Reviews for Moshi ClearGuard Keyboard Protector for Aluminum MacBook and MacBook Pro

It's a little squishy when you type, but it is something you can easily get used to. I would recommend it. You can hardly see it, so that is a bonus.

I love this thing. It's so thin and practically invisible. I recommend it to anyone who wants to protect macbook's keyboard.

looks cool n best of all it protects

I bought this because I was sick of the finger prints on the keys that would transfer to the screen when I would close the laptop. It does make the keys feel a little funny but why would you spend $1200 and not protect the keys that if you spill water or something on them would short out the computer.

It's very thin and it's easy to type with it in place. It definitely has a different feel when you type, but after a couple of uses, I barely even notice it. I ordered this with my brand new mac book. It was put on before I did anything else. I say this because it became cloudy within 1-2 weeks, and oddly enough when I tried to clean it, most of the cloudiness was on the surface that contacted the keys, not from my hands. It frequently clouds up, which is annoying, especially since it is difficult to get clean. Overall, considering how unobtrusive it is, it's worth the annoyance for the added protection.

pros: covers the keys tightly and is barely noticeable when typing. easy to clean. when backlit, the keys are very bright. adds a softer feel.

cons: sometimes the cover lifts or slips up, especially on the right side when hitting the delete key with the pinky. this is hardly a deal-breaker but annoying. also, the macbook pro doesn't look nearly as shiny and stylish with this piece of film on top. the keyboard's sharp glossy face is immediately lost behind the keyboard protector.

i guess that's the price you pay for greater spill and dirt resistance.

This is a great idea, hence why i bought it...But first off ill present a few problems I have witnessed and refuse to use any longer...

1. When computer is getting hot, the plastic almost increases the amount sweat coming from your hands.

2. Makes typing response go down slightly ( meaning i would take it off if i had to right a review such as this one)

3. It leaves a great amount of grease from the protector on your screen after you close your laptop! Its not permanent- but still very annoying...

All in all, Recommended...BUT I barely use it, due to point #3...Me being into graphics i need my screen tip-top all the time. Coming from someone who would cry to see my computer get damaged...

I used the marware silicone protector for 3 months before I purchased the clearguard and I have to say that I am so happy I crossed over. The silicone was stiff, cumbersome, sticky, and clumsy compared to the clearguard. I think that keyboard lights shine brighter through the moshi model also. The clearguard is better hands down!

i just picked this product up. and since the keys are already black i decided to go with the clear cover. it fits perfectly on the keyboard and doesn't move around. also when you type, the sound the click makes sounds kind of good. and the best thing about it that you don't have to worry about getting dust or anything else stuck in your keys.

The day I received my keyboard cover, it saves my computer's life. For no apparent reason, I did what I never do, and that was to have a open glass of water near my MacBook Pro. I accidentally knocked the glass over on my desk, and my computer was covered with water. Had the keyboard protector not been there, my computer surely would have been damaged.

This is $30 definitely worth spending; it saved my $1500 purchase.
