I got two, one for me, one for my son. Had them for over 4 months now, and still working well. Son is Graphic Artist and on computer for hours and hours daily. I can't complain about ours. I kept my old keyboard just in c ase, nothing was wrong with it except my eyes ... Both our keyboards are working very well. The Ink is wearing off of my "E" character, because I use E so much playing games. We are both happy with these EZEYES. Sorry about yours...going kaput. I do keep the old keyboard around, nothing was wrong with it, but these are really nice.
