[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do like it quite a bit! The only reason I put it at 4 stars (I probably want to give it 4.5!) is because I miss my number pad and do wish it had one on there. I keep reaching over but then realize it't not there.
Excellent Keyboard, Number Pad, and Vertical Mouse

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this keyboard for the last week and I do like the keyboard. I have used other ergonomic wave-style keyboards in the past, so adapting to the angles didn't take me very long. I really like soft-yet-positive feel of the keys. The angle of the keyboard and the way the heel of my hand rests on the cork portion is indeed very comfortable. I bought the matching external Number Pad and vertical mouse as well.
I wish they had Bluetooth compatibility instead of WiFi-only. I find that the WiFi seems to be susceptible to other 2.4GHz interference, so periodically everything stops and becomes intermittent I have all three devices consolidated onto the same USB pairing receiver unit using the Lenovo Go application which was easy to do..
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The keyboard is great, it has everything I was looking for. The only criticism I have so far is that the palm rest is quite slippery compared to other ergo keyboards, which can make it challenging to maintain your preferred typing position. It may get less slippery with time, but for now it's a small annoyance.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall it is an excellent keyboard. Using it is a joy and it is relaxing.
PROs: The ergonomic aspect of it allows for a natural positioning of hands with little to no strain on the wrists. The keys travel is laptop like with a good tactile response (not surprising coming from the best laptop keyboard manufacturers). No problems with registering a key press. Wireless connector is small and Lenovo's software allows for easy configuration to add compatible devices. There is a dedicated space in the battery compartment for storage which is handy for travel.
CONs The keys on each side are in straight lines which helps the transition from a regular keyboard but takes a little bit of the ergomic aspect of it. In the end it is a matter of preference. It is a keyboard that takes a lot of space being almost as big as a Logitech Ergo K860 which is a full size keyboard. Not necessarily a Con but comparing with other brands it can only service one receiver and has no bluetooth. In other words you can only use it with 1 computer at a time.
Reliability and battery claims are TBD.
Since I have acquired the keyboard to use with one computer and for its ergonomic properties, the PROs weighted more and since it checked my requirements I gave it 5 stars
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Curvature of the keyboard is nice and with the cork wrist bar, you don't get the "sweaty" feeling that sometime you get with other padded or flat wrist bars. Keys are smooth and the right sensitivity when typing. The only thing I wished were included is the numeric keypad - that has to be purchased separately.
