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.

Let me start by saying I type A LOT. I'm a computer programmer by profession so with that I use just about every key on the keyboard. I was on the fence of buying this keyboard for a LONG time. My biggest hesitation were the mixture of extremely positive or extremely negative reviews. I can't stand finding products that have such polarizing takes. I tried a number of stores and no one had one on display...recently I happened into a Microcenter and they happened to have one in a box on the shelf...I had to peek. So I opened it up, put my hands on it, and ultimately decided I NEEDED to try this keyboard. I ended up buying from Amazon simply because Microcenter didn't have the unit without the mouse. So, onto my review... I use this plugged up to an Apple Macbook Pro. Yeah, it seems wrong I know, but nobody in the Apple universe seems to believe in ergonomic. My wrists started hurting years ago typing on the flat keyboards and I made the switch and I will never go back. I currently own 4 ergonomic keyboards and this one is so far, my favorite, and not by a small margin. So you'll have an idea of what my other keyboards are for comparison sake, here they are: Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 - great wired keyboard with some minor annoyances Microsoft Wireless Comfort 5000 - another great keyboard, wireless, but a little hard feeling and squishy key feel Adesso Tru-Form Pro 308 - Love the idea, not great build quality, buggy USB - flakes out on ocassion Now that I've been typing on the Sculpt Ergonomic for well over a month now, I must say I absolutely love the feel of the keyboard. It is INCREDIBLY comfortable to type on. The key response is very fast, and the feel is just excellent. I type with fantastic accuracy and speed with this particular keyboard. Everything from writing emails, technical documents and programming, the keyboard is just excellent. Now, let me get into some of the details that people will find useful in making the decision for themselves.... Pros: - Key sizing and spacing are perfect for me (I'm a 6' guy with regular sized hands) - I love the tactile click of the chiclet style keys - very reminiscent of typing on an Apple keyboard - The wrist pad is very comfortable - The magnetically attached riser for the front is perfect for me - helps keep my hands at a good angle and height for typing - I love the magnetic battery / receiver cover - TINY USB receiver - I love how small it is (could be a problem if you forget where you put it though!) - Love the separate number pad - allows you to move your mouse closer to the keyboard - nice ergo feature - As mentioned, very responsive - Works perfectly with my Macbook Pro - I toyed with remapping the Windows key and the Alt key but it really doesn't take long to get used to them being switched - Love the split spacebar. So easy to hit with either thumb with a simple tap (not the same can be said on the Natural 4000) - Love the look and size of this thing - it's small, elegant and cool looking, IMO - COMFORTABLE!!! Absolutely no pain using this thing 9+ hours each day. Cons - these are not deal breakers to me...as a matter of fact, I love this keyboard so much I'm thinking about buying another one for my other computers to replace the Natural 4000 - The FN switch key - REALLY Microsoft?! C'mon - just give us a FN key like all other keyboards on the planet. I hate the switch key, but fortunately I never use it - would I use those keys more if not for the switch? Probably. But because of that annoyance I find that I'll just adjust the volume in the OS via the software or I'll learn the keystroke for doing a search, etc. So basically I leave mine set to the F-key setting and not the special keys and I just roll with them...irritating to be sure - F-keys are not grouped as with most other keyboards - being a programmer I use the function keys quite a bit, so it's taken a bit of relearning the feel of where the keys are. - Top row of F-keys and others are not the same style of key. They don't have that same "travel" feel that the rest of the keys on the keyboard have. It's annoying that they didn't use the same type of switches, but whatever. - Layout of the Delete, Insert, Page Up, Page Down, etc. - these are a brand new layout and for someone who's used to the standard groupings on keyboards from the past 20 years, this has definitely taken some getting used to. I still find that I'll hit the delete key when I'm reaching for something completely unrelated. I'm still not 100% good with these keys but I'm getting better. I use Home and End quite a bit and those have taken some getting used to. - Wish there was a backlit option for the keys To wrap this up...Honestly it should probably be a four star for the review, but I didn't want anyone to look at my review and think I'm on the fence with this thing. I LOVE THIS KEYBOARD. It's comfortable, it's fast, and I can use it with both my Windows and Apple computers. Of all the keyboards I've used in my life, and that's quite a few, this one is my favorite. Is it going to be for everyone, probably not because some of the cons above might actually be deal breakers for some, but for me, those tradeoffs are small in the pain relief and the enjoyment I get out of typing on this keyboard. Is there room for improvement? Absolutely. If they were to address the list of cons above, they'd have something beyond special. So really, this is probably a 4.5 star review for me, but I plan on buying another one soon!
