PerixxPERIDUO-606 Wireless Mini Ergonomic Keyboard with Portable Vertical Mouse - Adjustable Palm Rest Stand - Membrane Low Profile Keys - US English

This has been the best option I've found for a ergonomic keyboard & mouse that fits a narrow workspace. Good feel to the keys. Mouse is quite comfortable. This setup is relieving my right wrist pain.It takes a little time to get used to the mouse movements due to the different sensor placement as compared to flat mice. And I sometimes accidentally hit the up arrow due to its placement next to a relatively narrow right shift key.Both of these are just part of a normal adjustment period.I would definitely buy this again.

I wanted to love this keyboard badly enough that I actually managed to make it work for me.However, while it’s totally serviceable, I don't know if love is what would describe my feelings toward this keyboard.Right out of the box this keyboard has major issues. Sper long 7, T, N, H, L Shift keys which would stick in the corners due to for whatever reason not being stabilized.Clipping the corners of the box switches, created a wobbly which helped clear the corner when pressing it down with such leverage. I also lubed all the switches with vaseline as some of the better switch lubes contain silicone so they’re no good for membranes. That barely alleviated anything and also made it stick a little in other spots. However I noticed that for a chiclet style keyboard, this thing has a lot of travel. I decided to shorten the travel on the sticking keys by stilting them with toothpicks (method pictured here) which was a 95% fix to the mentioned issue but made them feel too short compared to the other keys so what did I do? I shortened the key travel on all of the keys.What did I end up with? A perfectly serviceable ergonomic keyboard with easy short travel and a compact layout that reduces excess movement. That all sounds very good but since the keys are stilted on those rubber domes, it has increased how rubbery the board feels over all. I wouldn’t call it bad, but it is a little weird to get used to. Solution to this and to the additional wobble stilting produced is to get thin plastic shims and glue them in place to the button of the key caps. This is what I will eventually do and that should definitely improve things. But the other thing I will do is add stabilizers to the weirdly long keys they’ve gone with on some of these letters.I really love the design and layout of this keyboard, I actually like it more than the microsoft surface because of how portable it is. But unfortunately in it;s current implementation, I would never recommend this to anyone unless they were willing to do some enthusiast level modding to get it tip top. Out of the box, it’s not even usable IMHO.I really beseech Perixx to revisit the hardware choices they made for the switches in this keyboard and consider scissor switches or even compact mechanical switches of some sort because this keyboard would be totally killer if it worked.PS: I definitely voided the warranty on this thing to get it to work.

The worst keyboard/mouse I have ever used! Keyboard is glitchy, letters do not always show up when pressed. The mouse is ridiculous, freezes up while using and takes forever to get it active again. As soon as the other keyboard I ordered gets here this thing is going in the trash!

Been hunting for a 70% style ergonomic keyboard to replace the microsoft sculpt which has serious hardware bugs (certain key sequences do not work, all keys stick down eventually, etc) that they're not interested in fixing). After trying the x-bows which cost a fortune and brought back my carpal tunnel worse than i've had in a decade I decided to look for an as-close-to-sculpt knockoff as possible and here we are.Considering the price this is a good keyboard better than the sculpt in that it's almost the same design and comfort level without the major hardware flaws. This is just slightly smaller than the sculpt but otherwise has a similar size and arc so if you're comfortable on any of the microsoft style ergonomics you'll be comfortable enough here. The only deficits comparatively are* The key switches feel slightly stiffer and if you press on the outside edge of wider keys they can stick and not press down as evenly as the scissor switches on the sculpt.* The small size takes some getting used to. the keys on the bottom row are miniscule especially ctrl, win, fn, alt could've been left at a larger size for better usability.* The small magnetic foot on the bottom is a nice swallowable size for my toddler so I removed it and added a couple of stick on pads instead. The sculpt is equally dangerous as it has a magnetic only battery cover. I remain baffled why anyone would design anything with batteries or magnets you can just pop off and swallow but seems a trend in keyboards.update: The key switches cause the keys to have a sort of creaky sound when touched, but not pressed that is slowly driving me nuts as is the stickyness of some of the larger keys when not perfectly pressed. Still serviceable but a bit annoying.

I had been searching for an ergonomic keyboard that would work with my small hands, and I finally found one! The full-sized ones are simply too big for me, and I couldn't get used to typing on them. This one, however, fits well, and it didn't take long to get used to using it. I'm very happy I bought this. The mouse that came with it is also very nice, and I like the fact that they use the same receiver.

I needed a replacement for Microsoft Sculpt ergonomic keyboard. This Perixx technically works. Some of the buttons are quite small, such as the right Shift key. This makes it pretty easy to miss when typing quicky and instead hit Page Down or the arrow key. Also, lately I've noticed that the keyboard gets stuck. Just now, I tried typing numbers but all I got were symbols. Other times when I click on the screen, text gets selected. As though a Shift key is registering as constantly pressed, even though it's not. The fix is to put the computer to Sleep and wake it up. I've done this several times now and I haven't had the keyboard for too long. Typing itself is fine and the ergonomics is fine. Just disappointing that these keyboards (Perixx, Sculpt) are rather shoddy and not reliable.
