Goldtouch KOV-GTM-BTD Bluetooth Comfort Mouse w Dongle Right-Handed

Saves my hand, wrist and arm. I've used one for years and got this one as a gift for my husband. He loves it, too. He's been having lots of shoulder, arm and wrist problems in his mousing hand/arm. Getting much better and quite quickly because of the Goldtouch. It looks good and is easy to install. Read more

The ergonomic characteristics of this mouse are fairly good. It does not fit my hand perfectly, but it is much better than any other mouse that I have used and I do not experience discomfort from prolonged use that I have experienced with other mice. The biggest problem that I have with this mouse is that the bluetooth connection goes to sleep after the mouse has been idle for a few minutes and when I then try to use the mouse again I have to wait somewhere from ten seconds to as long as a minute for the mouse to reestablish communication with the computer. Waiting to be able to use the mouse has gotten fairly annoying. This is a problem that I have not had with other bluetooth mice. Read more

One of our customers has arthritis in her wrist and she felt that the Goldtouch mouse would be a good solution. The product arrived in a plain white box with a small instruction sheet, two AAA batteries and a USB Bluetooth transmitter. The transmitter went in trouble free and the Bluetooth configuration icon appeared in the computer's system tray (Windows XP Professional). The mouse appeared to be "alive" as the bottom LED showed activity but I could not get the transmitter to pair with the mouse. I tried everything and yet the Windows Bluetooth configuration panel would not recognize the mouse. I called the phone number listed on the instructions. The person answering the phone said that support is provided only via email. I explained that I was an IT consultant at a customer site and it was not practical for me to play email volleyball with return visits to try this and try that. I said that if no one would speak to me the product had to go back as DOA (which I assume it was anyway). The employee said phone support simply was not an option. And so, it's packed up and I await return instructions from the Amazon Merchant that sold this p.o.s. Another example of Chinese junk with abysmal vendor support. Priceless. Read more

I bought the rather expensive Bluetooth version of Goldtouch Ergonomic Mouse from the Human Solution and was super pumped while I waited for it to arrive. I have been combing the interwebs looking for a wireless mouse (so I can change up my arm position and reduce shoulder strain), with a good angle and palm support (to reduce my wrist swelling), and with low click force buttons (to help with the muscle spasm in my forearm). The Goldtouch mouse sounded perfect! Alas, it was not. This is one HUGE mouse you guys. Admittedly I have small hands. My hands are 6 1/2 inches long from my wrist to my middle fingertip and are 3 inches wide (excluding my thumb). Goldtouch made much of how the version 2 mouse fit a variety of hand sizes, but let me tell you, it does not. The angle and the click force are okay. I like being able to click with my entire finger. It's the scroll wheel that's the problem. I can't reach it. My fingertips end a quarter to a half inch away from it, which means I have to pick up my hand and contort my fingers to scroll. Misery! I might as well keep using my Apple magic trackpad since I no longer have any hand support or proper angling. To make matters worse, even if my hand were large enough for this mouse, I still wouldn't like the scroll wheel. It's tiny and not very precise, which means it requires fine motor skills. RSI ruined my fine motor skills ages ago. My search for a comfortable mouse continues! cross-posted as best as I can remember it to the Human Solution website Read more

Got one of these mice from work last week. It worked great for about 2 hours. After that it died completely. I've tried everything to get it working again but to no avail. The laser at the bottom is flickering constantly and when I move my hand across it is recognizing a surface. It is even connected as a Bluetooth device to my computer still. However, it does not move the cursor at all. So I returned the first one to IT and got a new one. The new one worked perfectly for the rest of the week. Today is the 5th day of using it and it just broke in the same fashion as the first mouse. This company has some serious quality issues. The mouse feels great when it is working but to have 2 of these devices break within 7 days is not luck, but very poor quality. Read more

Mouse is very ergonomic, I have averge hands and works great for me. What doesn't work is the crappy bluetooth that comes with it. I use it with 2 computers, one with intergrated bluetooth and another with the dongle that comes with it. Everytime you put the computer to sleep or hibernate, the dongle sleeps too. Then you have to go in settings and add the mouse again each time, Sometime it doesn't add it and an error comes. Then you got to restart the computer or not use the mouse. Very frustating. I end up using the reliable logitech instead which is not so ergonimic but works all the time. Read more

When it worked, it was fine. Problem was every time I changed the batteries I had to perform more moves than LeBron to get it to connect again. Finally nothing worked to reconnect the Bluetooth--most inconveniently a week beyond the one year warranty. Oh yeah, with regard to support? Good luck with that. They say they will get back to you in a day. I think they are in Pluto's timezone. Read more
