Perixx DX-1000XL Waterproof Gaming Mouse Pad with Stitched Edge - Non-Slip Rubber Base Design for Laptop or Desktop Computer - XL Size 15.75 x 12.6 x 0.12 Inches, black

UPDATE: Bought second one today.PREVIOUS REVIEW:Very happy with this mouse pad. I am going to order another for a another work place after 2 years of use. Works great for my gaming and mouse movement. About 9 7/8 inch x 8 1/4 inch size x 3/16 thick.Basic, nice, and thin. I wish there was no logo on top, but it is not distracting. After 2 years, it is holding up well still. I appreciate the thin profile. It is always smooth and my laser mouse tracks excellently on it even with a bit of lifting mouse.I also bought a hard top mouse pad at the same time, looking for the fasting movement and tracking at the time, but the tracking on this one I have been using ever since receiving both. It's smooth, and stays where it is supposed to while moving.I use it several hours daily, gaming or interneting constantly. I did get a slight wear at one edge where my wrist contacts, but I still see several more years of use coming and the current wear is less than a millimeter on the edge with just a couple chipped spots. Great price for the use. I was revisiting to buy another for my work desk where I have used no pad for a few years and this will definitely increase my productivity and accuracy.update 11/9/23 - I use the ~8" x 10" pad. I wanted a 4th spare for fear of running out. These pads are quite thin, that I have come to love because they do not live my mouse from the desk plane (good for the carpal tunnel issue prevention). I have not had separated edges ever, only a bit of wear on edge at wrist. Gaming 2-8 hours daily, and working on the other pad 8-9 hrs daily. As of this date, it looks like they have started stitching the edges....... I will not be buying if that is true. I do not want a rib there at the edge of which to bounce my mouse :/ What a poor idea for overcoming possible peeling of the top by apes or oafs of gamers. I will return if I get one with stitching.

I originally had a very large full-sized gaming mouse mat that covered a much of my desk.I loved the freedom of mouse movement, but due to it's size material, the rubber/chemical smell was very strong and was driving me crazy. It gave me a headache & my hand would smell after using it.This is extremely common with mousepads and it's difficult to find one that doesn't smell.I read the reviews on this one and many reviewers said it doesn't smell so I bought it (XL Size 15.75 x 12.6 x 0.12 Inches).The reviews were accurate, the smell is there but unlike other mousepad, it's very minimal, only noticeable if you shove your nose right in it, plus I've only had it for a few hours so it will probably get even better over time. Other than that, at normal distance, I can't really smell it at all, and I'm super fussy about smells, so I'm really happy with it.The glide is fantastic. I have a collection of gaming mice and they all glide across this mat beautifully and smoothly, better than my other mouse pads, it feels awesome.The build quality is top shelf.And on top of all that, the price is absolutely unbeatable, better than most other brands.So overall I'd say this is a no-brainer, an awesome product I wouldn't hesitate to buy again, and highly reccomended. I've tried Perixx keyboards too and thought they were very good for the money, so I'd say this is a very good brand.

Might buy a second one, this is awesome. I didn't know these existed until I was at an anime convention and saw what looked like a giant mouse pad advertised as a card game pad. I didn't want anything themed so I didn't buy one on the spot, but would have. The dimensions are as described and it is built really well. I haven't had any problems with moisture from bowls of cereal, or spilled soda. I can't even tell where it happened. Something that I am concerned with when I buy mouse pads is the odor they have upon opening. Because that "new car smell" or in some cases "new mouse pad" smell is a noxious toxic fume that takes a while to dissipate after manufacturing. This pad didn't have hardly any hard factory/rubber odor at all. What I could notice was very mild. I bought another mouse pad off Deviant Art of a character for my wife and it arrived with such a horrible odor I had to let it air out outside...Update. as of 9/15/15I AM actually going to buy two more of these. I am expanding the peripherals of my computer. Presently my keyboard is largely on the left side of this pad, and a lot of my items are on the right (since I am right handed). I'm going to be needing more space on the left, so I'm going to get two more. With the third one, I am going to cut it in half length wise and add them behind the other two whole ones. I got a very big desk, and it is a lot bigger than that. I find everything about the size, shape and texture to be great. I too don't have a problem writing with paper on it. My cats also like to lay on it.I find the edges to be sharp, but that isn't a big annoyance, but I have another solution in mind for that anyways since I intend on padding the edge of the table anyways.All in all, this is great. The worst thing about it is really the logo. I'd rather it be completely plane.
