Over the past few weeks, I’ve been putting the Large Gaming Mouse Pad (900x400mm-Office Shortcut) through its paces. This XXL mousepad promises a large surface area, durable construction, and a unique shortcut design – all at a supposedly affordable price point. But does it live up to the hype? Let’s dive in.

Features

The most striking feature is its sheer size: 900 x 400 mm. This provides ample space for both my keyboard and mouse, eliminating the constant readjustments I’ve experienced with smaller pads. The integrated WPS shortcuts (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) are a clever addition, although their usefulness depends heavily on your workflow. The stitched edges feel robust, promising longevity, and the smooth polyester surface glides nicely under both my optical and laser mice. The 2mm thickness provides a comfortable cushioning effect.

Performance

In terms of performance, the mousepad delivers. The smooth surface allows for precise cursor control, and the large size eliminates the need to constantly reposition my mouse. The stitched edges prevent fraying, and the base grips the desk firmly, preventing slippage. The WPS shortcuts are a nice touch, especially for those who frequently switch between these applications. However, I did notice a slight, rubbery odor upon opening the package; as advertised, it dissipated after a couple of days of airing out.

I tested the mousepad extensively during several long gaming sessions and extended periods of office work. During gaming, the smooth surface provided a responsive experience, allowing for quick and accurate movements. In the office, the shortcut keys came in handy, although I found myself occasionally accidentally activating them.

One minor drawback: the large size might be overwhelming for users with smaller desks. It also takes up a significant portion of desk space.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Large surface area, stitched edges, smooth surface, comfortable, unique shortcut design, good value for money.
• Cons: Initial rubbery smell (dissipates quickly), large size may be unsuitable for smaller desks, occasional accidental activation of shortcut keys.

Final Verdict

Overall, the Large Gaming Mouse Pad (900x400mm-Office Shortcut) is a solid product. Its large size and smooth surface are major advantages, and the stitched edges enhance its durability. While the initial smell and potential for accidental shortcut activation are minor drawbacks, they don’t significantly detract from the overall positive experience. If you’re looking for a spacious and durable mousepad, especially one that integrates well with office applications, this one is worth considering. I would personally recommend it.
