Pros:
- The sound they keys make when pushed allows me to feel confident I pushed a key.
- The fact that it is a little harder to press the keys cuts down on pressing keys by accident.
- It is backlit, so key are easier to see.
- It is full size.
- Keys have more space between them.
- It is very inexpensive!
Cons:
- It is wired, so it does add one more wire to your computer space. It is good however that it does not require batteries or need to be recharged.
- The wire is long, so it is hard to tuck away neatly. The keyboard does come with a velcro strip on the wire to fold extra wire into.
- Since the keys are a bit tougher to press, fingers work a little harder which may slow the process down a little bit.
- It is made for PCs, so if you use a Mac some (unessential) keys will be inaccurate.

Additional verified review of this product, submitted by Eleanor:
I finally used the mechanical keyboard. I am quite happy with it. Except for a separate numeric keypad, the keys function as they should. Even the "Windows" key works.
I tried a shortcut combination (CTRL + RIGHT ARROW) to advance the cursor a word at a time through a document. It worked! The Left arrow combination worked also. The problem I was having was moving the cursor.
After attaching a mouse to my laptop, I was able to move the cursor and all the keys worked as specified. The feature I especially liked is the keyboard lights up so that I can find the keys I wish to press.
I tutor an ESL Conversation Class. I primarily use the laptop to prepare instructional materials. I might start using my laptop to do other things. So far I'm satisfied with my purchase. If there was a feature I would liked even more it would be to have a wireless keyboard.
