Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Allsop Redmond Mouse PadCustomer Review: Staying power Summary: 5 Stars
First off, let me start by saying I hate cheap crap. Now that we have gotten that out of the way, I must say I have had this mouse pad for nearly four years now. I still use it daily.
I too have experienced the chrome finish wearing in a small section where my wrist meets the metal, but it is only a couple of inches long, and about three millimeters thick. It is right along the edge of the black mouse surface, and isnt that noticable. Honestly, that is the ONLY wear on this sturdy pad, The rest of it looks just as good as the day I bought it, and after four years of service, you expect a little fatigue. If it was a traditional foam/gelly pad thing, I would have had to throw it out long ago. I have never had one of those last more than six months to a year.
For me, it is more than acceptable that the only signs of age my four year old mouse pad has is some missing silver. The black mouse surface has an almost pinstripe type look, which matches the rest of my computer accessories beautifully. It looks just as good as the day I bought it. The corners do not curl, the surface is in tack, and there is no signs of wear. I have noticed that on occasion, when the bottom of my optical mouse is in need of cleaning, or the batteries need replacing, the mouse gets a little confused. Some fresh batteries, and a wipe down of the belly of the mouse, and it is good to go again. The tracking is excelent at any speed.
I have a glass desk top, and the grip material ensures that my pad never moves. The large size is another thing that I appreciate, as well as the thick gauge of the metal. This thing is heavy, and you would be hard pressed to bend or dent it. I do wish that the chrome finish hadn't worn off, but that is my only complaint. This pad lasts and lasts, and is priced right along side the cheap plastic/foam crap that every other maker is cranking out, and you bet every one of those that are even close to the age of mine are far more worn and ugly.
I actually got on amazon to see if I could find this pad again. I am thrilled that they still make it, and I may be ordering another one soon. The fact that they still make this product says to me that it is worth buying again.
Description of Allsop Redmond Mouse PadThe Redmond Mouse Pad is designed to look like it came with your computer. A glance down the computer aisles of Best Buy or a quick perusal of Dell's website, are enough to show you that boring beige is gone. And unless you are part of the 5% Apple-heads, computers are going black, gray and silver. And the look of the Redmond Mouse Pad follows suit.
