Glorious XL Heavy Gaming Mouse Mat/Pad - 5mm Thick, Stitched Edges, Black Cloth Mousepad | 16"x18" (G-HXL)

Thoughts. The name... Yes... The name, It is no doubt the worst most suggestively named PC related item I've ever purchased in my entire life, Glorious xl heavy... The name conjures up certain phallic connotations... But i digress... Summary. This pad without a doubt has the best comfort of any I've owned, It tracks Comparatively/Equally as well as my other pads which are slightly smaller in height half as thick and wider than this but around the same price, It is THICK, I'm talking well over an 1/8th of an inch... 0.23622 to be exact and the difference is clearly seen in that the base of my palm is no longer dark red after 12+ hours of usage. With my g303 plus a mouse acceleration fix the accuracy is simply astounding, I can dart back and forth between enemy players in battlefield 4 like its nothing and i have enough space now that i can do full 360's in my tanks turret. An aside, I'm currently ranked 9th in the nation and was previously 1st in the world for tanks... so i think i'm qualified to speak on the merits of ancillary peripherals. Pro's. The price compared to others in its class is roughly 5 to 20 dollars less. Comfort is exceptional, As stated above my palm is no longer sore after extended gaming/production sessions. It is the only cheap pad with quality stitching, you almost never see these two things together. The tracking is on par with my qck which i'm now using as a pad beneath my keyboard. It is easily cleaned with cheap 70 percent alcohol and doesn't seem to hold on to dirt nearly as badly as my other pads. My g400 and new G303 both move and track exceptionally well on this pad i can't recommend it enough after having used it for a few weeks now. Grips my wooden table quite well, I've not felt it move even once yet and i am CONSTANTLY darting my arm around it. Cons. The stitching felt scratchy at first but after two weeks its lessened considerably. The pad had a heavy chemical smell that went away after a day or two... But that's to be expect when you've got such a hulking mass of petrochemical derivatives and was more or less a magnified version of what happened with every other sealed mouse-pad I've bought when i opened them, So be prepared to air it out if you're sensitive to that kind of thing. Its not 16x32 or whatever size my other pad is, But how the heck does that make it bad ??? not really a con :). Conclusion. This mouse-pad has excellent value and its form and function are exceptional. I'l be recommending it to anyone in the market for a new mouse-pad. Anyways, If you read this i hope i helped clear up any confusion you might have had, Its a great purchase that i don't regret in the least.

I’ve been using the Glorious XL Heavy mouse pad for a while now, and it’s been great. The 5mm thickness adds a nice level of comfort that really helps during long gaming or work sessions. The surface is smooth and provides good control without feeling too slippery or slow. The size is perfect, big enough to move freely but not overwhelming on my desk. It also stays in place well thanks to the rubber backing. The stitched edges are durable and prevent fraying, which I appreciate since I’ve had cheaper pads wear out quickly. The only small downside is that it picks up dust and lint easily, but it’s easy to clean off. Overall, this mouse pad feels high-quality and comfortable, and I’d definitely recommend it.

I wanted to get some solid use out of this before doing a review. And I've done just that. So here's the review. This is the best mouse pad. End review... Just kidding, but seriously. This thing is great! It's huge. Oh, so huge. I wanted something big and cushy to place on my desk because I rest my elbows and wrists on it often. After hours of design work and illustration I would start to feel moderate discomfort. Not any more. I got the XL because I wanted to cover as much surface area as possible with this magically cushy material. I can fit part of my laptop, mouse and a second keyboard (don't ask) on this and still have space to rest all my elbows and wrists if necessary. Having the heavy version is great because I can prop the front of my laptop on it and it actually aides in ventilation by creating a small gap between the bottom of the laptop and the desk. This might not be the case for all models of laptop, but it works with mine and is a nice little treat. Mmm... I've read how some folks are having issues with the mat laying flat on the the desk. This is due to it being shipped rolled up. I haven't had this problem. So, I'm not sure what to say about it. Try rotating it once in a while so it's getting used on all sides. It might aide in making it more flat. I love how it's stitched around the edge. Remember how mousepads used to peel? Well, they still do unless they are like this one. The stitching also means it can be machine washed. I haven't had a need to wash it yet, but the day I spill some BBQ sauce on it I'll be glad I got this specific mat. I mean, damn. I'm purposefully digging my elbows into the mat trying to feel the hard desk below. It takes a lot of force in order to, but anyway. I really wanted the long version of this mat, but it was too long for my desk. I'm glad I measured it. I just wish my whole desk had this mat on it. It's that nice. I like to let the mat overhang on the edge of the desk too. I have nothing bad to say about this mat. I struggle to even find anything to critique to help them improve it. Nothing. I got nothing. It's great. A small investment that has given me so much in return. I can't recall the amount of discomfort I felt before this mat came into my life. I would buy it again and again if I had to.

Got this cause it was cheaper than the QCK. Pretty good , almost similar. I like QCK’s material better tho.

This thing is great for the money, mouse glides great on it!

Definitely one of the best quality cloth mousepads for gaming, especially at its price point. It is a large size, which is what is recommended for competitive gaming. It is also thick.

some how using my mouse on my bed with creased bed sheets is better than using this thing i dont know why but the censor refuses to work on this mouse pad but works perfectly fine on anything else

Great mousepad, also great value for the money. It’s nice and thick and compatible with my Logitech mouse. I don’t notice any issues with the heat level and the brightness is about what you would expect with a new mousepad. The color is as advertised and functions well as a mousepad. Would recommend as this is a very affordable option that enables your mouse to glide well.
