Unlike most cheap keyboards, especially the notorious 'Free After Rebate' models, this keyboard feels very solid and well-made. The board itself is very well-made and doesn't flex, a notorious problem with certain laptop keyboards, and typing on it gives you an excellent sense of tactile feedback since they have a slight "click" characteristic of laptop keyboards, they have the full-length key travel of desktop keyboards, and they have a generally very firm feeling with any of the mushiness characteristic of cheap, low-quality keyboards. Additionally, the keyboard is surpisingly heavy considering its compact size, and when placed on a table does not slide around at all. Logitech is known for making peripherals with excellent quality, and this one seems to follow that reputation very well.
