Extend Large Gaming Mouse Pad XXL (0150) Review: 900x400mm Grey&Black Desk Mat
The Extend Large Gaming Mouse Pad XXL (0150) promises ample space for both keyboard and mouse, alongside durability and easy cleaning. In this in-depth review, we put it through its paces to see if it lives up to the hype. I spent several weeks using this mousepad for both gaming and everyday office work, rigorously testing its features and performance.
Features and Design
The most striking feature of the Extend 0150 is its size – a generous 900 x 400mm. This provides plenty of room for a full-sized keyboard and mouse, with space to spare. The 2mm thickness provides a comfortable surface, and the stitched edges are a nice touch, preventing fraying and adding a professional look. The grey and black color scheme is understated and blends well with most desks. The material feels smooth and offers good glide for the mouse.

Performance and Usage
In terms of performance, the Extend 0150 performed admirably. The large surface area was a game-changer, allowing for smooth, uninterrupted mouse movements, especially beneficial during intense gaming sessions. The anti-skid base kept the pad firmly in place even during aggressive mouse movements. The surface itself offered just the right amount of friction – not too sticky, nor too slippery. Cleaning was also a breeze; a quick wipe with a damp cloth was all it took to remove any dirt or crumbs. The stitched edges showed no signs of wear even after extended use. I found the mousepad to be incredibly stable, even when using multiple peripherals on it. However, the rolled up mousepad did take a little while to flatten completely.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Large size, stitched edges, easy to clean, anti-skid base, good glide, affordable
- Cons: Takes a while to completely flatten after rolling, minor initial odor (dissipates quickly)
Final Verdict
Overall, the Extend Large Gaming Mouse Pad XXL (0150) is a fantastic value-for-money option. The sheer size alone makes it a winner for those who need ample desk space for their peripherals. The build quality is excellent, and the easy cleaning is a huge plus. While it took a little while to fully flatten after unrolling and had a slight initial odour, these are minor drawbacks compared to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend this mousepad to anyone looking for a large, durable, and affordable option for both gaming and office use.
