Prestige - Evoluent VM4 Vertical Right-Handed Mouse - Black

Im a designer and I use the vertical mouse since 2010, it is a huge difference with other mouse, I can program buttons, and my wrist is relax and flows with the movement.

Way too costly for general use, if you have a wrist issue and your doctor or physical therapist recommend it, this vertical mouse is nice. It definitely takes some getting used to, and is still (after a month of solid use) is hard to 'drive' for detailed work (like drawings), but great for general mouse use. It would be nice if a major mouse vendor (hint Logitech!) would offer one in their line. Yet another wireless adapter taking up a USB port and more drivers on the computer make for more troubleshooting RF and software collisions.

I work in an office and the mouse is like my hand almost. I had a standard flat type mouse and I was really getting cramps and spams in my wrist. I wanted to try and see how the ergonomic mouse will differ, and oh, differ it did! My wrist pain is %90 gone, I'm not saying it'll be gone fully, because you're still overworking your hand and wrist by even holding a mouse for hours but it is at least at a much more anatomically natural stance. On top, it has a lot of buttons where you can program for cut, copy, paste, refresh, calculator etc... And there's even another software, which is by a developer, that can give much deeper button configuration option. Only one down side is that the it's not super responsive to small movements, it might need more hand travel than you'd expect when working in a super detailed area, but for regular use, it's more than capable to satisfact majority of the people. Overall, it'll prevent me from getting carpal tunnel and I don't need to stretch my wrist every hour.

I am a video editor and I have to be in the computer for long hours, I had been using a regular mouse for a long time when suddenly I started feeling pain in my hand one day, I didn't know what to do and I couldn't stop working because the deadline of my projects where approaching, so I looked up for ergonomic mouses and according to the reviews I thought this was the most appropiate for me, I use a Retina Mac book pro and it was easy to install, I just Plug it in and it ran smoothly. It is a little bulky but as long as it keeps my hand safe from pain, I am ok with it. Great buy so far!

Here's the deal. I've been working with computers for the past 20 years, and due to repetitive motion and bad ergonomics...I have bouts of metacarpal tunnel syndrome. Lately it started acting up again, so I took some reward certs and got a wireless Evoluent mouse. I had one years ago, while in California, but it was wired and it would get sweaty. this one is new & improved, glad to say. works like a charm, doesn't strain my hand or wrist. It's easily programmable, don't get sweaty, AND...on the bottom the base curves out just enough for your little finger to rest on. Despite the size and shape, I find that it isn't problematic moving the Evoluent mouse. (I still use a mouse pad but that's another story.) My one gripe is the price. When I went to make a purchase it was $106. Lucky me, I had $50 in Rewards certificates so it wasn't so bad. i understand the economics of it---a useful product for a smaller segment of the market--but eliminating the wired version and just selling the wireless would allow them to sell at a lower price. Just saying!

I only use vertical mice because of wrist issues, and this one is pretty good. I also needed wired because of Bluetooth interference in my office. This mouse does have a little bit of a learning curve, but after a while it's seamless. Programmable buttons are nice, but you'll probably remove functionality from the middle button- it's too easy to accidentally click

A vertical mouse takes a while to get used to; sometimes I have the tendency to grasp it at the top with my palm down like a regular mouse, but I'm willing to work with it. It's a big plus that the mouse buttons can be customized after you download and install the software. I wish Best Buy sold the wireless version of this small mouse. They sell the large Evoluent wireless mouse but not the small wireless version. I can't speak to the longevity of this product yet.
