XL Glow in Dark and Spill-Resistant Keyboard (72-72582)

Pros:Big clear letters- easy to see, classic key layout, spill resistant, inexpensive, interesting color and material.Actually glows in the dark. Soft touch - easy to type. Works.Cons:some keys may not function well and need adjustment.Luckily there s a simple DIY fix:1. Stick your finger nail under a faulty key to pop it out (keys are snap on, wouldn't break).2. Cut a piece of paper (regular printing paper) little smaller than the key hole.3. Insert this piece closer to unresponsive corner of the key. (fold paper if needed, may need some adjustment)4. Install the key back into the holeThat's it, your keyboard is perfect after a simple adjustment.

This keyboard is extremely challenging to use. There are some essential keys that usually don't work, such as the letter "i", "r", and some others. Tonight the numerical keyboard quit working, so it becomes necessary to use the numbers over the letters. If you don't mind constantly using spell check, and not using the separate numerical keyboard--and I almost forgot to mention that the keys stick--as I said the keyboard s challenging. Rather dscouraging to say the least. I will admit that the keys glow in the dark. The shipping charges were much greater than the cost of the keyboard, whch shuld have given me a clue that this keyboard wasn't going to work well. It was a reduced price. If you could have free shipping and ou want a challenge, then by all means try this keyboard.

Hubby has been having eye troubles for last year and a half; rips in his retinas, causing numerous laser treatments. The rips allowed fluid to escape into the eyeball, It will take nearly two years for all the fluid to be absorbed. He has "floaters" in his vision. Since he prefers dim light, those black keyboards with faint white lettering is a strain for him to use. I saw this and got it for him. He loves it. The bright eyes show the big lettering. Soft touch so more comfortable for the fingers when writing.Unless it received direct light source to charge it, it doesn't glow. It's like the early glow in the dark watches. It must have strong light for long period to charge the luminous ability to work. Even when not glowing, the keys stand out for easy vision.He's an grumpy sort who doesn't take to change, but he's finding this excellent solution to dim light and much less strain on his vision.

Just bought this, and the fluorescence has petered out. Just like a dog ball that you hold under the light, eventually it will no longer absorb light. This keyboard had instructions with a 2012 date. I believe these keyboards were fine when first manufactured, but time has made the fluorescence kaput. The lime green color is very appealing, and the keyboard has a rubbery spring that I like, So if you just need a good keyboard, I do recommend it. However, I really wanted the gentle illumination. Have now bought a backlit keyboard.

Not good for smaller hands. I got this for my iMac when my son spilled on my old keyboard. I was so used to the flat keys and easy controls. I do not like this keyboard. You have to press the keys a bit harder and some buttons such as the backspace button are a stretch for me. I guess I'll get used to it, but I wish I had my old keyboard functioning :(

Although the first keyboard I received had major problems (the entire row of numeric keys, as well as the INS, HM, and other keys, were not working), when I notified Amazon about the problem they promptly fulfilled a request for a replacement. At my request they arranged pickup with UPS and had a return label provided to the driver when he came for the pickup. The new keyboard arrived Friday and I have been very happy with it. The keys are responsive and easy to read. Though I haven't tried out the glow-in-the-dark feature (I need to put it where there is more light for charging to test it out), I am very happy with it as a keyboard. I am a touch typist and find the keys provide comfortable feedback with little noise. I would definitely recommend the product to buyers, just be aware the first item received may not be perfect, but the wait for the fully-working version was defintely worth it.

I have large, wide hands. The standard size for hobbits gives me cramps. Being able to work the number pad from a natural position made it faster and comfortable. The green keys definitely stand out. Worth every penny. The key are "soft touch" and will teach you to lighten up your typing which will stop some joint pain.

this is not an illuminated keyboard. it does not claim to be. it does glow in the dark. the letters are large and the decals are not rubbing off. the usb cord had a fight with a vacuum cleaner and lost. I am replacing it with the same because you cant get a better keyboard for $10.00. be sure to always keep an emergency keyboard.

A good product

I ordered this for my daughter and grandson, they love it and I will try to order another xoxo Thank you

would type few words then the keyboard would stop and take at least a minute then the light would come back on and i could type a few more letters. tried everything thought it was the connection nothing worked>

I have just happily taken delivery of my new and much anticipated keyboard - although I was told that this would not arrive until the end of the month. I say 'much anticipated' because my eyesight (with ARMD) has started to quite noticeably impeded my use of a standard keyboard of late. There have been so many wrong keys selected - (although I had become quite good at typing) that even I could not work out what I had intended to say - never mind the spell check! I have tended to select a key near or next to the one intended - but if you do that for every letter in a word you get some interesting effects. -like 'unshobr' for 'imagine'I have only just started to type with this keyboard- and already I am finding it so much better because when you glance down to see where your finger should be going you can see the keys so much more easily. At the price I had to pay on Amazon(2.95) - even though the postage was nearly double the price I could afford to make a mistake even if I could not have returned it. The keys have a nice comfortable feel to them but I have no way of knowing whether the smart bold capital lettering in black on green will wear faint as my old keyboards have done. It looks quite robust and the lines of the letters are quite thick - but as I say, the price was so reasonable that you could afford to replace them frequently (if still available) I have not as yet been able to check for the luminosity of the keys which is mentioned - but this is not a feature than I personally am particularly bothered about although I can imagine that it could be an asset to some visually impaired clients.Incidentally the keys seem perfectly smooth(as were those on my other keyboard) and I cannot detect any tactile letter indicators that nay be required by some visual handicaps. I thought I would order another for when I use my husband's computer but have just noticed a MAJOR DISADVANTAGE - NO POUND SIGN ON KEYS ONLY DOLLARS!!!!!

I have found that several of the keys do not work. I am not sure if there was any guarantee
