Thanks OP. I've been wanting to try a vertical mouse. This is a cheap way to try it out without spending much if it sucks.

Eh you're setting yourself up for a bad first experience with this plastic garbage. At least spend 5 more for deals on victsing or jelly comb vertical mice on here every so often for around 10 bucks

I had been looking for a ergonomic mouse for awhile and had this mouse and a bunch of other ergonomic mouses sitting in my cart. In fact I actually bought the Victsing deal (looks like a Aukey) from couple weeks ago for $9. I woulda gotten this though if it was this cheap couple weeks ago. This mouse was $18 for long time and then today dropped to $9 and it has a $3 off coupon. Hopefully someone can have a good experience with this mouse but at this price I feel you can't really lose if you want to try ergonomic.

I bought this mouse 4 years ago and am still using it today. This is my only vertical mouse I've used so I don't really have any comparisons to any other vertical mouse. I mainly use it for vfx work, about 10 hours a day minimum. It helped reduce some of my joint pain. I removed the bottom piece because it would get in my way but other than that I don't have any complaints.

I have tried many, many ergo mice to try to reduce my wrist pain and stave off surgery

You probably would not think that the extra few degrees of verticality for the Evoluent mice would make that much of a difference but they really do. In my experience the extra money for one of them is worth it.

BUT, what I've now found to be far and away the best for pain reduction is to get one of these in order to totally remove my wrist from the desk:

there are other's that may look similar that are cheaper, I've tried them and they're garbage. At this point I've bought three of those relacon's (they have both bluetooth and usb dongle) just in case they go out of production and the one i'm using breaks.

This actually lets me get through a full workday without wrist pain now.

I bought the wireless version of this last month after my Microsoft sculpt comfort stopped working. I was hoping to buy the old JTech round one but that was replaced with this design. This was a great alternative and I actually like this better. I use it for daily for 8+ hours.

This shape looks like a really bad design. Hand needs to be bent outward. Victsing and jelly combo ones are really good. Victsing has two different ones, buy the one that looks like a hand which is the same as the jelly combo's

EDIT: on a second look, the photo used a weird angle that made the button side looks straight up. Amazon has other photos that make more sense.
