a bit ago, my laptop keyboard shorted out , and i spent 20 bucks on a keyboard that squeaked when you typed and the space bar got stuck in on itself. i dont eat over my keyboard, so there was nothing to cause that old keyboard to do that, it was a design flaw in a cheap product that they sold for four times the amount it was worth. it was something youd expect to findin five below NOT THIS KEYBOARD. they keys have weight to them they take effort to press down so youre not accidentally hitting doubles of every key you type. ssoo tthhinggss dontt looook likee thiss. anymore. the space bar feels like its socketed into bar beneath it rather than a single circular slot that the bar teeter totters on allowing it to get stuck in the socket the keys DONT SQUEAK when you type setting your teeth on edge. my only real complaint is HOW i type, theres not alot of space at the left bottom corner for my wrist to rest on. i type with the keyboard angled so up to the right. bit straight on so im always hitting the control button. butthats not a problem i havent had with other keyboards so im not going to complain i do it all the time so its no biggie. the mouse is on the smaller side im used to them being bulkier in the palm. but it doesnt have a short in it out of the box (like the other set) so ill endure it. i am very satisfied with this set and will buy again for my older computer that has a similar problem with the keyboard highly recommend to everyone.

This is a two piece set with a keyboard and mouse, as described. Upon closer inspection, this is a chiclet keyboard like you might find on some laptops. They are small keys, inset into the face of the keyboard with the rubber dome type inputs for the keys. The keys themselves are a light plastic and are fairly responsive. Im writing this review on it right now, in fact. Its about the same quality as any budget keyboard, with decent quality plastic. Obviously, you arent buying this keyboard because you want the very best, you are buying it because youre on a budget and want something of decent quality. I think you get that with this set, as I find typing on it isnt too bad, and it is fairly responsive. The keys are spaced nicely and doesnt feel cramped. You get all of the keys you would expect. The escape key isnt too different from the rest of the keys and not spaced away from them, so it may be an issue to some, but is otherwise perfectly useful. Becuase of the size of the keyboard, some of the keys are perhaps closer than some might like compared to a full sized and full featured keyboard. The F keys are quite small, but if youre like me, they dont really matter too much. The extra keys, like the My Computer key, calculator key, and they media player key are decently useful and the addition of volume controls and a mute button are also nice. The Amazon Basics logo is unobtrusive. The num Lock key has an LED light to let you know it is on, as does the caps lock key. I found all the keys worked just fine. There is not a lot of surface outside of the keys, which could be a benefit or not, depending on your style of use. I find that it sits pretty flat. There are no flip out risers, so the small ledge at the top end is about as raised as this keyboard is going to get. The rubber feet underneath the keyboard keep the keyboard pretty well in place. I have no found no real fault or issues with this keyboard except for possibly the styling. This makes a pretty good backup keyboard in case your high performance one suddenly goes bad and you have work to get done. I even use it for gaming, where it isnt the utmost in performance as far as key presses go, but is perfectly serviceable for the majority of users. I have no experienced any real ghosting issues, but Im not likely to. The mouse that comes with this set seems prettys solidly built. It tracks well, has all your basic buttons, and while perhaps not the most ergonomic mouse I have ever used, it is very functional. The scroll wheel works well and both buttons click very positively without issue. My kids and wife use it on the family computer the most and they have no complaints. In fact, the fancy Razer Tron mouse they used to have on that computer stopped working correctly due to the infamous razer clicking problem. The best thing is that it just works without any need for fancy drivers or software. The kids use it fine with their games as well. Weve been using these two items for a couple of months now, and they have held up very well. They are very reliable and work just fine for most computing uses. For the price, this is a winning combination for most computer users. The only people I would not recommend this to is your hardcore gamer, as it will probably wear a bit fast in the usual areas and it is just a dome input so it isnt the best for extremely fast responses, and the key blandness might cause some confusion if you are the type to use a wide variety of keys.

02/03/19 i ordered the amazonbasics keyboard & mouse combo on may 2018. i will mostly speak about the keyboard. the mouse was simply a "bonus" for me to keep as a spare. the keyboard is what im typing on right now. it works well. i play games like daggerfall, 7 days to die, the sims 3, & warframe. it works great on all of em. however, theres the issue of rollover / nkey. it doesnt have good rollover. i noticed recently. im surprised that it hasnt affected my gameplay (im not competitive, so that may be why). the wasd keys are on their own circuit, but the rest are restricted to a measly 2 keys. i noticed recently when messin with a midi keyboard app. thatll be the only reason im looking for a new keyboard. the boards durable enough. i havent been abusive to it, but there are no defects after 6 months. the keys all do the job. the sound is ok -- not loud. size? full size but not huge. its got a number pad. good. i like the placement of the media keys -- specifically, the volume controls on the top-right. i briefly used the mouse. its smaller than the logitech that i use, but it feels good. it has an unusual, almost-rubbery feel to it. its hard to accurately describe, but it feels good lol. the sensitivity is a good setting (you dont really need one MEEElion dpi for gaming). again, the only issue with it was the size -- its small. tl;dr keyboard good. good mouse. good good. cheap. buy? very value. ..seriously, its great for the price.

Man.. the more I use this keyboard the more I love it. I recently re-ordered the Dell KM714 Wireless keyboard for my work keyboard because its wireless and the battery life on that set is awesome. However, after a while of being at home and using my Amazon basics keyboard, now Im seriously considering buying this keyboard for work and retiring the wireless one. I so wish that Amazon made this same exact keyboard in a wireless version. Amazon!! Please! Please! Pretty please make a wireless version!! Many wireless keyboards or keyboards in general these days also dot have a caps lock key light. Which to me is a luxury. Even though this key board is more clackety-clackety than the Dell one I ordered, the spacing of the keys means that for me this keyboard is far more accurate and Im a much faster typer on this keyboard than the Dell. Just love it!

I was using a mechanical keyboard that made me have to type at an angle, and the keys had some resistance going down. I didnt care until I noticed that I was having some hand pain. Fearing it might be carpal tunnel, I ended up doing a bunch of hand stretches, and also replaced by keyboard with the amazon basics keyboard I was using before. I think the stretches helped fix damage that was done, and using the keyboard prevented any further damage from building up. My room mate was also developing hand problems, and I brought an amazon basics keyboard for him and told him to use it to help with his hand problems. He said his hand problems are gone too. So, Im not going to claim that this keyboard fixes hand problems because it could have in fact been a coincidence as me and my room mate were both trying other things to fix our hand issues. But shortly after we switched to the amazon keyboards, our issues were gone, so it *could* be the case that this keyboard helps prevent hand issues for some people.

The keyboard and the mouse are both okay but not great. The mouse feels lightweight and not sturdy. It works well but does not have a sturdy feeling in your hand. The keyboard keys sit up somewhat high off the board, feel clunky and more like push buttons than keys, and are loud. I use the keyboard and mouse as very occasional interfaces to my Raspberry Pi computer, which is set up for gaming and normally accessed through a game pad/controller. I bought the keyboard and mouse for the very rare instances when I need to access the OS and interface with the text-based GUI. So for the low price and limited use, the keyboard and mouse are fine. If I had to use these interfaces everyday for longer periods of time, I would probably be dissatisfied and frustrated. The price is low BUT you definitely get what you pay for in this case. I generally love AmazonBasics products, such as cables, for the value, but this particular pairing is lacking.

Inexpensive but generally well made - great as a regular keyboard or an inexpensive replacement. I learned to type on an old manual "standard typewriter" so I have a tendency to pound the keyboard pretty hard and I type fast so I give a keyboard a real workout. I have not had this keyboard break and Ive been using for well over a year now. This keyboard has a pleasant tactile sensation when typing but still a light touch. It also is very lightweight, which can be a bit of a negative because as I type, unless I pull it over the edge of the desk to hook it in place, it has a tendency to travel. The mouse is also nice (infrared) - but it doesnt come apart for cleaning - so if it gets gummed up then you cant clean the wheel and have to toss it out. This is a negative - I had bought a mouse-only before (AmazonBasics) and had to throw it out because I couldnt clean it. Only negative is I wish it had a lighted keyboard - even a back light would be nice. For the price, its still good but I took off one star because you cant pull apart the mouse without breaking it.

The Amazon keyboard feels and handles very well - way better than conventional PC keyboards. For the money, complete no-brainer. Few things I do want to mention: - the keyboard may be slightly wobbly even when on a completely flat surface. You can easily solve that by grabbing the keyboard and gently twisting. Worked great afterwards. - the keyboard is very slim, and does not consume excessive real estate on your desk. - sadly there are no gaps between F4/F5 and F8/F9. So if you are used to keyboard shortcuts such as Alt+F4, the gaps on legacy keyboards are no longer there to guide you. Minor annoyance however. Overall, I highly recommend the Amazon keyboard!

I purchased this set because it was cheap and I needed a keyboard and mouse for my Raspberry Pi workbench. Ive only had them a few days but they work flawlessly. Theyre cheap and affordable. I may end up purchasing a couple more sets just to keep as spares or have for when I work on systems for others. The mouse is responsive even without a mouse pad. I have it on a wood desk that I built from scratch. I dont have any issues with my cursor jumping around. The keyboard is great! Very responsive, feels good to type on, and will work perfect for coding my Raspberry Pi projects.

I just got this today and found that the left/right buttons were not clicking. However, when I checked another Amazon mouse I had bought 3 months ago, I saw the problem. Below the 2 buttons is where the cords comes out. Just above the cord but below the buttons is a small rubber piece that holds down the cord and should sit flush to where the buttons push down. My buttons didnt work because the small rubber piece was push up less than a 1/8 of an inch and kept the buttons from clicking down. I used the flat side of a very small screw driver and was able to push the rubber piece back down on top of the cord. The buttons can now be clicked. This tells me that who ever makes these (china?), do not do much sample quality control checking.
