Very nice product. I am not into all wireless products, so this keyboard is fine. Being that it has Illumination and the extra power required for this feature probably makes it not feasible in a wireless version. The keys are closer together then some boards, they have a nice feel to them. The layout works just fine and the illumination of the keys work fine, but I don’t really work in the dark. All in all, just what I expected.

I wanted a back lighted keyboard because I like to work in a low lighted room at home. I also wanted a keyboard that had programmable buttons, and the usual other hot keys. Not only does this keyboard have all that, it has a great feel and look. It is made of stronger plastic than usual, has a very sleek design and the keys have a solid feel. I would prefer some programmable keys that do not replace a pre-programmed key, to increase the number of hot keys, but it works.

This keyboard is by far the best one I’ve ever used. The keys are illuminated allowing you to leave the lights off. For mmo gaming this is a must have. The keys are ultra quiet. Nothings worse than having to hear the anoying clacking of keys while you type. And with the keys clealy visable even in zero light. You won’t be having issues with typos. I deffinately recomend this keyboard

This is my third Logitech illuminated keyboard so you know I like these. I use these for both general computer usage and for printing in a dark or lowly lit room.

Good keyboard, worth the price. Been using it for nearly 2 months without any issue.

MONEY WELL INVESTED, THE KEYBOARD KEYS ARE REALLY QUIET AND BECAUSE THE KEYBOARD IS LOWER TO THE SURFACE THAN OTHER KEYBOARDS, MY HANDS AND WRISTS DON’T TIRED AND I FIND I TYPE FASTER, AND I TYPE WITH SIX FINGERS, IF YOU LIKE THE BETTER THINGS IN LIFE, THIS KEYBOARD IS ONE OF THEM, ENJOY

I’ve only been using this keyboard for about 8 hours and love it… Takes a little getting used to the raised space bar (and those other buttons down there), but it’s great. AND it’s REALLY quiet!! I didn’t know how much noise I made with the keyboard till I got this thing… Also, I like the logitech software that came with it. I didn’t realize how much my Logitech mouse could do till I got this keyboard and started exploring the settings. It’s a whole new world for me… Getting this Expose style app switcher, and stuff like that. It’s nice!! So, yeah, off the bat, the big delete key throws me off a bit, along with the little backspace key, but… I can get used to it… This thing just feels rich… I figured I should treat myself to a nice keyboard since it’s probably the thing I touch most during the day…

This is everything I expected and more. The lighting is not just a gimmick but very useful when you are working at night. The keys feel great and are very quiet. This is a good quality piece of hardware and will spoil you quickly. I’m not using the Logitech drivers which only leaves a few specialty keys not working.

I’ve been using the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard (4000?) for years. I’ve found that I need to see the keys more often and thought the old keyboard quite large. While looking for low-vision keyboards I found this illuminated model. I thought I’d never adapt to or like a flat keyboard like this but I was so wrong. This is the best keyboard I’ve ever used. Easy strike, silent, and I can see the keys without bright room lighting — even without my glasses! A full numbers layout, easy extra function keys, great configuration, easy setup, and a sophisticated appearance. Love it. Highly recommended for everyone at all skill levels.

I spend hours on the computer every day, but I was using a cheap keyboard that made me feel like I was pounding an anvil. What a difference it is using this Logitech keyboard! My fingers dance over the keys! And the illumination is great when I want to use it in dim light. The non-skid surface and slim profile are bonus features I’m very glad to have. I only wish I’d bought this keyboard years ago! It was also a breeze to install, even with the extra features on the downloaded software. I also love the three-year warranty.

Now I can work at night and see the keys perfect, and the keys have a soft feel not the clacking sound when the keys are pressed.Very happy.

Regardless of the features, this is far & away the best keyboard I’ve ever used: The perfect layout of the buttons, the excellent feedback and feel of the action, the clarity & elegance of the graphics, the so-solid heft of this thing. And if you do your computing in a cave, I guess the illumination is useful; otherwise it’s just cool.

I use this keyboard on my desktop computer and I have to write that it undoubtedly has to be the best performing keyboard around. The great thing about it is that it requires no batteries, its corded (USB), so there is no lag time between the computer and the keyboard as battery performance winds down. The keys are quiet while typing and easy on the touch (short key stroke). Of course being from Logitech, the software is an easy download from Logitech and the keyboard is fully programable. Another great thing is that it is low profile and sturdy, it has some weight to it but not bulk, so it stays put on the desk while typing and of course, it is illuminated and has variable illumination at the touch of a button. Multimedia? Of course, more than I would ever require but it is there for the web surfer if needed. Probably the best feature of all in my opinion is that it is a USB keyboard, meaning no batteries to buy and personally I have never been fond of wireless from the beginning but somethings leave you no choice but then again, Logitech does. If there is anything about this keyboard that I don’t like, I have not found it as of yet and I have two of them, one I have been using well over a year now and another thing is that there are no character decals on the keys, so no E’s or T’s falling or rubbing off after a months use or so. So, if you are not into wireless, purchase this keyboard from B & H, you’ll love it.

This keyboard replaced an old Dell wireless that required finger pouncing to register a letter/number. Logitech has another great product here. I have to learn again that keys can be pressed gently and still register but the low profile is great for increasing my typing speeds. I would definitely recommend this product, just might take an adjustment period if you coming from an old school keyboard. ALLPROz

I have always thought that Logitech makes good quality equipment, but this keyboard is over the top. Key response and layout is great, it looks great, and the Illumination feature is COOL…

I sit at my computer in low light and this fits the ticket. It’s quiet, has the right features. A bit pricey but if you wait until its on sale its worth every penny spent
Breanne Abernathy (verified owner) –
I love how quiet this keyboard is. Also, since I tend to use it in the wee hours of the morning while the rest of the family is asleep, the illuminated keys mean I don’t need to keep the lights on.

I use this keyboard for a number of purposes as a visual media producer and college student.It is exactly how it appears and a comforting purchase. It has a sleek, professional appearance; illuminated keys for when I work in low lighting; and a smooth feel while typing, which is alleviating during extended use.Some concerns? There are times when you like that reassuring, harder keystroke so your fingers more easily find the right key. Also, the package only carries a USB connection. For this price, I would like a wireless keyboard.Logitech is a reliable manufacter, although in my case, need won over want, and I would recommend that a buyer consider their preferences if time allows.
