Logitech K310
* great pressure and depression for touch typing--just enough spring so can go fast. Not too deep but less shallow than laptop. Seems just right for fluent typing.
* legs underneath the board which slant board if you wish--keeps it from lying flat for easier typing
* washable feature obviously--for those of us who do most of our fine dining over our keyboard, it's great to be able to immerse the board in 10 inches of soapy water to wash off the powdered sugar and jelly from breakfast donut, ketchup-mustard-pickle juice mix from Quarter Pounder lunch, orange cheesedoodle powder from snack, taco dribblings from T. Bell dinner, spilled red wine from all night Pinterest session, melted Dove Bar droppings from same, cigarette ash, cat hair and the like. Okay, not all of those, but fun to imagine. There's even a little bath brush for the keys stowed underneath the keyboard for donut sprinkles which cling stubbornly, and with malice, between the keys.
* white keys with black print--easy to see as the evening gloaming settles in and you forget to/don't feel like turning on the light.
* silent nature of keys when depressed--my other board clackety-clacked more.
My 27-year-old son, who is a game designer, liked this keyboard so much he asked if I'd like to just give it to him. Uh, no, but it will go on his Christmas list. He said his roommate who is a tad OCD, and a programmer, would probably love this keyboard. Great gift for folks for whom cleanliness is a priority. (Wish it were more of one for me, so this washable keyboard helps.) I recommended this keyboard to a friend on one of Amazon's mystery threads and she already ordered one.
Only suggestion for company: they may wish to make an immersible keyboard with darker-thicker-larger printing on keys (probably have to be slightly bigger, too) for folks who don't wear glasses and should, or for the niche market with less than perfect sight.
This washable-immersible keyboard should be a strong seller for the company. I'm delighted with it; it exceeded expectations.
This is really a well-made product. The Logictech keyboard itself is strong and sturdy. The keys themselves are hard and firm and the labeling of the keys is large and clear. It comes with a great lengthy cord too that is protected with a water tight cap if you do decide to submerse it.
Yes, this keyboard is water proof! It is designed to be cleaned the way you wish you could. No more small particles of food or hair to wonder if they will ever brush out or fall out. Submerse it, wash it and dry it and you're done!
It's wide enough, strong enough and durable. Something that if you are accident prone or you have children, this is the keyboard you really need!
INSTALATION: Very easy. No software. Plug and Play.
MANUALS/GUIDES: Clear, concise and really not needed.
USER INTERFACE: Standard automatic installation for Windows.
USING SOFTWARE: No software to use!
I like this Logictech keyboard and recommend it for anyone who wants a keyboard that you can actually completely clean! Buy this!
Along comes this guy - a truly WASHABLE keyboard! There was no hesitation on my part in ordering this up immediately... that and my long string of good luck with the Logitech brand gave me confidence in the product.
The keyboard is what I would call high visibility in that it is a black background with white keys. No the letters or keys aren't any larger than normal but the keys are strangely easier to see. There is also a little more distance between the keys compared to your typical DELL or other mass-produced keyboard.
Other nice features include full USB Plug-n-Play support, long cord, quiet/non-clacky keys and even comes with a USB cap (for washing) and a little brush for keeping the keys tidy! Neat!!
The enclosed packing materials goes into the Do'd and Do Not's of washing the keyboard - pretty straight forward. No - we have not [yet] washed ours. I will amend this review once I/we do so.
All in all this is a great keyboard for a machine that might encounter spills or other calamities.
UPDATE: It didn't take long before it was time to wash off my keyboard. All I needed to do was make sure the cap was on the USB cord. Then I ran it under water only, dried it and let it air dry for a bit. I found that shaking the board to get excess water out-helped. Perfect! It's clean and shiny just like the first day I got it.
Any different equipment requires time to become familiar. In my case, the Logitech keyboard is slimmer and lower than my factory-supplied Dell keyboard. Also, the washable keyboard is a bit quieter and requires less force on the keys. For me, this is a difficult adjustment. My favorite type of keyboard is that of the antique manual typewriter. I like to really pound on the keys.
The wash and wear feature of the Logitech keyboard is so desirable that I'm willing to adapt to its design. I touch type and after only a few days I'm achieving a nice comfort level with this keyboard. The bright, white keys look nice on the black casing. Also, the F-key shortcuts should be quick handy after I learn to use them. The little cleaning brush that fits into the bottom of the keyboard is a nifty feature.
So, I spilled some Coke Zero on the keyboard, unplugged it, and stuck it under the bathroom faucet. After allowing it to dry overnight, I hooked it up. Good as new! It really is a wash and wear keyboard.
The price is right for clean computing; $39.95 is a good deal.
