Advantages: more natural feel
Disadvantages: takes getting used to
This keyboard seems to fix problems you never even knew existed. For example the height of the keyboard is slightly raised in the middle. This makes it feel much more natural when typing as you have different length fingers it makes sense for the keyboard to be shaped to account for this so the hand falls more naturally on the the keys. It may not seem like much of a problem but you appreciate it when you have it.
I use this keyboard at home but at work I have a normal flat keyboard, and so I really notice the difference between the two. At first it felt weird typing on this keyboard but its to be expected, not being used to the different shape of the design. However after a while The opposite became true and using my flat keyboard at work became the one that felt weird and actually was typing slower at work as the keys felt out of place to what I had got used to at home.
I did realise that I use different buttons for the keys on this keyboard than I used to, for example I used to always use my right hand for 'B' but on the keyboard it is on the left side. You just have to get used to it and once you do if you're like me you'll become a faster typer for it
The base at the front allows you the rest your wrists on them so it is not so as uncomfortable as having to rest them on a wooden desk. The material is quite soft, definitely softer than a desk, the only annoying thing about it is that if I have a lot of paper around me it does take up space, while it may not be too much, but it is space that when you are busy you would really appreciate having. So it's really a judgement call on whether you can sacrifice a bit of space for the extra comfort
Over this is a great keyboard that made writing this review that little bit easier
