No breaks or tears.
The gel pad part has a thicker skin and lasts longer than other gel pads I have used in the past. All in all it's more robust than it's competitors.

3M Engineering needs to perfect this product
This is a great mousepad design, but it warps in weeks. I live in Southern Nevada so I think the Mojave climate is too dry for them as currently designed. I would be grateful if the incredible engineers at 3M (I mean that) would put their minds together and make this mousepad warp-proof. Thank you!

Most comfortable Mouse Psd
I had the smaller size of this and really liked it. I just thought the bigger size would be better for me. Will be using the smaller one with my laptop. Really like the feel of the gel pad for my wrist while using either pad. GREAT PURCHASE for comfort. I would recommend either pad for a friend to purchase.

Love It
Got this for working at home. It works as it should and I noticed my hand doesn't get as sore. Mousepad/track is cool too and seems to help with less moving.

Great Mouse pad!
I just purchased one of these and I am very satisfied with this product. The gel in the wrist rest is very comfortable and my wireless optical mouse runs super smooth on the surface with no issues of skipping and jumping as I have read on other reviews. I actually was able to speak to one of the owners of 3M I believe his name was Matt. He was incredibly nice! I will d...

Comfortable wrist rest - mediocre mouse pad
I really like the wrist rest. It is quite comfortable especially when using the mouse a lot. The mouse pad surface claims to give superior mouse responsiveness for an optical mouse but that wasn't my experience. Initially it gave erratic performance with the mouse cursor skipping and jumping. I had to play around with mouse settings to get it to work well by actu...

Great Mousepad!
I usually just keep my mouse on my desk but I noticed I was wearing it so smooth that the laser won't focus and my cursor doesn't move. I didn't want a giant mouse pad this one was the perfect size. It has a sort of tacky non slip bottom to keep it put while you work. Good job 3M.

Wow great tracking
This is an amazing product. Comfortable helps with wrist pain. Also the surface is like no other mousepad - it tracks with little movement and precision.

Great mouse pad
The gel pad makes a big difference when on the computer for an extended time. Very nice product.

Terrible performance with wireless optical mouse
This mouse pad causes skipping jumping and lags in movement. I'm using it with a standard Dell wireless optical mouse. As soon as I switch from the mouse pad to the desk itself there are no such problems. The performance alone is maddening enough to throw this thing in the trash (despite having paid extra for the "precision".) In addition the surface of the mouse pa...

Worst mouse pad I’ve ever used. Not precise at all. Constantly skipping or not moving.

Comfortable and Practical What More Could You Want?
I've been using this mouse pad for about 6 months now and i love it. The synthetic leather is very comfy and doesnt hold smells dead skin or stain which is more than i could say for the neoprene pad this replaced. The light colored mouse pad really does help with accuracy and battery life of the mouse. I've noticed my battery life is extended by quite a bit!

3M Precise Mousepad
First the surface is soooo smooth this thing will last longer than I will. Second the gel wrist pad support is made of a material that will not soak up your body sweat/oil and provides great support.

Not Much Room
I feel the actual pad which the mouse rests on is not wide / long enough in my option. Once I place my wrist on the pad and my hand on the mouse there is very little space to move the mouse around. I have a medium sized hand and still have trouble. This is my only complaint. The cushion pad is great and the mouse glides great.

loved it until the gel oozed out on my wrist
Loved it until the white gel oozed out on my wrist & desk.
I keep putting black duct tape on it but it eventually oozes out at the edges.
It did last about a year though.

Good fit for smaller hands
A co- worker liked mine and we're ordering another. We left the backing on the pad so it can slide easily on the desktop to fit the angle of your arm as you change positions.
