Kensington Washable USB Keyboard with Antimicrobial Protection

Needed to replace a presenter we gave a teacher, so we went with a familiar and useful design. Works fine. Not fancy but has been reliable.

For those with small hands this is probably a great device, but I have very large hands making it a bit awkward to hold. Fortunately it is heavy enough with a rubberized texture to give it a nice feel.

  This just works. Tested on Windows, Linux, and Chromebook with Google Slides. Both Forward and Backward buttons work, but the Screen Blank feature doesn't work with Google Slides. The USB Dongle tucks away conveniently.

  The USB dongle is huge. In 2016 I have become accustomed to small USB devices, but this one sticks out nearly 2 inches for maximum breakbility. I really hope it doesn't snap off in my laptop. The laser pointer is the weakest and smallest dot I've ever seen.

Well designed, ergonomic presenter, together with green laser pointer, makes a fine combination at a good price. I liked the idea of having a "captive" USB receiver, as it means one less little "thing" to worry about leaving behind.

This wireless pointer/clicker is awesome! It helps when presenting so we don't have to stand around the laptop and click, we can do it from anywhere around the room.

I bought this keyboard 1 month ago for its layout, which is awesome. Finally a keyboard with both a big BackSpace key AND a big Enter key! The compromise is that the "\" (that shifts to |) is weirdly located, right near the reduced right shift key.

It is not made clear that there is no memory stick. This is just a clicker. Works fine but useless when compared to the Kensington that has a 4 gb usb.

I have had 2 and neither lasted for even a year. I bought the second one thinking it was fluke that the first broke but it lasted only 4 or 5 months too. I don't use them that often so felt they should have lasted, with batteries removed so they didn't corrode, for longer

  size, ease of use

  2 didn't last

I purchase this to use as a laser pointer for presentations given on a 80 inch LCD TV. The red laser pointers disappear into a black hole and are useless. The green just barely shows up. Most people can hardly see it.

Used it with a Mac. It plugged in and worked straight out of the box. It fits nicely in the hand.

I had to replace my previous one because the receiver disappeared. The laser of the new one, same model as the old, is hard to see in a classroom. Previous one was noticeably brighter.

  Advances slides as expected. Works with LibreOffice as well as PowerPoint.

  Weak laser.
