Very easy to set up - My laptop keyboard started having issues so i bought this to use the laptop as a screen until i can get it fixed... but with the way this feels, i may leave it as it is. The keys are so soft and quiet - i had a clacky one which is satisfying at first but quickly became annoying, especially when the kids were sleeping. I loved the fact this came with batteries included in the package, and one USB connects both the mouse and the keys. It has a good weight to it but not excessively. I also love the standard sized arrow keys as the smaller ones are annoying. Overall - love this purchase and would highly recommend!

Keyboard: very good, low profile keys, silent, soft touch. Looks good too. No 'Fn' key on left side though (only 1 on the right) which might be an issue for some. Mouse: average... loud clicks, cheap plastic feel, very loud clunky middle scroll wheel click. Otherwise fast and responsive. Works on my Ubuntu 24.04 system. USB receiver plugged into the back. Product comes with batteries for both devices.

The keyboard feels comfortable to type on and the mouse is smooth with good sensitivity. Setup was instant with the USB receiver. It’s not a premium set, but for daily work and browsing it performs really well. The only improvement I’d like is adjustable keyboard height, but overall excellent for the price.

I’m very happy with this HP wireless keyboard and mouse set. Both were quick and easy to set up and worked straight away once plugged in, with no issues connecting. The keyboard is a good size and comfortable to use, with well-spaced keys that make typing easy and accurate. It feels sturdy and responsive, which is great for everyday use, whether for work, emails, or general browsing. The mouse is smooth and comfortable to hold, and it works well on different surfaces. It’s responsive and precise, with no lag, which is exactly what you want from a wireless mouse. I also like that the wireless connection helps keep my desk tidy, with no trailing cables. The overall build quality is very good, as you’d expect from HP, and it feels reliable and well made. Overall, this is a solid, dependable keyboard and mouse set that offers great performance for everyday use. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, good-quality wireless set from a trusted brand.

This HP 230 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo Set is the very epitome of cheap and cheerful, with one glaring flaw that really makes it unusable for me. That's why I am typing this review on another keyboard and mouse package (Artek HW192MW162). I bought this particular set because the keyboard was quite compact, having no wrist rest at the front. A three button mouse is fine for me. The keyboard uses two AAA batteries, whilst the mouse uses a single AA battery. I can't comment on battery life, for reasons outlined below. Both items (keyboard and mouse) are connected to the PC by a typical USB dongle, which works fine. The keyboard is one of those silent types with two membranes inside. Pressing a key completes a circuit to register the letter. It seemed quite responsive to me. This kind of keyboard may be cheap to manufacture, but they do not deal well with spillages. The older mechanical keyboards have a clearance beneath the keys to allow for the accumulation of dust and crumbs falling through the key spaces. The mess would gather in that gap without affecting the responsiveness of the keys. It was also possible for such a keyboard to survive fluid spillages, with the fluid gathering in that clearance rather than on the key mechanism. That luxury has disappeared with the more modern membrane keyboards. How do I know this, I hear you ask? Well, I had just installed the keyboard when I stupidly spilled a glass of fizzy juice all over it. It immediately stopped working properly, with some keys not registering presses and some giving the wrong output. Thankfully I still had my old keyboard. In an effort to rescue the situation I drained the keyboard of about a quarter of a pint of unwelcome fluid and opened it up. That required a special star shaped screwdriver head, but it wasn't too fiddly. It took a long time to clean and dry the keyboard, but after a few hours of drying the keyboard worked good as new. I relate this tale here because it may be useful to others. You CAN rescue this keyboard from disaster by gently separating the two internal membranes and mopping and drying. However, that's not why this keyboard and mouse combo gets only one star. To begin with the mouse was quite useable, and a nice shape for my hand, but over time (about a month of heavy daily use) the mouse wheel started giving me problems. The wheel has a soft, rubbery feel, and to begin with that was fine. But it didn't take long for the wheel to pick up the oil or grease from my finger. I don't think I'm an especially greasy or oily person (?), but after a while the wheel just stopped turning when applying light pressure. It became a case of having to press on the wheel, but not hard enough to trigger a click. That was incredibly frustrating, leading to many misses and unintentional actions. Eventually the wheel became effectively unusable, and I have moved on to another manufacturer.

Product Review: Keyboard and Mouse Set I recently purchased a keyboard and mouse set, and I was impressed with the quick delivery. The items arrived promptly, which was a positive start to the experience. However, I noticed that the box looked open and gave the impression of being a returned item. This raised some concerns about the condition and quality of the products inside. Setup and Initial Impressions Upon setting up the keyboard and mouse, I encountered an issue with the keyboard—it initially failed to work. After some troubleshooting, I discovered that changing the battery resolved the problem. Once the new battery was in place, the keyboard functioned as expected. Performance Both the keyboard and mouse perform adequately for everyday tasks. The keys on the keyboard are responsive and comfortable to type on, while the mouse operates smoothly and accurately. Despite the initial setup hiccup, the overall performance is satisfactory. Issues and Concerns One notable issue is that the Caps Lock light on the keyboard does not work, inconvenient, as there is no visual indicator to show when the Caps Lock is active. While this doesn’t affect the keyboard's core functionality, it is a noticeable flaw that detracts from the user experience. Pros and Cons Pros: Quick delivery Responsive and comfortable keyboard Smooth and accurate mouse performance Cons: Packaging appeared to be previously opened Initial battery issue with the keyboard Caps Lock light not functioning Conclusion Overall, the keyboard and mouse set performs well once set up, despite some initial challenges. The quick delivery was a plus, but the opened packaging and the non-functional Caps Lock light are concerns that should be addressed by the seller. If you're looking for a reliable keyboard and mouse for basic tasks and can overlook these minor issues, this set is a reasonable choice. However, be prepared for potential setup troubleshooting and the lack of a Caps Lock indicator light.

Started off really great, connected to my dell laptop and HP monitor pretty well. Wasn’t very loud. Looked great. Lightweight, although I don’t take mine anywhere. However now the keyboard just stops working intermittently. It will stop working for a couple days a time and then suddenly start working. I thought it was the battery but even after replacing those, it makes no difference. This happens like every 3 months or so. Pretty frustrating.

Good

Kein Stern wert. Unbrauchbare amerikanische Tastatur.

The lag from the mouse is very bad, even after cleaning it and replacing the battery; this is with the receiver very close. The keyboard also goes to sleep even when in use.

ممتازة

Il s'agit d'un clavier QWERTY mais ce n'est pas mentionné dans la description... Impossible de le renvoyer ou de se faire rembourser....
