The number keys on the keyboard are flush with the surface of the keyboard which gives it a sleek modern look but causes problems when trying to press some of the keys. The mouse has a great feel and fits the hand nicely. Unfortunately the the keyboard and mouse constantly loose connection with the receiver. The mouse is the worst of the two. If you are looking for a quality keyboard and mouse this is not the set for you.

While I loved this keyboard when I first purchased it in March because the keys were quiet and you hardly had to touch them to type, just over 6 months later, I hate it.
I use my keyboard 8-9 hours a day, 5-7 days a week. The keys have become stiff, they are noisy and half the time the keyboard won't communicate with the USB receiver and entire words don't get typed.
I'll be going back to Logitech after this disaster of a keyboard.

After 1 year of owning this product, I find that the connection works best at short range and so-so at medium range. Favor the quick launch buttons and ergonomic design. This being my first wireless keyboard, I like not having cords. Great if you just want to use on computer desk but I would not buy again since I need one with longer range.
Exciting to buy, a daily thrill to use.

I've had this thing for a few months now and the power consumption is fairly low considering that I am still using the factory batteries. The keyboard is a comfortable design but the wrist rest is permanently attached. The mouse occasionally does not respond as expected - mainly the scroll wheel does this. When the mouse is properly responding(which is most of the time), it has very good resolution. The range is fairly good. I get about 20 feet without issues.

The keys do not always type and I have to go back and make corrections. It happens so frequently... in every single sentence. And, it is not just one particular key. It also seems to use up batteries too quickly. I have changed brands and checked the dates. I'd like to see a more powerful battery used.

I'm not sure that this is really an ergonomic keyboard, but it works well. The keys have very little travel, like a notebook keyboard, it might take some getting used to for some people. It is very quiet. It is also very WIDE. Make sure you have room on your desk. The mouse is great. If you have Vista, this set has all of the special keys to take advantage of some of the new features and has markings for all of the new mappings for the function keys (So you know what you're doing).

Really like the keyboard. Very quiet and soft to the touch.
Unfortunately, after almost a month I had to get a replacement. Keyboard locked due to "low signal", even though the mouse still worked fine. Now with the replacement, it seems when you use it for a extended period of time, I get the same error message, for the keyboard "low signal". I keep ignoring, but have a feeling that eventually it will lock up...
