  • Kinesis Freestyle 2 Keyboard Frees up hand pain.
Style: PC Layout
Went to hand therapist for ways to keep my hands from hurting with Carpal Tunnel. Almost cried when I saw her "tented" keyboard. It is truly awesome and so helpful for the different positions which it goes into: higher so your hands are not stressed or stretched out. Has a resting pad on both left and write keyboards. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • OMG, the best keyboard EVE!
Style: Mac Layout
It seems I type all day, and have gone through keyboards, have broken keys, and have particular criteria I need in a keyboard, and specific things I don't want. Important to me: ergonomic is #1. And part of that includes NOT having a numeric keypad attached. It means I have to over-reach and take my hands off the keyboard to use my mouse which slows me down. I've used the Microsoft Sculpt and loved it -- that is, until the doggle (?, the USB thing you plug into your computer) stopped communicating to the keyboard. So I bought another one. Except the new one had the same problem the old one developed after several years of great use. So I returned it. And the search was one. I got another one which had the same problem (the lag time between hitting the keys and it typing was either terribly slow, or the keys I typed never showed up. And then I started reviewing the reviews much more thoroughly, and it seemed NONE of the reviews of the ergonomic keyboards without numeric keypads had unanimously positive reviews. Except 2: one of them was about $200 + an additional $150 or $200 for the lifters. Well, if this thing works best with the lifters (which all reviews say it does), why would that not be included? Plus, it had features I didn't like and didn't really want, including bright red, blue and green lights on the keys, and keys you could program (largely for programmers, which I am not). Another feature I want is for the caps lock key to be backlit so I can tell at a glance if it's on or not. And then a friend sent me the link to this keyboard. It had all the features I wanted, none of the features I didn't want . . . at a fraction of the price. And the reviews were ALL positive. It's still costs more than the average run-of-the mill keyboard. But, when my friend compared it to when he buys a guitar.... he doesn't mind spending the money on a Les Paul. Well, my keyboard is how I make music!, and so I decided to go for it. It's my Les Paul! It was instant plug-and-play, I have the lifters in the halfway position, and am totally in love with it. It took zero time to get used to. So what that it has a cord. This keyboard is a dream. I'm so grateful to have found it!!!!!! You won't be disappointed. Oh, one more little thing. I use the little bumps that remind my fingers when they're on the home keys (or not!). These little bumps were rather little, and hard to sense. So I just added a little thing (a textured tape) to make the bumps bigger, and now my fingers find the home keys without my having to look! ... show more

  • Almost perfect first split keyboard
Style: PC Layout
This keyboard fixed my shoulder pain after about 2 days of using it. I write code all day and this really helped improve my desk posture. I only give this keyboard 4 stars because it lacks a few key features I feel like it should have at this price: 1: no backlight - this is annoying in low lighting situations. 2: I find the blue secondary labels on the keys for when it is in 'fn' mode hard to read due to low contrast. If the keyboard had a backlight, it could be used to change the colors of the keys in 'fn' mode and that would greatly improve the typing experience 3: the "Insert" key is in "fn" mode - this is very annoying when pasting lines in a console with"Shit + Insert". I bought 2 of these so that I can have one at home and one at work. I also bought a number pad for work because the "fn" mode number pad is too hard to read/learn. I would gladly upgrade to a version with some simple backlights, and a better placement of the "Insert" key. ... show more

  • By far the greatest ergonomic adjustment capability of the many ergonomic keyboards I have tried
Style: PC Layout
I love, LOVE this new keyboard. About 15 years ago, I had my left wrist fused because of arthritic pain, which means that I can't rotate my had at all at the write, only the elbow. Therefore, flat keyboards are just terrible for me now, and as a result, I've tried about every "ergonomic" keyboard that I could find. This is by far the best ability I've had to adjust the keyboard to fit my needs -- tilt, splay, spread apart. It's fantastic. In addition, the keys have a very nice touch, firm but not stiff. I have also never had a keyboard with Windows hotkeys before, so having COPY, CUT, PASTE, DEL, and UNDO are a real bonus for me, saving the CTRL-(key) combos that these replace. Since all of those are on the lower left side of a normal keyboard, my frozen wrist makes it more difficult to do these than normal. I almost never use a keypad, so that's not at issue with me. I could not be happier! ... show more

  • Buy it!! You won’t regret it
Style: PC Layout
This thing is amazing! It does plug in doesn’t have a battery. But this has spoiled me from all other keyboard. Definitely helps with hand cramping. Will not regret!

  • Adjustable angle; quiet keys
Style: PC Layout
The adjustable angle has really helped with the pain in my arms. I like the quiet keys, too; it's less intrusive when I'm having a conversation.

  • Great ergonomics, terrible key ghosting
Style: Mac Layout
I've been using this as my daily driver at work for over 6 months now. It is very comfortable and helped with growing carpal tunnel problems. Also helped correct years of bad typing habits. BUT: there is a key ghosting issue on the left hand side. If you hold left shift and a middle row key like ASD, the keyboard will not register a press on the keys directly above. So I constantly get blocked when trying to type "DE" with the "E" getting dropped and other similar annoying situations. Would make this absolutely useless as a gaming keyboard. There is a firmware update available on the manufacturer website, but it did not help at all. Otherwise this would be a perfect 5 star product. ... show more
