I typically like cheap keyboards, and this one feels fine to me. What's more, it has all of the keys I use regularly in their right places, which not all keyboards do, I've been using one prior to this with a half size backspace key, and I kept missing it, the backspace key on this one is as it should be.
A wrinkle to be aware of, apparently the thing to do is plug this in while Windows is running, so it is detected at that time, other wise, when you come to log in Windows might not recognise the keyboard (which is because it's a USB device and the drivers aren't yet loaded, nothing to do with the particular keyboard at all). If that happens, on Vista you can select the on-screen keyboard from the usability options, which are available before you log in, and enter your password on that with your mouse, then go into control panel\keyboards and look around, which "found it" for me.
This has served well for some months, but now it's just gone seven months and several keys are beginning to stick, the first began to be troublesome a month or two ago, and now it's become annoying. I suppose for the money it's not that unfair, but it's not a huge bargain with this level of durability.

Like a fool, I spilled water on the keyboard of my Acer laptop. Although the computer itself was mostly unscathed, liquid has penetrated the keyboard, making my typing even more like gobbledegook than normal. Thankfully, this keyboard was available at a very handy price from Amazon, which I snapped up immediately, and it arrived on my doorstep within twenty-four hours. The proof of its efficiency is here in front of you - I'm typing this review now on it.
Being self-employed, having a working keyboard is an essential for me, and, one presumes, the laptop keyboard will eventually dry out, but this is a more than user-friendly replacement. All I did was plug it in (it's a USB connection), the software loaded up in a matter of seconds, and I was ready to roll.
Construction-wise, the 'board is made of (rather attractive) sleek black plastic, the keys have a nice spring to 'em, and there's a couple of retractable support stands at the back underside of it so it can be angled. There's nothing out of place, and there are also handy push button keys at the top for web navigation and the like. It's also very lightweight, making it eminently portable, although I've not tried dropping it, or (horror or horrors), pouring water on it to see how it fares.
For a budget-price board, I cannot find any drawbacks or quality lapses to make any would-be purchaser aware of, much less put off acquiring. Highly recommended.

I bought this keyboard after reading an article which stated that a USB keyboard could be plugged into one of the spare USB sockets on my Xbox 360 and be even better than the official Xbox keypad.
I'm pleased to say that it not only works with my Xbox 360 but also with my PS3. It's just "plug n play" so very fast and convenient.
In addition the official keypads for the Xbox 360 and PS3 are much more expensive so this is a really excellent solution.
The keyboard itself is quite OK for occasional use and represents great value for money.

Annoying if you use Esc button often
Problem I have with it is that location of sleep button - just next to *Esc* button. I keep pressing that by accident which is really annoying. Read more
