Product Review by Liam: (meet our team)

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
