Glorious 3XL Extended Gaming Mouse Mat/Pad - Large, Wide (XLarge) Black Cloth Mousepad, Stitched Edges | 48x24" (G-3XL)

Comment

Purchased this 5 months ago. I love the size. Tracking is wonderful on this. My mouse glides perfectly. I use low sense on my mouse, so having a mat that is comfortable to rest on and never run out of space is glorious. What Ive found to be frustrating about this mat is how much dirt it shows. Every strand of cat hair, every little speck of dirt from your hands shows. Now its to the point that if I slide my keyboard on the mat, theres a line from the feet. And lately, Ive noticed that the area where I have my mouse is marked up from dirt and grime from every day use. The other day I tried to wash it clean with a cold wet rag (no soaps), and after gently rubbing the fabric with the weave, the weave is compromised there and forever discolored. I would like to give this a perfect review because I want to support this company making big mouse pads, but with the current design, its frustrating that the mat couldnt withstand even six months of use without showing excessive wear. To be clear, I clean my desk weekly (dust) and Im a generally clean person. Ive used other black mouse mats without experiencing this problem, so theres definitely a weave or fabric type that can be used to allow it to be cleaned with a wet rag or simply by swiping it clean. Of course, YMMV, but for me, I wont be buying again.

Very good mouse pad for the money. It does exactly what it says it does not much more to it. I like the sewen edges, they add a nice contrast to the edges of the mouse pad. It is made of a nice fabric that feels very good. Mouse picks up really well on it, and moves freely. I can see where the logo might interfere with some people, but it doesnt affect me. I use the mouse pad such that my mouse rarely gets down there anyways, and it isnt really raised, its just a different material. Given that I dont think it would bother me even if I did get down there. My only complaint, and the reason I gave it four instead of five stars, is that it doesnt stay put on my desk as well as Id like, I dont knock it to much for that. The mouse pad does have a rubber bottom that should stick better, and Im using it on a glass topped desk. Just doesnt stay as well as Id like. In summary: Pros: Does exactly what it says it does edges and material are nice price is great Cons: Wish it would stick in place better. I will update this review if I find any issues later down the road. *Note* It is a black mouse pad, the color is odd in my picture because of lighting, I am using a Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX for PC and Mac by the way for size comparison.

Within the first couple weeks of owning this, the "Glorious PC Gaming Race" logo in the bottom left has partially peeled off, and is now half gone. This mouse pad also reeked of rubber and chemicals straight out of the box to the point that I could smell it all throughout the room, 20 feet away. That dissipated over about 30 hours or so, thankfully. I noticed that the pad isnt laid down perfectly flat, and the stitched edges are starting to fray despite not even owning this for a month. As for general usage, this mouse pad does precisely what its supposed to do. I underestimated the sheer size of the Extended, and thought that I might have to buy the XXL, but Im glad I didnt as the Extended barely fits on my desk with my triple monitor setup. This pad has more than enough space for a full size gaming keyboard and plenty of space left for a mouse to glide. It grips my keyboard just enough so that it wont slide if I dont want it to, and still allows my mouse to glide almost effortlessly. Regardless of the issues with the aesthetics, functionally this is a fantastic mouse pad, and until I try out a Steelseries QcK this is a product I definitely could recommend.

I loved that this mouse mat was gigantic. The reason for the low rating is that the surface was bad for the mat that I had. The surface has a horizontally linear texture of which would cause mouse movements to be slower (requiring more force) vertically and faster horizontally. Also, with horizontal movements I could feel the mouse wanting to track with the lines. The mouse would almost feel as if it is being guided to go in a horizontal line rather than being free and unguided. I attempted to sand the texture down although this did not do anything. I ended up going with the Dechanic XXXL mouse mat which does not cover my entire desk although the texture is miles above this mouse mat. The Dechanic is faster though which required some adaptation for me. You can give this one a try although the Razer and Dechanic pads Ive tried do not have this awkward linear texture I was describing. Im also surprised not many people are reporting this in their reviews.

Generous size that fits my desk nicely. Texture is soft and smooth. Outer stitching doesnt irritate skin. Mouse pad is smoother with less friction than Steelseries Qck, but still has good mouse tracking. In constant need of a trim as there always seems to be stray stitch fraying. Decal on the close right corner effects mouse tracking and has begun to fade with hand resting on it over a few weeks. End of the stitching on the close left corner was poorly done. It scratched my left hand often and I had to be pluck the sealed plastic thread part out and re-thread stitching to go underneath mouse pad. Accidental stain from coffee cup was easy to clean. I think that if you can handle the issues of fraying, plucking and re-threading then the Glorious XXL Mouse Pad is definitely worth its size and quality. Update - Amazon sent me a replacement mousepad. I am very grateful. The new mousepad lay flat and did not have any fraying. The finishing of the stitch was located at the same close left location as previous mousepad, but had been turned below the mousepad as to not scratch my skin which is acceptable. The decal on the right corner is the same and I can see it effecting mouse tracking and possibly fade if your palm is placed upon it like previous mousepad. The one issue I have with the replacement is that the stitching has been inverted. The stitching has a rough side and a soft side. On previous mousepad the soft side was facing up and on the new mousepad the rough side is facing up. The soft side is pleasant on skin, but the rough side scratches and chafes skin. On the new mousepad the edging seems like it wants to curl up where as the previous mouse wants to curl down causing it not to lay flat. This is most unfortunate and I have conveyed this message to Amazon and Seller about the quality. Hopefully they can improve.

Love it. Delivered on time. What I really like is this GIANT Mouse Pad [47 1/2 In X 24 In] is excellent for gaming in comparison to my Corsair smaller high quality gaming mouse pad. Not just because of its size but it protects my wifes antique desk surface, and the fact that it works extremely well for gaming is another resounding plus. She is happy and Im happy. However, what I like most about this GIANT mouse Pad is how easy it is to clean....just use a microfiber towel to clean it and it looks like new. Really, BLACK can be hard to keep clean with all the stuff that can shed onto a mouse pad, especially one that is so larger . I love it because it always looks brand new no matter how I abuse it and is outstanding for extreme gaming. Although I have never had to do this to clean the mouse pad, its even machine washable. Id purchase another one if I just had another computer station. The term Glorious in the title of this Pad is well deserved. Thanks for producing such a fine product. I waited a while before writing this review to verify this pads long term use characteristics. I LOVE IT.

I absolutely love this gaming mat. I had seen these for years but didnt really think anything of them. I was content with my little mouse pad and thought that was all I needed. Recently I was watching some streamers on Twitch and heard more than one of them mention they use a large mouse pad like this. I immediately went to Amazon to start doing my research on different brands. When I found this Glorious brand XXL pad I knew it was the one because I have already had a Glorious brand keyboard wrist wrest for a few months and love it. Once I got this mat rolled out on my desk and played a few games I couldnt believe how I lived without it for so long. Having so much area for your mouse that you dont ever have to worry about where the edge is is an amazing thing. There is plenty of space on this pad to have a nice surface for my keyboard, watch, and phone in addition to all the extra space for my mouse. If you have room on your desk for one of these I definitely recommend getting one.

I wanted a new cover for my desk to protect it from scratches, and my old card game play mats + tape solution wasnt really ideal. This is the only mat I found that was the exact size for my desk, so I took a chance on it. Im very pleased! PROS: + Stitched edge is sturdy and prevents fraying (Ill update if that ever changes) + Clean-- Im one of those people who does everything at their desk. My cat uses it as a bed, I always have a drink nearby, and I sometimes eat here, too. Food and cat hair havent stuck, and anything on it is easily brushed off. It also doesnt allow spills through to the surface below (but see cons for a concern). + Modifiable-- it was easy to cut a circular hole with an exacto knife in order to pull cables through my desktop. + Good grip. I havent had any issues with it sliding off the desk, even when I lean on it. CONS: - Slight odor when its new. It went away after a few days, and I didnt find it overly strong or off-putting. But if thats a concern for you, you may want to air it out for a day or two before use. - Absorbent. While nothing got through to my desk, I did find that it soaked spills right up before I could clean them up. For water, Im not really worried about it--it spreads and evaporates quickly enough--but Ill need to be extra cautious with sodas, etc.

I never have to have the fear of running out of mousepad before I complete a turn ever again. It covers my entire keyboard tray and then some. It also keeps my keyboard kaput. I love love LOVE this may. Not only is it big, keeps the keyboard from moving, have a hilarious logo, but its extremely smooth. Using a mouse has never been such a fine experience. This company is doing everything right in my books. Simple products that do more than just work. I will be coming back if I ever need more mouse pads or wrist rests. August 29, 2016 As an update, this thing is still holding up very well. I recently got a new desk and makes this guy look tiny! Ill probably get a larger size in the future to make use of the space. However I do have a bit of a problem. The bottom of the mousepad no longer seems to stay put as much as it used to, and as a result I find myself having to readjust it every now and again. Slightly annoying but hey, I still love this thing and it matches the rest of my setup so I aint complaining.

The size is really great, thats a big plus. The XL Heavy (5mm) stays in place and feels very heavy duty and plush while using it. I went with this mousepad due to a bunch of the reviews mentioning the slick surface, however I did not find this to be the case. I compared this to my older mousepad by a different brand but similarly priced (I paid $19 for 11x17) and the surface on that one was much nicer. It was a neoprene type of material and felt coated with something slick to the touch. It made your mouse slide across very nicely to the point where I would describe it like "butter". Almost felt like the type of coating you might find on waterproof material, where water would bead up when it came in contact. While I dont feel any drag on my mouse while using the GXL, I definitely wish it was a little bit slicker for my wrist. I tend to drag my hand on my mousepad while playing games (low DPI) so I feel this one a lot more than the old one. Im going to keep it and give it a fair long term test, but hopefully in the future They will put some sort of coating on the material.
