«Really good quality for your money...»
I guess anybody who ever had to use a laptop keyboard for an extended period knows how much it hurts the fingers, hands and wrists. I am a translator who uses a keyboard at least 8 hours a day with little rest and this wireless set makes my work much easier and comfortable.
I agree with almost everything told in the previous positive reviews: Both the keyboard and the mouse are very comfortable and well-designed, their sizes would not bother anybody with ordinary hand proportions, actually, my hands are quite small for a male adult and even I have no problems in using them. If you take the keyboard out of its box in a well-lit place, you might think that it is dirty because the keys are have a transparent cover, but in time you get used to it. In fact, I think this makes the keyboard look really professional.
In one of the earlier reviews someone mentioned that the mouse gets heavy when the batteries are placed in their sockets but I don't agree with this. When I compared the mouse with its peers with similar properties, I felt it to be much lighter.
It has been almost a month since I bought this set and they gave me no problems at all, and the batteries are still in their highest level. If you want that extra-long life from your batteries, you can take them out when you won't use your computer for a long time; taking the batteries out of the keyboard is really easy but I can't say this is the case for the mouse. It's not much of a hassle, though.
This wireless set saved me from paying for professional medical care because I had been suffering from intense pain in all of my finger joints and wrists when I bought it. Now, spending hours translating is not a matter of pain but pleasure and satisfaction from work because once I got used to this split keyboard, my typing actually gained speed.
All in all, I would strongly recommend this keyboard and mouse to anybody who is looking for a wireless set with a good price/quality ratio. Unlike their Windows OS, Microsoft knows what they are doing when it comes to keyboards and mice.

«Wireless Mouse and Keyboard»
This looks great, and mouse is awesome, but so far, I have been unable to get the keyboard to snyc with the receiver, so I can't use it. I'll keep trying, and if I don't have any luck, I will call Microsoft Support for some help. Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

«Easy to Install and Use»
I had no problems installing it and it started working immediately. I wish the wrist guard was padded like the comfort keyboard they have, but it works just fine.
