I do a lot of typing for my job (that is my job) is this keyboard comfortable to type on?

I type for hours on end. I enjoy typing on this keyboard. It's wonderful. And the funny thing is, I just got it from my local Big Lots store. What a precious find!! Actually, I'm amazed at how quickly I was able to adjust to its curved design and my typing on this keyboard has proven to be far better than on traditional keyboards. I am quite impressed for only having it for 1/2 day. I am really enjoying this keyboard. I wanted for the longest time to test it out, never suspecting I'd find it at a local discount store. Go figure. What a wonderful way to start the new year!!

The Sculpt keyboard and its better sibling, the Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000 are very comfortable to type on. The comfort curve minimizes the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome. I can type 120+ wpm on this keyboard. Get the Keyboard 5000 while it is still available. It is superior to the Sculpt since you don't have to press the FN key on the 5000 to get the function key.

It's definitely more comfortable to type on than the more compact options like the Apple, AmazonBasics, or Microsoft Wedge Keyboard. But, perhaps not as comfortable as a full desktop ergonomic keyboard.

It is very comfortable to type on. However, the hardwired function keys limit its use and make it inconvenient. Unfortunately, Microsoft discontinued the Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000, which I considered the best ever. I recommend first getting the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard for Business (5KV-00001). This is very comfortable but is build for desk use since it is heavy.

I really like this keyboard. I would say if you have large hands (as I do) it wouldn't be the best.

I really like it. I use it on both a dell Venue 8 tablet and a laptop when it is in a docking station. I thought that since it really flat I would have issues with it. But since it is flat and there is not any type of raise or incline to it. I do not have any tiredness or aches in my wrists from normal keyboards. The only thing that I have had to get used to is that it does not have a numeric pad.

If you do a lot of typing, this might not be the best keyboard. I do a lot of typing, but it is intermittent. I just don't sit there and type for hours at a time. If you like this style, Sculpt does have a slightly bigger model with a few extra accessory keys that might provide more conveyance as well as comfort.

Yes! It's a difficult keyboard. I feel like I have to really bang away at times!

It's really more like a laptop keyboard, structure-wise. However, that does not necessarily preclude it from having full-sized keys. I'd say that it's about as comfortable as typing on a laptop.

Yes it is, its a pretty good key board keys are a little stiff for my liking but good for a cheaper back lit key board. Also I spilled a drink on it and it still works once it dried out so its pretty tough to.

I have to agree with previous post. I spend 8 + hours per weekday typing for work (straight typing) and it has just enough "resistance" so you know you're pressing, but not so hard your fingers get tired - :)

The keyboard is sturdy enough to work on your lap but depending on the angle that you place it, you may find it difficult to use. Also, it was designed to sit on a surface to give the best ergonomic position for your hands so you might want to consider that as well.

Yeah it's not the snuggiest I've ever seen. It's more comfortable on the keys in the upper part of the keyboard. The small keys, the arrow keys are not snug at all

No it is terriblt. The placement if the keys are off to the left and is really awkward to type. I regret not returning it soon enough.

Yes it is. It's a little loud when typing... but I sure LOVE this keyboard. I hope that helps.

No, the keyboard is very quite, which is why I love it. I use it in my bedroom while my husband is sleeping.

The space bars and all the keys are extremely smooth and easy to press. I'm a writer/editor/grad student so I type hours a day and I also have arthritis in my hands and wrists. This keyboard has been a big help overall. I had a keyboard with a sticky space bar so I know what you mean but you won't have a problem with this one.

I have no problem sliding the keyboard. All actions work well.! The case fits well, is rubberized, which is good for me,besides being comfortable.

If you feel comfortable workign with Delicate parts and removing the keyboard it is not too bad. There is a great U Tube video that walks you through it. If you are not handy is Not Easy

I have the same preference for keyboards. This one, which I've been using for many months is definitely heavy. The key feel is somewhere between the soft feel of most modern keyboards and the older ones I really liked. I find it acceptable if not ideal, but I'm not a touch typist. The key travel is about 1/8 inch. Hope this helps.

I would say around average. It isn't quiet but I have heard worse. If you are doing a lot of chatting, and quiet is your main selling point. I would probably look for another. Still like the keyboard, but I don't have many worries on how noisy it is.

Hi Brenda I use this keyboard at work. I tend to type with strong touch, so it's loud but I don't quite concern about it.(I can't type quiet that's more of my problem than keyboard )I think it not so loud if you type as most average users.Nick

The keys are hard and I must say I love it. I hate pecking around with the screen keyboard so this is perfect for faster typing.
