Competent Performer
As a professional pc user, I type about 1 million characters per year. My old Logitech Comfort keyboard of 2004 was in need of a replacement after 13 years of continuous use.
Is Adesso made of the same quality materials?
This is hard to say. Time will tell.
So far, the experiences with this keyboard have been good.
I chose for the Adesso since it fairly closely matches the old Logitech Comfort keyboard with a few minor changes in the key configuration, which is an important asset to me.
Plus+++++:
Keys with positive action.
Easy setup
Trouble free wireless connection
On/Off switch
Connect switch
USB dongle
Minus--:
Unlike the Logitech Comfort keyboard it replaces, this does not have the adjustable height supports front nor back. To me, this is an important issue that I discovered only after the purchase.
The characters and symbols on the keys are oversize. This may be good for a person with diminished vision but they are a bit too big for my liking.
Battery size is only 2 x AAA.
The retiring Logitech came with 2 x AA, but did not boast an on/off switch as Adesso (may help to save battery lifespan).
Unlike the Logitech Comfort keyboard palm rest, the Adesso palm rest cannot be detached.
Conclusion:
I fixed the issue of the missing supports front and back, much to my satisfaction, by sticking 3 rubber pieces cut from an old eraser to the bottom of the keyboard. This raises the front by about 1/2 inch and increases the comfort when typing.
Typically, the Adesso keyboard works great as advertized.
On the whole, I think it is good value for the money.
Durability is to be determined over time.
