It was very easy on my hands and saw heavy duty use. After several years, it died and I was devastated: they don't make them any more. (It's my understanding the dongles don't mix and match, so buying used is a big gamble.) I couldn't find a decent split, thin profile keyboard other than this one. I was hesitant but also desperate, so here we are. It's great. Easy on the hands, sees at least 40 hours of use every week, each part is charged every 1-2 weeks. Wonderful substitute, my only complaint is the logoff button on the numpad. Work pc won't let me adjust definitions and so every time I bump it, there's a long process because work pc. I made a sad little cardboard cover to block it, but it slips off. Other than that, very happy with it. Review: Not ideal - Not most typing friendly. Missing Martian regular keyboard keys, not ideal for Mac users. ## Features - Ergonomic Comfort Design: The wireless ergonomic keyboard features with curved and split keyset design, which helps to position your wrist and forearm in a more natural and relaxed posture. Scooped scissors-switch keys perfectly match the shape of your fingertips, offering quick response with every keystroke.

Missing Martian regular keyboard keys, not ideal for Mac users. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfectly balanced Ergo keyboard with a brilliant split keyboard approach for easier mousing *by D***G on 30 April 2025* Finally, real engineering thinking went into an ergonomic keyboard. I love this. It's the right price. The reason I bought this one was the price, but I was hoping for the best. The simple design logic of splitting the main keyboard from the extended numbers pad is brilliant. It seems so obvious. First of all, people hunting for ergo keyboards also use keyboard trays to make sure their elbows at the right height -- and most of these aren't that wide. This design solves the problem by splitting off the numbers pad -- now you can move it in when you need it without forcing your mouse hand far to the right in an bad ergonomic zone. Simple, right? So why don't more keyboard makers do it? I bought their matching "handshake" mouse as well (the vertical kind -- it's very good too.) Is it ergonomic? It is for my hands (normal sized male hands). I saw one person complain about keyboard click, but I don't notice anything. I have mechanical keyboards, which are far noisier. This one is slightly clickier than a logitech, but way quieter than a mechanical. It's perfect for me. The keyboard layout is good, except I'm a Mac user, so the Windows key I had to train myself to think of it as the Mac Command key -- I just had to force myself to use it. It's counter-intuitive. I like that it's rechargeable on USBC -- charged quickly, and havent' had to recharge so far in heavy use (I type about 10,000 words a day). Highly recommended. I like the faux leather hand rest better than a spongy memory foam style (like Logitech's ergo keyboard, which I have as well -- those foam ones are softer but get dirty from sweat, cat hair (in my case, since my cat likes to sleep on keyboards), etc. I like the faux leather feel and style. Thumbs up all round, except the stupid Win Key, and I think it's a mistake to have the power button on the bottom (Most people probably don't turn off keyboards, but I do, otherwise my cat will be sending emails to people.) . ## Frequently Bought Together - ProtoArc Wireless Ergonomic Keyboard, EK04 2.4GHz Wireless Ergo Keyboard with Separate Numeric Keypad, Split Design, Wrist Rest, Rechargeable, for Desktop, PC, Laptop - ProtoArc Ergonomic Mouse, EM11 NL Bluetooth Rechargeable Wireless Vertical Mouse, 3 Multi-Device Connectivity for Computer/PC/Laptop, 2.4GHz Optical Mice for Windows, Mac OS, Black - Logitech Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse, Wireless, Bluetooth or Logi Bolt USB receiver, Quiet clicks, 4 buttons, compatible with Windows/macOS/iPadOS, Laptop, PC - Graphite --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/705149535-protoarc-wireless-ergonomic-keyboard-ek04-2-4ghz-usb-wireless-ergo](https://www.desertcart.is/products/705149535-protoarc-wireless-ergonomic-keyboard-ek04-2-4ghz-usb-wireless-ergo) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
