KINESISVIP3 Tenting Accessory for Freestyle2 Ergonomic Keyboard (AC820)

Sturdy and well designed. Anyone who has the Freestyle 2 should get this to enhance the ergonomics and create an awesomely stable setup for typing. Highly recommend. all the stars.

If you have the keyboard this is a must. It makes it considerably more comfortable to use. I did not add the cushions though as they would just get dirty with time.

I type all day, every day. I got repetitive stress injury in my wrists from bad typing posture on a godawful generic keyboard.Then I got a Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard (the 2012-3 model), which ultimately traded one injury for another: my wrist RSI went away, but in exchange I got RSI in my thumb from the VERY stiff spacebar of the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard. (Over the course of 2 years, I probably pressed that spacebar a million times. Once per word....)Microsoft's keyboard is a lot cheaper, until I add the cost of the doctor's appointment plus a thumb brace I had to wear for a while. (Could've been worse if I'd have kept using it...stiff keys on an ergonomic keyboard is a BIZARRE design decision, Microsoft. I hope their latest model is softer.)Anyway, the Freestyle's keys are much softer, my thumb RSI went away. That alone was worth the price.It's much better for my wrists than Microsoft's was too, because it's so adjustable. It's a lot smarter (and cheaper) to be able to adjust your keyboard's width, height, etc, than adjusting the dimensions of the furniture around you! (The height of your office chair elbow rests, the spacing of your elbow rests, the height of your desk....)I tend to use it widely spread apart, so it's the same width as my shoulders, and my arms are straight. But I also change it from time to time, just based on whatever's comfortable in the moment, and I suspect that's ergonomically helpful, being able to adjust positions all the time. This keyboard never locks you in any one position.Been using it over a year now, no problems at all. Just plug it in and it works.

Wrists pads are comfier than they look out the box. tenting is easy to install and change angles. not 5 stars because it’s a bit overpriced and should come with the keyboard

I am glad I opted for the somewhat pricey add-on tenting for my split keyboard. My split keyboard was purchased to help me keep my shoulders relaxed with wider spacing than the conventional single keyboard gives a person. I bought 20" cord version instead of the 9" version. However, without the tenting add-ons, the keyboard is going to be flat just like any other keyboard, and our arms are not naturally laid flat on a surface when we sit. When we relax the arms on a tabletop or desk, we naturally roll our wrists slightly toward the outer wrist bone. That slight movement outward relaxes muscles and tendons that we otherwise stiffen in order to keep the hands flattened. With the tenting add-ons, the keyboard has that slight tilt I need (on the lower setting) that allows my whole arm, all the way to the shoulder and neck muscles, to rest. No tension to build up in my shoulders and neck from sitting in an unnatural position.Ergonomics, body mechanics, is very important. The slightest changes toward a natural position for all-day sitting at a desk can really make a big difference.Side note: My arms, shoulders, wrists, neck are benefiting from the few things I've done to alter my desk and chair positioning. I bought a footrest and a lumbar support in addition to the keyboard and tenting pieces. All of those things have made a world of difference for me.

The quality of the plastic moulding is excellent. The precision of the fitment is the best I've seen - think LEGO. There are three tilt positions and personal preference will determine which is best for you. I had it on the highest (to relieve excessive pronation) for a while but lately I've changed desks and seating arrangements so am trying the 'flatter' setting . You cannot lock the lifters into position so if you bump the keyboard hard enough the legs will fold into a lower position - doesn't every keyboard do that? If you tend to adjust your keyboard position a lot you have to remember to lift the whole keyboard and put it down you can't just shove it across the table in its highest position or the legs will fold. That's because the rubber feet on those legs are quite tacky which ensures the keyboard stays exactly where it is while typing. The wrist wrests work well and support the weight of my manly wrists perfectly. They come with a stick on gel strip so that overall the wrist is in a good neutral position. if you're looking for a lot of elevation from the wrist wrest then you will need to tilt the whole keyboard, eg using an articulated pull out keyboard tray for example.

These were challenging to install, but installation was successful. They are great to adjust the height of the keyboard. Perfect wrist rest. Great addition to make the keyboard more user friendly and flexible.

First off the wrist rests are huge and I didn't have space for this really on my decent sized desk. They're like 5 or 6 inches long.The tenting was weird. It doesn't really lock into the keyboard despite having a latch with a release so it always felt a bit odd.The stand with the wrist pads also have exposed hooks so if you want to experiment without the rests you have these hooks poking out an inch or so near the space bar.None of the angles were particularly more comfortable and to adjust it feels like you might break it because it snaps in with plastic grasps.The way they talk about their keyboards it was hard to tell if this was or some version of tents would be included with the keyboard (which they should for how much they display it in the product description). These things just felt like cheap plastic with some rubber foot pads.I did not keep them.
