3M Precise Mouse Pad with Gel Wrist Rest, Soothing 3M Gel Technology and Satin Smooth Cover for All Day Comfort, Optical Mouse Performance and Battery Saving Design (MW85B), Extended, Black

If you sit all day at your computer, this is the mouse pad to get. Not only is the wrist pad comfortable but after one year of use, it has not worn down in the middle like all the others. It's also the most precise for cursor placement and movement due to the texture and pattern of the pad surface. It's the perfect size and stays put with the backing material that doesn't discolor wood over time. And.... it looks modern, clean and kind of cool. The write pad also has a faux leather appearance which is classy and doesn't wear out compared to others that have the neoprene like material that gets filthy over time. Tip: If the mouse has any difficulty with accuracy, just clean the surface with window cleaner and a cloth and it's back to new.

My favorite mouse pad. I really like the 3M precision mouse pads. I use a laser mouse for word processing and I love how thin the 3M pads are and how well they work for laser mice. However, I never really liked that they needed to be "stuck" onto the surface. They peel off easily without leaving a sticky residue, but eventually, the stickiness goes away if you keep moving it around. I later switched to this one with the gel cushion and this is now my favorite mouse pad. A bit expensive, which makes buying a second one tough. But, worth it. I have 2 now and did not notice any warping issues that others noted. Perhaps looking closely at my pad now, I see that the center is somewhat sunken in. However, it's hardly noticeable, and the weight of your hand and the mouse when you actively use it means that the slightly raised edges don't matter.

Update— after months of use: I have tried numerous ways to flatten it out, but the corners still curve upwards. I would consider this an overall 3.5* product. It will last forever and is very comfortable but it won’t lay flat. Excellent surface for precision and speed, except the corners bend slightly upwards... I find the pad is amazingly accurate for all my work apps + RTS/RPG games and also easy to clean, because it has a smooth finish that can be wiped off with a damp cloth. I've even hosed it down in the sink when I spilled coffee on it, because it has no absorbent or cloth-like surfaces (despite this fact, it is very supportive and comfortable). Non-slip backing is top-notch. 5 stars for these chracteristics. 3* justification/why it's 4* overall-- For FPS gaming, if you use a medium or low mouse sensitivity, this pad probably isn't big enough for you (check dimensions) and also, the corners curl up. The curvature of the pad will affect play when sweeping motions are made, towards the edges, and may also be less responsive if you are perched there, especially, if you are like me and use HIGH mouse sensitivity. I would suggest a larger precision mousing surface and a separate wrist rest for all FPS players. I break out my old mousepad for playing shooters and it works fine.

At every company I’ve worked I have ordered this mouse pad for my office. It’s a must have and is very comfortable / ergonomic. Also I like that if you accidentally spill food or a drink it’s very easy to wipe off and clean.

4.5 stars. This product is nearly perfect. My mouse tracks great on it, it’s a great size, and the wrist rest has the perfect soft yet firm feel. My only minor complaint it that the sides don’t lay flat, and instead they curve upward slightly.I might get some double sided tape to hold them down, but it really doesn’t affect the functionality of the pad.

I had the older model of this pad and it curled up at the edges. Nothing would make it stay flat. This one seems flat, but still kind of thick and bulky. I want a mouse pad that works well, is light, won't move around, and in all honesty, should last forever. Hey, it's just a piece of foam with a reflective cover for those of us who have a surface that is less than ideal. I'm not certain why this one needs to be thick, with a soft and sticky back. Also, it is flat, but looks like it may curl like the other over time. I like the cover, it does work well with a mouse,and the gel pad is nice. But, heavy and thick and the sticky back side is not a friend of my wood laminate desk.

I am going to buy another one of these for work. -The gel cushion is soft and smooth. I have had no issues with irritation. It does not smell and provides comfort for the 2-3 hours at a time I use it. -The mouse pad is outstanding. The mouse smoothly moves over it with no problems and I have no problems with skipping or tracking. The pad is a little smaller than I would have thought but I have had no issues moving it around my dell 4k 27 inch screen. -I did not remove the plastic on the bottom and I keep this on a glass desk. I know people had complained about the sticky bottom. It does not slide at all. I would recommend it to a friend.

Sad that Amazon insists on combining reviews for unrelated products. This review is for the one with the built-in gel wrist wrest MW85B. I have the matching wrist rest WR85B, so I thought I'd get this one. The wrist wrest is OK. This mouse pad is, however, garbage! For starters, it is not even close to being flat. It is warped/dished, and the corners raise off my desk 1/8" to 1/4". So, as you move the mouse around, it is flopping around as well. This is a deal breaker for me. I tried to flatten it out with no improvement whatsoever. Next, it is really too small. Like the wrist wrest, the gel is quite hard, and, therefore, it's best to use it as a PALM rest. Either way, it is too short. From where your wrist wrests, the mouse goes off the top of the pad often. Width-wise, it is OK. Not generous, but OK. Additionally, it is a very scratchy/rough material for the mouse surface. It feels like you are almost dragging your mouse on sandpaper. It does not move easily, and, considering I am using a very expensive/precious Logitech MX Revolution mouse, I don't want it wearing the pads off. Finally, sort of a con, but these are not the "satin pillow" that 3M describes, but rather a firm (almost no give) gel/rubber with a matte soft-touch vinyl cover much like you might see on some automotive surfaces. In sum, the wrist wrest is OK, but the mouse pad version is terrible.

Hält genau was es verspricht.

Concept is good, however quality let's it down as it won't lie flat and keeps curling up around the edges.

Great item Thanx

Excelente producto, de buen material y la almohadilla de la muñeca esta muy cómodo, el mouse se mueve muy libre, muy recomendado.

Com o tempo, a parte de baixo vai perdendo a "cola" antiderrapante e começa a deslizar sobre a superfície da mesa quando você move o mouse. É só lavar a parte de baixo com sabão. A sujeira que faz deslizar.
