Evoluent Inventor of The Vertical Mouse VMC Vertical Ergonomic Mouse Wireless USB Bluetooth Ergo Design for Right Hand

Amazing ergonomic mouse that truly reduces wrist and finger strain. People who have carpal tunnel syndrome should definitely try this brand mouse. Unlike other mouse devices, this is a "vertical mouse" that has been tested thoroughly, per the manufacturer, so that every finger position is in a deliberate position to move as little as possible, including a pinky rest so that the 5th finger doesn't drag or touch the mouse pad. It took several days, at least 2-3, for me to get comfortable using it, and it really is ergonomic in that your fingers and wrist hardly have to move to make the mouse travel on the screen. I never have any wrist pain after spending hours surfing the net, like I used to. With just one button you can switch from USB wireless to Bluetooth wireless. There's also dedicated control cut and paste buttons near the bottom. There are several versions of this vertical mouse. The more expensive models have programmable buttons, but this one, a base model, does not. At this point I don't see the need for them. The company did a very good job researching and working on the proper finger positions to make this one of the most ergonomic mouse devices on the market. I'm not going back to the older style.

I’ve been using the wired version of this mouse for years and it’s great. I do find that I tend to rest the pad of my hand on the mouse pad, whereas I think I’m supposed to keep it not touching. I think if the finger rests were a little bit taller, it would be easier to avoid this (I have pretty average size hands, for reference). This wireless version has slightly different button mappings, which I think might take some getting used to. We’ll see which I end up liking better. I find it a bit odd to have the copy and paste buttons be different “kinds” of buttons. I appreciate their commitment to zero driver and config software, but this won’t be the mouse for someone who wants to customize. One thing I do like better about this version is that unlike my wired version it doesn’t have a blindingly bright LED on the front. I wish it had some sort of light on the top though so it was easy to see if it was on, as I’m guessing that if you leave it on all the time the battery will run out quickly. Read more

After decades of using a regular mouse, this took some time to get accustomed to. While true that it's more in tune with the natural position of your hand at rest, you're going to have to learn to deal with the greater height of the mouse. Several times I have bumped it with my hand as I've moved my hand back toward the mouse, accidently hit the "back" button, and then had to correct that. It didn't want to sync with my bluetooth on my laptop, but I can't say that it's a mouse problem or a laptop problem. It operates just fine with the wireless USB connection so I don't have any concerns. Again, it's a fine item, but you just need to know up front that you will have to train your hand to get used to the position and movement. Recommended. Read more

The media could not be loaded. Love the way this was packed. Also it came with a battery? Looooove that. Hardly anything does now a days. This has a super smooth hand feel to it, and the button clicks are so quiet. I wasn’t sure about the height of it, but it’s comfortable with a wrist rest too. This is a great ergonomic mouse for anyone looking for one! Read more
