Evoluent Vertical Mouse 4 Right Hand (VM4R) - Ergonomic USB Wired Mouse for Laptop and PC with Jestik Microfiber Cloth (Regular Size) Black

I specifically searched for a different style of mouse to combat tendonitis developing in my index finger due to excessive daily mouse clicking on my job. I bought this and the Zero Tension mouse, this one has been much easier on my pain and less aggravating of the symptoms. And it feels much more comfortable so I took this one to work and brought the other back home. I even started using it with my left hand until I can give my right more rest and time to heal with rest, ice and anti-inflammatories. It is very comfortable to the hand and fingers. And although I agree w/another rater, sometimes it doesn't seem to click as it should (i found out there is a blind spot/area where it just doesn't catch -it all about finger position) nevertheless, for now and my needs, this is the best mouse ever! It did take some desk/keyboard respositioning as well and a little getting used to. but way less of than what I went through with the zero tension which is kind of awkward on the wrist if you don't have long fingers. I like them both and maybe if my finger wasn't so inflammed, the Zero Tension would be better, but for now and for my situation this one is the best!

Great mouse helps to prevent and protect from carpal tunnel and I love love love it!

This mouse provided instant relief of wrist pain. I use a computer at work and I confess to being a computer junkie at home. The vertical hand position coupled with the low force clickable buttons makes this mouse a joy to use. The cursor flies across the screen so you don't need to move the mouse around much to reach different areas. This is important if you use large screens. I can't say enough good things about this mouse. Hope it lasts!

This is the second Evoluent mouse I got and it works great. It is ergonomic, easy to use and very comfortable. I highly recommend it.

Sent it back the next day, Not for my work.

This mouse has been great. I recently hurt my wrist from over working and have to say this mouse really was a great find. One of my most favorite features was the fact it ha a break function in the software that will tell me when I should get off my computer and stretch. I would recomended this product to any one seeking a ergo life stile your health should come first.

This is my second one of these, I tried to find another that didn't have the quality issue with the breaking cable but after trying a few, I am resigned to buying a $100 mouse every 4 years or so because it is so darn comfortable. Note to Evoluent: Fix the darn wire, make it less fragile! Hope it isn't a planned obsolescence decision..

I could not use a regular mouse anymore because of the pain in my wrist. Once I started using the Evoluent I noticed an immediate cessation of pain in my wrist. I've used the mouse for a couple of months now and its made a huge difference. I don't have to wear a brace on my wrist and its easy to use. I thought it might be difficult to adapt to the new shape and motion of the mouse but its actually quite intuitive and now I think its feels much more natural than the flat mouse.

There's definitely an adjustment period, but if you're looking for an *ergonomic* solution to wrist issues, this thing's worth consideration. I find it really intuitive for left/right movements, but forward/back (up/down) feel less coordinated to me, I think just because I don't have muscle memory with my wrist in this position yet. Trying to digitally sign my name for example is MUCH easier with a traditional mouse, but at worst the vertical mouse is 'a bit less coordinated' and at best it's a massive panacea for RSI sufferers, so I'll take it. :) The mouse itself is nicely built, though I'd have liked it to be heavier I think...it feels a bit more plastic-y than I thought it would, but still reliable.

Works well, stands up to abuse. I have purchased many of these for work. They have lasted for years with minimal problems.

has really helped with my wrist/arm pain.
