As a professional pc user, I type about 1 million characters per year. My old Logitech Comfort keyboard of 2004 was in need of a replacement after 13 years of continuous use. Is Adesso made of the same quality materials? This is hard to say. Time will tell. So far, the experiences with this keyboard have been good. I chose for the Adesso since it fairly closely matches the old Logitech Comfort keyboard with a few minor changes in the key configuration, which is an important asset to me. Plus+++++: Keys with positive action. Easy setup Trouble free wireless connection On/Off switch Connect switch USB dongle Minus--: Unlike the Logitech Comfort keyboard it replaces, this does not have the adjustable height supports front nor back. To me, this is an important issue that I discovered only after the purchase. The characters and symbols on the keys are oversize. This may be good for a person with diminished vision but they are a bit too big for my liking. Battery size is only 2 x AAA. The retiring Logitech came with 2 x AA, but did not boast an on/off switch as Adesso (may help to save battery lifespan). Unlike the Logitech Comfort keyboard palm rest, the Adesso palm rest cannot be detached. Conclusion: I fixed the issue of the missing supports front and back, much to my satisfaction, by sticking 3 rubber pieces cut from an old eraser to the bottom of the keyboard. This raises the front by about 1/2 inch and increases the comfort when typing. Typically, the Adesso keyboard works great as advertized. On the whole, I think it is good value for the money. Durability is to be determined over time.Read full review

I've actually purchased two of this exact keyboard and mouse set. After my first, unsatisfactory purchase but then reading positive reviews online, I thought it might just be a random fluke. I really wanted to like this purchase in both instances because of the relatively inexpensive cost and the possible functions included. For the first purchase, the mouse worked splendidly and the keyboard set up was remarkably easy. However, with the first attempt to use the keyboard to sign into my profile, I found that the number keys weren't working or registering despite every attempt. For the second attempt (assuming that the first error may have just been extra energetic shipping or something), I wasn't able to get the USB dongle to recognize or pair with either the keyboard or mouse on multiple attempts, and multiple platforms (tried on my desktop PC, and Mac laptop). At this point, I think I may have to accept that this keyboard is just not for me.Read full review

This is an amazing Keyboard. I enjoy using it because of the range and can sit it across my knees as well and still type fairly quickly. The hotkeys are a nice addition as well. Keep up the good work Adesso. :-)

This is an amazing keyboard. I have been using mine for 3 months now and my hand pain (I do transcription) is GONE. It is sleek and quiet. The keys themselves are not very deep which is why it's less stress on your hands. Hands are properly aligned but you may need to raise the keyboard up (as I have done) to ease stress on the wrists. Of all the ergonomic keyboards I have used, this one is the best. ***** NOTE TO EBAY BUYERS****** If someone is trying to sell this keyboard and the description says "USB missing" or "no USB dongle" please be aware that this keyboard will not work. Each keyboard is paired with it's own exclusive USB dongle for wireless transmission. There are no replacement dongles as they are paired in the factory before shipping. All you can do is buy a whole new set.
Verified purchase: No
Pros: Does work ergonomic cons: Needs a longer space, I keep hitting beside it with my thumb needs feet for the back to raise it up cheap feeling plastic Also note the mouse feels like a copy of a logitech mouse just bigger.
