Evoluent Mouse 3

Customer Reviews

  About three or four years ago I got RSI (which was so bad my doctor falsely diagnosed me with arthritis) from using a normal mouse all day at work. My employer bought me one of these. Within four weeks the pain and swelling had disappeared completely (yes, it really took this long - I'd previously given up my normal mouse for a week without any improvement). I think the problem for me was the almost permanent vertical 'hovering' of my fingers over the mouse buttons, causing tension in the tendons that run over my knuckles - that is where I got the swelling. I've been fine for years since I got this 'sideways' (horizontal buttons) Evoluent mouse at work. Now I'm thinking about one for home, and I see they're quite expensive. So in summary: it really does work brilliantly, but expensive - if your employer is paying, you need this! Otherwise consider using your computer less!

  I had a painful wrist and the evoluent mouse has 'cured' that. I now get pain in my fore-finger and little finger. I would like the smaller mouse, but it only has 2 buttons & scroll. If it had a double-click button I would buy that as the sideway rip is really helpful.

  A number of years ago I developed very painful muscularskeletal pains in my right hand as a result of extensive use of a normal 2 button mouse. After trials of a range of ergo mice I was introduced to the Evoluent Vertical mouse (first version). Literally within a few days of use the pain that had been present in my wrist and forearm disappeared. I have since upgraded to the wireless Evoluent 3 and it is fantastic. I do have large hands so this particular model works well for me. I find my wrist / forearm remain in a very neutral and comfortable position all the time and I never have any problems. I found that I had to use the software to inactivate the bottom button on right hand side as if I picked the mouse up for any reason the grip activated the assigned function. As I only really need 2 buttons this was no loss to me. I can only imagine that the Evoluent 4 has further improved on this. For business users I'd suggest you speak to your supplier of these and see if you can have one for a week to try out. I am not sure if they do these in smaller sizes but if not, some users with very small hands may find it a little bulky. I also found the scroll button in the Evoluent 3 version a little stiff at times but again it may be better on this new version? Overall I would definitely recommend it!
