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

Does the job.
Very happy with this keyboard. Synced right up with my PC as soon as I inserted the dongle and installed the driver. Keys are easy to see, have a nice positive feel and are not too noisy. No lag time when typing. The included mouse was a little too small for my hand so I went with something else, but it was still a good deal just for the KB.

Mouse is to small for an adult hand
The keyboard was fast and easy to install, and I purchased it because it looks nice and the size is perfect for my setup. I also appreciate the inclusion of an on/off button directly on the keyboard, which is a convenient feature. All the functions work great, and overall, I’m satisfied with the keyboard.However, I am very unsatisfied with the size of the mouse. It’s much too small for an adult hand, and the silent touch feature (where I can’t hear any clicking) isn’t for me. It feels like I’m not clicking on anything at all on my screen. While the silent touch may be ideal for those who prefer a quieter experience, it just doesn’t suit my preferences. I believe the mouse would be perfect for a child’s hand, but it doesn’t feel comfortable or responsive for an adult.

What’s NOT to LOVE about this 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 K270 keyboard is a great value. The keys are excellent for typing, with a satisfying mechanical feel, the special keys for system volume are particularly useful (for me anyway). Battery life is an unknown since I have only had the keyboard for a couple of weeks at this point, so we’ll see, but other reviews seem to indicate that it will not be a substantial issue, and Logitech is a well known and respected brand.The one thing that may be an issue is that until my system loads my OS, the keyboard is not operational, a small issue when recovering from a crash or power outage. That may well be because I am running an older PC with Win7 Ultimate 64bit for the OS, so newer boxes and newer OS types may not have the same issue. But bottom line – you can’t go wrong with this one.

Me gusto mucho y tengo mucha suerte con los productos Logitech!
