I was hoping to by the purchase the same soft gel wrist that I usually get from Staples but the newest version just isn't soft enough. I love the new fabric though. My mouse has more glide but I was looking forward to the wrist rest to be sofer. Currently it has little to no comfort.
I am quite happy with the mouse pad. It is easy to slide the mouse on as opposed to the desk top. However I have turned it around so that the wrist rest faces the other direction. I could not adjust to the feel of it. Otherwise I am delighted with it.
