I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

At home Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard, I wanted to take it for work, but I took a chance and decided to try this one. Compared to Natural, it is more compact (we just remove the number block), the keystroke is more pleasant, the double space is much more convenient than this huge monster on Natural. I tried to use the mouse for a couple of weeks, but in the end I replaced it with the Logitech G602, which is more convenient for me. I removed the digital block somewhere, I donā€™t rememberā€¦

Pros
  • ergonomics nice key travel split space: Natural's huge space was a big problem separate digital block: you can move it away and the mouse lies much closer to the keyboard, takes up less space on the table compactness: in addition to a separate digital block, this is a reduced enter (by the way, it is very convenient when typing "blindly" with the little finger of the right hand) and the entire right part is compact nice soft wrist rest magnetic fastening of battery compartment covers - a trifle like, but very pleasant Microsoft wireless keyboard works without any problems in Ubuntu including function keys like volume change
Cons
  • glossy surface of the keys Wrist rest material wears off the mouse was useless for me

Upset and disappointed, the product is very bad!

All "as if" pluses are negligible. The most important thing is the short battery life. I would not write a review now from this clave, if not for the last straw - it suddenly ran out of power and could not enter the password for the entrance, although I inserted the battery 3 days ago and did not use it at all for 2 days. Found others - had to be removed from another device. Tomorrow I'll take it to work and give it to anyone. From work, I'll take my own 2-year-old Claudia from Logitech. It'sā€¦

Pros
  • Something is from "ergonomics". Soft wrist rest. Magnetic fastening of covers of battery compartments. A kind of mouse.
Cons
  • 1. "Destruction" of the battery charge. It feels like it's always on. There is no off switch, and if you accidentally leave something on it (for example, from evening to morning), then it will ā€œworkā€ and you will get an already half-discharged keyboard. "I have a lot of batteries and a charger, but so often I have not recharged either one of my devices. The available bluetooth keyboard from apple is still on the "old" batteries, although I bought it 2 years ago and use it from time to time. 2. Separate digital block. It's really 50/50 here. At first it was not bad, but then I realized that it was more Evil than good. 3. Poor small function keys from Esc to F12. The Esc button itself has fallen more than once ! and MORE - additional functionality - through the "tumbler", and not an additional key. This is complete nonsense. That is, there is an unambiguous switching from mode to mode. Working in an office program, in a file manager and listening to music at the same time, it will be difficult for you to manage both at the same time ((. And moreover, its Multimedia is reduced to Volume and Play / Pause. EVERYTHING! that is, running through the tracks in the background It will not work , unless you are using a different (not from the kit) Mouse with additional keys. I did not know this. I would not buy 100%. 4. MOUSE - Fixed on Start One of the Two additional buttons. I catastrophically "missed" such a button. And what is important - without the possibility of redirecting it to something. How can you - it's sacred. Not a hefty (!) button on the keyboard? Here's your spare.

Poor quality, not worth the money.

I myself use the microsoft natural ergonomic keyboard 4000 at home (already 2 pieces, both have the best impressions), I ventured to try this one for the office, deciding that in 2022 it was time to get away from the wires, but I was seriously mistaken, trusting the reviews. The keyboard is very non-standard, 3 days was enough to understand that it was impossible to get used to, took it back. Now the specifics - in one phrase the keyboard is not full-sized, the implementation of the top rowā€¦

Pros
  • Design, build quality, noiselessness
Cons
  • uncomfortable and impractical

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

Even with the blind ten-finger method, it took a couple of days to get used to the keyboard. It's comfortable, cool, I'm glad I bought it. However, in my opinion, the keyboard is overrated. Perhaps this is the merit of the useless mouse that comes with it. A separate num pad didnā€™t work for me personally, I just put it next to the keyboard in the right place. I have Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 at work, comparing both I can say that the working 4000 is better. She's just more comfortable.

Pros
  • The keyboard is really cool, nice key travel, hands rest on it. Great design.
Cons
  • The mouse is practically useless. It is inconvenient, the buttons are pressed too easily, with a single press, a double click is triggered. The hand lying on it constantly sweats from too tight fit of the palm to the surface, which, by the way, is glossy. I used it for a day and put it aside, I use my mouse from another manufacturer. Reducing the size of the keyboard sacrificed the convenience of the function keys. They turn on the lever on the top right, it's not very convenient.

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

While I was waiting for my order for this kit, I began to read reviews in the market, I began to get scared that many people did not like a number of function keys, the buttons stuck, creaked and covered with dust, the mouse was uncomfortable. The second day I use and try to find at least one flaw read. Unsuccessfully. A very comfortable keyboard that allows you to quickly type text blindly. I like the keyboard. Hands lie comfortably, the buttons are pressed almost like on native Makovskyā€¦

Pros
  • All good
Cons
  • A small Enter for programmers, with no empty space around. No native drivers for Mac. On a Mac in the 2022 layout, punctuation marks do not match those written on the buttons, for example, you need to put a period with Shift + 7 (on the other hand, this is convenient, since it matches the native Mac keyboard, and itā€™s also convenient that the comma is on 6-ke on the edge of the cutout on the left, and the dot on the 7-ke on the edge of the cutout on the right)

The best I ever used, recommend it to everybody.

I took to replace the next clave of the 4000th series, which I have been using both at home and at work for the last 10-15 years. Before that, there were ergonomic keyboards from MS of the first version (still white). I got the "ringing" of the keys when typing on the 4000th and coveted for a quiet set on the "sculptor". And it got really quiet! This is a huge plus! But for the lack of an equal sign on the digital block - a minus to the karma of its developers! There is also a lack of magneticā€¦

Pros
  • Quiet keys compared to the old ergonomic 4000 series keyboard. Short move. Tactile perception of text keys. Reducing the size due to "cutting off" the digital block and the ability to move the mouse to the "central axis" of the table
Cons
  • The inability to purchase a separate keyboard. The inability to use the mouse and keyboard separately, since the receiver is one and cannot be cloned. Tactile difference of pressing function keys. Not a very common layout. LACK of an equal sign on the numeric keypad and the inability to assign to another not very necessary one.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

This is the best keyboard and most comfortable mouse I have ever used. After the mouse does not hurt the hand. Wrists do not hurt after the keyboard. When reading blindly, hands are carefully placed on the Claudia and fingers easily reach all the keys. Big, heavy, nice material. I use at work. But Iā€™m already thinking about taking one home - after all, I also have to work on self-isolation and I need comfort when working with these tools.

Pros
  • Ergonomics of both items. Get used to - a day or two. Then you no longer notice how the speed of work increases.
Cons
  • Grease stains from hands and fingers appear on the surface of the keyboard. Gotta clean. Fortunately, everything is cleaned with chemistry without difficulty and bad consequences. They are battery powered - the last century. Nowadays, batteries should already be rechargeable.

The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

The kit is most suitable for the Internet, accounting and, possibly, programmers. It is hardly suitable for high-speed typing of a large amount of text with numbers, since the numpad will have to constantly search. The keyboard is not suitable for games at all, since it is impossible to reach some keys (H, Y, N, 7) and you have to use your second hand. You can also use the numpad as a separate keyboard on the left by changing the layout on it. Accountants can do the same if they get used toā€¦

Pros
  • Beautiful design, comfortable keys, a separate numpad, which allows you to free up your workplace, and in general you can put it anywhere (accountants will be happy, I think). Keys are quiet. There is a special switch for the function keys, which allows you not to break your fingers. The mouse also looks unusual, while being comfortable, but short in length, which will not appeal to people who like full coverage. There are two additional buttons, where the first opens the Start menu, and the second is the "Back" action (for the browser, that's it). The mouse has a compartment for the receiver, if you are going to take the keyboard and mouse anywhere. All covers are magnetic, so changing the batteries is not a problem, except for the numpad, which is screwed on.
Cons
  • The mouse has terrible tires. begins to peel off and wear off after a few months of working with it. In the button, which is under the "Start" button, pits have formed, which is not very pleasant to the touch. The mouse is optical and does not turn off automatically, so you have to turn it off yourself, but if you do not want to turn it off, then there is a power saving mode. The keyboard has a problem with the palm rest, which gets dirty rather quickly and shrinks, so you have to wash it often. Once you get used to this keyboard, you will no longer be able to quickly work with other models, as the keys have a non-standard size and location. This should be taken into account if you buy it for home, and at work you often have to print texts. People also complain about the function keys, but they work fine for me (apparently, how lucky here). Removing the cover from the numpad is difficult, but not breaking something is even more difficult. By the way, he uses a CR2032 battery, if memory serves. This way you get a whole collection of AAA, AA and CR2032 batteries. The signal may deteriorate if there are other wireless devices or receivers nearby. This manifests itself in missed keystrokes and loss of mouse signal for short periods of time. So be careful when connecting the receiver.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

I'm reading weird reviews here. I have been using it for several years, more than 10 hours a day, every day. I have never changed the batteries in the keyboard! In the mouse, yes, once every half a year, probably. The plastic is not worn anywhere, well, yes, scanty dots on the mouse, on the side of the rubber, but this is imperceptible and not felt, just if you take it in your hands and look at it. So I donā€™t let her out of my hands for days, for years. The soft upholstery on the clave isā€¦

Pros
  • Beauty, ergonomics, convenience, key travel, large mouse.
Cons
  • Yes, especially not. Individually.

The best thing I've ever used, I recommend it to everyone!

Mice and keyboards are individual pieces. Perhaps your opinion on this set will be completely opposite. But our opinion is this: it is excellent. set, much more convenient than the MS 4000. The mouse is excellent. You put your hand on her and she rests. On the keyboard, too, only excellent epithets. Its main advantage over the MS 4000 is its lightness (at the same time, its pronouncedness) and the depth of the key travel. When typing, the hands are much more relaxed, the keys are pressedā€¦

Pros
  • Keyboard (compared to MS Ergonomic Keyboard 4000): 1. Compact, especially good for designers/artists - fits comfortably to the left/right of the monitor/tablet, taking up little space. It is a separate num pad that gives a special win here. 2. Small and easy keystroke, which greatly speeds up and simplifies typing. If you type on such a keyboard for a week and return to the MS 4000, the key travel will seem tight and unreasonably deep. The fingers will tangle, often do not press the key to the end, the fatigue of the fingers will quickly be felt. 3. The top side of the keys has a larger area than the MS 4000, due to which you miss less when typing blindly. 4. The split spacebar solved two problems with the MS 4000: the key is no longer tight and noisy. 5. The cut in the center of the keyboard has a convenient application - it is convenient to take the keyboard by it when moving it 6. A number of function buttons (F1-F12) are located closer to the rest - you need to pull / move your hand less strongly 7. Due to the missing num pad, the hand with the mouse is closer to the hand with the keyboard, i. E. less handshake. It doesn't make much difference, but if you move your mouse hand to the right, where it used to be when using the MS 4000 keyboard, it becomes a little uncomfortable. 8. Lack of wires - when the wires from the mouse and keyboard disappeared from the table, you somehow start to treat them nervously. 9. The cursor keys and the rest (Delete, Home, End, PgUp, PgDown) are located in the same place as on laptops 15 ' and smaller. No need to have two key layout habits. 10. Very beautiful for our taste, very pleasant keystroke sound Mouse Feels like two users VERY comfortable. Her body goes clearly along the relaxed hand lying on the table. If you try on a hand on it, you will begin to squeeze it tightly with your hand and it will seem that the buttons are placed in the wrong place - too close to the center of the palm. But if you take the mouse with a relaxed hand, then it will not fit tightly around the mouse and between the center of the palm and the mouse .
Cons
  • . there will be a gap. In this case, the fingers of the hand fit perfectly on the buttons and the wheel. Perhaps the first couple of days it may still seem that the buttons are out of place, but then it seems the other way around. Again, the contrast will be noticeable upon returning to a regular mouse after using this one for a week. Further disadvantages: Keyboard: 1. Due to compactness, there is no spatial separation of the block with the cursor and the Delete, Home, End, PgUp, PgDown keys from the rest of the keyboard keys. This is of course less convenient than on the MS 4000, but I personally get used to it pretty quickly and do not miss using these keys blindly. In addition, there is a plus, described above in paragraph 9. 2. Function keys (F1-F12) are made painfully narrow, and also tighter to press. It is clear that the goal was to tactilely distinguish these keys from the rest, but not to the same extent! However, you get used to it. Also, either these keys are somewhat developed, or you get used to their stroke and it seems that over time these keys become softer. In general, this is a clear minus for me, but itā€™s clearly not worth bothering about this. 3. No indication of CAPS, NUM, SCROLL, FUNC. I personally don't care. Also, keyboard drivers are shown on the monitor screen when CAPS is pressed. 4. The arm padding is less padded than the MS 4000 and appears to be shorter when in fact it isn't. Initially, it was a little uncomfortable for me, but then you donā€™t notice it at all. 5. All dust particles are clearly visible on the glossy finish of the keyboard case; it gets unsightly much faster. True, but this case seems to be easier to wipe. Mouse: The sensitivity of the mouse is at its best and there were no complaints here immediately. In the remote at first, it seemed that the buttons were not located there. But after a day or two, all claims about the buttons and the wheel disappeared. As a result, on the mouse, I can only add to the minus that it is for right-handers.

Expected more from the purchase, but not the worst option.

Bought on 16 Mar 2022. Do not try to remove the keys - it is very easy to damage them. If you spill something, then you can throw it away because it will not work to remove the film with the tracks and wipe it. it is soldered under two metal plates. Non-warranty repairs are impossible, the keys cannot be replaced, there are no spare parts, there are no Microsoft service centers in nature. Phone support is useless. To disassemble the mouse, you need to remove the plastic panel that forms theā€¦

Pros
  • ā€¢ Comfortable mouse, but I have a wrist grip, then the position of the brush is almost the same as with the old mouse. ā€¢ Comfortable keyboard ā€¢ Separate digit block ā€¢ No wires
Cons
  • ā€¢ I had to buy a USB extension cable. There is no line of sight between the receiver and the keyboard and mouse. Without an extension cable, the connection is lost, the cursor slows down, and the battery probably runs out faster. ā€¢ Maintainability is low. ā€¢ Waterproofness of the keyboard is poor. ā€¢ Markaya. ā€¢ Keys Home, Insert, arrows to the touch can not be found. ā€¢ It is not convenient to play shooting games with such a mouse, but it is suitable for more relaxed games. ā€¢ The mouse does not automatically turn off - it scans all day and night. I had to develop the habit of turning it off at night.

It's not all bad, an average quality purchase.

I bought this set as an alternative to the Microsoft Natural 4000 keyboard. The keyboard has almost all the advantages of the 4000 that are important to me, while without the disadvantages that are significant for me - bulkiness and loud long-stroke keys. A separate numpad deserves a separate plus - it can be rearranged to the other side (I'm left-handed) or even removed when not needed, so as not to interfere. The mouse is very comfortable, I, a left-hander, switched from my left hand to myā€¦

Pros
  • Very comfortable and ergonomic keyboard Soft and quiet keys Magnetic mounts for stand and lids Comfortable mouse (for right-handers) Separate numpad
Cons
  • Poor quality "soft" materials and assembly No keyboard disable button Inability to connect additional devices to the transceiver Keyboard radio brake Inability to buy a separate keyboard Very greedy mouse

The item is average, not sure if it's worth the money.

I can't put it above 3. I recommend typing, editing the text, using the navigation keys before buying If you're considering a wireless replacement for the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic, it doesn't feel right at all. Perhaps it will suit someone as the very first keyboard (although a little expensive for this) Another option - if you are not a fan of touch typing, and do not plan to become one

Pros
  • Typing only text is very convenient. Creates little noise. The mouse is pleasant to the touch and in control
Cons
  • It is very inconvenient to work if you have to use the keys to navigate through the text. For example, where in all keyboards End - here PageDn. Arrows, Insert, Delete, and even Enter seem to be in the least suitable places for them. It's been almost 3 months of daily work, and I still miss the navigation keys. It's some kind of torment

Poor quality, not suitable for use.

Microsoft, damn it (that's putting it mildly). This is already the 3rd MS keyboard in my life with a perverse location of the add. keys. What for? Natural multimedia, then some other low black one, this sculpt. Well, it is impossible to use those who are used to typing blindly. For 8 years I have used two Natural 4000s at home and at work. I switched to this one because it clicks loudly and the key travel began to strain a lot. Disappointment! That's what prevented the Natural 4000 fromā€¦

Pros
  • The keys are soft, short-stroke, pleasantly pressed and quickly Hands lie on the stand comfortably.
Cons
  • 1. Development quality. The designers made a mistake of 1-2 mm with the height of the middle leg. It does not reach the support, as a result of which, even with slight pressure on the stand, the rear part will rise. I solved the problem by sticking a higher rubber foot on the battery door. 2. Location of add. keys. This is hell. For 2 years, the only function. the key I hit without looking is backspace. Del, Insert, PgDn, PgUp - always with eyes. Even the arrows take some getting used to. But this is more or less solved in a couple of months. 3. This is the first keyboard in my life that has broken. The buttons U, K and E in 2022 stopped working. I tried to disassemble - it did not work. The screws are unscrewed, the lining is removed, then the bolt. It is non-separable and completely non-repairable.

I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

in dry residue. It is worth buying only if you are used to ergonomic keyboards. There is no particular alternative, cheaper models are sets, they have too long key travel and are very noisy. I will buy for the fourth time if something new does not come out. The device does not have the same reliability, it was created by a designer, not an engineer for everyday use - it is very expensive to repeat my path.

Pros
  • Since 1998, I have been using Microsoft products - Natural Keyboard Elite - is still alive, but the appearance and keys have been erased. The habit of using "curved" keyboards has been preserved. The main advantage is that you are used to it, and you can no longer refuse. Yes, here the mouse from the kit is immediately "sent" either to the spouse or the child . here there is only a top-end mouse from Logitech - all these are personal preferences, therefore consider my review a bad habit. A practical person should not even look in the direction of this product.
Cons
  • The first keyboard did not live until the end of the warranty period. I took the second one. The second lived a little longer and died in the same way. I bought a third one . the beauty of Claudia disappears after a quarter - unless, of course, you blow off the dust from it and use it once a week. For me, this is a working tool and I use it every day. All gloss and shine, as well as the pillow, very quickly lose their original appearance. And God forbid you spill something.

There are several shortcomings, but, it corresponds to the norm.

In general, in general, everything is fine. I'm used to the function keys and backspace. But today some garbage started to happen in the editor, dialog boxes pop up. I thought that the mouse causes bugs (I have 3 connected, on the left, right hand and trackball). Turned off - the problem continued. Googled it, found out that the keys can stick very easily. I began to look carefully - indeed F5 imperceptibly stuck to the edge, hooking, very imperceptibly. Price and quality leaves much to beā€¦

Pros
  • Comfortable, ergonomic, saves hands and wrists. What is the keyboard, what is the mouse.
Cons
  • Poor quality keys. Especially the top row of function keys. The backspace is pressed with a crackle if it is not pressed in the center. Function keys sometimes stick. And in general, for some reason, this keyboard has a problem with sticky keys, read on the microsoft website. There is no off button.

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

While one day of use, I like everything, expensive, but I do not regret the money spent. Reviewed many different keyboards when choosing. Logitech Ergo was recently released, but it has a price of about 14 thousand and no removable digital module, and according to reviews it is the most ergonomic. I read somewhere that they often sell already tested. When buying, I looked, it seems to be nothing, although not only from the factory, there are barely noticeable scuffs, maybe they showed it toā€¦

Pros
  • 1) Keyboard. Hands are very comfortable, naturally. There is a significant difference after using the cheap Gembird keyboard. For 3 months of remote work with not the most convenient workplace, my hands began to get tired. But you really need to get used to it. I'm not very good at blind typing and only in 2022. 2) Mouse. After a lot of reviews, I thought it would be very inconvenient. I think that my palm is larger than average, but the mouse turned out to be quite comfortable, no worse than my Logitech. A separate plus is the Numpad remote module (it turned out that I almost never use it), as well as magnetic latches. Space saving is not very significant, but still convenient and noticeable. Design - space.
Cons
  • Still, I would like an LED in capslock, scroll lock and numpad. I don't think it will drain the battery much or make the keyboard more expensive. I would also like a backlight for the keys, but then I understand that this is already a different price. I would also like a detachable and replaceable palm rest and the ability to replace the USB transmitter like in Logitech.

Good and quality product, but there are flaws.

I have been using the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 keyboards for 10 years now and kept looking at this one. Stopped the wretched location of the arrows and inc / del / home. As a result, I took it to connect to the laptop because of the wireless connection and the mouse (I've been using the same one for 3-4 years already).

The product is really good, Im glad I bought it.

In general, I am satisfied with the purchase - I unloaded my shoulders, turned my chest, my back stopped hurting. The mouse turned out to be a nice bonus - initially I did not plan to use it, but I quickly got used to it - a really convenient thing. Unfortunately, the build quality leaves much to be desired. There are no worthy analogues in our market. I work by connecting it to a MAC. It is not possible for me to switch to a regular keyboard for myself.

Pros
  • Comfortable ergonomic keyboard, short key travel, large keys
Cons
  • - The Alt key stuck, I had to change it - I managed it under warranty. - An extremely inconvenient separate keyboard with numbers - it has a kind of coin cell battery. This is the first one I stopped using. - After 4 years, rubber peeled off the mouse, then the mouse died altogether. The mouse is actually very comfortable, but with the correct position of the hands on the keyboard, there is no need for such a mouse, I replaced it with a regular wired one. - Five years after cleaning, some keys stopped working. He twisted, turned, bent in different planes, only the shift together with the C key stopped working. - The fabric on the keyboard is dirty to the state of "removed from the homeless." How to clean it - I'll never know.

I would definitely recommend the purchase, I don't think there is anything wrong with it.

It would be more interesting if the keyboard was sold without a mouse and numpad. The wrist stopped numbing at the end of the day, so the device copes with its task. The mouse, by the way, at first seems like a huge cobblestone, but you quickly get used to it. The arm on it is not parallel to the table, but at an angle, which is why the nerves at the wrist are not pinched.

Pros
  • Excellent ergonomics, clear key travel. Convenient large Ctrl, Alt, Win, space. The Esc, F1-F12 keys have a slightly different feel - when pressed, it is immediately clear that you did not miss. The keyboard is solid and stable - nothing slurps or dangles.
Cons
  • Fn switch is hard. Numpad didn't work at first. I unscrewed the battery compartment, took it out, and there the substrate was an edge over the contact (not the one that needs to be pulled out for the first time, but which closes the circuit). Moved it under the contact and everything became normal.
