Evoluent VerticalMouse 2 (black)

 

Although it may be ergonomically correct, this mouse's upright form takes some getting used to. The left side of the mouse has a concave area where your thumb falls, but on the other side of the mouse, the rest of your hand must fight gravity to stay...

Ergonomic design reduces forearm twisting; five-button design for programmable commands.

Doesn't register when computer wakes up from sleep mode; faulty scrollwheel; design causes hand to drag.

Although the VerticalMouse 2 eliminates forearm twist--one of many causes of repetitive stress injuries--its awkward feel coupled with design and operational flaws keep us from recommending this mouse.

My Chiropractor loves it!

Evoluent VerticalMouse 2 (black)

 

My work is very mouse-intensive, and I was developing more and more tightness in my wrist and forearm. I went to several repetitive stress injury (RSI) clinics and redesigned my workspace, but the tension and pain would always return. I tried a roller...

Stopped working after a year but was replaced without questions
