This is the second Evoluent mouse I`ve purchased. Used one for a couple months at work and then bought the second one for home. After a few years of pain in my right wrist finally this mouse does the job. It is pretty good for everyday use and keeps the arm in a relaxed position - much less stress and strain than other mice I`ve tried - Intellimouse 3.0, Logitech MX-1100.After the first day of using it carefully I noticed improvements - pain had minimized and wrist was still OK in the afternoon.After one week I noticed that pain still can reoccur if I get tired and start moving the mouse using wrist instead of whole hand it was designed.

Having suffered with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) for over 12 years in both hands, I finally resorted to having open release surgery following the recommendation of my consultant. Following surgery, I was advised by my occupational therapist that I needed to review my ergonomics when using a mouse and keyboard. As a heavy user of a PC at work (I am not an IT professional, but use a PC a great deal in my job), it was recommended that I consider a new input device instead of the traditional horizontal mouse. Initially, it was suggested that I consider using a vertical mouse, such as the Evoluent. However, I decided to investigate alternatives before making a final decision.

Having changed jobs and been given a laptop I found my old ergonomic mouse would not plug into the laptop! I quickly started to to get pain back again in my hand/arm and neck and was desperate for a solution. I read up on the subject and decide to buy this mouse as one of 3 to try (an expensive way to do things but as I couldn't find any to try in the shops and I was in pain, I wanted a quick solution). For info I use a MAC at home and a windows PC at work.This is a very good looking mouse with a fantastic tactile non-slip rubberised mouse surface (which is a pleasure to hold and seems to aid grip). It requires you to hold your hand almost at right angles to the desk, like shaking hands.

This mouse has been an absolute Godsend ! I started suffering from RSI and tried this. I must say it too about a week to get used to it. I am 3D styling so I sit in front of a computer for about 38 hours per day and I use all three butttons. On a normal mouse I use the index finger for the left mouse button and the middle finger for middle mouse button (or scrolly) and right button but with this I had to get used to using index for left, middle for middle and the ring and pinky for the right. (you can install the drivers so that the buttons are configured like a normal mouse but Ive found that this method utlises my fingers better so Ive stuck with it)

I am 56, and work in full-time administrative role requiring me to use a computer all day. I had been using a normal mouse for years, with no problems. However, I started getting stiffness in the middle joints in my fingers a few months ago. I went to the doctor, had a blood test to rule our rheumatoid arthritis (which it did) and the only conclusion was that I had RSI. I was advised by my colleague to book an appointment with the health person in HR at work. I did this, and my IT department provided me with an Evoluent mouse. To say I hated it at first is an understatement. I was thinking "No way will I ever get used to this!" However, somebody else at work who had been provided with the same mouse said that I needed to persevere,

I have severe nerve damage due to carpal tunnel because I used a computer mouse for over 25 yrs non stop until my left hand could take it no more. I was left handed but forced to use my right hand. I will never use another normal mouse again.I am a avid mmorpg gamer and worried this would not work with the games such as rift, neverwinter, everquest 2 online games. I tell you it works perfectly for me.I had no learning curve, all I did was download the drivers to use more of the buttons. The small fits my hand perfectly I wear a size 7 USA size glove. The thumb rest is so comfortable,buttons easily reached, along with the scroll wheel.

Like many other RSI sufferers, I spent a considerable amount of time looking into alternatives to the standard mouse. Although there are a lot of opinions out there, and different solutions that have worked for different people, I couldn't find a definitive answer, and in the end opted to give the Evoluent product a go.My first impressions were mixed, and for the first couple of weeks I was very concerned that I had made an expensive mistake. However, you have to remember that if you already suffer with RSI, then it is not going to disappear overnight! Also, you need to be very disciplined and ensure you hold this mouse as intended; it is all too easy to place your hand over it like a standard

I've had a v3 for quite a few years now for at work and decided that I wanted one for home too so I decided to buy a second.Now the first one I have to say is working perfectly despite the fact that the little slider pads underneath have completely worn off due to wear (I use it over 8 hours a day). But it works fine and I can't live without it!The second one I bought 11 months ago but it went weird on me about 4 months later, Amazon kindly replaced it with a new one which has been working fine up until now. Seven months after receiving my replacement, the mouse is starting to show exactly the same symptoms which are: mouse randomly freezes for anything from half a second to 5 seconds or forgets

Of the several brands and designs of vertical mice, the Evoluent is clearly the best - two others had been tried and found lacking in some way. It is smooth on the desktop when most of the others are not and evreything is where it should be without being overloaded with pointless extras. It is wired when several others of this style are wireless and also rather expensive when compared to a standard design mouse of equivalent quality.However, there is a single word of caution; the large (sometimes also described as 'Standard' is quite large and actually too large for my reputedly large hands (but with short fingers). Reaching and operating the mouse buttons is easy but the scroll wheel is uncomfortably slightly out of reach and a requires an undesirable change of grip.

I began looking into ergonomic mice after developing severe pains in my hand and wrist. I spend many hours a day at the desk as a CAD user and I had to find a way to ease the discomfort. After looking at a number of reviews I decided to give this one a try.At first a struggled to get used to the different orientation and button layout and in the first couple of days I wondered if I had wasted the company's money. It's a very expensive device compared to a normal mouse (and I had to convince my boss this was a worthwhile purchase).Well, by the end of the week I had got the hang of this new mouse. Now I would not be without it.

My last mouse broke and I was looking at something while I wait for a CST L-trac (not in stock at the moment).I've tried with the Logitech MX Vertical, but I don't like the fact that the base of the mouse is slightly raised. Plus, buttons (especially the middle one) are quite hard to press, and you can especially feel that if your hand is placed to the side. Finally, that mouse feels a bit small for my hands, and I feel like I can't hold it with my whole hand, but with my fingertips only (it hurts if I tried to hold all of it)Then I thought of returning the MX Vertical and trying the Evoluent V4... absolutely brilliant! The hand rests naturally on the mouse, being able to hold all of it.

I've been using the Evoluent Vertical Mouse for a little over a month now and I can honestly say I am very happy with my purchase. I didn't find the learning curve too steep and I was using the mouse with ease after a few days.The major benefit I received is an approximate 85-95% reduction in wrist, arm and shoulder pain since using this mouse.The only negatives I have found are as follows:1. There is no driver support for Windows 7 x64 (although every other Windows version is covered) but this is not really a problem as the mouse still works perfectly, you just can't re-program the buttons to do anything different.2.

Ideal for the smaller hands of ladies and teens for whom the standard 'Large' version may be too big. Although male with moderately large hands, with the 'Large' version its controls were almost uncorfortably out of reach. With this version, they are well-placed.Operation is extremely smooth on the desktop and the controls initially functioned very well and smoothly. However, after a couple of days, the user - with somewhat arthritic fingers and other related issues - was finding it increasingly difficult to control; sometimes things worked, but not always. Whether a problem with the mouse or personally is uncertain but, although less comfortable, working with another standard mouse is perfectly normal and feasible.When ordered,

I thought nothing could beat the old Evoluent Mouse 3, but now I have the 4 - and it's awesome. Everything from the slightly tweaked design to the purely visual back lit logo all scream quality. If you've ever suffered from hand, wrist or arm pain after mouse use, try this baby out.Even if you own one of the other upright mice (mouses??) out there - including other Evoluent models - This one delivers on all those little things you knew could improve the others: Better pinky support so now no part of the hand touches the mouse-mat, extra thumb button (as a gamer this was the clincher!), improved contact points between mouse and surface, and better, on the fly access to the mouse DPI settings is a god-send for Photoshopping.

I was suggested this mouse several years ago when hurt my shoulder and my work desk setup had to be adjusted to support this. I had issues extending my shoulder to the right so I was encouraged to work with a wireless keyboard with a floating number pad, and the Evoluent mouse. It worked very well for many years and I was very happy with it.Since the COVID lock down, I have been working from home and purchased the small version of this mouse. It took me a few days to get re-acquainted with the feel and usage but once back into it - it has been really comfortable.My glove size is 7.5 so I border small/normal size according to the guidance. I prefer the smaller one as it fits my calm comfortably and I am a bit more nimble with it.
