Incase Ergonomic Keyboard – Designed by Microsoft – Refined Ergonomic Design, Built-in Shortcuts Keys, Layered Palm Rest for Elevated Wrist Support, Integrated Number Pad – Black

This keyboard is a Chinese rip-off of an older Microsoft keyboard. WONDERFUL! It's solid, all the keys are where my muscle memory says they should be, and there's a "natural" feel to them that I loved and despaired of ever finding again. I've spent a lot of money trying several other brands. It's not wireless, but that's a blessing -- the MS sculpted wireless keyboard died on my TEN times and they stopped making it, which is why the few remaining ones in the marketplace cost nearly $400 (but will surely die, like mine all did.) Microsoft stopped making this model years ago, which is why I'm glad someone in China has revived it.

The keyboard looks and feels like the Microsoft version; however, it is a problem that even though it's the new replacement version for MS, it is not recognized by the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center.

I am so thankful I found this keyboard on Amazon. I recently spilled water on my old Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard 4000. I thought my life was over. I was a transcriptionist for years, and that keyboard saved my shoulders, wrists, etc. from pain. Imagine my horror to discover it was now over $400.00 and only a couple left. Since I'm now retired, that is way too much for a keyboard. I started searching for a replacement and saw how many people were recommending this keyboard - and best of all, it was under $100.00. I love it. I've had no problem getting used to it. There are some differences, but they're easy to adapt to. Although several people have complained about not being able to raise the back of it (as you could on the 4000), I've found that I don't really notice it that much. I worked on ergonomic keyboards from 2005 through 2019 as a transcriptionist; if I can adjust quickly, anyone can (I'm so set in my ways I still miss my IBM Selectric 3 from the 1980s). I also like the sleek look of this keyboard.

Finally found a wired keyboard to use. Keys are quiet and feel great and is very reminiscent to my old MS keyboard.

this was more expensive and higher rated yet i found one that is much quieter not as chunky and half the price. get the kensington pro fit ergo

Purchased this as a replacement for the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 v1.0. This keyboard feels even more comfortable than the older Microsoft models. Everything feels softer and the buttons push seamlessly. I tested a new version of the Microsoft Keyboard vs. The Incase Keyboard and verified the difference. It is an upgrade.The only negative feature is the lack of stands. I purchased some 2pcs Keyboard Stands with 3M tape and that perfected this keyboard!Highly recommend with or without the stands. Glad to see there is a replacement for these keyboards.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:My previous keyboard was a Microsoft Natural 4000 which lacked the quality I'd grown to expect from older models. The lettering on the keys wore off over time. This keyboard isn't set up the same way as Microsoft versions, but it feels the same to use and I'm hopeful that it'll be as long-lasting. (I'm typing this using a MS Natural Pro from the days when computers were beige and It's in just as good operating order as the day I bought it. No signs of the key markings wearing off.)

If you are looking for a direct replacement for the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard (LNX-00001), this is it. The keyboard seems to be 100% identical in form and function (they keys might be a tad bit quieter, but that could also be because it is new). I've been using the LNX-00001 since it came out and just love how it has made my carpal tunnel issues a thing of the past, so was sad when it just up and died. I found replacements of the same exact one in the $200-$300 range and then stumbled on this one by Incase which looked the same, but was a fraction of the price. I tried it, and it is now serving as a direct replacement with the same look/feel and comfort as the original.
