Customers say
Customers find the keyboard nicer than conventional ones, comfortable for wrists and shoulders, and simple to set up and use. They consider it good value for money and appreciate its functionality, though some report issues with the backspace key not working after 5+ months of use. The keyboard layout and build quality receive mixed feedback – while some find the arrow keys strange to use and the keys robust, others note the arrow keys aren’t arranged properly and the keyboard is too big for hands.

Perfect for typing
Perfect keyboard to replace my more expensive MS split one. This is a QWERTY keyboard with UK layout, as in, the ‘at’ key, (symbol @) is in the normal place- centre row, third key from right. The keys make a noise when you press them, so if you want silent keys, don’t get this keyboard. Wrist rest is hard plastic but is angled to make hands and wrists feel comfortable and the plastic of the entire keyboard is the same – as in, keys, wrist rest and frame – and is smooth to the touch. All keys are at the right angle to use The Home, End Delete keys etc, are vertical in two columns of three keys each, as opposed to three columns of two keys each, as on standard keyboards and so take a bit of getting used to – I’ve pressed page up instead of end, by accident a few times. Overall, I am keeping this keyboard as it is the cheapest split keyboard I can find, and it feels very comfortable to use for ‘on and off’ typing like browsing, shopping, emails etc. I have not typed for hours yet, so cannot comment on that. Was using this for a while before I noticed it has two feet underneath to raise up the keyboard, but I find it too high, so I leave it flat. Plastic of this keyboard feels warm after a while, so helps with my cold hands!!

Great Keyboard
I love this keyboard, I was using another Perixx keyboard, but wired, for the last 10 years, and I decided to go wireless.I love the Quality of this keyboard.it can be connected with bluetooth of with his dungle, this make it really versitle.This white version is really fancy and it is good in our leaving room, Iâm not sure if the white will become Yellow in few years, but the plastic seems really good, so Iâ confident to say that Will remain white and good!Itâs ergonomic but you need to be good to type with it, anyway, I suggest to everyone that work in IT to give a try to this ergonomic keyboards, if you will get use to them, your posture will change in better!!

Sturdy and easy to use
I have been using this product for a month now and I find it quite easy to use, very sturdy and has a very quick signal response. I have not yet used all the modes but I anticipate no challenges. Buttons are nice and comfy. Keyboard size is suitable for standard desks (at least 60 cm depth). Recommend to buy.

Very pleased indeed with my purchase, would recommend as it has the £ sign above the 3
I’m very pleased with my purchase because this keyboard is very close to what I wanted which was a white true UK layout keyboard with the £ sign. A lot of UK layout keyboards advertised do not have the £ sign above the no 3 (they have a hash tag instead) but I messaged the seller who came back to me in an hour and confirmed it did along with another kind Amazon purchaser afterwards. It took 5 goes to get used to the ergonomic keyboard and it does feel strange at first but pleasantly getting used to it and the feel is much better than a normal keyboard because your elbows aren’t squeezed into your sides so you’re more relaxed with reduced tension going through your arms and into your shoulders. I wanted the ‘old school’ high profile keys and these go about 3 quarters up in height to what I like but they don’t seem to manufacture any more. With this keyboard you still get that feeling. If you use the keyboard level your fingers and hands angle slighly downwards but I use mine with the legs up so the keyboard is level. A nice big hand rest, again getting used to this as it looks very big but is surprisingly comfortable. When you type the sound of the keys is between a clunk and a click and is medium noise level. I’ve been typing on different keyboards for 40 years and can honestly say I’m very pleased with my purchase because the layout is very similar to my last keyboard and is excellent value for money. It also works perfectly by the way… Happy days!

Brilliant Ergonomic Keyboard
I was slightly sceptical about this purchase as the keyboard was considerably cheaper than comparable models. In addition, it is wired and most of my recent keyboard purchases have been wireless. Having had the keyboard for a month, I can honestly say it is one of the best peripheral devices I have bought. It is easy to use, has stopped my hand and arm aching and is exceptionally well built. The keys are robust and have a solid spring. The wire for the keyboard is long and allows me to move the keyboard without getting tangled. The wire is not a problem as I don’t tend to move my keyboard in the same way I would a mouse. Great value for money and good quality!

Bulky, not especially ergonomic, odd arrow keys, and faulty wireless connection
Split and curvy keyboards are an acquired taste, an entirely subjective matter. This is my first split/curvy keyboard. Unfortunately it isn’t for me but maybe you will like it, who knows? Here is what I think:1. Not as ergonomic as I hoped.Gave me more shoulder fatigue and pain than before.Keyboard is too tall and the non-removable, mandatory arm rest is too large. Combine those with the arrow keys and numpad makes the keyboard unbelievably bulky. The height makes me tilting my arms abit upwards, and the width makes reaching for the mouse a mile away, you have to stretch your arms uncomfortably far just to use the mouse. Not to mention it simply took up too much desk space.In addition, the split isn’t wide enough, and the angle of the split isn’t enough as well, so your shoulders are still kinda clamped inwards.Keyboard is also very loud.2. Odd arrow keysI hate those arrow keys, I don’t understand why they did make it like that. Very irritating and unnatural to use. The worst part of this keyboard without any doubt.3. Faulty wireless connectionWireless connection didn’t last long. At first both the bluetooth and the 2.4G work perfectly fine. Three weeks later, both of them start developing issues.Sometimes it won’t respond no matter how much and hard you are hitting the keys. Sometimes a single stroke would register multiple timeessssssss.I tried being patient and just live with it, until it messed up a document I was editing in neovim (it joined a few lines and deleted a few words for me). At that point I said “that’s it” and requested a return.

Waited for weeks as it was coming from overseas. Excitement became disappointment when found out USB receiver was missing. But then I found it on my floor, it was not securely attached to the USB storage place. So excitement came back. Then I turned it on and used it, the user experience was like using a clunky cheap piece of KB plastic. Returned it, for this price I expected a bit more less cheap plastic feel.
