DSI Industrial Waterproof Keyboard 107 Keys with Touchpad Latest Version

Great

So far so good!

Rubber tore off control key from repeated storing in back pack.

I ordered the DSI Waterproof Keyboard with built in touchpad to replace my regular keyboard and mouse that I use every day for work. The goal was to help with shoulder pain from having my mouse too high. The keyboard is nice, and is probably everything it says it is about being dust proof, waterproof, etc. However, it is very SMALL, and I am returning it for this reason.I (female) have small hands and there's no way I would have been able to type quickly or normally without making errors. Just to get my fingers to fit on the keys, I had to scrunch my fingers close together rather than having a relaxed natural finger position. The keyboard itself is like a single heavy piece of rubber enclosed over all of the keys. I did not plug it in to try it, but it seemed the keys needed to be pressed with more pressure than a normal keyboard.I gave it 3 stars because even though it didn't work for me, it does seem like a sturdy keyboard that matches the description of being rugged, water resistant, and dust/crumb proof. Points deducted because it is not full size like I need (which my fault for not looking at the dimensions) and the difficulty of pressing down the keys when typing.

Like most of these portable waterproof keyboards with touchpads, they’re not the most comfortable to type on, but one should expect that. I keep this in my bag for situations where I unexpectedly need to handle issues with a machine that has no input device, and it’s fine for that.My main gripe is the rubber is not at all durable — I had a corner of the PCB cut through the rubber in a matter of days on both units I purchased. I typically buy Solidtek (and this design is remarkably similar) and I usually don’t see that for about a year. I am not particularly hard on my devices so I wouldn’t expect this. Having said that, the waterproofing isn’t particularly important to me but it certainly will be to some.The other issue is I have had a handful of machines that will not recognize this keyboard. It’s a very small percentage, but on those machines I have tested my other keyboards and they worked fine. Not ideal since I never know what I may be connecting to, but not necessarily a dealbreaker because it seems highly infrequent.In all these will not replace my primary choice for portable keyboard/touch pad combo, but they will work in a pinch.
