Doesn't wear out!Jul 04, 2006
By Robert E. Williams
I bought one of these back around late '94 or early '95, and I'm still using it now in mid-'06 (11 to 12 years - wow!). I thought this model went off the market years ago, but I guess not.

After several years of use, the pad accumulated quite a bit crud. However, the pad really traps the crud, such that if you look at the bottom of my mouse, the feet have absolutely no dirt around them, whereas mice feet tend to scrape up stuff on most pads and certainly on a desk. Since my mouse stays clean and the crud doesn't affect the optical tracking, I've just not had enough incentive to clean it and so I haven't.

Aside from the dirt, the pad itself shows very little wear. This really surprises me given how heavy a user I am. Also, the gel pad shows virtually no wear. There are only two slight negatives that I can think of:

1) When I purchased the pad, it had a sort of oily film on the underside of the gel pad, like a lubricant. Not sure what it was for--perhaps a conditioning agent for the rubber--but it's still there after all these years. You can actually turn the gel pad over and draw in the oil. However, I've never tried to clean it, and in fact have always kept the pad in its place except for pulling it on rare occasion to see if the oil is still there. (Not sure where I expect it to go, but heh...) In use, you would never know it's there and you never come into contact with it, so even if you leave it, as I did, there's no danger of it getting on your cloths or anything.

2) The lycra finish on the gel pad is nice in that it doesn't make your wrist sweaty as a lot of gel pads can. And as I said above, it's very durable. However, you can very easily leave cosmetic scratches in it by, for example, fairly gently scratching a fingernail across the surface. These marks are not permanent, though. As far as I can tell, they're very similar to vacuum marks on carpet, and they can be rubbed out or they will simply disappear with a few hours' use. But if you handle the pad, you may look at it afterward to find it all "scratched" up, which is a bit disconcerting.

In one of the many (living quarters) moves I've made with it, the front part got cracked, but other than a crack being visible, it's not affected usability one iota.

I'd kinda like to replace it just for the sake of getting something new, but I'm having a hard time justifying it. I do think the pad requires a bit more effort to move the mouse compared to good modern pads, and that may become my incentive, but for the moment, at least, I'm sticking to it.

BTW, I'm a professional computer user who spends 10-20 hours per day (sometimes more) working on my computer, and with multiple big monitors, I use the mouse an awful lot. Thus, this pad has gotten *very* heavy use over the years. I've also had very few problems with my rather picky wrist, so it seems to a do a good job ergonomically, as well. (In case you're wondering, I use a Kinesis Contour ergonomic keyboard to handle the other half of general input. It's simply wonderful - I highly recommend it to any heavy computer user.)

Ol' TrustyFeb 02, 2006
By Kevin L. Drum
I've been using one of these little guys for years. I think someone gave it to me as a present. I recently set up a nice new office, and it definitely sticks out as having been put through the ringer. Still works great, just not as clean as it once was, although I did vinyl dye the white tray silver a couple years back. I guess it's time for a new one, though. Awesome product!

YMMVSep 29, 2006
By vga
Pros (for me):

- gel pad is stiff and offers good wrist support

- entire base is made of solid plastic

- small overall footprint. Fits well on small desks.

- mouse pad is detachable, not glued or anything.

Cons:

- gel pad is a bit too high even for large mice like MS Laser 6K

- mouse pad is a bit small. OK only for high resolution mice (1000+ dpi)

- friction between wrist and gel pad is a bit high. More than on a 3M pad.

No wrist painJul 31, 2007
By Darren Majesty
I spent the last two years using this mousepad and recently tried the 3M precision mousing surface. The surface was fine, but the mock-leather (i bought the fancy one) wrist wrest felt like a brick. After 48 hours i returned it and went back to this. It's not the fanciest mousepad on the market, and its not the prettiest (note: available in different colors, just google or go to their site) but this thing works.

Not as it used to beSep 09, 2011
By Elaine Grandoit
I had bought this product some years ago and it has been terrific. The gel wrist rest was and still is very comfortable. I decided to get a new one as it had gotten quite dirty. This new wrist rest is the same model as the one I have. However, the cushioning on the new one virtually doesn't exist. It felt very hard and uncomfortable. The one I've had for 9 years and have used every day for that period of time has at least twice the amount of cushioning in the rest as the new model does. So very disappointed as this rest looks very nice and fits perfectly on my keyboard tray.
