I'll list the highlights first, then get into the descriptive details for keyboard aficionados. PROS: - Size – compact, comparable to MS Elite - Arrow key configuration – standard - Key type – chiclet/laptop - Key noise – quiet, gentle “thunking” sound - Key tactile feedback – firm, satisfying - Key travel – a bit shallower than Elite but more than a Mac keyboard or many newer laptops. It reminds me how laptop keyboards were 10-15 years ago - Ergonomic curve – comparable to MS Elite, but even more comfortable - Detached num pad - Num pad backspace key - *Padded palm rest, feels a bit like suede (see note at end) - No dedicated media keys (there IS a Calculator key)–which I realize would be a con for some - Strong signal / dongle (NOT Bluetooth) - Detachable riser CONS: - Detached num pad - F key split between F6 and F7 - F key hard click - PgUp/PgDn/Insert key configuration UNKOWN: - Battery life First, I want to say how much I *LOVE* the arrow key configuration. I could write a freaking sonnet about how happy this arrow key config makes me! As is, I will just write a thorough review of all the reasons I am very pleased with this keyboard, and the few things I don’t care for much. I was trained to use keyboard shortcuts as a transcriptionist, including shift+arrow and CTRL+shift+arrow to move quickly through text while editing. The tiny diamond config arrow keys of the Elite keyboard have been the biggest problem for me since being trained/forced to work that way. You can’t easily keep the left hand on the CTRL and shift keys and the right hand on the arrows, using 3 fingers to easily arrow L, R, U and D without making a very tight, weird “claw” that gets uncomfortable quickly. I had to switch to the MS 4000, but that was too big–on my desk AND for my petite hands overall–and the keys got harder to push the older it got, which led me to replacing it with the Sculpt. I've had carpal tunnel syndrome (and surgery) -- and I'm educated in ergonomics and proper technique. This keyboard is the best investment I've made in an ergo keyboard since the MS Elites I bought years ago and which died. I have done a lot of research on ergo keyboards over the past 10 years. I’ve tried a couple different Kinesis boards. I’ve tried the Goldtouch Pro. I’ve used the MS 4000 extensively after the Elites were no longer available at my old employer. I’ve used an Elite at work and at home off and on since 1998 (20 years). It’s been my favorite keyboard, yet it’s so hard to find and expensive, it was tough to need a new ergo keyboard yet again and decide “now what will I do?” Recent research determined there are even fewer truly affordable choices for ACTUAL ergonomic keyboards than there were 10 years ago. There aren’t many under $300, and even fewer under $100. Finding this one under $75 and ending up loving it was pleasantly surpising. Most of the actual ergo boards are mechanical (clicky) keys, which I cannot stand anymore. I used to love how they felt when typing, and the sound didn’t bug me. But when you listen to people talk 8 hours a day for a living, and your employer rates you on how accurately you hear them, you really need to eliminate other noises which can interfere with that–but I digress! My research led me to the MS Sculpt being the closest in size to the MS Elite, and it had the traditional arrow key configuration which was top of my list of “must haves” as I scoured the interwebs for my options. I have been using the Sculpt for a couple months at home for light business and personal use. It is quite solid, which surprised me given its slim profile. Despite its low profile, it still achieves good ergonomic positioning. It has a detachable riser for the front. I hate those things, but I know a lot of people like them. MS was nice enough to give us the option on this, like with the MS 4000. Its keys are flat, WITHOUT sharp edges that so many chiclet keys have these days. They are low profile but sturdy, like a high end laptop used to feel. They feel a little further apart than the MS Elite keys (which I currently have at work again), but I haven't actually measured or compared them side by side. It's very slight, though. Not enough to throw me off more than a few seconds as I get acclimated again each time I sit down at it. It’s a nice compromise between the MS Elite and the MS 4000. The only keys I am still getting used to are the Delete, Insert, PgUp, and PgDn keys–and if I wasn’t switching back and forth between the Elite at work and Sculpt at home, I probably wouldn’t still be struggling. Essentially, this keyboard combines the standard arrow configuration of the MS 4000 with the relative size and curvature of the MS Elite, and the key style and feedback of a well-constructed laptop of the late 90s. The membrane switches are stiff enough to give good feedback without requiring pressing too hard. The detached num pad is a bone of contention for some users, and I can't quite decide how I feel about it. Sometimes I like that it's detached and I can move it up when I know I won't need it, moving my mouse closer to the keyboard (reduces neck/shoulder/arm fatigue). Sometimes I need to use it, and I can pull it back into position beside the keyboard. But sometimes I forget and grab both ends--like I would my MS Elite--to reposition it, and it doesn't work. It annoys me a bit that I can't pick "it" up because "it" is a "them"... and I have to pull them back toward me. I have a tendency to push them a little bit forward as I work because my work surface at home is a rather slick table. I am going to get an extra-large mouse pad type thing to put under the whole keyboard and mouse. I have one at work under my Elite, and other than when I bump it with my chair or something, it never moves. Given how well the MS Sculpt stays in place on the "slickery" table, I am confident the mat will solve my issues as well as the one at work did with the Elite. So, once I do that, I think my overall feeling about the separate num pad will be that it’s actually more helpful than annoying. One VERY cool positive that this num pad has, which many do not, is the BACKSPACE key at the top right. I freaking LOVE when keyboards have that! It also has a Calculator key to launch that app. It’s the closest thing to a media key this set has. I know a lot of people love media keys, but I loathe them. They’re a waste of space for me. I don’t use them except when I unintentionally bump one. I’m glad this keyboard doesn’t have them. It makes the keyboard more compact, and it keeps me from wasting time closing programs I don’t use. The media keys are integrated with the F keys, and you slide a tab to select regular F key use or secondary use of media keys, monitor settings, etc. The F key issues are minimal for me. I quickly get used to the fact that the F keys are split like the actual number keys – between 6 and 7 – instead of between 5 and 6. Again, it’s mostly an issue because I am switching between a Sculpt at home and an Elite at work. However, given how much I love the Sculpt, and the fact that I have had several problems with keys on my Elite activating as I typed and edited this–I will probably be replacing my work keyboard with a Sculpt really soon! Battery life is difficult to judge. I’ve had it a couple months, and I use it between 8-24 hours a week. Haven’t had to change batteries yet. If I don’t have to change it for 3 more months, I’ll be satisfied. Two AAA batteries every 3-6 mos is fine with me. I’ll try to remember to update the review after I’ve had it longer, or after I have experience using one at work, which would be extensive use 8-9 hours daily, 5 days a week. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this keyboard, and I wish I'd gotten one sooner! I have spent SO much money on ergo keyboards over the years, though, which were such disappointments, I was quite gun-shy on trying this one. I'm quite glad I took the leap, though. Also -- I highly recommend getting a “Protection Plan” on this, or any electronic item you invest more than $50 in and NEED to have. For a few extra bucks, you can get easy, hassle-free replacements of products. Electronics are like the people who make them -- imperfect, and occasionally you come across one that's a dud. I figure that if you're spending over $50 on a keyboard, it's because you are choosy enough or have physical needs which require something specific. The protection plan is an investment in your own peace of mind, health, and well-being. A few bucks for a guaranteed replacement if it goes belly up? Worth it. *Padded Palm Rest “PRO”– Palm and wrist rests are only supposed to be used for pauses *between* typing and mousing, not for resting or pressing on while performing the actions. While this keyboard’s lightly padded, synthetic leathery feel is nice, you should NOT actually rest your palms on it WHILE typing. That is how I exacerbated my carpal tunnel syndrome to the point of needing surgery–by subconsciously pressing on the palm rest while typing. The more busy and stressed I was, the harder I pressed. AFTER my CTR surgery, I realized I had been doing that, and I retrained myself to stop it. I also had an ergonomic specialist consultation (thanks to my employer!), and they told me my fingers should dangle from my hands, which should be held above the keys, with my arms at a 90-degree angle (L-shape) as seen from the side. Rest between typing only. If you need support, get a chair with arms or get arm supports that attach to your desk. The support under your forearms can relieve a lot of shoulder/neck tension and strain. But that’s too much weight to put on small points such as the wrists or palms.

I am a software engineer, so I'm on the keyboard all day, every day. I touch type, including special characters, and am reasonably fast. I'm pretty picky about my keyboards. I have a new favorite keyboard. First of all, be aware this keyboard has a Quirk, that lots of folks seem to have run into: The wireless works fine, as long as: - The receiver dongle is not more than two or three feet away from the keyboard AND - The receiver is in a direct unobstructed line of sight with the keyboard. I have one at work and one at home, and for both I bought a USB hub which I keep on my desktop nearish the keyboard. Once I did this I've had no further issues. The one I have at work I've been using continuously and heavily since ~June 2017. Once I worked out the above two things, I had no further issues, for going on four months now. But if you violate either of the above two factors, the keyboard will work fine - mostly. But occasionally you'll encounter the keyboard going 'dead' - completely unresponsive - for a few seconds up to five minutes or so. Then it comes back, as if nothing ever happened. This had me looking for all sorts of system and network issues ... Occasionally the keyboard will drop key events, such as 'key-Delete-down' or 'key-Delete-up', or whatever. It's inconsistent. When it starts, this will happen randomly, often enough to totally disrupt your work, for an hour or so. Then it will stop happening, and be fine for 1 to 10 days. Then it will happen again. Basically I narrowed it down to a weak wireless connection between the dongle and the keyboard itself. Whenever the dongle was further away, or the battery getting old, or there was a lot of wireless traffic in my area of the building, I might see issues. Changing the battery will make you think that fixed it, but it didn't. The problem will return. (Once I figured out and fixed the above two factors, I put the old/original battery back in the keyboard as an experiment. The keyboard worked fine, and is still working fine on that battery.) After six months of happy use, I bought one for my home system as well. It worked fine - for a couple months - then I started to see the above issues. I'd put the dongle in a USB port on the back of my computer, which put it about three feet from the keyboard in a direct line. But the computer case, parts of my desk et cetera were physically between the two. I installed the dongle in a USB hub on top of my desk, about 1.5 feet from the keyboard, with nothing in between the dongle and keyboard, and all the issues disappeared, and have not returned. So now this is my new favorite keyboard. Overall it feels great and is at least as comfortable as my previous favorites (see below). The keys are short throw, fast, and quiet, like a good laptop keyboard, but a little noisier. It's definitely quieter than any other non-laptop keyboard I've ever used. It's significantly narrower than any other keyboard I've used, a little wider than a standard keyboard with no number pad. I like this aa lot, as it lets me put my trackball comfortably close for the first time ever. That's definitely a plus. The arrow keys are in an inverted 'T' layout on the lower right, close enough that I quickly learned to use them efficiently without having to stop and look for them. I do occasionally hit the Left-arrow key when I go for the right Control key (which I use a lot). But that's probably my lack of precision. The PageUp/PageDown etc keys are definitely in a new and unique arrangement. I wasn't sure I liked it at first, and worried that their proximity might mess up my use of the Enter, backslash, and Backspace keys, but that didn't happen. The Delete key is large, is two rows tall, and is just to the right of the Enter and Backspace keys. I figured I never use those keys, so I didn't really care. To my surprise, once I got comfortable with the keyboard, I found I -was- starting to use those keys. The layout is actually great, and I use them constantly now where I never did on previous keyboards. As others have pointed out, the function keys are somewhat mushy buttons, definitely not the same mechanics as the other keys, with minimal tactile feedback. I rarely use them - EXCEPT for the Esc key. If you are a heavy UNIX/Linux vi or vim user, you'll find the Esc key pretty annoyiing. It will slow you down. (Time to switch to emacs!) The wrist rest is comfortable, with minimal give. It will start to show a bit of wear marks after 6 months or so of use, but nothing significant. I've never used the number pad thingie, and probably never will. Formerly my favorite keyboards were: - Fellowes Microban Split Design Keyboard, Black (98915) Still like, have a few. Dislikes: Largish, noisy to type on, left alt key is not -quite- in the expected place, arrow keys are not in a 'T' layout, /page up/down etc keys are not in a 'normal' 3 wide by 2 tall layout. Definitely still usable. Likes: Best, most comfortable long-term layout (until the Sculpt). - Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite USB (the original, NOT the 3000, 4000, 'comfort', etc.) Still like, have a few (including the very rare black version). Dislikes: All the same as the Fellowes, except the alt keys are in the correct place here. For gaming, this keyboard doesn't handle chords or very fast keystrokes well - sometimes doesn't 'see' some. But never had an issue in any other situation. A little noisier than the Fellowes (to where coworkers have commented on it). This annoyed me enough to try the Fellowes. Also, they are generally very robust - But don't spill any liquid into one, even a little. The 'b' and some keys nearby will stop working - permanently. No amount of drying, cleaning, disassembly and cleaning will restore it. It's dead. By contrast the Fellowes keyboards seem to shrug off such accidents. They come in ivory only, unless you manage to find one of the very rare black ones. (I didn't know they existed until I stumbled across one on Amazon Warehouse Deals). Likes: The ONLY Ergo keyboard for many years I found to be an improvement over a 'standard' layout. And it is definitely much better, much more comfortable for me. I bought several as backups, used them at home and work. They're robust: I've used the same ones for years with no issues, and I have a heavy touch (learned on a manual typewriter). Relieved a bunch of minor complaints, mostly muscle tension. Happy typing. Update: 04/12/19 I have the same keyboard at work. I've used the original batteries since I got it. (I replaced them briefly while debugging the wireless issue, but then put the originals back). I have finally had to replace them (red light flashing on the kb for weeks, but finally it just quit). I got it about 4/18. So the batteries lasted exactly a year. I'm a software engineer, and use the keyboard heavily all day, almost every day.
