Awesome mouse pad but might not be worth it for some. Jan 13, 2008 By Gamearts
This is my first SteelSeries (AKA Icemat) mouse pad. SteelSeries makes a variety of mouse pads and this is one of the few they make that is made of cloth.

I was fed up and sick and tired of my laser mouse making my wooden desks dirty, so I decided I DO need a mouse pad. After curiously researching about top of the line mouse pads (just to see if there were such a thing) the SteelSeries brand came up and I became very much interested.

Despite its name, the Qck Mini is a little bigger than your average "freebie" mouse pad most people use. I was willing to go with one of their more expensive hard options (aluminum, glass, et cetera) but because they only sell them in large sizes, I decided to settle on the cloth version.

The mouse pad comes rolled up in a tube. It takes about a day or so of use to get the pad fully flat because of that, but it's really not a big deal or anything to worry over. The mouse pad is extremely nice to look at in person because of the uniform jet black in contrast with SteelSeries serious white logo. Makes a great complement to your overall computer setup if looks are at all a factor.

I use the Logitech G9 Laser Mouse in conjunction with the mouse pad and it glides left to right, top to bottom, very well. The pad is just a tad small so sometimes I have to pick up the mouse and place it on the other side when I'm moving across large screens but it's really rare. The size is fine for your everyday needs, but for those working on really big screens you may want to go with a bigger pad. I chose the Mini because my setup is a small desk for a tiny 11.1" laptop so I couldn't afford the extra room nor really needed it for the screen size.

The pad does collect some dust and particles fairly frequently but all you have to really do is wipe across with your hands every once in a while and you got yourself a clean pad again.

I'm very happy with my SteelSeries mousepad and look forward to trying out their more expensive options down the road (some sell for upwards of $50!). I purchased it directly from the company in Denmark. I consider this a top of the line mousepad for its class and size, and I love how it looks. Recommended for those who want a small and sexy mouse pad with no worry about your mouse going crazy on you or losing any control. But is it worth the extra money compared to your generic 99 cent mouse pad? Probably not for most people; but hey, what's an extra $10 extra or so for this bad boy? I'd buy it again.

Good, but doesn't stay put. Feb 05, 2009 By J. R. Abernethy
The QcK Mini provides a good gaming surface for the money. However, there are some issues you must consider before purchase.

I game at relatively low sensitivity, and I don't have a lot of desk real estate. The size of the QcK Mini (about the size of a generic pad) is good for people who have desks that dont offer alot of room, or don't necessarily need a giant pad but still want a quality gaming surface.

The pad functions well. With the textured cloth surface, mouse-work is generally responsive and smooth. The styling is minimalist and black which I appreciate. Considering the price is less than many other gaming pads (which can reach $30+), I would say it is generally a good bargain.

While the surface itself is good, the bottom of the pad slides around too much. I have a laminate wood computer desk and my Keyboard/mouse are above elbow level. The pad is very light and the bottom is not quite sticky enough. These factors combined mean it just doesn't stay put. I am constantly having to readjust the pad during or after sessions, which is not good during intense gameplay.

Another thing you may be put off by is the lack of wrist rest, but I think those just get in the way. I cannot remark on it's durability, having it only for a week.

I doubt I will buy another due to my particular setup, but if your desk is more textured then perhaps it will serve you better.

Pros: Good price for a gaming pad. Smooth response from the surface.

Cons: The pad is too light and the bottom rubber doesn't stick well enough.

Verdict: With the right setup, this pad can be a low cost gaming alternative to your generic mousepad. However, if your desk is laminate or anything else relatively slippery, I suggest looking elsewhere unless you prefer to readjust your pad every 15 minutes.

What do you expect, its a mouse pad Jan 08, 2011 By WM "Prince"
The mousepad arrives in a small stylish package. As you can see the mousepad arrives rolled up, contrary to hard plastic mousepads this cloth mousepad is very flexible.

The mousepad's front is made out of black cloth material and features a small SteelSeries logo in the bottom left corner. The mousepad's size should be perfect for most people, it's not too small but not too big either.

The base of the SteelSeries QcK is made out of rubber and this works really well, while testing the QcK the mousepad never slipped away.

The mousepad is a bit thicker than most plastic mousepads but it's still pretty thin. If you prefer a thicker mousepad you should consider the QcK heavy which features a thickness of 6mm instead of 2mm.

The Good Stuff
- One of the better cloth mousepads available on the market.
- Slightly more comfortable than plastic mousepad.
- Cheap.
- Mousepad doesn't slip away.
- Very flexible
-does NOT curl up, layed flat on first opening

The Bad Stuff
- Tracking isn't as accurate as on plastic mousepads
- Less durable than a plastic mousepad

The best mousepad so far Sep 25, 2010 By John Smith
If you need a (cheap) mousepad, then don't hesitate to buy this one. It's not like I've owned some super expensive mousepads, but this one is simply better than all the other mousepads that I've bought (I've owned from "gel" types to some plastic-y surface ones). It makes the movement a smooth, flowing breeze and it simply makes the mouse a joy to use. Even if you found the mouse uncomfortable to use before, this mousepad might make you see the mouse otherwise. So before you change your mouse, you might want to consider buying this mousepad instead.

This mousepad is a "mini" size, but it was bigger than I expected. To me, it's about "average" in size. This mousepad comes rolled up, but I had no problem with it since the material is cloth and not like rubber. You probably won't find any trouble straightening it up by putting it on a straight, smooth surfaced desk. I had no trouble using it straight away.

My Razer Imperator mouse had trouble tracking a black "gel" type mousepad, but this one has no problems. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a mousepad. If this mousepad wears out then I'll probably buy it again. Plus it's only like $7-$10! It just goes to show that you don't need to buy some super expensive mousepad to get a top-quality mousepad experience. Something about this mousepad just screams "professional" and "gamer-quality".

Sorry, but I feel stupid for reading all the negative reviews and buying some other mousepad instead. I should have just bought this one sooner.

Great Budget Mousepad Feb 28, 2012 By Ryan F.
For around two months I have been using a mouse pad that was included with a laptop backpack--it was a horrifying experience; it did not track evenly, was sized awkwardly and it smelled awful.

This OcK Pad is really a Godsend.

For less than 15 dollars, this is a steal! After removing the pad from the package, I took a good whiff: it was glorious. It flattened out fast enough, so I jumped online right away (for reference, my mouse is a Razer Abyssus; please stop laughing). After playing a round of Battlefield 3, I noticed something--my accuracy increased! My kills increased! My deaths decreased! It was great.

This pad has a nice, smooth and even surface, with a nice rubber underside that really holds onto my desk. It's quite thin, too, which is great news for my rapidly degrading right wrist. It really isn't mini as advertised: it's 8 inches wide, so don't worry about running out of luscious mouse terrain. I might note that it has some friction, which I welcome, as my Razer mouse is way too light for my taste.

I'm a bit turned off by the logo on the bottom left, but as a gaming accessory company, they have to put their stamp somewhere visible.

Overall, this is a fantastic little pad for the price of two Big Mac Combos. I think you know the right choice...get the pad.
