Pros:
-I've spilled juice and coffee on it, and washed it with soap and water under my bathtub tap each time. It comes clean very easily, and works again instantly with only towel drying.
-The key design makes it easy to clean even without washing, you can easily access under the keys to sweep out crumbs and dust.
-It's satisfying to use, the key resistance isn't too high.
Cons:
-It's slightly louder than a slim-type laptop style keyboard, which is what I'm used to.
I am using this on my kid's computer. They eat and drink at the computer desk (no matter how many times I tell them not too!). So far, it's been a snap to clean! Personally, it's not the kind of keyboard *I* would like as the keys have a different feel than my traditional keyboard which makes it a bit more difficult to type. My kids have no issues however (but they henpeck ). I would definitly recommend this if you eat or drink at your keyboard
I do eat at my computer which I know it bad but now I can wash the nasty thing when it gets too bad. I really like the white on black also. It's a nice contrast. They should buy those things where I work......yuck!
I luv this washable keyboard because I am consantly spilling my coffee or water on my keyboard and destroying them...but not with this one...you can submerge this entire keyboard into soapy water and it will still work with no problems...this is a great invention and kudos to Logitech for this great idea~
I love this keyboard. It is soft and easy to the touch. It is full sized but not bulky on my limited work space. It can be washed! I think this is a genius idea because I often eat while working at my PC. No more turning over, banging and sweeping with a little brush or removing keys to sweep out under them.
Bought this for myself for an early Christmas gift. It's great! It looks good, feels good, works instantly by just plugging into a USB port. And it is every bit as cleanable as advertised. Standard keyboard, in size and layout, with nice large easy keys. Usual little flip-up feet to get a slight tilt for more comfortable typing. Handy brush in a built-in holder on the back of the keyboard, too. In short, every thing I hoped it would be. No more grubby-looking keyboards for me! I'd recommend this to anyone.
Some folks have written about the mushy feel of this keyboard, but I say it feels great! It's much easier on my fingers and quieter. You still get a soft click for those who want that reassurance of a clicking keyboard. I've had no problem adjusting to the different feel, and no problem with the arrangement of keys as some have indicated. I have not bathed it yet, either on purpose or not. I don't drink anything but water around the keyboard, so food has been the big issue with my regular keyboard, and now it's not. Everything dusts off very easily without all those nasty cracks and crevices that food (and dust) likes to fall in. Love the keyboard!
As most of my work involves being on a computer my normal keyboard would get extremely dirty and disgusting. It was always a hassle to clean out food from underneath the keys or a spilled drink that would make the keys sticky which in turn would allow dust to get stuck on. I finally got tired of the problem and decided to buy this keyboard and it's just perfect. The spacing between keys actually makes it so I type even faster and I wouldn't say it's like typing on a mechanical keyboard but I am really enjoying the feel of the keys and the soft click each one makes. More importantly IT IS really easy to clean out dirty, food or anything. It even comes with a convenient cleaning brush that attaches to the bottom of the keyboard. Great product for a fair price! I would highly recommend this for anyone that sits at a keyboard all day, such as Web Developers.
I have been using this keyboard for a while now and it is the main keyboard that I use. I have always had a problem with dirty keyboards because of the amount of time that I use the keyboard and because of this it gets really dirty. With this keyboard I am able to wash it and keep it clean every week. I have had no problem washing it. The keyboard is also very nice for typing. The keys feel sturdy and is quite similar to using my other keyboard.
-Keyboard has clips on the bottom for elevating keyboard for easy typing
-Very easy to clean. Comes with a brush to clean more
-Nice looking keyboard
-I bought this keyboard from Amazon and it was delivered fast
I purchased this after really getting used to a MacBook Pro keyboard and enjoying how much space there are between keys. These keys are spaces out very nicely and prevents me from fat-fingering while typing. The keyboard being washable is just and added perk and it worked great. The cost is very reasonable for the product you are getting.
I had been concerned to see that solvent from alcohol wipes drips into the keyboard mechanism, causing keystrokes to become unreliable. Now I even use bleach disinfecting wipes between the keys.
Was walking in the store and tried this keyboard and loved it.
I can type much better on this.
The keys have great action and spring to them and the quality is excellent.
I found out it was waterproof later, when I was getting ready to buy it.
This is good because I once spit beer all over a keyboard
when I was laughing (happened 2 times, . . yeah I know)
and it destroyed the keyboard. Don't have to worry about that now.
Plus it's wired : I hate having to always change batteries on things.
I'm gonna to buy another just to have a spare.
It does type a bit more mushy than normal keyboards, but the fact that I won't have another one die after my toddler spills my coffee onto it, is amazing! It's quite small and thin, so it doesn't take up much room on the desk as well. I'm just really happy that I don't have to worry about spills anymore :) I also like the way it looks, quite neat. Normally I don't like white keys because they get grungy, but that isn't an issue as this one can be washed.

I've lived with the keyboard through the weekend (I'm on the computer a lot), and I just love it. I don't have issues typing, the key feel is quite nice to me. Really I am very happy with this purchase. I love the keyboard. It looks nice, types nicely, and I love that it is washable. But really even without the washable quality, I would love it.

A helpful toddler spilled my coffee on my keyboard this weekend. It was awesome to just be able to run it under the sink. Highly recommended purchase for those with little ones or who are prone to messes! (I have both ;p)
I bought one of these keyboards for my wife, to replace her aging Logitech UltraFlat USB keyboard. I thought it looked great, but the fact that the K310 was simple to clean of pet fur and food crumbs, with no crevices or tray beneath the keys, was also very appealing to me.
After I got it set up on her computer, I was so impressed that I decided to replace my Logitech Illuminated Keyboard with one too! I have no regrets- the white keys are actually easier to identify by the light of my monitor than the Illuminated Keyboard keys were from the key backlight plus monitor light. Key feel and response is great, and I think it looks great too. Also, the lack of wrist rest makes it a better keyboard to pair with my Wacom Intuos tablet (I keep my keyboard immediately above my tablet, instead of next to it- how I've always worked).
This is a very comfortable Keyboard and I like using it almost as much as my Main Keyboard. The keyboard is very easy to keep clean and I recommend it to anyone looking for a great Keyboard
I'm a software developer so my living depends on my ability to type quickly and accurately. I was previously using just a generic Lenovo keyboard but I'm so glad I switched to this one!
So many things are right about this keyboard. Let's start with the look of it: I was impressed as soon as I took it out of the box. I have to admit that it does look a little like an Apple keyboard might look, but the white on graphite gray contrast is quite attractive. It's reminiscent of the Kindle Keyboard color, which I was always a fan of. It also does a fair job of hiding dirt - when I clean it I'm surprised by how much dirt is on it because I never notice it like I used to on my old, black keyboard.
It feels really nice under my fingers. This may sound weird, but it's one of the best keyboards I've put my hands on in terms of comfort. Because I play classical guitar I have somewhat long nails on one hand making it a little frustrating for me to type on traditional keyboards because my nails fit between the keys, made even worse by the fact that most keyboards are designed with concave keys. This keyboard instead offers slightly flatter keys with plenty of space between them such that my nails never get caught and it's very easy to type fast. This is made even better by the satisfying sound the keys make. I never thought about it until a few years ago when my friend brought it up to me, but the best keyboards are the loudest. Why? Because that closes the feedback loop to the brain registering a key press. It's a subtle detail that really makes a difference to me. My old keyboard made noise, but not like this one. I wouldn't call it excessively loud, I'd say it's very appropriate.
The main draw of the keyboard is that it's advertised as washable - is this true? Yup. I ran it under water with soap just as the instructions said and it worked like a charm! It comes with a small brush that attaches to the underside of the keyboard that I used to brush off some of the dry dirt, then washed it and left it out to dry. It takes at least 8 hours to get it dry (even after you towel it down, there's plenty of areas where it's hard to see the water). Using it after being washed is no different than before other than it being cleaner.
I have only one gripe with this keyboard: the legs on the back are a little short. I would prefer them to be a little longer to give me a bigger inclined on the keyboard. Other than that, I have no issues to report in my 2 months of using this keyboard. I highly recommend picking it up!
First, technically, almost all USB keyboards are washable. I have a pair of Dell SK-8125 keyboards that I've been putting through the dishwasher for years. I take one out of the dishwasher, and hang it near the dehumidifier in the basement for 6mo, until I'm ready to swap & wash again. Never a problem. Your mileage may vary.
The feature that attracted me to this is the raised wells the keys sit on; you can (carefully) give this a quick rinse and be immediately back in business. The surface is otherwise perfectly smooth, no crevices for stuff to accumulate in.
The key snap is not as crisp as I'd like, but it's not mushy either; it's definitely got more snap than the average laptop or chiclet style keyboard.
The only thing wrong, thus the 1-star penalty, is the USB cord is hard-wired into it. I suspect most people's computers aren't sitting in plain view with easily accessible USB ports. Mine isn't. It would be VASTLY simpler to have the keyboard unplug AT the keyboard:
1. Instant disconnect, no crawl/reach to unplug from the computer.
2. Much simpler to clean without the cord to worry about.
Otherwise, it's another great product from Logitech. This keyboard is currently paired with my Logitech G500 mouse. Love 'em both.
