MCSaite Left-Handed Keyboard, Wired Ultra-Thin Keyboard USB Port with 2 Hubs Portable Scissors Foot Structure Fit with Professional or Industrial Use for Computer Laptop Mac Notebook

I was looking for a keyboard which would allow my right hand to remain on the mouse while using the numeric keyboard with my left. This seemed one of the few available options, but overall I have been pretty satisfied. Also, I personally did not want the HOME/END and ARROW keys on the left, but rather wanted them to maintain their traditional location and arrangement on the right side. I ONLY wanted the numeric key area on the left.The description offered on the sellers page exactly matched the item. A couple of unexpected by nice features:- the graphics on each key are a little larger than average, which is a big assist to visibility- the box included a nice USB to MicroUSB cable with a woven exteriorThe key click sound of this item is very pleasant. It doesn’t have a louder plastic sounding click like many others, but rather a soft but definitive sound. The travel distance and thickness of the keys are pretty comfortable as well.The keyboard has a slight angular aspect, although is isn’t enough to make typing ideal for my hands, so I elected to order a small keyboard incline, which has complemented the device well. Also, I added an inexpensive neoprene wrist rest to round out the typing experience, and together it’s fairly productive.I’m finding it takes a while to get acclimated to using a numeric keypad on the left hand side after decades of using conventional layouts. However, it’s coming along and with time will likely be more natural.The combination of price, build quality, and compatibility of accessories make me happy to have chosen this keyboard and combination.

This is a standard sized keyboard with the number pad on the left side instead of the right. I'm left handed but can mouse with both hands and have taught myself to use a standard keyboard, so it's taking me a little while to remember where my keypad is now. I am not sure it's a value add for me, because I generally like to be able to use my number pad and mouse interchangeably and it helps to have the numbers to my right, but I can see this being useful for someone who is strongly left-hand dominant. My biggest issue is that the location of the "\" key is different on this keyboard from all of the others in my house. Instead of being above the enter key, it's next to it. Normally my enter key is a reverse "L" shape. With the change in location of the '\" key I have to stretch my pinkie finger further to hit the enter key. I have wasted a decent amount of time having to stop touch typing and look at the placement of my fingers because I think I'm hitting the enter key only to find that I haven't been and I have to go back and correct errors that have a lot of \\\\ in them. This is also occurring for some other keys (such as the <=). This is not something I am willing to adapt to and since I can use a number pad that is on the right side I expect I'll end up going back to a regular keyboard.

The most important thing about this keyboard is that it takes some getting used to if you're switching from a standard right-hand keyboard. All the buttons work fine. The enter button and the relocation of the backslash button are a little jarring though. I do love that there are a couple of extra UBS ports on the back of it.My biggest issue is that this keyboard weighs very little. There's no weight to it at all. I'm afraid I'll break it it's so lightweight. You are probably thinking to yourself "How lightweight can it possibly be? It can't be that bad." Nothing would have prepared me for how lightweight it is.

I recoiled from left handed keyboards cause I couldn't see a need for one. "Just use your other hand. Is your fingers broken?" Then I had to do manual inputs on a old copy machine. Game changer. You don't have to move your hand off the mouse to get to the field you need, and your other hand can just clack away. Saves so much time it's nutty. And having USB on the unit makes it easy to push Firmware instead of moving to the back of the machine, just plug into the board and go.

This keyboard is amazing. It has definitely changed the way I work and input data on a day-to-day basis at work. It is great quality and I have had no issue thus far. It has a small lift that can pulled out which is great when using with an ergonomic keyboard pillow.
