It’s a black mouse pad. $3. What could possibly be controversial about such a basic and inexpensive product? OK, so, thinking that, I didn’t bother to read the reviews. In the famous words of Julia Roberts (“Pretty Woman”) — “BIG MISTAKE. HUGE!”
I took it to my office and opened the bag sitting at my desk. The smell was so bad I almost gagged. I sprayed it with room spray that has Febreze in it which was so futile it was almost funny. I put it back in the bag, taped it, put it in another bag and the smell lingered in my office for the rest of the day. I took it home, rested it between the screen and window and let it sit there. After a day it was a little better but not much. THEN I read the reviews. OK, so I’ll try washing it with dish soap a couple of times before chucking it but this has taken WAY too much time and WAY too much effort for a damn mousepad.
Lesson learned: ALWAYS READ THE REVIEWS! If I’d seen the reviews before I ordered this stinky thing I would have saved myself a lot of trouble. Oh, yeah, and $3.
UPDATE: A day later I’ve washed this wretched thing in lemon dish soap, soaked it in baking soda (which gets rid of bad smells in microfiber and most anything else) and washed it in lemon dish soap a second time and propped it to dry in my dishwasher. Now my dishwasher smells, my hands smell and this gross thing is in the trash where it should have gone the day I received it. If it cost more that $3 I’d return it but I’ve wasted way too much time already.
FINAL RECOMMENDATION: DO NOT BUY!

This mouse pad is exactly what I expected.
It looks good on my desk, it is comfortable on the wrist, it stays in the desired location (good grip on the bottom).
I’m happy with this purchase.

Size is right, lays nice and flat, texture is perfect but OMG the smell! I bought 3 of them and these things smell like concentrated ashtray or burning factory or maybe smouldering tire dump. Contaminates any tote bag we put them in. Makes any office smell like a smoker works there. If you are a chain smoker you won’t notice a thing, this mouse pad will work great for you. If not, don’t use them yourself, give them as gifts to your enemies.
We have them outside on the porch with dryer sheets between them hoping this stench gasses off pretty quickly or they are going in the bin on the next trash day.

Bought all 3 colors, the black one is great, weights like 5x the others 2. It’s like rubber with cloth on top. The grey and blue is cheap packing foam with cloth glued on top. DO NOT GET ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE BLACK ONE! Pretty sure there are better options than the grey or blue one out there; these thing doesn’t seams durable at all (non stiched edges) and has a pretty rough surface. Good for a cheap mousepad but I am sure there are some offbrand options that are better or products 2x the price for 3x the quality. For 8$ it’s ok, but most dollar store probably have the same quality or even better for cheaper… Hell I got better quality foam with my keyboard…

The reason for the 4 stars was that the one I got was only 9″ x 7.5″ but it will work. So if you have limited space this is a really nice mouse pad!

Even when I put my nose to it, it doesn’t stink.
I have one of these mouse pads and I don’t understand why some people are putting their noses up to it, smelling it and saying it stinks. First of all, normal usage does not detect any offensive odors. Furthermore, I have no reason to put it up to my nose and smell it. I’m just glad that what I paid for is more than I expected. It is thick, large and protects the palm of my hand from getting sore. It functions as described and there is no foul odor unless you’ve got compulsive obsessive disorder. I personally love it and am ordering a second one. This is not a pitch, just an average guy giving my honest opinion.

I had this mouse pad before. I bought it at least twice. I needed to replace mine because it aged. As I was happy with my mouse pad, I just reordered the “same” – on in black, one in purple color.
The purple one can be returned. It has a flimsy surface and the mouse moving on it makes sounds. If you want to hear the mouse-gliding sounds every time you use it, you might be fine with this one.
The black one does not have the same shape or fabric as the one I used to have either. And yes, it does really REEK. It reeks to the point that the hand you use your mouse with will stink too, and pretty badly. I do not understand what on earth they made this mouse pad from. Also, this one was NOT returnable. So, if you don’t want to spend time with customer service to return a 5-dollar mouse-pad and you might not like having smelly hands (and office), stay away from this.

A well priced and well made product. I purchased 2 of them. One for my desktop wireless mouse as a birthday present-and I used the other one as a place mat for my spectacles and Iphone on the bedside table.

I’ve been re-ordering this same item over the years as I’ve worn out old ones. However, the ones I received this time seem different than previous ones. Reviewing my purchase history, I have purchased these 7 times previously, and this time ordered a batch of 3 (total of 10 purchased).
Using my caliper, my old ones measure ~4.95mm in depth. These new ones are measuring ~4.67mm in depth, e.g. 0.28mm thinner. Doesn’t seem like much, but I noticed it immediately, which is why I got out my calipers to verify. Just doesn’t feel as meaty and sturdy. I want a nice, quality mousepad — not a flimsy one. I really don’t care if it’s $1 or $10. I just want a nice one.
Another thing I noticed immediately — these smell AWFUL. I don’t recall my old ones being this noxious, even when they were brand new. I’m going to toss them in the dishwasher to see if that helps. Another reviewer mentioned that leaving them outside a few days didn’t help, so I’ll skip right past that strategy. (Thanks for that intel, fellow reviewer.)

Purchased for my wife to work on a shiny table and desk that were messing up here very expensive mouse. It does what it is supposed to. Looks fine. Easy to put in a briefcase or laptop bag.

Ok, this just smells beyond awful. I removed it from the packaging yesterday and it literally smells like the dirt floor of a barn that has been infused with animal feces. I’m actually worried my coworkers will think the odor is emanating from my feet or god forbid my mouth. If it were not so cheap I would absolutely request a refund. I imagine the odor will dissipate at some point, as is generally the case with various other chemically treated garbage I’ve been lured into purchasing at super low prices from Amazon. I am considering washing it in the office sink and hanging it to dry. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea…exactly what I want to do with my time. Thanks!
