Between work, social media and just keeping up with the latest news, you probably spend a lot of time in front of your computer — and your hands and wrists are feeling it! Standard keyboards, especially the ones on a laptop, aren't very comfortable, are they? That's why you should invest in a more orthopedically friendly model. Microsoft's Surface Ergonomic Keyboard is one of our favorites, and it'll be yours too when you pick one up at Amazon for $91 — it's 30% off!

If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free two-day shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.)

We know that $91 can be a bit of a hard sell when it comes to keyboards; there are so many cheaper options out there. But look, the more natural angle of the Surface's design will be a big relief to your aching hands, and you'll feel an even bigger relief to your wallet when you no longer have to worry about medical bills to get them fixed!

Still not sold? Why not ask some five-star reviewers on Amazon, who find it "Affordable, sleek, ergonomic and amazing connectivity. No missed keystrokes, no lag; it's as though you're plugged in with a wired keyboard. Highly recommend. Spending eight-plus hours per day on a keyboard, I ended up with repetitive motion syndrome. This keyboard forces your hands into a natural position and has alleviated all pain."

Another thrilled typist says, "I love this keyboard! It is sleek and stylish and is very nice to the touch. The keys don’t make a lot of noise and the palm rest is soft and supportive. It connects easily via Bluetooth. I haven’t had any issues with connectivity."

And this shopper got it for their wife: "It was a bit getting used to but now she is not hurting in her wrists anymore after 10-hour work days. We've had no issue with connectivity after the initial connection process. [...] So far, this is an excellent choice for productivity."

Coders spend a lot more time typing than the rest of us, and even they love this keyboard: "I have broad shoulders and big hands. My elbows are further apart than airline seats. I write code for a living, sometimes 12 or more hours at the keyboard at a time. Using a regular keyboard was leading to pain and would eventually have ended my career. This completely solved the problem. This is the latest generation of Microsoft's outstanding ergo keyboards and it's the best. Wide keys, soft but sure keypress, quiet, and reliable. Battery life is excellent as well."

Sounds like a real lifesaver!
