QcK+ Steel Mouse Pad Review

What can be said about a mouse pad, plenty when the mouse pad is a quality over large pad made for gamers. I thought a review on a mouse pad might be a bit difficult; after all it just sits there. By becoming ever more involved in the world of video gaming and finding so many useful and very well made products designed especially for gamers I have found some that are excellent in all respects. The SteelPad QcK+ mouse pad from SteelSeries is one such product that excels in quality craftsmanship.

I found one thing to be very annoying with my video gaming, having to pick up my mouse and move it on my mouse pad when I would come to the edge or plain fall off it. Especially when I was playing games like Battlefield 2142 sitting in a turret or vehicle and trying to turn around in a 360 degree arc I had to always be lifting my mouse. Now I can use the extensive real estate of the QcK+ SteelPad and roam the mouse all I need to.

The QcK+ Steel mouse pad has some pretty hefty dimensions, 17.7 by 15.7 inches of smooth cloth pad. This may seem large but it is certainly nice not to fall of the edge with my mouse. They do have smaller versions of pads in their Steelpad line but I really do like this size. I would constantly find myself moving my pad when changing from one game to the next or to general computer tasks like surfing the web or writing. For each of these separate tasks I like to have my mouse and keyboard in a certain spot on my desk and it is nice not to move the mouse pad every time I switch.

The QcK+ Steel mouse pad has some pretty basic features but how fancy can you get for a mouse pad:

XXL sized cloth mouse pad - your mouse will never slip off
Ideal for low sensitivity mouse settings
Compatible with all mice
Specially designed non-slip rubber base
17.7x15.7 in (450mm x 400mm) - thickness 2mm
