Crystal Gel Range

This Fellowes Crystals Gel Mouse Pad is a brilliant addition to my main PC setup. The gel wrist support is cooling and soft - ideal for long sessions at the desk. It really helps reduce wrist strain and adds a touch of comfort to everyday use. The non-slip rubber base keeps it firmly in place, and it works flawlessly with both laser and optical mice. The black finish is sleek and professional, blending in nicely with any workspace. Highly recommended if you want ergonomic support that feels great and performs well.

All good. Use every day. Comfortable

Comfortable, and easy to clean. Bear in mind, that you cannot have dust on pad, otherwise you may not be able to move your mouse as smoothly as you would like.

Being a graphic designer, I'm used to using a mouse for a ridiculous number of hours per week, months after month year after year, but after several years, the RSI in my mouse hand got so bad that it was excruciating, I spent a great deal of time researching alternative mouses first so that my hand wouldn't have to pivot at the wrist unnaturally high (Yes - I've used the same wireless laser mouse for years as it's so damn good) but acknowledge that the mouse and my chosen line of work are doing my RSI no good. I looked at Apple Magic Mouse (£60) and Logitech T400 (£20) and Microsoft Arc Mouse (£45), among others - all of which offer a better ergonomic fit so that your hand is much flatter and the angle at which the wrist pivots is almost parallel to the desk (has to be good) however read an awful of of reviews suggesting the level of accuracy and response was not as high as it needs to be if you have a job like, Graphic Design, for example. High level of response and accuracy with zero lag are critical. So £60 is a lot of money for a mouse right, a rip-off in my opinion. I considered gel mouse pads/supports as an alternative to spending a lot of money on a mouse, and therefore taking a chance on it being accurate and responsive enough at great cost. The gel mouse mat is a cheap way to tackle the RSI problem. This will sound like complete bu****it but from day one, my RSI has been practically non-existent. The gel pad raises the wrist and hand, allowing the hand to use the mouse at practically a horizontal level - eliminating the need to bend my wrist unnaturally for hours on end. I was very skeptical about buying this at first but as it was cheap (£6.00 less expensive than the high street retailers) I considered it worth writing off if unsuccessful. I since bought another so I have one for the office and one for home. Some reviews suggest the actual mouse surface is poor quality and peels off, but after 3 months, it's still like new and I can tell you I'm fussy as hell but have found this to be incredibly good. 5 stars for price, quality and fit for the purpose for which it was designed. Don't delay - buy one (or two) today.

I spend hours every day at a computer, and having had wrist and forearm problems I'm very careful to use a mouse pad that offers wrist support - and all this means I've had quite a few of these pads over the years. There's lots of choice of black gel pads, and they're so similar it's tempting to opt for the cheapest. I'm glad I paid slightly more, though, and bought this one. It's solidly made - no sign after two months that it's going to curl away from the desk - and it sticks well to the desk surface. The surface of the main part of the pad has whatever the mouse needs to track correctly, but is easy to clean (unlike many others, which have a kind of cloth). The support section has the right firmness and thickness, and has a smooth surface, so both comfortable under the wrist and easy to clean. All in all I like it very much, and recommend it. I've no idea, I should add, whether it's good for gaming, as that's not my thing.

I bought this mouse pad on the strength of positive reviews here and I'm very happy with it. It sticks so firmly to my desk that if I want to move it I literally have to unpeel it and stick it down again - there's no chance of it slipping! The gel wrist rest is very comfortable and not at all sticky/sweaty (for me) as one other reviewer found. I use an optical mouse and it works perfectly with this pad. My only criticism would be that since the wrist rest takes up about a third of the pad, the useable pad area for the mouse is slightly small and I find myself hitting the edge occasionally. But this doesn't happen a lot, and overall I would very much recommend it. I bought a vertical mouse to use with it, and together they have helped reduce pain in my wrist and fingers.

Great mat for the money. 14 months on gel cushion still plump. Getting a little weary on pad as you can see. It's not glamorous but I had a fancier looking oaf that lasted just weeks. Reliable stuff

Although I've only been using it for a day now, I think this is the best mouse mat I've ever bought. A mouse mat is something most people just take as a cheap surface to make sure that your mouse actually works, rather than bare on the desktop but I've made the mistake in the past merely to buy the cheapest available & think that's OK. Wrong. This Fellowes Gel Mouse Pad is a Rolls-Royce of mouse mats, if there can be such a thing, as it isn't a car. The surface area is more than adequate to navigate a 22" monitor with very little movement of the mouse: in fact I've had to slow down the cursor speed to half its previous speed, such is the way my old Logitech M510 laser mouse loves its surface. I didn't realise that the fabric surface of my previous mats slowed down the speed & precision of the mouse to that extent. It sticks to the desktop like a limpet due to a kinda gel-like underbelly & doesn't move about at all. You have to physically lift it up to reposition it slightly on your desk. Which is good. Everyone who spends hours on a computer should have a gel wrist support, to avoid RSI & this one is very cool. Very long, wide & generous. And, strangely, also cool to the touch wrist-wise. It feels cold & clearly the cluster of blood vessels & nerves in that part of your wrist benefit from this & you can roll your hand along it to cool your hand also, as it's so long. All in all, a tremendous mouse mat but don't forget to slow down your cursor speed when first using it as the pointer'll just shoot off the screen, the surface is so optical/laser mouse-friendly, I kid you not.
