Is it easy to click or stiff? I have arthritis and after awhile if it is hard to click it causes pain.

I don't think it is particularly stiff. It is smaller than a regular mouse, so I expect it would depend on how you rest your hand on it and how much you use it.

This is a small mouse and I presume it should be harder to click with than with a full size mouse. If you have a problem with hands/fingers I think a bigger one should be more comfortable.

It was really hard for me to get it to click too. My husband had to push down on too. It may take two people. Once it is in it's great. Just be careful folding it, don't use your finger to push it. use a screwdriver or something. Other than that, it's great! Enjoy with your baby! :)

Dear Jc:Well you do turn the device and that is not hard, I had to watch that I didn't get my fingers near the blade. You really have to turn the veggies and hold onto the device..there is a top and it says that it helps push the veggies down, but I did not find that to be true...I use it without the top...I guess with the arthritis it would be easier to use than a knife..oh by the way check out utube videos of soft yoga exercises for your arthritis..i found it very helpful to keep my joints from freezing up. good luck...

I think it would be difficult for someone with arthritis even if she isn't holding a baby. It requires the use of two fingers at one time not to mention dexterity. I don't find it difficult for me, but I also don't have arthritis. I hope that helps.

You need to be able to slide a button with your thumb (away from you), while simultaneously lifting up the entire gate to open. It's a bit tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's not terrible. I haven't encountered anyone with arthritis using it in my home, but my in-laws have a hard time figuring it out, so they just hop over it - but I think it's more of a patience thing!

I found it to be a bit stiff, Take your thumb and rest it on the top of the most up right punch with your hand around the neck, push forward with your thumb till it moves and keep going till it clicks. FYI push firmly.

It has very clicky feelings. But that does not bother me. It is very low level and feel kind of steps.You can set the number of lines scrolled by each step. However consider buying insurance if you buy thismouse. Simple web search will show you (including me) that mouse fails after 8/9 months. Specially the left/right buttons.Logitech customer service never responds to anything.

Yes, the wheel clicks softly during scrolling. Most mice I have used have a harder click than this.

Well, I'd say that the click is pretty normal. You may hear it (and I think this is rather positive than negative, since it is a confirmation that everything is ok), but it a discrete sound and doesn't bother at all. To be honest, the user, an aged lady, is very happy with the cane and she feels sure to walk with it.

I have this problem too. Had to throw mine away. Loved it otherwise especially because I have arthritis.

The middle click is solid. It's wont accidentally click while scrolling. It's not stiff either. It's feels really good. I should tell you though that if you are using Ubuntu you will need to remap the buttons i.e. sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf as the Windows button mapping won't work out of the box for Linux.

It's pretty noisy and there is an electronic "Key Click" option. If you can live with it with that option off, the experience is WELL worth it. It's also worth noting that I am very heavy handed.

Yes the button must be held down. I too have arthritis, esp. in my thumbs but I could do it without a problem. I dont think I could blend for a long period of time, however, without fatigue.

Yes, depending on the severity of your arthritis, it could possibly be difficult. You must apply a bit of pressure and maintain a continuous turn. I wish they would invent a motorized version:)

I am 86 and use both the touch screen and a mouse. Because of arthritis in my hands, I use a Logitech Marble mouse that does not have be moved around. The marble ball moves the cursor and the clickers are not as sensitive to touch. With a regular mouse, it is almost impossible for me to double click successfully.

Games felt weird at first while I was getting used to the switch from traditional keyboards to ergonomic. It just takes about a week to get used to, but I like it more than a traditional keyboard now. Much less hand cramping/shaking out with this style, especially if you're on the computer a lot (for any reason).

I got this because I hurt my elbow. It is really great. I did not have any issues with the mouse. I must say it takes about 2 weeks to get used to it, however, after that it is great. One item to note is that the CTRL/ALT keys are not well positioned so if you use them a lot you will want to set up quick keys. Hope this helps.
