Microsoft Ergonomic 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!

This a quality great keyboard: comfortable, durable. I've been using it almost daily for the last 5 years, and it's still going strong and no RSI. It took some getting used to at first, after decades of using a regular keyboard, but I couldn't go back now. The only snag is that the most commonly used letters (painted white) have worn off the keys (in the middle of the keyboard). As a touch typist, it doesn't usually bother me, except on odd occasions when I'm using only one finger for some reason. Otherwise, highly recommended.

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.

I brought this product whilst been off sick, since going back to work using the keyboard I've realise that some of the keys are incorrect like the @ sign is actually the" and that's with a few of the keys. If I didn't need it for my carpnal tunnel injure it would be sent back.

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 was supplied a Nordic keyboard (Denmark, Norway, Sweden) not a UK one as in the product description. It works and is very comfy, just takes some getting used to.

Love the shape and feel of the keyboard. - my first ergonomic keyboard. It really makes a difference in hand positioning. As from Microsoft, expected, and received, a keyboard mouse that did not feel cheap. Keys can feel chunky/bulky but this suits me fine. I have not tested the gaming or sleep mode so cannot comment hence my rating for these features. The ergonomics

Bought this expecting a UK layout and got the Nordic one. Had to return it, it's not clear if it's just luck of the draw or they're all Nordic. I've had this model before and it's worth its weight in gold for someone who suffers from RSI.

Le ancien clavier Microsoft n'existe plus. Dommage. Le réduction en qualité et le placement des touches ont changés, mais c'est encore mieux que les autres si tu veux un bon positionnement en terme de ergonomie pour tes mains.

The box and Amazon entry photos clearly show an American layout, but in the box is the UK layout. This is the 2nd keyboard I've bought trying to get the US one. I generally like this keyboard, so I still gave it 3 stars, but wanted to make sure people are aware of this!

Great price, product, and could not be happier. I bought the keyboard and mouse package for work and then liked it so much I bought it for home.
