How long can I expect it to last? (I have used 3 EZ-Eye keyboards. The 1at lasted a little over 1 month, the 2nd 6 months, the 3rd less than 3 hours

I am really surprised because I ordered this Keys U See keyboard on October 26, 2013, and it is still going strong. I use it a lot because I teach online, so it has stood the test of long hours of paper grading each week. :-)

We used two of those black on yellow keyboards neither of which lasted. We purchased an AZIO backlit plug in keyboard and love it. We've been using it for nine monthes with no problems.

I can't imagine why they do not last. The person I got it for has had this since I bought it Dec. 2012. It has worked well, food crumbs get dropped on it, cigarette ashes and cigarettes. Did you return the others? I sure would have.

I'm sorry you have had problems with your other keyboards. My first "Keys U See" lasted three years. I replaced it with a second one which is still going strong after two years. I don't use it every day, but when I take it to my adult education classes, sometimes three in a week, I am often typing for 1 1/2 hours straight. I recommend downloading frequently to avoid losing documents in case there is any problem. I'm glad I have this keyboard and recommend it to anyone. If you have any more questions, please let me know.

I have had this key board for going on a year and only enountered several problems. Occasionally the back space button sticks, and I have had problems loading the key board from a complete shut down. No disc was included.

When I was looking for a wireless keyboard I was looking at the battery, specifically a rechargable battery. I did not want to constantly by a new pair of batteries to keep it alive. The EZOWare has a rechargeable battery and it lasts for many hours before it dies! (so far 20+ hours, RECHARGEABLE!) The only thing I did have to get used to is the size of the keyboard and how close the keys are to each other, and it will take some time to get used to it. It's a great keyboard for the price and I would recommend it in a heartbeat.

It does work well with an external keyboard; however, I have had mine for approx two weeks and it will not charge to 100% I'm thinking....this one may be defective. O_0

Sure, if she can type. But I am going to add a caveat: I bought two in the last six months, one for my and one for my college-bound student. I'd read some of the comments about keyboards quitting (or just not working), and mine quit working after 4 or 5 months. I'm not happy. My son's is doing fine, though.

The battery life is pretty awful. Don't lose your keys. I did, and you have to send in a notarized form with 15 bucks to get new keys. The batteries on mine lasted less than 5 months. New, name brand batteries, and I opened it a grand total of about 5 times. I hadn't tried in about a month, and there was no juice left. I'll try a different name brand to see if it matters.

I have had my keyboard since the day it was released on amazon. So probably over a year and have yet to have any malfunctioning with it? Maybe shoot their customer service an email and see what they say.

I was wondering too. It says it will go 10 days on a charge but I would question that as well. I have a wireless Logitech mouse, which I love by the way, that says it's battery life is up to 18 months and I'm lucky to get a month out of it. From reading the reviews, when in battery mode , the keys do not stay illuminated and you have to press something to light them up again. I love the fact you can have a choice of wired or not. The battery can also be replaced if need be according to the rep. I have a Logitech keyboard as well that I have had since Windows 95 and it works as well today as it did then. I do have a cover on it so that may be a big part of that reason. I was wondering too. It says it will go 10 days on a charge but I would question that as well.

I may not have exactly the same keyboard, but the green light on mine lights up briefly when the on/off button is depressed. It only stays on for about three seconds.

It lasts forever, if that's what you are asking! Plus, mine came with an extra battery that I keep charged just in case. But I do extensive emailing on it and I can wrote two LOOONG emails before it even drops below 20%...like 6 hours of constant use at the very least. And I use a Swype keyboard which seems to use more power than the simple android keyboard.

I have had good experience with the keyboard lasting all day. I've used it in meetings that are daylong, and lasting into the evening, and haven't had any problem with it working the entire time.

The Key Pad only lights up after the first key is pushed. Otherwise, it would drain the battery way to fast. My original Key Pad's battery which is still in use has lasted over 4 years. The new Key Pad and battery is close to two years old now.

Hard to say. I use it to light my keyboard when I'm on my computer in the dark. It's lasted me for about 2 months now, but when I use it I usually only use it for up to an hour and I do use it quite often though.

I had no problem with the letters wearing out or fading? Had one for 5 years. This is a good key board & mouse combination in my opinion. This is the 3rd one I have bought.

My keyboard has been going strong for over a year, works just like new still and I love it. I use my keyboard every day for 8+ hrs, so it is not lack of use that is keeping it in good condition.

Btw....The EX110 is probably the best keyboard ever made.......I've gone through about 8 of them over the years.....that's not to say they wear out quickly, but that I use my keyboard a LOT........and I have 2 more in reserve.......I LOVE this keyboard.......z

If you use a good quality battery it could last you a few weeks if you use it a ton to a few months. It all depends how often you use it. I've had this set for 3 or so weeks now and have yet to change the battery and I use the keyboard and mouse on average 4-5 hours a day.

I've had no problems and am happy after two months with the keyboard. Sometimes I mix up the sequence of turning on the keyboard and pushing the little button, but it's always come on. Be sure that the keyboard is charged. I wrote the manufacturer for a copy of the User Guide. They emailed a jpg.
