I've purchased two of these MK545 combos in the past 7 years, and I love them. First: this appears to be an Amazon-exclusive version of the MK540 that Logitech sells directly. The main upgrade compared to the MK540 is the texture on the wrist rest, and that makes a BIG difference in a good way: it's comfortable, non-slip (which is good for long days of officin'), and doesn't collect fingerprints/smudges.
Other Pros:
- The keys are quiet but with still enough travel that typing a long, admonishing e-mail is a breeze.
- Media keys worked generally very well with most audio applications, including browser-based.
- The mouse is comfortable, quiet, responds well on most surfaces and has a nice weight to it; good for long fights with Excel or MSPaint.
- One dongle for both devices saves on ports, an ever-more-precious commodity in modern computer designs.
Cons:
- I occasionally had stutters/input lag with the keyboard itself, but I suspect that was the result of poor placement or interference from the desk setup and where the dongle is (which reads both keyboard and mouse). It was never persistent, and my wife (to whom I've since relinquished this in favour of gaming-friendly peripherals) has never complained about it.
Overall I love this set, and would happily return to it if I wasn't playing computer games (where I like a bit more responsiveness). Perfect for office life, especially if you share an office.
