MicrosoftErgonomic Desktop, Black

Bought this 26 November 2022 and today is 07/04/2024.Still going strong, love the build quality. My wrists and forearms no longer hurt and along with my gaming desk and gaming chair, work is actually enjoyable.There have been no issues or keys sticking, and the mouse precision hasn't declined. The performance now is exactly the same as it was when I took it out the box.If you're indecisive just buy it, you wont look back!

Some reviewers expressed doubts about the durability of the lettering on the keys - after 10 months of heavy duty use they haven't worn off (which is good). Keyboard isn't as "tilted" as my old one which is a shame and I wish that the Enter/Return key was slightly larger but it is close enough. The now discontinued MS keyboard had a very similar layout to the Perixx 11524 PERIBOARD-512 which I couldn't use in an office environment nor at home due to the key action being too "clacky" to be acceptable to others around me.

I liked the shape and comfort of the keyboard. Unfortunately it did not work

Generally, a good enough keyboard, replaced my Microsoft 4000 keyboard. Though there are a few niggles with it, for me at least, and I accept some folks will not have any issues with these.The emoji key is pretty useless at this point and in a silly place. It should be tucked away on the top row somewhere, a right waste of prime space where it is.The application key is now on the left in between CTRL and WinKey, which is again silly. It makes some of the keyboard shortcuts using the Win Key a bit more challenging to reach, though not a big deal for most folks. It cannot be remapped but can be turned off, though this also turns off the function for the Emoji key if you remap it to be the application key, aka, turning off the left one disables it for both keys. They should have just left this key on the right where the Emoji key now lives.Calc key now sits above the F11 key, which is also silly as it is nowhere near the number pad now.The lock key, sits right above the DEL key, a silly place for it.The Office Key, quite useful for some, once you figure it out, you can open most (not all though) of the locally installed MS Office apps or use it to take you directly to the Office 365 login page. So, useless for anyone not using MS Office and it cannot be remapped.Only three Fav keys now too, making me feel a little shortchanged.The keyboard itself feels quite nice, it is quiet enough and quite comfortable and feels well built. It is however not a match for the kit it replaced, the Microsoft 4000, and has some really duff placement choices and keys.The mouse feels fine, it is nice and light and works really well.Both plugged in, Windows installed the drivers and I was able to modify some of the keys from the MS Keyboard and Mouse Center.Overall, working well and the niggles are likely not a deal-breaker for most folks.

Even though this is a nice keyboard and great if you type often due to it being ergonomicThe keyboard letters are absolutely garbage in that they wear off extremely fastThis time certain letters lasted 2 weeks to a month brilliant (not)

This keyboard is very comfortable and quiet. If you have not used one before it takes a bit of getting used to but is very comfortable to use.

This replaced my old one that had lasted a long time ,In the end you get what you pay for and this keyboard although a tad expensive is great with product updates if you wish to use them .I have not used the mouse with this but have the same keyboard at work and use the mouse there which again I dind to be useful. Recommend -easy to set up and no silly legs on the keyboard which are on others and easily snap.

I first used a Microsoft Natural 4000 keyboard in the 1990s to address some tendonitis issues. After neatly 30 years of use I spilled coffee on it and had to replace it. This keyboard is the replacement. It's very slightly different (e.g. it has a smiley-face key) to the 4000, but it's pretty much the same thing. I hope I never need to replace this, because I'm worried that similar keyboards will not be available later. Actually I think I might buy a second one, just in case.
