Finally -- An Inexpensive, Functional, Reliable Dvorak Keyboard
This is a lightweight, button membrane keyboard that is Dvorak only. I own a $150 Dvorak keyboard that has mechanical keys and is switchable between Dvorak and Qwerty. This keyboard is, by far, a much better value. While I like the mechanical keyboard, I was not prepared to spend another $150 for a replacement. The vast majority of the time I don't need a switchable keyboard. I simply need a regular keyboard in Dvorak so I can actually touch type. While the mechanical keys do feel nice, they don't feel $150 worth of nice. The keys on this keyboard feel excellent. The pressure to actuate is good - not hard, not soft. The keys "break" cleanly so that you know the key has made contact.While the Enter key is a bit different, it is easy to get used to. The quality of this keyboard is on par with any keyboard the company I work for would purchase. It is a good, everyday commodity keyboard that will do the job without breaking your wallet - and it's Dvorak.It is an excellent value.

Works great with Android, No keyboard input change!
Finally found a solution for my Android Phone. Ever since I upgraded to the Fold 4, I no longer had an option to select Dvorak for the keyboard input. I don't understand why they would remove this option. I want the option to use Dex with a monitor but could not get Dvorak input. This keyboard is already wired for Dvorak and no software change is necessary. I do wish they offered a smaller keyboard and possibly wireless for traveling but someday that that will happen.

Perfect Quality at Economy Price
Have three of these keyboards. This DigiPlanet model is smooth and quiet. It has good tactile feedback with smooth increase in key pressure until release and completed keystroke! It is also very quiet compared to other keyboards my family uses. I am most comfortable with Dvorak so it is ergonomic for my typing text but for gaming the position of the W,A,S,D, keys becomes problematic if you are not comfortable reassigning keys. This DigiPlanet Dvorak keyboard is USB, of course, allowing me to take it to another computer with an existing Qwerty keyboard and plug into a USB port while the PC is running (verified on our Windows 8, 10 , Linux Mint 19 PCs) giving me ability to type Dvorak right away and then unplug it when done. I often do troubleshooting on a PC that has a Qwerty keyboard so this keyboard is a good economical choice.

Given the price, this is excellent. A keyboard wired for Dvorak at this price is awesome.
First of all, as everyone else has pointed out, this is not meant to be plugged into a computer using a Dvorak layout in the OS. It is meant to be plugged into a computer with the regular US QWERTY layout in the OS, and it allows you to type Dvorak without having to change the layout in the OS.At the price that it is, this would be worth it to me even if it was a horrible keyboard. I don't do good with QWERTY at all, but on the other hand I work a job where I go on site and use other people's computers all the time. This thing fits into my backpack (barely) and I can bring it out to type using Dvorak on their systems without changing any settingsOn the other hand, the typing quality is better than you'd expect for a $20 keyboard. It's smooth, and quiet enough. I average 65 WPM on it, but I seem to average only 60 WPM on a regular cheap keyboard of similar value (using Dvorak layout on the regular keyboard in the OS.)I plan on building an actual mechanical keyboard eventually, but it will be nice to know that I have a cheap Dvorak layout keyboard that I don't have to worry about that I can take on site with me.The only thing that would make it more awesome is if there was a smaller version maybe without the number pad that could be $5 cheaper and fit in my backpack better. That would be the bomb.com.

Just worked!
Plug and play, it just worked! Pursuant to another review, I didn't have to change my keyboard settings from QWERTY. This bad boy is hardwired!I was able to plug in another QWERTY keyboard for friends to use, and I can use both simultaneously. Very handy for those keyboard shortcuts I've got ingrained in my brain.Only weird edge case was that the keyboard drops input if I hit EUH at the same time. I play rhythm games, so this was annoying.

Was great...
I had this for 2 years & it worked great, until today. All of a sudden it just started typing a 4 number sequence non-stop. I took the keys off to see if there was debris causing anything but to no avail. It just went berserk. I plugged an older keyboard in & other are no issues. I'm not sure if it just died or the internal components went bad. It looks like I'm not the first person it has happened to.

It's worth the money and my son loves it.
I brought it as a "toy" because my teenage son and I talked about different type of keyboards. The Dvorak keyboard is highly recommended. It's light weight and the feel of the keyboard is very good. Just unpacked it and plug it into USB. I thought my son would Switch back to QWERTY keyboard after few tries, but he's still using it and getting better to it day by day. It's just money worth for a keyboard, regardless of Dvorak or not. He is now going from QWERTY (daytime) to Dvorak (evening). Overall, if you are looking to try Dvorak, this is the one to get.

Keyboard hard wired dvorak
This keyboard works very well, and it is hard wired dvorak. This should fix the many problems I've had with games that don't understand keyboards can have non qwerty layouts.Just remember, you need to use a qwerty layout in windows for this dvorak keyboard to send the correct keys.I have used this keyboard daily for 5 months now, and it works absolutely perfectly. This is a far better quality keyboard than any other dvorak keyboards I have used in the past (I've used about 6 different dvorak keyboard in the past, and they usually have problems within a month or two of use - mainly the keys fail to trigger unless pressed very hard).
