Excellent quality for the price! WORKS FOR APPLE/MAC!!!
By Mitty Walters - Author on Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2017
I'm an old school Mac guy, but avoid Apple peripherals (external hard drives, keyboards, wifi, etc) wherever possible. Not just because they're often insanely overpriced, but also because when Apple steps out of its core competency, quality takes a beating. Especially keyboards! Them puppies are as pretty as can be, but more fragile than D Trump's ego. One time a single drop of sweat rolled off my forehead and landed on my keyboard. The whole thing short circuited, sirens went off, and the ghost of Steve Jobs reached thru the screen and began rifling thru my pockets for $200 bucks. Anyway, this keyboard is great. The keys are light to the touch, responsive, do as told. I'm a fast typer, this keyboard does not slow me down. As a writer, I prefer keyboards/mice that plug in so that I don't lose momentum by being forced to go searching for batteries, right in the middle of a hot streak. Haven't tried the mouse yet, plan to keep it as a spare. This keyboard is not fancy, but it's cheap, works well, and does the trick. I also have the Logitech K120 and have been using it for years on another Mac with zero issues. The K120 is even cheaper, but it lacks the media buttons on top (volume up, volume down, etc). That's kind of annoying, hence the reason I bumped up to K200 this time. FOR APPLE USERS: Yes, the MK200 will work for you... even the volume buttons. When you plug it in the first time, a message will appear on the screen saying your computer needs some help recognizing it. All you have to do is press the buttons it asks you to press and then you can use it. Quick and easy! If you want the modifier buttons on the MK200 to work exactly as your old keyboard, you will have to swap the positions of the Command and Option keys. To do that: 1. Open "System Preferences" 2. Click "Keyboard" 3. Click "Modifier Keys" 4. Change (see attached screenshot): ---- Option Key to Command ---- Command Key to Option After that, all your quick key shortcuts will work as they did on your Apple keyboard. Hope that helps! UPDATE: Today is August 12, 2020... almost 3 years to the day since I bought this keyboard. I returned to this page so that I could buy another one for a dif computer. Since I was here, I thought I should go ahead and update my review. The original keyboard? I'm *still* using it!

Poor build quality and high failure rate
By CrunchyCookie on Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2020
This combo has a nice design. The keyboard doesn't mess with tradition, putting all keys where they belong (and the calculator button's a nice touch). The mouse is a proper size/height and has a good scroll wheel. Tactile satisfaction is good, and $20 is fair. But I've bought THREE of these MK200 combos over the past year, and each had a major flaw. On the first combo, the keyboard's spacebar was wonky, only working when pressed in a certain spot. On the second, the mouse wheel was stiff and imprecise. So I exchanged it for this third combo that was fine at first, but now three months in, the keyboard is acting up strangely. When I press Shift + a letter key, one of the two just doesn't register sometimes, causing frequent typos; the number pad's Enter key also cuts in and out on a whim. If that's not enough, the mouse is starting to register single clicks as double-clicks, making the whole affair a glitchfest concerto. If my math is correct, 3 out of 3 samples konking out calculates to a failure rate of 100%. Worse, Logitech's customer service reps seem to try to not honor the warranty -- it took about ten back-and-forth e-mails before they caved in, despite my clear-cut proof of purchase and being well within the warranty period. Avoid this product and avoid this company.
