AmazonBasics Ergonomic Wireless PC Mouse - DPI adjustable - Silver

I love the size, shape, and wireless features of this mouse. It is fast and works great with two monitors. The problem is the scroll wheel does not work great. I will scroll down and the screen will bounce up and down. It worked perfectly at first but now it is frustrating to use. I am at the computer working all day and I need the mouse to work correctly.

Out of the box, it was perfect. However, after about a month, the scrolling got jumpy: when you scroll down the page with the wheel, sometimes the page bounces back up. I read that this happens because of dirt or dust in the optical scroll mechanism. Theres no way to take this model apart to clean it, so I tried hitting it with some canned air in the gaps several times over a few weeks. But no luck—it still jumps. Yeah, its cheap, but how hard can it be to make a mouse that works? Then somehow the curser tracking went bad, too. This is super annoying, and now Im back on a an old wired mouse our IT admin gave me—but at least it works smoothly and perfectly.

This mouse seemed very promising when looking at all of the rave reviews. My mouse connected quickly but it was down hill all the way from there. The cursor jumped around uncontrollably or didn’t move at all no matter what kind of surface I tried to use it on. Back it went.

Installation was easy as always, just plug in the dongle and away you go. Size is a bit small, but I knew that going into it. It worked great for the first 5-10 minutes and then all of a sudden it started to lag, stutter, skip, whatever terminology you want to use. Its barely usable now, as I can barely get it to move for fine/precise movements (clicking on buttons, Excel cells, links, etc.). I bought this mouse for work because I wanted a cheap wireless mouse that had the forward/back buttons, but this will be returned.

It stops working every so often. Have to re-boot the processor and/or unplug the usb receiver and plug it back in. Some times I have to do this 2 or 3 times to get it to start working again. Works for a few days and then stops again. Amazon should allow a free replacement since it bares their name. Usually if it carries their name its a pretty good product. I dont recommend this product.........

This mouse did OK for the first few weeks, then it started eating batteries. A battery a week to keep it working!!

This mouse was fine for the first 2 months. Its comfortable on the hand, has enough buttons, and adjustable DPI. Unfortunately after 2 months the scroll wheel started to have intermittent problems, then the click started having delays. After about 6 months, it just suddenly and completely died. Tried new batteries, the red light flickers for a few seconds, then its dead again. Amazon: if you are going to put your brand on items, how about making sure the quality is up to standards?
