Solves my keyboard problems.
1 of 1 found this helpful My incipient carpal tunnel went away when I switched to using these many years ago. The split keyboard means you don't have to force your hands into an unnatural position to type. If you have broad shoulders, as I do, and have to spend hours typing fast, as i do, this is the only keyboard to use without eventual injury.
My only complaint is that it's a little flimsy and that nice easy key action has no resilience or cushion. And it deteriorates over time. But as long as these are available, they're inexpensive enough to keep buying a new one every couple of years when you need to.

Lousy, but useful
This is actually a pretty lousy keyboard, but no worse than the others on the market. The key action is harsh and unpleasant to use if you do a lot of fast typing.
But the layout of it is extremely good if regular flat ones cause arm and hand strain. It really is "ergonomic." My shoulders are way too broad to use a laptop keyboard comfortably, and even with a regular size flat keyboard, I started having pain in my upper arms years ago. A keyboard that's split and humped up in the middle solved that issue almost immediately -- and permanently -- so I've stuck with them for more than 20 years now. Microsoft's is the last one on the market now, and even so it's hard to find. If they discontinue them, I'll have to quit my job.

It's a good basic product, easy to use, limited functionality
