Let me start with the mouse and keyboard first, and they're big. If you have small hands or want a sleek design, look elsewhere. But if you have big hands and desk space like me, this keyboard and mouse is for you. Let's start with the mouse. I have the exact same mouse, probably bought about 15 years ago. It still works to this day. When not in use, the mouse goes into sleep mode to save battery power. Maybe I replace the batteries twice a year? I don't know, I have batteries so I don't care. The mouse has some weight and is bigger, which I like. All mice available today are so tiny that they are uncomfortable and cannot fit in your hand. This mouse is perfect and when my old keyboard died I tried to find a keyboard that came with the mouse. So I was very happy when I found out that I have a keyboard and another identical mouse. So now I have an extra one in case my other mouse dies. keyboard, this baby is big. It's not a slim design, it's not meant to save space. But the ergonomic cushion on the front is great, and the footrests on the bottom add a nice tilt. The button set is responsive and works great. I have no complaints about the keyboard other than its size. All in all, this is a great facility. If you want something compact and small to slip in your pocket then this isn't for you. But if you want a solid keyboard and what I think is the most comfortable mouse, then this is the one for you. I highly recommend this facility.
