3M Gel-Filled Wrist Rest With Integrated Mousing Surface, Black Review


I recently replaced all of my mousepads. I got one of these in black, as a replacement for the previous model 3M Precise Mousing Surface with 3M Gel Wrist Rest Blue Water Design 8.71 in x 9.21 in. This one is a little more professional looking, but the biggest difference is the wrist-rest portion is VERY firm with minimal give. Based on other reviews, I think many people would find it uncomfortable, though I find it acceptable.

The mousing area is the same size as before, with a good control surface and no notable friction or noise.

I also got a couple of these Belkins: Belkin F8E262-BLK WaveRest Gel Mouse Pad (Black) They are a similar idea to this 3M, but less cost and with a more contoured and slightly softer wrist-rest. The 3M has a larger mousing area than the Belkin, but if that's not a priority, most users may be just as happy with the cheaper mousepad.

Other than the relatively high price and the firm wrist-rest, this is a great mousepad.

Buy it here now!
