Logitech MK270 Wireless Keyboard And Mouse Combo For Windows, 2.4 GHz Wireless, Compact Mouse, 8 Multimedia And Shortcut Keys, For PC, Laptop - Black

I had this same Logitech keyboard/mouse before and considering I work 50+ hrs a week on them they lasted a very long time, around 3 years!! Getting this new set I remember what I loved about them. The keyboard has a satisfying feel and sound to it which did wear down over the years. The mouse fits my small hand perfectly and responds really well. I love that they came with batteries so I only had to pull the tabs, plug in the USB, and away we go! I only got them today so hoping my mind doesnt change but so far YAY!!

While the keyboard works flawlessly, is relatively silent, with comfortable keys, there are two things to be aware of. The first is that to make the keyboard light, it lost structural integrity. Meaning if you set something on it, or drop it onto something hard, you have a chance of cracking the plastic, in half even. This is proven if you hold it by one corner, you can bounce the keyboard, getting flex along it's length. The second issue I have is also related to durability, since I type a fair amount, but nothing like someone who works a full day at the computer. I have already put a polish on the space bar, along with how I am already rubbing smooth spots in other keys, I worry about how long the keyboard will survive, before keys break. The backspace, all the home row keys, along with most of the other letters all have also begun to lose the textured surface. My question would be why is the plastic so soft that it can be rubbed smooth in less than a month of use? I have been the owner of multiple prior keyboards from Logitech, with it taking over a year to show this level of wear on the keys on all prior keyboards This, to me, shows a serious decline in build quality, or quality control. But it is up to buyers to make their own decision, since the keys still function with no issues.

Got a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse for my home office, and so far, it's been solid. The keyboard feels nice to type on, and the mouse is responsive without any lag. Setup was simple—just plug and play. Battery life seems good, and the wireless connection is reliable. Nothing too fancy, but it does the job well. If you need a decent, no-hassle setup for work, this is a good option.

I have two of these, and they work great. The one downside, is that both of them seem to be having connection issues when I have them directly plugged into my pc, but they work great when I have them plugged into my usb adapter. I suggest getting something with a stronger connection if you play stressful games.These are a nice quality, and last a long time. It's great for light use, and is pretty dependable when you have an open connection. Also remember, devices like this can interfere with eachother, so try to keep other wireless devices away while in use.

Solid keyboard. Connection was as easy as plugging in the USB connector and turning on the keyboard. Full size keys with great feedback and spring. I had the previous model and this is even better quality. This is my daily use keyboard so it gets a lot of use. Works fantastic, love the volume buttons to quickly mute when in meetings. Great keyboard!

As a professional typist with decades of 12-14 hour days of doing nothing but just typing, I am very picky about keyboards. Keyboards that meet my standards are getting fewer and far between. Within a strict budget - this Logitech Wireless Keyboard more than meet my exceedingly stingent demands and I am currently a happy-typer.My SAITEK PK02U ECLIPSE II KEYBOARD finally gave out by way of a repeatedly sticking spacebar, which I tried to repair many times, but finally to no avail. After four years of faithful service, I finally had to put that wondeful keyboard to rest. Now a retiree with a tighter budget I had to seek something more in line with my pocketbook. The one new crteria was that my next purchase be a wireless keyboard. I spent days and days reading keyboard reviews and finally decided, with reservation, to order this Logitech Wireless Keyboard. My experience with Logitech consisted of trying a few of their wireless mourses. I would always go back to my Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 - Botanic Pink of which I have two that I use daily and which I find the best mouse on the market. However, the description and reviews of the Logitech K270 seemed the most positive of all the keyboards and at $28.75 it was in my price range. I would have preferred to purchase it locally because I have a history of having to return keyboards because of being unhappy with the touch, sticking keys right out of the box, horrible configurations and key spacing, etc. However, no local business carries this keyboard in stock.I set aside an entire evening to set up my new keyboard, again based on previous history, and also because it was wireless, a new type of keyboard for me. I had a lot of extra time left for other endeavors that evening. Simply put; I opened the box, removed the keyboard and receiver from box, inserted the receiver in my computer tower, pulled out the paper tab from the battery door on the bottom of the keyboard, flipped out the feet on the bottom of the keyboard, turned the keyboard on, and started to type. I was amazed and pleased but I thought it was too early to review the product, I wanted to give it awhile to check out the actual fact of typing with this lightweight, well designed keyboard.The next morning I started with the new keyboard and wanted to test the touch and design of the keys placement on the board. Within 15 minutes I had forgotten that I was supposed to be trying out a keyboard; it simply became my keyboard. Now 24 days later I finally remembered I had never reviewed the product. That is because in that 24 days I have never actually given much thought at all to the fact that I am typing on a NEW keyboard. This was pretty much my first seamless keyboard replacement.I am of course aware that I don't have to keep adjusting the wire from the keyboard to the computer, that I don't have to adjust the sliding drawer where my keyboard rests because the wire is caught on something, that the wire isn't tangled in my feet because it is drooping to the floor, that the wire isn't keeping me from opening the sliding drawer far enough, and all those problems I have endured for years because I thought a wireless keyboard might not be responsive to my need for speed. In that regard, I have yet to notice anything, other than the lack of the physical wire, that tells me I am typing on a wireless keyboard.The touch of this keyboard just seems normal to me and hasn't caught my attention at all. This keyboard is designated as being Long-Range Wireless. My keyboard and computer tower are very close in proximity, so that was a feature I didn't need. However, I have tested this out and I can type on this keyboard down the hall from my office and into the dining room (next room over from office) and the response is fine. The second room over stretches the keyboards wireless limits and it starts to drop letters. I did not measure the distance. All in all this did not present a problem for me though. I never notice slowless or dropped letters or non-responsiveness where it matters, at my desk or in the next room either.The little feet on the bottom prop the keyboard at just the correct angle for me. I used to have to keep an additonal prop aid under my Saitek keyboard to get the cant just right. There is no wrist rest on this Logitech where there was on my Saitek. It took approximately 15 minutes for me not to miss it.My sliding drawer or keyboard tray is formica and like every keyboard I have had, the keyboard is a bit inclined to slide, but I long ago affixed rubbery-like shelf line Duck Brand 1100731 Non-Adhesive Select Easy Shelf Liner, Jumbo Roll, 12-Inch Wide x 20-Feet Long, Taupe with double-sided scotch tape to the surface of my keyboard slider. I placed new liner in honor of my new keyboard and voila, no slipping and sliding.The placement of the keys on this Logitech K270 keyboard are the nearest to the original placement of most of the keyboards I read reviews for. As a longtime typist the changing of major key placement and altering of the spacing between groups of keys always appears counter-productive to me. I don't understand the trend toward re-inventing the keyboard by every major keyboard manufacturer, but it continues to occur with even more frequency as the years roll by. This keyboard presented no problems for me whatsoever in that aspect. It sports a standard, full-size layout which I appreciate. I do however like the addition above the the F function keys, of several small short cut keys. I particularly enjoy the keys that takes me to my home page and to my e-mail (both with no set up required by me at all). There are also keys to increase, decrease, and mute the volume of videos, music, etc which I find helpful. There is also a key that brings up a calculator to the screen.I haven't had the keyboard long enough to encounter the need to replace the two AAA batteries required. The length of the battery power is estimated at 24 months or 2 million keystrokes per year. Now that I don't type all day everyday it might take me awhile to get to 2 million keystrokes in a year.There is an off/on switch on the keyboard to preserve battery power; however, I never turn mine off, nor do I turn off my wireless mouses. Just not a habit I ever developed. I would rather just change the batteries. I also have not utilized the feature available to allow just the one receiver for the keyboard and other compatible items such as your logitech mouse, but I have no reason to doubt that it wouldn't work perfectly as advertised.All in all this was easiest to set up computer keyboard I have encountered in years. The keyboard itself has everything required to make someone used to typing on a standard keyboard completely satisfied with the purchase. I recommend it highly.

This is not sold as a unit. I’ve receive two this week and the mouse is missing from them both! So I am returning both of them and going with a local vendor so that I will know I’m receiving the keyboard AND the mouse. I’ll look for the same product in-store because the keyboard was really nice and had a nice feel. But if I can’t find it locally, oh well.******Update later the same night***** I dropped off the two items at the local UPS and drove about 10 miles to get the last one in stock at a local Best Buy. I had the salesman open the box first thing, and BAM!! The mouse is the first thing that popped ou! Got it home, connected it, and it worked BEAUTIFULLY! So I’m changing my rating from one star to five stars.
