Defaults to function buttons instead of F keys
This is an extremely comfortable and slim keyboard and mouse set I bought for my office (six sets) because we can't have nice things and keep losing the wireless dongles for wireless sets *not to mention the interference*The only gripe I have is that the function keys default to function actions like volume controls instead of the F keys, which for a technical office we rely on. Thankfully there is a function lock you can toggle.

Decent Keyboard/Mouse set, but some notes about the keyboard
Pros: Keyboard has little space around keys for dirt to accumulate, key clicks are strong, mouse is good quality, eco-friendly packagingCons: Keyboard layout is not standard, Function keys/Secondary functions are inverted, No Scroll Lock lightUpon recieving the package, I was pleased to see that the keyboard and mouse were shipped in simple cardboard boxes. There was bubble wrap pouches, but none of the excessive plastic.The keyboard and mouse are of good construction and the company ships a removable protective film that can be placed over the keyboard to keep out dust and debris.The wires that connect the devices to the computer are thin and pliable so they don't require much effort to straighten out or manipulate to get them to out of the way.The mouse is very slim in comparison to other Jelly Comb (aka JC) mice I have purchased, so for people with hands of my size, it is very low profile. Not unusable, but a lot slimmer than I would prefer.The scroll wheel is very well built with a nice silver accent on each side. Detents are good and the ridges on the wheel give a good tactile feel. The extra button is for changing mouse sensitivity.The keyboard is slim and lies very flat on the table. There is no palm rest, so I utilized a gel rest to prevent any carpal tunnel issues. There are no risers under the keyboard, so you cannot change the angle, but in general the angle seems decent.Typing on the keyboard produces good quality clicks and response is very good. I enjoy typing on the keyboard, although I prefer mechanical keys. I recommend this keyboard because of the key response.There are some things I do NOT like about the keyboard. JC decided to make the keyboard more compact vs. regular size keyboards, despite the fact that I bought the standard size keyboard. Because of this, they removed a lot of the space between the keys in the top row. There is no space between the Esc and F1 key, or between the F4 and F5 keys.There is a dedicated Fn key to the right of the left Ctrl key which is necessary because the standard setup is that the Fn keys and their Secondary function are inverted. F5 also is Play/Pause. The problem is that when I go to press F5 (refresh), the key starts/stops playing audio or video I might have running. The Esc key acts as a Fn Lock, but there is no indicator light for this. Once you press the Fn + Esc combination the Fn keys revert to their standard setup, but this is a bit annoying. I expect that if there is a reboot, you have to remember to press the Fn + Esc combination again to revert to the standard setup.The PrtScn button is not grouped with the Scroll Lock and Pause|Break buttons.JC has added a Clear button to the right of Pause|Break which is puzzling. The number pad on the right works fine, but they added an additional Backspace button breaking up the + button so it is not the standard size. Some people who use the number pad might find this annoying if they mistype while working.Finally, the three lights in the top right corner are Num, Caps and Power. There is no Scroll indicator light. I will agree that most people probably do not use the Scroll lock button, but there are two problems in my opinion. First, I have diagnosed issues that people have by noting that they accidentaly pressed the Scroll lock button as indicated by the light. No light, means it would be harder for me to diagnose issues related to it. Second, I have no need for a power indicator light on the keyboard. I don't have the ability to turn the computer on/off from the keyboard (by pushing one button), so I fail to comprehend the need for such a light.Overall, the kit is good, but note the issues as I described, and decide for yourself before buying.

Great keyboard coming from someone used to a laptop style keyboard
Love the low profile yet snappiness the keys have to them when you press in. I'm very used to thinkpad keyboards but have switched over to a desktop setup recently. I wanted something pretty similar to my laptop keys and was contemplating getting the thinkpad trackpoint keyboard II for my desktop but decided to give this a try instead. This keyboard feels quite nice and snappy similarly to my thinkpad so I am very happy with it because I hate mushy keys. The keys, especially the space bar, isn't wobbly or loud which is something I find common with a lot of budget keyboards. To compare, I have the essential lenovo keyboard because I wanted something as similar to thinkpad keys as I could find, and that one sucks so bad compared to this one. That keyboard is heavy and built well, but the keys are so wobbly feeling when pressed in. I also have the amazon basics keyboard and that one feels a bit more mushy and has a higher profile than this one. I love the silicone cover that came with this. At first I thought I wouldn't use it but it's great. It keeps your keyboard clean and has a grip to it so your fingers don't slide around when typing. I actually think it helps me type faster and not make as many errors.This keyboard defaults to the shortcut keys, but all you have to do is hold fn and esc to switch it to function keys and it will stay like that.

comfortable and quiet while looking good, too
Talk about a super-sleek wired keyboard and mouse! I’d never heard of Jelly Comb before now and if people are doing their research before buying, more and more people will hear of them in the future.I’ve used Microsoft keyboards explicitly and thought I’d see if this was any better. It wasn’t a gamble at all to find out first had it is quality with good construction. .I plan to use this keyboard in conjunction with my 2-in-1 laptop and have for video editing. It came with an interesting thin rubber cover -I assume to keep the keys clean and free from debris. I don’t feel it necessary so I am using without. The keys on their own are plenty comfortable. Sensitivity is great with quick reaction time and no missed keystrokes. The mouse is super smooth, looks sleek, and simple to use. Best of all it is whisper quiet when clicking.I’m going to make this combo (mouse & keyboard) my travel kit because it is so quiet and won’t disrupt anyone at the coffee shop while I can quickly get through my work.

Good backup keyboard and mouse
I bought this for using on Raspberry Pis and as a temporary keyboard and mouse for when I'm troubleshooting other folks computers. For these applications it works fine. The key touch is actually quite nice but the mouse is a bit small for my hands but it works fine.The only big negative for the keyboard is - why do the F keys require using the Fn key? I keep running across keyboards that do this and cannot figure out why it's done. This "feature" pevents me from using this setup on a daily basis as I use the F keys a lot and the quirky functions never.

Absolutely worth it
Pros- Keyboard comes with a nice silicone cover- The mouse and keyboard both have a nice weight to them and they don't feel cheap.- Clicking on the mouse is very quiet.- Keyboard keys are very light and don't require you to press any harder than you would on a laptop.Cons:- Weird little delete key under the "+" key in the number pad area.

Excellent Quality, both Mouse and Keyboard
The keyboard takes a bit of getting used to, as the keys are slightly closer together than a standard keyboard, but not bad at all. It's a quality-built keyboard. Key presses are really nice.I found the mouse to be a little on the thin size, and ot quite high enough for comfort, at least for me. When using the wheel, I very often inadvertently touch the right click. It's very sensitive - perhaps more than it should be. But overall, for the price, you'll be getting a really nice mouse and keyboard.

Pretty Good Basic Keyboard
I bought this keyboard after much research. Basically, I just wanted a simple, wired keyboard, where the key layout matches that of my laptop and the action is nice and fast. I'm happy with the chicklet-style keys, which are nice and comfortable against my fingers and I like the thin profile. Happy to not have to deal with recharging or replacing batteries, obviously - doesn't make sense when it just sits at my desk in front of my monitor always. It's nice to have a basic number pad too. I did think the keyboard was a bit too expensive. As for the mouse it came with, I don't think I'll be using it. It's so thin and I imagine it would be just too awkward too hold.

Like a Laptop Keyboard
I wanted a keyboard for work that had a laptop-like feel instead of the clunky and deep keyboard that was available to me. This one was affordable and works well. It comes with a small rubber cover to protect from spills, which also has a nice added effect of making typing even quieter. The mouse is also fine - though I will stick with wireless. I am very happy with this purchase.

Exactly what i needed
Very sleek & clean design, includes a nice non slip silicon cover sheet to put over the keyboard to protect it from dust, grime, etc. I love the feel of the keyboard especially with the silicon cover.Mouse is exceptional quality, everything is just as expected!
