Review: If you like the old keyboards and the feel of a quality type bed, this is for you. - I was looking for a keyboard with the same depth of keystroke and similar sound to keyboards when quality and hand position were strived for. This keyboard is it. The tiered layers of the upper numeric roaws and the curvature of the keypad are slight but noticeable to the typist. With the keyboard inclined, it drives the user to correct posture. I have not tried the 'water proofness' of it, but one would never know it was a waterproof keyboard.
Review: Nice fit for smaller hands - Purchased for my wife who had been using one of my older, clunky gaming keyboards (it's pretty, but way big) and she wanted one that was washable so here we are. She loves the fit and feel of it, I think the material is a tad thin, but I prefer heavier keyboards anyway. We'll have to see as far as durability goes. All in all, recommended.
