Review on Perixx PERIBOARD-409H: Compact USB Mini Keyboard with Dual USB Hubs, Black, US English Layout by Agonia Pedrosa

I really, really wanted to love this keyboard. It's the right size I was looking for (compact, no proper keyboard), comes with USB ports (2x), and costs $20 exactly. However, after using this keyboard for about two months, there are some serious flaws. The biggest problem is connection problems. I've connected it to my monitor and replaced laptops using the monitor's USB-C cable. About 95% of the time the connection works fine, but about 5% of the time the keyboard doesn't connect. I have a USB mouse connected to a USB keyboard, so when it's not recognized I have to go straight to my laptop (it's a pain and is why I wanted an external keyboard). Also, I have a Plantronics headset that used to be connected to a keyboard, but it has its own problems. My computer only recognizes the headset about 80% of the time, and every once in a while my call drops when I plug it in because the USB connection to the laptop drops. A minor issue is that the keys "stick" randomly. Every few days the key "freezes" and gains about 10-15 characters. The actual key isn't stuck, but something internal is stuck, and I end up with a long string that I need to remove. This is not a fatal error, but I would not have expected it from a conventional keyboard. Pros, then: compact design, x2 USB ports, and price; Cons: Cable connection issues, USB connection issues, and sticky buttons. Would I recommend, no, find something better even if it's more expensive. Stupidly, I bought two of these, one for each monitor I have at home.
