GrandTec FLX-2000 Virtually Indestructible Silicone Flexible Computer Keyboard, Black, USB, 109 Keys

I have a handful of these in a metal shop, and they have withstood that environment extremely well. I also have a large number of Rocksoul flexible keyboards in this same shop, and those are much more troublesome than the GrandTec. Over time, I will be replacing those with more of these "virtually indestructible" units.Neither brand is great for typing. The Rocksoul keyboards require very little force to activate a key, but typing on them feels almost annoyingly "spongy." Further, some of the Rocksoul units have started to register extraneous key presses, which can be very frustrating.The GrandTec keyboards require a significant amount of force to activate a key - it's similar to typing on an old fashioned mechanical typewriter - however, they have performed flawlessly.By the way - check the Grandtec website before buying here. You might find single units priced better there.Bottom line - more expensive than the Rocksoul flexible keyboard, but worth the extra money.

I bought my current keyboard 13 months ago. This is the second one I've had. The first one was destroyed by my kids in quite the innovative way (my daughter cut off the "J" key. We continued to use it for another several months till she found a way to spill water into the missing key's hole).I work from home and am on the computer a lot - so my computer is in the family room so I can work and watch the kids. That means they have access to it and they enjoy playing on it as well. Before buying the first one of these we purchased, we lost 3 keyboards to my toddler's hands.Yes, it takes a little bit to get used to it (a couple weeks). It is definitely a different feel. But, it works well and saves me from having to replace keyboards constantly. I would buy it again.

This keyboard is now 19.5 inches wide (side to side) and too large to fit in your pocket. 2.5 inches wider than a standard keyboard, it takes up too much space on a desk. The previous models included one that was 13.5" wide.We've used these keyboards in an industrial setting for years. The keys themselves have a definite click, and for silicone keyboards, these keys may be the best.But beware of the overall size.

This most recent purchase was a replacement for the antique beta VIK that I had used for at least five years... the one that had survived tons of filth and debris, cat fur, crumbs, coffee spills, several bathtub dunkings, numerous travel abuses, etc. The base of the old left side shift key eventually fatigued (but still worked), and many of the most used letters had lost their bright visual lettering... I'm told by others that the touch seems odd at first... too quiet and less "clickety clackety" than a regular KB... but that's precisely what I love that about it... It may take a few minutes to adjust to it... but the first time you spill something on it, you'll really adore it...

Bought one.Returned - unacceptable (many missed keystrokes)Bought a second one.Returned - unacceptable (top row of keyboard goes dead intermittently)Tried a third one in a bricks-and-mortar store.Did not buy - unacceptable (many missed keystrokes)The weird thing is, I bought one about three years ago and it was great. I used it until I wore it out. I could touch type at top speed with it. But I guess there is no suitable replacement- - I've had to go to a hard plastic keyboard instead. My point here is that it's not like I need to "learn how to use the device" or "there is a hardware incompatibility". The old one worked. Three new ones failed.Oh. Yeah. The mfr bitterly reports that CompUSA ripped off his idea and built their own. Maybe they did a better job . . .
