Best Cloth Mouse Mat / Pad Available
By Ethan Nixon on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2015
Introduction Everyone has heard of SteelSeries, Razer, Puretrak, Thermaltake, etc. Not many people have heard of Glorious PC Gaming Race. I know I never did until I stumbled upon a mouse pad I thought would be perfect for myself. It was ginormous, stitched edges, all black, and super cheap. I ordered one. It turned out to be epic, and I don't mean better-than-the-rest epic, I mean better-than-the-rest-and-I-won't-buy-another-mouse-pad epic. The best part of the whole deal was being able to talk to them and communicate my thoughts and expressions directly, it was something I've never been able to do, except with ZOWIE for a short period of time. Anyway, back to the mouse pad, it comes in five different sizes Large (13x11"), Extra Large (18x16" 3mm), Extra Large Heavy (18x16" 6mm), Extended (36x11"), and XXL Extended (36x18"). So many options. Review I'll be honest, when I ordered one of their mouse pads, I wasn't expecting much. I ordered a XL Heavy, since I loved using a QcK+ Heavy. I've used almost every mouse pad on the market, and I usually always go back to a QcK. However, I can assure you that is not the case anymore. With the Glorious PC Gaming Race mouse pads you get a medium-low friction with a semi smooth surface. It's fantastic for all sensitivities, but probably favors low and medium over high. If you used a high sensitivity, you probably wouldn't have much control over your mouse. For this review I've used a SteelSeries Kinzu v1, Kinzu v2, and Logitech G302. I do not test mouse pads with laser sensors, they are not nearly as picky as optical. I can say with 100% confidence that the fabric used for these mouse pads does not affect the performance or hinder an optical sensor in any way. The G302 has a great sensor, so I expected that to be good. However, with my SteelSeries Kinzu v3 it had trouble tracking on a QcK at high speeds, and another one as well. Both were all black, so I thought it was the sensor. I tried it on the Glorious PC Gaming Race mouse pads and it seemed to have improved a lot. Another fantastic thing about these mouse pads is the rubber backing. It's thick, but not too thick. It does not slide at all, though I have a standard desk with no anomalies. Overall, the Glorious PC Gaming Race mouse pads have been amazing to me. I have used them for nearly two weeks and have not once had a single defect or issue yet. I've went between many different sizes and options, and I seemed to have fell in love with the XXL Extended version. It's big enough for my monitor, keyboard, and mouse. I will never run out of space, and it allows me to play the way I need to and feel the most comfortable at the same time. Conclusion If you're looking for a mouse pad, and need a specific size, or want to try something totally new, get one of these Glorious PC Gaming Race mouse pads. They have a size for everyone, and they perform as good, if not better, than the competition. I can't think of a single cloth mouse pad that performs better than these, especially a QcK or a Razer Goliath. The kicker to all of this is their price, it's completely insane for the quality that you're getting. As of this article, the most expensive option is $22. A similarly spec'd mouse pad from another company would be $30-40 easily, and you wouldn't get stitched edges. Pick one of these up today!

Why does this have so many good reviews?
By Bobby on Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2023
I want to start off by saying I'm disappointed by this item. I was shocked because of all the five star reviews, buy why? The quality of this mouse pad is bad. I just making a guess, but it feels like this is thin. The reason this is important, you can feel every simple bump under the mouse pad. My desk that I use for my gaming setup has a texture under it. I've used some mouse pads that are around this price range that are thicker than this one. I've actually used ones cheaper that this one as well. this makes a huge difference when gaming. This was very disappointing because it may work for all desk, but quality and performance may vary. Second point of why I think this item is disappointment and no, I'm not just being mean about this product, I'm providing an honest review based on thousands of reviews I've done while being on Amazon and doing my best to make people aware of the actual quality of the products I've ordered. Now that we are talking about quality, this is the next point I want to make about the product. The fabric that is used to just feels cheap. I don't know if it's the actual cloth used for the item or if it's the stitching, but the mouse just don't slide well and this is with glass mouse feet. Normally I have a test that I perform when I'm testing a new mouse pad and that is with an air duster. I will set the air duster that I got from Amazon. Normally with most decent mouse pads, the mouse will fly across the mouse pad with no issues. This one slides like I have standard feet on the mouse. I want to add this is a very tiny mouse, the Razer Viper Mini Signature Edition and it shouldn't have no issues with gliding. The only positive thing I want to add about this item is the size. I've gotten other mouse pads that are supposed to be the size that the Amazon page states for the item, but this is the only one that I've tested that fit my desk properly. I would like to add that the mouse pad isn't the dimensions that are specified on the seller's page. The dimensions state it is 24"x48". The dimensions of this product is 23"x47". I think of this in a cost to sales perspective. If you add up how much you space you are losing by an inch being shaved off, you are losing 30 square inches. Yes, I know this isn't much, but it is something that's important to keep in mind that's 30 square inches you're paying for. That is real-estate on your desk that could have been covered. I thought it was kind of weird that the other 24'x48' mouse pads I own were hanging off my desk, but this one fit perfectly for some reason. Overall, I don't like the product. I don't like the fact that the item doesn't glide right. For the cost of this product, it should be the right size. I don't know if people have noticed this and it could possibly be this is a fluke. Shaving off an inch on both sides may not seem like a big deal, but it could if there is a person(s) who needed a mouse pad to fit their desk based on the specifications that were provided. Also, hopefully this isn't shaving off inches for cost savings towards the seller. If you have this mouse pad and you've noticed the same thing, I would suggest telling the seller about it or leaving a review. If the page states it should be a certain size, it should be that size. This is 30 square inches of mouse pad that was paid for that wasn't received.
