Product Description

Kensington Comfort Type USB Keyboard - This is your basic keyboard, but with a twist. Well, more like a slant actually. See, the keys are slanted inward, which encourages you to use proper wrist positioning while you type. The end result is increased comfort.

Decent No Frills Keyboard4
I've used this keyboard for about a year now. As a developer who is at the keyboard constantly, it gets well used. The "Comfort Type" feature works more or less as advertised -- it doesn't require retraining your fingers at all, and does somewhat assist your typing, especially when reaching distant keys. Here are my only quibbles:

1) The backslash key is in the 'wrong' place. This is a pain, but you can adapt in a few days. 2) The matte surface of the keys and keyboard itself will start to wear and gloss with use. The keys and surfaces that are less seldom used collect a lot of 'gunk' and are hard to clean. So the keyboard ends up with spots that are glossy and spots that are nasty, and it's hard to do anything about it. 3) Due to the construction of the keyboard, it hard to blow debris out of the lower pan, even if you disassemble it. 4) Poor placement of rubber feet under the keyboard causes metal parts to scrape your desk -- easily fixed with add-on feet. 5) You cannot type quietly on this keyboard -- the keys rattle if you just glide your fingers over their surfaces.

Aside from those fairly minor or aesthetic issues, it's a decent basic keyboard with a mostly standard layout without all the annoying bells and whistles (ie, it works).

Just GREAT!5
This is my second purchase of a comfort keyboard. They are great!!! Easy to use. Comfortable to type on. Everyone in my house has replaced their keyboards with this one.

This is a great fit for me!!5
UPS just delivered my keyboard. I plugged it in and it was ready. I immediately started to type a letter I had on my desk and found this keyboard very comfortable and easy to use. I was using a small, cheap Dell keyboard and this is much better. It doesn't slide all over the desk and the small right Shift key isn't a problem at all. I don't use the back slash key so it isn't an issue because it is in a different location. The keys make a muffled sound and are much quieter than the clicky Dell keys. I have had it one hour and am very happy and would recommend it. Programmers would not like the position change of the back slash keyboard. Otherwise, it is worth the money and I 'feel' like I am typing faster and that's pretty good since my speed is about 85 wpm.
