Surface of pad works well with optical mouse. But bottom surface does not prevent sliding of mouse pad across surface of desk. Would NOT purchase this product again.
I just cannot imagine why everyone would not be using this mouse pad?! This should be the only one on the market! I have been computing since the mid 1990's and never before has a mouse pad surface been this good. No drag fast accurate easy to clean easy to transport and seems like it would last forever. And with NO DRAG easy on the wrist so that means greatly reduced chance of carpel tunnel. Get rid of the cloth pads and get this one! It's a no brainer!
