rubber pads is that it doesn't slide around your desktop like my Logitech wave does.
Overall, an excellent product and incredible value. I received it from Tech For Less within days using priority shipping.
| | I have done medical transcription for 30+ years and average 8-10 hours per day at my keyboard. I have gone through multiple designs and types of ergonomic keyboards over the years and so far this one is my favorite. Very comfortable to use, just enough "click" and a light touch. Highly recommended!
| | Keyboard was inexpensive, arrived quickly and lived up to its reviews for comfort and ergonomic design. Overall 100% satisfaction.
| | Backspace key takes a sledge hammer to use |
| I love this keyboard with this one exception. It takes a sledge hammer to use the backspace key. All the others are great, I actually like the keys on this keyboard better than Microsoft's ergo keyboard. I have tried to find a solution to the terrible backspace key, but to no avail. It's not enough for me to return this, but I sure wish it wasn't so hard to depress this one key. Sometimes I think I'm going to break my finger just trying to mash this key to go back whenever I make a mistake and unfortunately, I type so fast that I make a lot of mistakes! Would I recommend this keyboard to others? Absolutely. My keyboard is probably a fluke. If it weren't for this one issue, and the fact that Microsoft's version has a padded wrist rest, I would rate this one 5 stars.
| | The first one of these keyboards I ordered didn't work, so I exchanged it for a new one. This one worked fine for a few months. Now it will simply stop registering with the computer and I have reboot to get it to recognize I have a keyboard plugged in. I do NOT recommend this keyboard based on the problems I have had.
