The QCK+ is a classic staple this mousepad shines against all others even those outside it’s class. The grip and glide is great and for gaming if you don’t know what pad you want it’s a no brainer especially for those who play a lot of CSGO.
However being a cloth pad without stitched edges too leaves more to be asked for in terms of durability as the pad is very thin and flimsy it will need replacing often.
hin but not flimsy- it’s a nice clean looking pad and feels great too. mouse gliding is smooth and my hand is also very grateful for this purchase (i was using a cutting mat before this…).
Good quality, the cursor of my mouse is much more precise and it does not shake anymore (as it used with the previous pad). I only got a small size and used to game and it is quite good, although I can’t really compare the experience with having a larger size pad.
My mouse moves amazingly with the mousepad, providing a speedy mouse move. The design is very cool and it fits my setup perfectly. it is also very easy to clean and is not a hassle. No complaints.
The mouse mat is very good to use and it has no kind of friction for my mouse so my mouse just glides which is perfect for when I play shooting games. It is quite small tho for gaming but that’s my problem because I bought this size mouse may
The material provides smooth mouse movement, and is comfortable when your hand is touching it. I’m not sure if it’s washable but will be trying as it can get a little dusty after heavy use.
This one is definitely small, but that is preferable for me as I don’t like it taking a lot of desk space, and I can slip it in my backpack when I need to take my laptop and work elsewhere.
Cheap and good quality, lasts a good two or three years of good usage before it starts getting white marks and needs to be replaced.
I think that the material used to print the white SteelSeries logo in the bottom left corner has changed since the older versions and is more prone to peeling and feels weird if your fingers touch it, which is rare however. I have seen reviews where it ends up peeling which did not happen in the older versions.
Regardless, still a good purchase for the price.
I like the minimalist design, the logo has cracked a little but honestly who even looks at that? It’s a mouse mat, there to be used thoroughly.
10/10 would buy again, not like it’ll be happening anytime soon because there’s zero marks on it, none at all. Delightful.
This was the first mouse pad I had ever bought and so far I am extremely satisfied with it. I had never seen the real appeal of a mouse pad. Now I can’t use my mouse without it. Using a mouse on an “abrasive” surface such as a table does not feel that nice and does damage the mouse (as I found out).
Pros and Cons:
Pros:
Surface: The surface of this mouse pad is extremely nice. It has a very soft texture, which may not be to everyone’s liking, but it suited me fine. The underside of the mouse pad stuck to the table well and I had no problems with the mouse pad moving during use.
Thin-ness: Unlike other mouse pads this one is very thin making it easy to transport.
Cons:
Size: This is a “mini” mouse pad so the size is quite small. I had no problems playing on it, but I do play on a higher sensitivity. If you do play with a lower mouse sensitivity this mat may not be for you.
================================================================================================================
Bottom line:
This is an extremely good mouse pad in terms of quality. If you travel a lot or need mouse pad you can use on the go, I would definitely recommend this to you. If you are a desktop PC user I would look for bigger mouse pad that is less portable. If you play on a lower sensitivity then I cannot recommend this to you as it is too small. All in all this is a great mouse pad for laptop users.

I bought this mouse pad because my cheap mouse was having difficulty tracking on my previous one (CM Storm Speed RX Small). This is the only other gaming mouse pad I have owned, so I can only make comparisons between the two of them.
This pad is a lot larger than a standard mouse pad, so make sure you have the desk space before buying. It measures ~32cm across and ~27cm up, which is quite a bit bigger than my previous pad. I didn’t buy it specifically because I wanted a bigger pad, but after having used it I wouldn’t go back, as I personally now find playing on lower sensitivity and using the whole width of the mouse pad to suit me better. At 600DPI, the width allows me to comfortably move between two monitors without having to lift the mouse. I play CS:GO at 600DPI and 2.5 ingame sensitivity, which allows for a full 180 turn without lifting the mouse on this pad.
The glide that this mouse pad provides is excellent, much better than using the mouse directly on the desk. As I previously mentioned, I bought this mouse pad because my previous one was having tracking issues. This pad provides a much better surface, almost completely eliminating the issues I was having (I eventually ended up buying a new mouse, but that is no fault of the mousepad, as the new mouse I bought tracks 100% flawlessly on the surface).
The bottom of the mouse pad has a rubber non slip base, which does its job. The edges of the pad are not stitched, but I’ve personally never had an issue with the edges coming apart on other mouse pads I’ve owned, so this isn’t a big deal for me.
The pad is quite thin, and doesn’t feel too “spongy” when pressed, presumably to provide a firmer surface for better glide. I imagine this could be a problem if you want to use the pad on a bumpy of uneven surface, as bumps underneath the pad won’t be cushioned out. The thinness has the advantage of making the pad very flexible though, which means it flattens out quickly after being rolled up and doesn’t curl at the edges.
One strange issue I’ve noticed is that the logo in the bottom left is quite large and printed on with a rubbery material, which causes friction and slows the mouse down if moved over it. This in effect means that the very bottom left corner of the pad is unusable. This has never bothered me whilst actually playing, but it’s still worth mentioning.
Overall though, this is a great pad that feels amazing to use due to it’s smooth glide, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a mouse pad that has the desk space and a flat surface to use it on.
