Well-made device with non-standard keyboard layout (see picture below) intended to make intensive typing more comfortable (this is very subjective and you have to try it yourself).
Pros: light and short move of keys that comfortable to press; big control keys; firmly stands on table not moving while you type; very long cable allows you to stand your computer wherever you want.
Cons: in spite of the fact that many keys are large enough some are made too small, especially "Enter" (which very annoying) and "F1-F12"; also nonstandard layout of Home/End/Insert/etc keys will make you often said something no polite about developers. Actually after some months you will hardly notice that layout is different.
After years of exploitation of this keyboard keys begun to fail. It means device need cleaning. Disassemble it, wash it, dry it, assemble back. And all again will be work fine for a long time.
