Perixx Periduo-406, Wired Mini Ergonomic Split Keyboard and Vertical Mouse Combo with Adjustable Palm Rest and Membrane Low Profile Keys, UK Layout

Products look good. Like the fact that you can easily get access to the batteries in each item.Keyboard layout good and small enough to carry in your bag with your laptop. Mouse is a good shape and easy to use.

The keyboard has a very low sensitive smooth action - it is a complete contrast from the last keyboard I had, which was a long travel mechanical keyboard, so this one takes a bit of getting used to. Once you're used to it you can type very rapidly. Only criticism is that because the keys are so low and the gap between them is small, it's difficult to feel which key is which, without looking down (eg Enter button, which number key is at the end of the row etc). I like that both the keyboard and mouse are wired. wireless is fun and all, but when wireless devices miss clicks or take time to wake up, it's very frustrating. The mouse is brilliant. Didn't realise it was going to be such an ergonomic shape. Only criticisms are: it's quite light so when I right click I end up scooting it across the desk. Also the forward and back thumb buttons are slightly heavier in operation than my last mouse and also not under my thumb. Maybe my hands are too big. Otherwise the mouse click is delightful, unlike any other I have ever used. It's got a beautifully light, sensitive, yet soft and silky feel. The red light underneath the mouse is incredibly bright if you pick it up!

There's nothing else at this price point, so the Perixx ergonomic keyboard gets good marks for value.It's a compact and smart design, not as big and showy as the Microsoft equivalents, and I like that. It's comfortable to use, with a much better hand position than a straight keyboard. The scroll wheel in the middle is 2d (i.e. scrolls sideways too), which is nice. It even functions as a middle mouse button, though I haven't found a use for that. The lock indicators are clear, lighting up green.The build quality is not so great. The keys feel a little wobbly, the case creaks if you put any pressure on it, and the printing is starting to wear thin on the most common letters after a couple of months. I found the cable position, sticking out from the centre, inconvenient, and had to use tape to make it go to the side.But it works fine, and is OK for the price.The mouse is less useful. It's too small for a vertical grip (my hands aren't an unusual size), and has a slippery coating which makes it tricky to handle. Unlike the one on the keyboard, the wheel is only one-dimensional. And the back/forward buttons are placed out of reach unless you have a second thumb. Treat it as a free gift.

Mouse nicely fits in the hand, The keyboard itself is .... keys nothing great, touching them feels odd, the corners are somewhat uncomfortable when typing quickly because of the square edges.the wrist holder is all plastic.. uncomfortableThe only satisfying thing is the amount of space it takes is good.Spending most of my time of the day, typing I wouldn't recommend it. Microsoft older gen ergonomic keyboard 4000 I used before was ways better.

I used to use the perixx keyboard-mouse combo but this 3-in-1 set is definitely an upgrade. I didn’t use the number pad that often so I went with this option and i’m glad because its so much better to transport too. Another plus is the mouse is smaller with a more round shape so its way more comfortable and clicks are very quiet and gentle. Keyboard keys are good but the shift buttons could’ve been larger (you’ll get used to it though). Five stars because all three items use the same USB receiver as well and specs are as advertised.

It looked so much better in the photos. The keys bind and scrape. The narrowest are 8.5mm wide, the widest are 28mm wide. The whole thing creaks and wobbles when on the magnetic stand. If this is the product of constant innovation and ergonomic design, we're all doomed! I have cheap keyboards over 10 years old that feel better.

I've used a Goldtouch split keyboard at work for many years to avoid pain in my hands. I thought I'd try one of these at home as a cheaper alternative. It isn't really the same thing though. The keys start off straight at the edges and gradually curve inwards, so your hands aren't in the same natural position as with a split keyboard. Also, to accommodate the gradual curve, the keys are various different sizes, which makes it quite difficult to touch type - lots of mis-keying. On the plus side, it's cheap and the mouse is a perfectly acceptable vertical hold mouse.

Previouly had the wireless microsoft ergonomoc keyboard which is great but usb stopped working so expensive to replace . So thought i would try this which is a third of the price was impressed especially love the mouse such a good shape . Good value for money
