Belkin WaveRest Gel Mouse Pad, Black (F8E262-BLK), 1 Pack

Used these most of my 22 years of military service when I was chained to a desk. I remember later in my career when I reentered office work and they went cheap and I regretted not having a Belkin mousepad so I ordered one and never looked back. This is my second purchase as these days I work at a computer again. Be gentle with the edges near the wrist pad, they may fray. Expect these to last but keep them clean. Best gel pad by far!!

I've been using versions of this mousepad for over ten years now and at this point I'll never use any other one again. I've tried numerous other mousepads with wrist rests over the years but they all have some problem or another (shape that doesn't work as well, uncomfortable or too short wrist rest, wrist rest that feels weird and crunchy, etc). Not this one. It's comfortable even after years of constant daily use, shapes to your wrist gradually over time but doesn't lose support, and is gel and not whatever the crunchy stuff is that other mousepads use. I ended up buying another of these for the office as well several years ago. No issues with slipping or any damage to the mousepad even after years of heavy use. It's amazing how well this thing holds up. The smoothness of the surface eventually starts to get worn after long term use, but it's still perfectly usable and causes no functional problems at all.

Good comfy mouse pad that doesn’t smell too much. Taking away one star due to delaminating in same spot on both sides. See red circle in photo. I used some E6000 rubber glue and gentle clamps to fix.

I love this mouse pad. It has great wrist support, and the color has barely faded over the decade. It doesn't slip or move around at all--it's very grippy. It's been ten years since I bought my first one, so I'm intentionally buying this brand again. The new one has a slightly different style, but I'm hoping it will be just as comfortable, and long lasting. As a writer, I rely on my mouse pad to support me through long hours of work.

This is one Hell of a product from Belkin! I speak from experience because I just equipped my entire studio with these Gel Mouse Pads, that would be pads for two PC laptops with extended desktops, a MacBook Pro laptop (my wife's), my 24" 3Ghz iMac that is used almost exclusively for batch editing of photos, and my PC desktop that I am working on right now. So that makes 4 of them in service as of this week, with the one for my PC desktop being the original one I bought more than 2 years ago, and it's in perfect shape after constant use for all that time, a testament to the product's longevity, resilience, and ability to stay shaped properly for a long, long time!I don't know about the review of May 9 here at Amazon.com that boldly states that "Belkin cheapened the product, changed it in fact" etc etc, blatantly speaking to the quality and condition of the product the reviewer purchased at that time...in fact I will dispute that claim 100% right here and now because the products that I bought this week from Amazon.com are IDENTICAL to the product that I bought 2+ years ago, they have not cheapened anything at all, in fact I would say the OPPOSITE of that reviewer, as it is my contention that Belkin is making the product better than it ever has been made up to this time, perhaps even improving its construction and feature set since 2007 when I bought my 1st one.I just don't understand how/why people blatantly, boldly write things like that which are categorically FALSE and MISLEADING to the buying public, the market here at Amazon.com which is worldwide, huge, with readers from all walks of life throughout the world...in fact it sort of shocks and saddens me when I have to contend that what somebody wrote is NOT THE TRUTH AT ALL about a product, and I am in fact doing that right here and now! Do NOT BELIEVE that review, not a word of it! This fantastic gel mouse pad from Belkin is a wonderful, perfectly constructed, made product that remains the sole product of its type that one can purchase for LESS THAN $10 here (retail being $15 or so) at Amazon.com, and I wholeheartedly give it Wavey Davey's 5-Star Vote of Confidence Award, so do not be afraid of it in the least! You can buy it here knowing full well and good that the product is incredibly well made, will last many years even in severe and constant service/use, and I am writing this right now to tell anybody in the market for such an item that THIS IS THE ONE TO BUY!I don't know where or what shape my wrist would be in without having mine in my studio to support it properly, but it surely would be in worse shape than it is right now! This thing works, and works 100% to the good for your wrist and hand's health and longevity, and it's quite simply the best thing that is available for wrist/hand support when you are toiling long, and hard at computing for pleasure or work, whatever, you know? It just works, and works WELL! FANTASTC in fact! Do not believe any claims to the contrary about how it's being made and constructed because this is the one that you should be getting if you are concerned about something lasting a long time and providing long-term use without any issues at all: this is IT folks, so believe me when I write this little review that you don't have to worry about it in the least, it's a solidly made product, with lasting attributes that will work just as good next year, and the year after, perhaps, no matter how many hours a day you use it!There, I've written what I wanted to write about it, so there's no use in making this longer or more candid than I have this time around, you just take it from Wavey Davey, your faithful Amazon.com reviewer of this great gel mouse pad, that things are on the up and up with it, it's the best thing you could possibly do for your wrist and hand, so go ahead and punch the button, hit the spot, and order it because you will NOT be disappointed, not in the least!!Wavey Davey - December 12, 2009

In trying to find a mousepad so my thin wrists don't hurt while using my mouse, I decided to go for one I'd used in the past and that a family member used for YEARS. This mouse pad is reliable, comfortable, and the mouse tracking is the only one I could get a Magic Mouse to track on. Excellent and can recommend.

I bought this a few years ago when I was still working because the company, I was with wouldn't get me a wrist support. I have carpel tunnel and really needed one and saw this and ordered it. I received it on-time and in good condition. These wrist supports are hard to find anymore & I'm so glad I bought it! It has just the right amount of gel in it to make it feel comfortable to use and when I retired from that company, I was happy to be able to take it home & use it for myself! Yes, I would definitely order from this company again!

Average affordable mouse pad. Nothing fancy but does the trick.
