Reliable plug-and-play operation with wired USB connection Three-button mouse with middle button scroll wheel Compatibility: Windows XP and above, Mac OS (USB-C to USB-A connector needed for newer Mac products)

Review: Great Keyboard for the Price. Not Customizable. - Comes in perfect condition in solid packaging. It works perfectly with my computer with no connection issues and the buttons respond super fast. The sound is like any other mechanical keyboard noise and it doesn't bother me personally. Despite it's plain looks, it easily fits into the aesthetics of your workspace and it's comfortable to use. I've been using it for years. Do note though that this is not customizable. It does not have the right switches that hold the keycaps for customization. Regardless, this has been an excellent keyboard. Make sure to keep it clean though. My first one eventually had response issues after years of use that I had to get a new one. And the second one still lasts perfectly years later. Hard to go wrong with this.
Review: Received as mentioned - Nicee tactile feel of keys... suitable for typing long hours... prompt delivery... delivered in good condition...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Keyboard for the Price. Not Customizable.
*by A***N on 26 August 2025*

Comes in perfect condition in solid packaging. It works perfectly with my computer with no connection issues and the buttons respond super fast.

Nicee tactile feel of keys... suitable for typing long hours... prompt delivery... delivered in good condition...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It seemed like a good keyboard for the money* Mouse is great.
*by D***L on 29 December 2015*

Can not beat this keyboard and mouse combo deal for the price! -- Keyboard: Key action is medium weighted, with the standard membrane feel. The spacebar on mine rattles just a little bit, but it does work perfectly. No missed keystrokes! ***** EDIT ***** It *(seemed like)* a good keyboard for the money. It was a good keyboard for about 2 days*. The (A) key suddenly stopped working, or worked sporadically. I have ordered a key puller so I can service my Matias Quiet Key Pro; the switches gummed due to humidity. Back into service it went last night due to the early failure of the Kensington. By the way, No Liquids were Spilled at all. No abuse, nothing to cause the failure. -- Mouse: It is a 3 button mouse that fits my hand nicely. I am 6' 1", and it seems some mice have shrank, while others are a big. Finding a mouse that is what I used to call normal sized seems a lot harder that it used to be. This mouse Just-Works! No excuses, no drama, this mouse does what a mouse is supposed to. I actually bought this keyboard and mouse combo because, for the price, I was getting the keyboard (which I knew nothing about) almost for free. I would say I now have a spare mouse, but my 10 y.o. daughter claimed it! Oh well, I will put her old Dell mouse away as a backup. ** Addendum ** The mouse is still working perfectly.
