Side by Side Comparison of: Dell vs Logitech

I've had it since the 7th of January (bought it New Years Eve), and I love it. I'm thinking about putting a new GPU in it and more RAM (I'd need to get new version of windows to). My old keyboard gave out that day, and the mouse and keyboard that come with it are extraordinarily good. Its wi-fi USB adapter that comes with it works well. I use an Ethernet for my main computer, so I just used the adapter for this to lessen the trouble. It doesn't work to well at far ranges, but it works great nearby or just a floor up or down. Don't buy this as a gaming desktop, unless you have a good GPU and optional extra ram for it. That said, it is a great performance computer. At this time, you can upgrade it to Windows 10 for free if you have internet. Again, it is a good computer for productivity. The only thing that I would do if I had extra money, is buy a little bit more RAM. It handles tasks well, but can get pretty slow with many things running. I know this is a CPU Core situation, but the RAM can also help immensely. Very good value.

High Performance, Low Price! It's just what I needed. Last year, I bought the same computer for my wife.She totally loves it. So it was time for mine to be replaced, and here I am again..Big, and powerful, it came out of the well-packaged carton, plugged it in and it did its' thing,automatically activating Windows 7, and then updating. After connecting up my printer,and loading my backed up programs, this computer has not stumbled once. Thumbs up!No disappointments here!

This company is awesome! I would definitely recommend this company to anybody. I purchased this computer and it came exactly as advertised. I mean all the specs were the as they stated on amazon - 3 GB Ram, Dual Core 3.4Ghz processor (each core is 3.4Ghz). - I did have a problem with the computer when it arrived though. Within the first 24 hours of use, I started getting the dreaded blue screen of death (also known as a memory dump) and it was very frequent. After speaking with My Refurbished PC, they helped me figure out that 1 stick of ram was bad once it was removed, all the problems were gone. They even sent me out 2 new sticks of ram to make up for me so now my computer is even faster!

The first PC I ever had was built by a local computer place and for the past six years or more, it has been an XP that I could never update and gradually only got worse, no matter how I tried to make it work better. Finally, I had it taken back [been completely disabled with a crippling disease for over ten years], only to find the "mother-board" needed exchanging and the cost to fix and upgrade it to a Windows 7 would be almost $300!I had already looked for a desktop on Amazon and surprisingly found this offer by JSM Computers. The price for this well refurbished Dell Optiplex 745 with its many consistent ratings of 4 out of 5 stars, settled my choice without question, and I quickly ordered one, praying it was truly "Heaven-sent" for me!It came, two weeks ahead of the projected delivery date, which already had me anticipating results with JSM that would be exceptional. As I carefully unpacked it, I looked for scratches or dents on the case and it looked surprisingly new! Since this is my first "Dell", I had to look online to find the start button [my low lite room didn't help]. But once I understood the Dell better and changed its security to no longer prevent me from accessing my isp email, etc., it has been GREAT!! I really like this computer. It runs so nice, and quiet. Its quickness is a huge relief! It even blends in color-wise with my printer and Windows 7 laptop. Thank you, so much, JSM Computers and Amazon. I couldn't be more satisfied with a desktop and a computer, really. Hopefully, it will give me "years of service". It was definitely worth the price to me!!! Having a PC like this is a life-line to especially one, who means more than the world to me.If I may, lately I've ordered different things from Amazon and their offers and service are very accommodating.

My Purchase from Computerworld Ent.and Amazon was the best decision I ever could have made. After reading Negative review after Negative review on Refurbished Computers I was at a stand still. Then I found Computerworld Ent. After much research I made the purchase. A Windows 7 Home Premium Installed by a Microsoft Authorized Refurbish-er, Dell 745 Optiplex Tower Computer, Featuring Intel's Powerful 3.4GHz Pentium D Dual Core Processor, 160GB Ultra Fast 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive, 3GB DDR2 High Performance Memory, >>> What a machine for the Money.. Computer arrived in a timely matter and met all expectations and then some..I am Very pleased with how this computer is working so far, and the way it was all set up.. Plug in and Off you go...Just Great..Recovery disc and all was included.. The price was an added bonus.. I'm glad I did my research and read a billion reviews before finding Computerworld Ent.. I never found one bad review about them.. I would definitely Recommend Amazon.com Keep selling Computerworld Ent Merchandise AND I recommend Computerworld Ent Refurbished Computers to anyone who may be needing one real soon.. Windows 7 is awesome.. I will be buying from Computerworld Ent again and Amazon as always..

It's really aggravating that all the new computers come with Windows 8 and the horrible UEIF BIOS. I won't go into more details but just say that I'm so glad that I can still buy a PC with the standard BIOS and that can run Win7. They did a great job of refurbishing the computer and I was extremely pleased that they didn't load it up with crapware. Furthermore, it came with Microsoft Essentials instead of the Norton or McAfee "virusware", and Open Office. A very good deal for the price and I'm very satisfied.

I have kids that dont like to keep thier hands off of things that are not meant for them to play with. (I.E. dads wireless keyboard) I went with a cheaper model so when they inevitably stomp on it, drop it, or spill something on it I wont be too heartbroken. Setup was easy... Plug in the usb dongle, remove the little tags from the surprise included batteries, turn them on and your set!! (On windows 10 at least). Very next day your son deciceds to drive his 1970s model Tonka dumptruck over the keyboard a few times, THEN proceeds to DROP said Tonka on top when he realizes hes been caught. Bet your envisioning keys everywhere, cracked plastic and death to my fancy new wireless keyboard huh? Nope!! 1 little scratch of the paint on the Win key! Not a stuck or broken key everything works flawlessly. Now dont go buying this thinking its indestructable, Can pretty much assure you it has a weakness, they all do, my kids just havent found it yet! Surprising little tidbit I read on the box and not in the description; the keyboard batteries last up to 36 months and the mouse goes for 18. If I get 6 months outta the (not advertised) included batteries Ill be a happy camper. My old set was lucky to get a month!! Anyhow everything with this set has surpassed my expectations by leaps and bounds. Its light, comfortable, and works fantastically from my couch (12 or so feet from the pc). Im not a power user or super gamer so did not need all the programable buttons and whatnot some of the more costly models include. But I am a cordcutter and my PC is mostly used for tv and movies. The volume keys are awesome for that. And i do like the other function keys. So for the price and features this is a deal and a half to me. Should this one get destroyed by my children I will definately reorder the same.

Great device combination, cheap price. I bought this pair because the keyboard in my laptop didn't operate reliably, and I needed that function to work for me without problems. This pair appealed to me for two reasons: first, it was wireless, so as long as I had a spare USB port for its dongle, which I did, I was in business. Second, it was so inexpensive that I assessed that I could buy it on speculation, and not feel badly about tossing it if it didn't do the job for me. As it happened, it has worked so well that I purchased another set, so that I could leave one at home and one on my campus, and avoid packing it when I went from home to campus. Oh, and, the feel of the keys is quite satisfying, in contrast to the laptop's own, and the mouse beats its touchpad utterly. What's not to like?

For the price, this is an amazing deal. I am by no means a keyboard fanatic, I do not care about the sound or feedback, but as far as I can tell this is a very solid keyboard and mouse. It's not very nice, it being entirely made out of plastic, but what can you expect from a $20 Bluetooth Mouse and Keyboard? The set up process was amazing, I put in the bluetooth dongle, flipped a switch on the mouse and keyboard and I instantly started using it, no set up required.At worst, the keyboard has hanged every now and then. Nothing appears on screen and then woosh, all of my sentances instantly type themselves out. That's only happened a few times out of the many hours I've used the set. Also, you won't have to change the batteries for a whole year pretty much, which is a relief.

while its not the loudest keyboard i have ever had it you can hear when the keys fly back to the ready position. The wireless function i was able to get to work to about 35 feet away in a conference room with out a problem. for the price point I don't think this combo can be beet. I do wish there were a way to tell the mouse is on besides moving it around with the computer on. while it is nice not having the red light underneath at least when it was visible light you knew your mouse was working and on:) I will try to respond back when the battery dies in the mouse and keyboard respectively to give a good understanding of product life. This review was typed out on the keyboard!

It seems as though once one person gets a wireless keyboard and mouse then everyone wants one! I have even had people steal each others at work so I went ahead and purchased a bunch knowing they go quickly. This is a basic wireless combo with a keyboard and mouse. It's not the fancy version but gets the job done. You basically take the usb piece and plug it into your computer and BAM!! it works with no wires. In my experience Logitech has been a good brand for these types of items. I haven't had many issues with them overall. Sometimes you will get it where it loses connection or someone else picks up your wireless and you'll see a phantom pointer moving on your screen. I haven't had these issues with these new logitech mouse and keyboard. I am very satisfied and so are my coworkers who use them! I have also purchased the upgraded version and it works well too! I would definitely recommend this product and brand.

I got this great package yesterday, and it replaced my old wired keyboard and mouse on my old HP computer. It works great. I had problems with the built in mouse pad on the Chromebook 15, and my RN wife was afraid that I might end up with carpal tunnel syndrome and to suggested I try this cordless set with my Acer Chromebook. So, I tried it on my new Acer Chromebook 15, and it worked very well.It works great, and may be faster with the mouse on the Chrome book versus the HP.I had been considering buying the Acer Chrome Desk Top. If I can use a system to transfer the Image to my HP VGA 22 monitor, I will use my Chromebook 15 for what I now use my HP for on my office desk.The only mild complaint, is I can't find a sleep key for my HP monitor. So, I just push the off button.

This unit is working as expected so far. Does have a problem with restarting but I believe it is because AVG Anti-virus is restarting to get rid of problems.AVG free is what we use. We also added CC Clean which is free and speeded up the CPU and cleans up the register.The unit is a Windows 7 and is as fast as a 7 can get. Office works fine. This unit is being used.daily in a office

Advertised as an Optiplex 745 Pentium D 3.4 MHz. What was delivered was an Optiplex 755 Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.83 MHz. This is actually an upgrade over the advertised system, so no complaints there. Came with 3 Gig of memory as advertised, but one of the modules failed after about two days. Purchased 2 GB of memory for about $10 from a Google supplier and upgraded to 4 Gig onboard memory. Machine has run just fine since then. Considering that for ~$75 + shipping, I got a pretty decent machine that does what I want, I have no complaints. [Note that I am pretty familiar with computer hardware / software issues, so debugging was not difficult. In the hands of someone who was not used to this type of machine behavior, it would have been useless hardware.]

I've waited to review this because I wanted to really use it before commenting. My company's IT guy suggested I find a computer with Windows 7 rather that Windows 8 and after some searching, I decided a refurbished model was the way to go. I only use this computer for emails, Facebook and personal documents. This purchase replaced a computer that was about 10 years old and running XP. It arrived securely bubble wrapped and packed, no concern about damage. It set up easily. I called the customer service number to ask a question and they returned my call within an hour and didn't make me feel like an idiot. I am pleased with this purchase.

I was hesitant to buy a pre owned computer. I paid $200 and am very pleased, as it came with windows 7 and basically what you would buy at a store except at $700. The case obviously looked a little old but it was pre owned. The instructions were very easy to follow to setup and the features of the cpu are nice. The specs are very good, fast web browsing and the best part about this computer is that it didn't come pre loaded with junk. Stores provide computers with anti spam trials, almost malware. This computer came with the bare minimum basics, so I got to pick whatever products I wanted. I like that it came with 4 USB ports in the back and another 2 in the front. The DVD drive is good too it can burn cd's. Overall, I am so happy I got this pre owned computer on a budget. You can't even tell it was pre owned. I would recommend getting this if you are like me and refuse to get windows 8 and still love desktops.

Needed a computer for our Headquarters and without spending a fortune on a BIG BANG computer we bought this one and WOW were we surprised how good it was for the monies. Functions perfectly and is running now doing basic word processing and accounting software - just what we wanted.

I was very happy when I received my items in only 3 business days. Unfortunately, the ad is a little mis-leading. It's not a 3.4GHz processor, it's a core duo at 1.8GHz. If I wasn't running online gaming applications, the computer would have been fantastic, but with the lacking video card and incorrect processor even minecraft isn't a possibility. But I repeat, fantastic, inexpensive buy if you're just doing work. Comes with essentially nothing installed except the basic necessities, which i LOVE. I'm so tired of computers in the market coming with software you never use but have to pay for. Company was easy to talk to and tried to educate me. Would deal with again, despite the confusion.

I like almost everything. It worked right out of the box. Wonderful! Its shortcomings are, the # sign is NOT the "upper case" 3. What is typed is the English currency pound sign. Was this keyboard made for England??? Another caveat is the @ sign. The @ sign is NOT the "upper case" 2. And, then it stands to reason, " (quote) is not on the keyboard next to the ENTER key.1. I figured out the @ and " were interchangeable. So when I am typing an e-mail address I use the " key, and when using quotes, I use the upper case 2.2. The # sign was ALL TOGETHER different. I was going to return the keyboard because I use lots and lots of # signs. I ACCIDENTLlY came accross the #. It was the back slash!!!!3. So where is the back slash???? Can someone help?? I don't want to return because I know this "happened" on three of these brand new boards. So it definitely is the board. Is there a way to change, is there a way to program and F key for the back slash (if I can find out where it is...)4. I will be calling the company tomorrow, wish me luck.

Works well with Ubuntu 17.04 once I installed the Solaar package. Otherwise only the mouse was paired with the unifying receiver. Solarr lets you pair multiple devices. It's available on github (posting a link here is not allowed). Keys are OK for an inexpensive non-mechanical keyboard. I would not do a lot of writing or programming but for casual use it is OK. Mouse is actually pretty good;: it even mostly works on glass (1/4", bottom surface frosted) but works better on paper or fabric. For the price, it's hard to beat.

I used to have a huge wireless keyboard and mouse (also by logitech). Had it for a few years, but it started to get crudded up. I tried to clean it myself, but then saw that this was available for cheap so I decided to get it. I like that it's light and fairly quiet. Seems pretty resistant to dust and dirt and crumbs so far. Not crazy about the small size of the mouse, though. This is like a kid's mouse. I need something that fits an adult hand (and I dont even have that big of a hand!).Not the greatest K&M combo in the world, but good for home use and the price is right.

This mouse uses a 2.4ghz signal. The same as a home wifi network. In our apartment building, there are a lot of competing signals and the mouse keeps being cut off. We have it hooked to my dad's Chromebox that he has hooked to the tv and uses from across the living room, so it's 10-15 feet away. It may work better if we'd use it for a computer right on the desk. The keyboard works wonderfully, though. I just bought a bluetooth mouse to replace this one and we aren't having any problems. I don't think there is anything wrong with the mouse, other than that it has the weakest signal.

This is the best keyboard ever since it is so simple and cheap. Don't care for the mouse. I like my Logitech MX Master. The Logitech MX Master can work on either Bluetooth or a Logitech Unifying receiver. The downside with this keyboard is that it has a proprietary USB dongle that only works with this keyboard. It seems like with the Bluetooth technology we have today that my MacBook Pro's Bluetooth antenna should be able to handle a simple keyboard. I like bluetooth only devices because my laptop only has 2 USB ports and when I bring it to work I don't want to have to plug a million things into it. I have my external monitor and my USB dongle for this keyboard. The bluetooth only keyboards that I have seen available are more designed for travel use and have weird layouts of the keys. The layout on this keyboard is perfect for my needs and is easy to type on, so I can't move on to anything else yet.

At $19 with batteries included this is a great value. The keyboard feels OK. It has an ON/OFF switch, but does not have an indicator light to show that it is ON. A light might help me remember to turn it off to save battery. It worked reliably from 30 feet away.The M185 mouse is OK. It's significantly lighter than my old Logitech M305 mouse, and has smooth plastic sides where the M305 has nice grippy sides. This M185 mouse has an On/Off switch, but has no indicator light on top, and the motion tracker on the bottom seems to use light outside my range of vision.It hasn't been an issue for me, but it seems like it might have been nicer if the keyboard and the mouse used the same size batteries. The Keyboard uses two AAA, the mouse uses one AA battery.

I bought one of these towers a few months ago as a media center for a friend. I had read some of the reviews of this machine on amazon, saying that the machine said it was a "faulty copy of windows 7". With that knowledge, I took out my shared copy of windows 7 (completely leagal by the way), and tried to install a fresh copy on win7 (mainly to get rid of the bloat ware on the PC). To my surprise, I found out that the disk drive was faulty, and would not install an operating system. I have had this problem with pc's before, so I had an alternative disk drive that I can use. Another thing customers should be aware of is the windows 7 disk it came with, was only a recovery disk. not a clean install.Over all, it is not a terrible unit. I mean, what do you want for a refurbished computer for 80 bucks. That is why I rated it 3 rather then 2, because I know what I am doing, and the problems I experienced are elementary. For a new comer, I understand how this is an issue, but you have to remember, this is a refurbished computer. Not all things on it are going to be perfect.

bought 2 of these for relative, worked very well till the hard drive went out in one of them, but they sent me a new one, I just had to find someone to put it in, other one still going strong, this was within the 1 year warranty period,

As others have stated here, the specs are not accurate for what is listed. They listed a 3.0 Ghz pentium D dual core with an 80 gig hard drive and 4 gigs of ram, and I got a 2.0 Ghz core 2 duo with a 130 gig hard drive with 4 gigs of ram. It's not bad, it seems pretty quick and in good overall shape, I just wish the listing was accurate. However for the price, seems ok.

Hard drive died and company replaced. However, this unit was originally set up in a business mufti- linked computer system and I ended up making many changes to facilitate unit to work as a stand alone. Had many programs that were supposed to work with the installed windows 7 but were marginal. Same programs on a stand alone PC had no problems. Finally got everything to work but it took quite some time. Will not ever purchase another refurbished processor. The company was great in supporting the initial problems.

WHEN I RECIEVED THE FIRST TOWER IT WAS THE WRONG ONE AND WHEN I CALLED REASON WAS LACK OF HELP.I THEN WAITED FOR THE SECOND TOWER TO FIND OUT IT WAS ALSO VERY SCRATCHED AND HAD NO SOUND. CALLED COMPANY AND ON CALL TECH GOT SOUND REPAIRED AND GAVE ME 4 MONTH WARRANTY ON TOWER FOR ALL THE SCRATCHES.THE SCRATCHES DIDNT BOTHER ME AS MUCH AS IT DID MY HUSBAND I WANTED IT TO WORK WELL.FINALLY IT DOES WORK TO MY EXPECTATIONS.

Mine from Craving Savings came with Windows 7 Professional 32-bit installed. No discs. So I attempted to make my own Windows Recovery discs, and discovered the optical drive would read and write to CD, but DVD was read-only. Contacted seller who is mailing (not UPS) me a replacement optical drive. No diskette drive (asked by another customer). Dell Optiplex 755 not 745. 700 GB hard drive not 160 GB. CPU Intel Core 2 4300 @ 1.80 GHz not 3.4 GHz. Dell keyboard and wired mouse included.

As expected, based on the price, the keyboard and mouse are both lightweight and cheap. However, I like the feel of the keyboard. It's keys are more "old school", which I definitely prefer over the lower profile types. The mouse is pretty poor, though. The plastic edges of the lighter color band wrapping around the top of the mouse can be felt, so it doesn't feel smooth in the hand and will certainly pick up hand grime. The roller indents are not quite solid enough. The sensor is too sensitive, so that when I pick the mouse up to reposition it the screen pointer moves more than my old Logitech mouse so I have to pick it up higher before putting it back down. Worse, the sensor seems to be slightly misaligned compared to other Logitech mouses I've owned, so that it wants to move at a slight angle when I move it straight up. Again, I've had several other Logitech mouses and never had a problem. I purchased two of these MK270 units and the problems are the same on both. Lastly, the two that I received did NOT come with the unifying receiver. I've decided not to send both back because of this (although I AM sending one back because the keyboard itself was defective). Because I like the keyboard so much, I'm going to keep it and use it alongside an old Logitech mouse and deal with two dongles.

Reliable and well shaped. Would have graded it higher, but the keys are somewhat stiff with too high a travel--typing is work, compared to the Microsoft keyboard, for example. But the price is right, and having the separate input devices increased the useability of my notebook over a full workday enormously from an ergonomic viewpoint, especially in tandem with a standing desk. If you can live with the harder keys. this is an excellent buy for notebook users who have to work long hours, and a much cheaper alternative to a separate monitor--just elevate the computer to ideal eye height, and leave the keyboard and mouse on the desk.

While the combined keyboard and mouse offered here at Amazon is a great deal (especially when I picked it up as a part of a PrimeDay Special), the keyboard itself is excellent while the mouse is a disappointment. The keyboard has a large, spacious layout with slightly textured keys. I absolutely love it. The feedback is perfect too. While I don't use the additional "shortcut" buttons on the very top of the keyboard, the on/off switch above the number pad is convenient and saves battery life. Other keyboards I've used in the past included a switch on the bottom, if at all.Again, the mouse is a disappointment however. It is both too small and ergonomically awkward to use for my slightly large, male hands. Scrolling with the center wheel stutters up and down documents and pages when browsing online instead of the smooth, natural scrolling of my former mouse. In all, it works to point-and-click around a screen but is more annoying than its worth. If your hands are tiny, this may work for you. Otherwise, purchase the keyboard separately and look elsewhere for a mouse.

I was satisfied with the build quality of both pieces of this set (as expected given experience using Logitech products over the years); I received the non-Unifying-receiver version and experienced what seemed to be interference (I work in an office with numerous wireless devices operating on various frequencies). Could potentially also have been a power issue as it sometimes seemed one or both units would power down or enter a sleep mode; fresh batteries did not change this nor could I discover any setting that would affect it. I reluctantly returned this. I suspect the Unifying version would work for me as I subsequently began using a Logitech mouse with Unifying receiver and have experienced no issues.

I really wanted to like this, but I frequently have the same problems some others have reported with this keyboard. It really lags sometimes.In other words, I type in a few characters (doesn't matter which application, same behavior in Word, Firefox, Notepad, etc) and then wait several seconds for the letters to show up on the screen.The mouse works great, even when the keyboard isn't doing so well.The fact that the mouse keeps working while the keyboard lags, combined with the observation that the keyboard sometimes gets a lot better after I turn it off/on, leads me to believe that this is most likely not a wireless conflict with my 2.4 Ghz wireless USB interface. I think it's just a problem keyboard.Update: I used a USB extension to put the USB connector closer to the keyboard and have had no problems since. Updating to 3 stars.

I love this mouse and keyboard combo. The keys are soft-touch and low-profile, so my wrists don't hurt after hours of use. My only complaint is that sometimes the mouse's scroll-wheel just.. doesn't work. It rolls, but the computer doesn't think it's doing anything. This has happened while browsing the web, in Office applications, and most notably in video games. Sometimes it starts working again on its own, and sometimes I have to restart the software or reboot the computer. Very intermittent but weird. I've never had this issue with Logitech wireless mice, so not sure if mine is just a dud. I still love this combo though, the issue isn't serious enough to warrant a return.Update at 8 months: The mouse's scroll-wheel continued to randomly stop working, and then the mouse started failing entirely. I replaced the batteries so that's not the issue.. it just stopped working. Turning it off and on again fixed the issue a couple of times, but now it doesn't work at all. I have another logitech wireless mouse (stand alone) that has been working for far longer, so I don't know if this is just an issue with the combo mouse or if I just got a dud.

Just so you know- the windows 7 installed isn't genuine according to microsoft

Computer did not work.

computer i ordered stated that it would have 3.4 processor'sit had 2.4 other then that it runs ok ...but was not what was advertized in the ade

Large - and very heavy - received in working condition - shows alot of wear and tear on case - you get what you pay for.

If you just need a basic computer that does stuff like word processing and light internet usage, this is probably fine. Otherwise, spend another $100 or $200 bucks and get something better. The OS is slow and has begun to give me errors about a non-verified version of Windows 7 being installed. It's also impossible to add more RAM to the unit I bought, so I can't really speed it up at all on my own. I thought this would be a good machine to get me by until I could get something better, but it's been nothing but a slow, steady decline since I bought it, and I'm not even playing games or anything.

This review is 8 months after origninal purchase. My intent was to buy a used computer with windows 7 since I had heard alot of negative feedback about windows 8. And I just use my computer for basic use.. ie the internet, email, etc. So far this particular computer has failed to boot up two times. And periodacally it has trouble uploading web pages and emails. And in general the performance has slowed a good bit. My last desktop computer lasted 13 years with no problems. I certainly did not expect to have problems 8 months after one has been refurbished. Maybe all so called "microsoft certified refurbishers" are not as good as they claim.

As a previous reviewer noted, there are two versions of the mk 270. This was listed as being a unifying receiever model, but I received a nano receiver that is not a unifying receiver. Since I don't have other logitech products I'm trying to sync, I don't care too much, but this is not how the listing advertising this product.That being said, the product seems to work pretty well -- the keyboard is decent for a $20 keyboard, the mouse is a little small but works, set up was painless, etc. Worked well with my cranky old desktop upgraded to W10 last year.

The mouse works fine, the keyboard is iffy. Some keys seem to work all the time, others are pretty spotty, and the direction arrow keys simply quit for no apparent reason whatsoever. Until they come back on for no apparent reason whatsoever. I've used Logitech for ...it seems like decades... and have never had a problem until now. (So of course I threw away the box... because I'm a dork.) So ... it's mine now until I buy another... soon...and then it's off to my growing pile of electronic recycling. Bah, humbug.

It was hard to finalize a rating for this product for a number of reasons, because for some people it might be worth 5 stars, but I'll briefly explain why it's only worth 2 to me.First, I will say that the mouse and keyboard work well and feel sturdy enough, especially for the price. My main two issues though can be summed up by the fact that the product listing is misleading and in fact incorrect.Issue 1 - The mouse is better suited for travel and is definitely not full size. This was never mentioned in the listing and might steer people elsewhere for this type of purchase, especially when buyers are specifically looking for full sized 9 key keyboards as a pairing.Issue 2 - The main reason I settled on this combo unit is because it was represented as containing a Logitech Unifying Receiver, which it clearly does not. This is a deal breaker for me and will cause me to return this product.

My wife purchased the Logitech Wireless Combo Mk520 With Keyboard and Mouse for her home office, and loves it. I needed a keyboard/mouse combo for work, so I purchased the MK270, a cheaper version. Well, it is definitely cheap. The keyboard has frozen mid-typing, the backspace, delete, and arrow keys have a tendency to stop working as well. I changed the batteries and even relocated the PC tower so that the USB transmitter is in line-of-sight with the keyboard - still having issues. It's cheap, only $20, but I am considering returning it.

Updated Review (8/18/2014) - I cannot stand the delay from the keyboard to computer. I have officially snapped and will not be using or recommending this product due to the delay. I keep my keyboard off when I'm not using it (when the computer is off and I'm not at my desk) but when I don't type on it for a minute and go to type, I expect it to type, not delay 20 seconds and still not use all the letters I typed in. It might start working after 45 seconds of frustration and wearing patience.Original Post (8/4/2014) - 3 Stars: I absolutely hate the delay from the keyboard to the computer. Sometimes it's sporadic but can take up to 20 seconds before it catches up. I am considering going to a wired keyboard or trying a different one because of how frustrating this is. I've only been using the keyboard for about a week and a half.

I ordered it on 3/23 from Amazon and received a couple of days later. To my surprise, the box doesn't say "unifying receiver". Took the keyboard/mouse out - yes indeed the receiver only says "Nano Receiver", and it doesn't have the orange star unifying logo. I also installed Logitech Unifying software but this receiver is not recognized.UPC/Product ID all match. Appears Logitech changed the product. Amazon needs to change the product description.If you are looking for a unifying receiver to work with other logitech products, don't buy this.Update - Amazon sent me a replacement, and this time it comes with Unifying receiver. UPC and product ID printed on the boxes are identical, packagings are slightly different. One has "Unifying receiver" clearly printed on the box and feature list and the other one doesn't.http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B00BP5KOPA/ref=cm_cr_dp_cust_img_see_all_img0Keyboards and mice are also different. One set both have orange star unifying on the label and the other set don't. Product IDs are different too.

I purchased this knowing it would be a refurbished computer and I had only intended to use it to stream exercise videos. The only software I installed was to allow it to connect wirelessly to my home network. This computer worked for about 2 weeks and now crashes every time I try to start it. I get an error message that the copy of Windows is not genuine. It makes a lot of noise and has a lot of vibration. I had low expectations to begin with and was STILL disappointed.

Purchased this to play music and photos. Cd Rom Drive quit in 4 days. Software was labeled fraud my Microsoft and it did not work properly. Customer Service was only late at night. Customer Service wanted you to spend hours trouble shooting their machine for them. Customer service sent a replacement hard drive with "tested software". It did not work. Customer Service agreed to pay all shipping and for total refund.

Buy a new computer. All I had was trouble with this refurbished junk. A true waste of money.

We bought this and had it sent to a friend. The first one some how did not get delivered. The second would not boot up. The installed " windows 7 " operating system had to be re installed. It cost 80.00 to get it working as it should. Guess you get what you pay for on this one

Ever since I received it there's been something wrong. I had to send it back and get another comp. at my own cost (48.00) Then the second one was acting up so I took it into a comp. repair shop (another 50.00) Jubitrade is a bad company to sell junk like this.

I got this thing from Ezbuycafe what a piece of junk. It's going back. The 3.5 floppy door is brock out,The fan is hitting something inside. I get 3-4 pop-ups on top of one anotherIt id loaded with spy ware and melware. I have worked 2 days on this. I am sick of it. I am trying to do the work they should have done. My melware program found over 100 objects that don't belong there. I'm tured of trying to do there work. Yes they put on win 7 and that's all.

This is a cheap piece of junk. The keyboard feels cheap, but that was not the issue. At installation, the mouse didn't work. After installing new batteries and other troubleshooting, I tried a different USB port and it finally connected. Should have worked in any of the ports. Biggest issue for me is the right click to copy and paste doesn't work MOST of the time - very frustrating. Mouse feels cheap too. Logged in to Amazon to return and see that I missed the return window by a few days. After reading reviews today, I see that there a lot of complaints that are very recent, like mine. Makes me think we all got counterfeit products. Irritated that I cannot return and get my money back.

Simply disappointing: 11 months and 18 days of use and it simply stopped working.From good to dead and no; it is not the batteries.

Oh the irony... here I am, trying to write this review of this product, while using this product and the keyboard stalls (as usual) and my words come out as a jumbled mess. I really wanted to like this keyboard/mouse combo, given the glowing reviews left by other customers. I bought it and it worked well for about three months, and then totally stopped working. OK, so maybe I got a lemon. I contacted customer service and they sent me a new one, no problem. Well, it's been one month and the new one is only working intermittently. Bummer. The words I type in don't appear for 10 seconds sometimes. When I move the mouse, it jumps and jerks around the screen, and it's hard to select what I want to click on. So while the keyboard and mouse both look and feel nice, they really don't work very well.You know what they say -- you get what you pay for! Wish I had spent my money on something more reliable/higher quality.

Terrible. The mouse works fine, but the keyboard cuts out often. I'll be typing and suddenly, nothing's happening. Its not the computer as the mouse and applications continue to work. I use it daily and without fail, it stops working multiple times each day, sometimes for a few minutes at a time. It is incredibly frustrating, so much so that I dug my old wired keyboard out of the donate pile and am using that instead. Does not work consistently.

The mouse has NEVER worked. I have contacted them numerous times, they give pages of instructions as if I have not already unplug, tried in new USBs, changed to new batteries, worked a couple days to get the keyboard before getting it to work. Weeks later and they still won't ship me a new one. I've worked with computer since 1976 probably longer than they have been alive. SAVE YOUR MONEY!, DON'T BUY

I am extremely disappointed. This is the first Logitech product I've used that I have not been satisfied with. I own a Logitech webcam, wireless keyboard/trackpad, speakers, and prior to purchasing this set, I had a wired Logitech keyboard and another wireless Logitech mouse. I purchased this set as a Gold Box deal to replace those (the tabs on the wired keyboard had broken off over the years, and the wireless mouse's dongle no longer worked).Initially, this set worked great. However, about a month ago, the following occurred:The mouse, even with a brand new Duracell Quantum battery in it (chosen as the Sweethome's #1 disposable battery) will occasionally turn off. The only way to make it function again is either A. take the battery out of of, put it back in; B. turn the mouse off and on again; or C, unplug the dongle and plug it back it. This is very frustrating, as this can happen several times across the span of a few minutes. It is too late to try to return this product, but I'm going to look into a refund and purchase a different Logitech keyboard/mouse combo.To reiterate, Logitech makes wonderful, high quality products. I believe I either got a defect, or this product altogether is not up to par.
