Logitech K120 keyboard

Hello,

Does anyone here own this keyboard http://www.geniusnet.com/wSite/ct?xI...771&ctNode=134
What’s the verdict? Any issues or complaints worth noting?

I need something budget-friendly for occasional gaming—Ghosting protection is a must—plus some backlight since I type in the dark a lot. This looks like a solid option.

I can't find a single photo of the US layout online. Are the standard keys illuminated, and is the backspace key just as small as it is on the US version?

Maybe take a second to actually read through some reviews—since this keyboard is pretty much brand new, you aren't going to find many people jumping in here to share their personal takes: https://www.google.com/search?q=Logitech+K120

As for the Backspace key—it's identical. Localization doesn't change that.

First off, thanks for the reply.
I’ve gone through the reviews, and most people seem to think it’s decent for the price point. I just wanted to see if anyone here actually has hands-on experience with it.

That backspace issue is a bummer. In my opinion, that's a significant handicap.

If anyone happens to know whether the US keyboard layout legends are backlit, I'd appreciate the info.

Picked it up today. Honestly, considering it costs less than $67, this keyboard is a steal!
It’s got backlit keys for all our characters, and I’m glad the backspace is a full-sized key rather than some cramped version. 🙂
Ghosting works perfectly fine, so I have zero complaints at this stage.

If you're on the fence, just get it. You won't find anything better at this price point.
Just keep in mind I'm not much of a gamer, so my standards might be a bit lower than a pro's...

Best,

I recently picked up a Logitech K120, and honestly, I’m running into a massive headache with this thing because it just keeps cutting out on me for no apparent reason. It’ll suddenly go completely dead and stop responding entirely. Even when I turn off the blue backlight, the keyboard will randomly flash bright for a split second before dying again, and the only way I can get it working is by physically unplugging the USB and plugging it back in, which I've had to do over and over. I actually tried to troubleshoot this by going into my settings and disabling the option for the PC to turn off USB devices to save power, but that didn't do a damn thing. I'm pretty sure it isn't an issue with my computer, though, because I actually ended up swapping out both my motherboard and my power supply—not even because of the keyboard, just because I was doing a major system upgrade—and yet the exact same problem persists. At this point, I’m convinced I just caught a lemon, like a defective unit that’s either shorting out or drawing way too much current. To make matters worse, I accidentally tossed the original packaging, so when I went back to the store with my receipt, they told me they couldn't exchange it for a new one. It's been so unpredictable; sometimes it works perfectly for three days straight, and then on the fourth day, it just quits, or sometimes it dies after only an hour or two of use. I’ve also noticed it tends to freak out whenever I restart my PC, so I’ve just gone back to using my old Microsoft keyboard that I bought way back in 2011, which still runs flawlessly. If anyone else has dealt with this specific nightmare with this model or knows a fix that might actually work, please let me know.
