Innovera Gel Mouse Pad with Wrist Rest, Nonskid Base, 9 X 7.5 - Inches Black (51450)

I've been using this pad since August 2013, and it made a huge impression since day one. I do a lot of design work (and gaming) and use the mouse intensively, so any kind of pain interferes with work flow. When I started noticing wrist/elbow/shoulder aches after long (or even short) hours on the computer, I bought this pad based on other reviews. I was not disappointed.PROS:Gel Pad:- Firm yet soft, sleek, and super comfortable to rest your wrist on, even with a bit of pressure.- The pad itself is curved up toward the outer ends, so you can easily get different levels of height/support if needed.- Stays in place during heavy usage and fast mouse movements (good for gaming).- Does not get hot or sticky from wrist movement. A bit warm, but that's expected.- Does not feel like it would break or wear out easily (unless you or your kids have a compulsion for poking holes into things).- Very easy to clean/wipe down.Mouse Pad Surface:- Smooth, with just the right amount of texture/friction.- Zero "jumping cursor" issues from pad reflection (I use a standard optical mouse).- Good amount of room for arcing back and forth.CONS:- The very edges of the textured part of the pad are a dust magnet. Not terribly, but it's enough to be noticeable. Nothing that can't be remedied with a Lysol wipe. Totally not a deal-breaker for me.NOTES:- Despite listed dimensions, the actual designated mouse area is just under 8" at the widest point, and just under 7" from top to front base of gel pad. Keep that in mind if you have bigger hands, a ginormous monitor, or just flail the mouse around a lot.I can honestly say that using this pad has relieved ALL of the nearly-carpal-tunnel pain I was experiencing previously. I can click to my heart's content all day now and not experience any tension, soreness, or strain. Wrist angle means everything!

This gel mouse pad is almost twice as large as my last one, and I really like it. I didn't even realize just how small my other mouse pad was until this one arrived. My old pad was getting pretty grimy after daily use for about 4 years. I did a quick search and found this was rated as the highest rated gel mouse pad on Amazon. I didn't even read further. I just ordered and figured it would be at least adequate with such a high rating. As it turns out it's even better than I had hoped for.The large size means the mouse is able to stay on the pad, rather than needing to be lifted off the pad to readjust to scroll again from the other side of the pad. The gel part your wrist sits on is very plump and wide, so there's lots of room to rest your hand/wrist. I ordered it in the black color and it's quite professional looking. The gel pad is opaque, so it doesn't have the clear gel look. At a glance, it has the same look as smooth black leather. So it will go well with black leather office chairs and such. The bottom of the pad grips the desk well, and the pad's surface works with each of the mice I have used with it. It's basically the perfect mouse pad. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat if I need it. There's a reason this pad is so highly rated. Everything about it is just right.

Well, there's not much to say. It does exactly what it's supposed to. It provides solid wrist support and works well with my mouse. The wrist rest is firm and doesn't seem like it will wear down over time. The back has a slightly sticky rubbery material that makes it so it doesn't slide across your desk. But it's not sticky enough that hair gets caught in it or that it leaves a residue. It just keeps it from moving. Anything that happens to stay on it is easily wiped off without ruining the back. Also, this creates a slight smell straight out of the box, but it quickly disappeared for me within a day or two.If I have a single complaint, it's that the wrist rest is a little big. Sometimes I use desks that are a little higher, and on these my hand ends up at a weird angle. But when this happens I just turn the mouse pad around backwards and use it without the wrist rest.I know 13 bucks is a lot to pay for something that just sits there, but I wanted to get a nice mouse pad that wouldn't get ruined, as I transfer it in a bag a lot between home and work. I didn't want a $2 one that would fall apart in a week. In this, it succeeded. Well worth the money.

I was looking for a solid mouse pad for office work and after having some trouble with a cheaper, colored version settled on this one. I absolutely love this mouse pad and I'm thinking of getting a second one for home use. I work as an office manager so I'm on the computer a lot running reports, entering data, etc so I wanted something that would work smoothly with the other products that I had. First of all, this is a heavy mousepad that doesn't slip and slide easily around the desk. In fact, it is hard to get the mouse pad to move around at all. When you want to move this mouse pad you actually need to lift it up from the edge to move it around. I like the weight and the grip that the bottom has because it keep is from moving and keeps my mouse where I put it. The top is also harder than standard mousepads which makes for smooth tracking on the pointer. The wrist support is just right for providing a comfortable place to rest your wrist while you are working.I would definitely recommend for office work and I think it would be great for gaming as well. I am considering buying on for myself at home for gaming purposes.

Esse mouse pad é sensacional. Já tive um por anos, mas acabou estragando por descuido meu. O descanso de pulso é bem confortável e não irrita a pele. O tracking do mouse é bem preciso e ajuda bem na utilização do mouse. Por fim, ele fica bem fixo à superfície.

Confort !

El mouse se mueve sin ningún problema y el pad debido a su peso se "adhiere" a las superficies planas lo cual hace que no se mueva para nada, para mi que soy gamer ese detalle lo vuelve magnifico.

Bought a very expensive one for my relative as a present and this one for myself. I must say I like this more. The surface, the wrist rest, the way it sticks in one place on the table - all very good and solid.Well done!

This is great, it's firm but at the same time not too hard, and it doesn't move at all. I bought it along with the long one that you put on your keyboard and my wrists have never been better (I suffer from carpel tunnel). This is great for continuous computer work.
