Editorial Review:

Product Description:
A 14 degree gable separates the two groups of keys, which is complemented by the curved key bed and 7-degree wrist rest for what looks to be a truly comfortable typing experience. Other notable features include a zoom slider, five programmable favorites keys for launching documents and applications, forward & backward keys located in the center of the keyboard, hotkeys, and the standard enhanced function keys.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Key placement is great, space bar makes me regret the purchase
I've had this keyboard for a few weeks. It's my third split ergonomic keyboard, my first from Microsoft. The hand position feels just right, but depressing the keys is noisy and unpleasant. The space bar is worst of all, since hitting it anywhere but right in the middle requires an extra hard press. And since this is a split keyboard, my thumbs don't reach to the middle of the space bar when in the standard typing position. I had hoped the space key would loosen up to allow my off-center use without requiring so much force to depress it. It hasn't, and I still find myself correcting missed space typos weeks later. I use this keyboard with a laptop when at my desk, and I keep catching myself typing at desk height on the laptop to avoid the Microsoft keyboard, a no-no for me due to a repetitive ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - What is up with the SPACEBAR?
I upgraded from the Microsoft Natural Ergo Keyboard to this one and I am back to using my original keyboard. The good thing about this keyboard is that it allows you type in a more comfortable and natural position. The wrist rests are a bit softer than my original natural ergo keyboard.

If you use this for typing out letters, amazon reviews, and essays, you will do just fine. That's because your two thumbs will rest in the center of the SPACEBAR. This is enough force to get desired response.

If you use the keyboard for typing and game playing, then you will have an issue with this keyboard. That's because a gamer will most likely press the SPACEBAR key from the sides and that will cause a sticking seesaw motion with the key. I went to the store and tested other Microsoft ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Small price to pay
If you spend too long at a desk and the aches and pains associated with typing your life away are getting to you, I would heartily recommend this keyboard as part of an ergonomic make-over. There are plenty of other very competent reviews here that go into the finer points, but my 2 cents? It probably won't cure major woes on it's own, but with proper monitor height, foot position and all that jazz, I have certainly noticed a significant improvement. Bottom line my wrists and hands are more comfortable during the day and they don't hurt at the end of it. I'm also typing with greater speed and accuracy with this keyboard.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Ergo Design
I love this keyboard because of the way, and the angle at which the keys are split. It is perfect for my tendonitis-prone left wrist, which is why I needed it. I only wish there was a bluetooth version because I use it with my laptop and I hate wires!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Space bar
I received the keyboard today. The space bar is a big problem. It gets stuck in the pressed position. it is also difficult to press it from sides. you need to push it in the middle which is totally contradictory with the ergonomic design. the design itself is quite good but the space bar, which is maybe the most commonly used key, creates a big problem. I do not recommend this keyboard to anyone. Go for the Microsoft Curve Comfort.
