Need a mouse mat, a biiiig mouse mat.

I'm after a desk mat around 900x450mm wide but can't buy the Boogie Bug Aim B XL it's out of stock on ocuk or the XTracPads Ripper XXL as it's US only. I'm not really interested in the OCUK one (sorry ocuk

) reason been it looks glossy and I have read no reviews on it comparing it to pads like QCK+, Goliathus, Roccat, Talet etc.

To be fair I've ruined 3 boogie bugs now so I wouldnt rate them very high either.

I would honestly try the ocuk one thats on today only you could return it if its not very good.

Cupra How have you ruined them ?

Schizo · 6 Feb 2013 at 05:03

Yeh Cupra I would like to know how you ruined 3 as well,I've had mine for 3 years now and still looks good and it gets used everyday.

I cant see why the ocuk xxl is bad. Im sure 50 percent of reviewers (which all reviews are good) people have swapped from gaming pads of some sort.

And its on offer ATM im sure.

He has just mist out on the deal yesterday :O OCUK XXL mouse mat for i think it was £7

Roverno · 6 Feb 2013 at 13:54

I cannot honestly see how you could ruin three of these mats? I have a boogies XXL from before OCUK had their own branding. They are amazing, they are basically neoprene with a rubberised back.

I would highly recommend.

That said my boogie mat is fraying at just over a year old

Nate Silvers · 6 Feb 2013 at 16:43

Oh no missed the deal

LukieBoy007 · 6 Feb 2013 at 20:18

I recieved my OcUK mousemat yesterday (sod's law that it goes on offer for £10 off on the same day), but I'm ok with paying the full £18 as it's a very good mousemat so far. Would recommend it!

Got a pic Lukieboy?

LukieBoy007 · 7 Feb 2013 at 18:58

What is it exactly you want a pic of? The size?
There's some pics on the page:

I was asking what to get a couple of weeks ago (you can see my thread here) and got a good number of replies saying OcUK mousemat. If you look at Post #10 you can see someone comparing it to a BoogieBug.

Split the fabric from the foam on all the of them it must be the way i move my arm or somthing.

ozone extra thick is quite big imo,

horseunderwater · 8 Feb 2013 at 03:27

Ahh mine frayed a bit from one edge turned it round . I see Big mouse mats are becoming more popular

I ruined my first one on its second machine wash. which i found weird as the first was was a full 40' wash 16k rpm and the second was a cold quick wash with no spin and it bubbled up bad. It also frayed quite soon after I got it, which led me to think they were *not very good* but i ordered 4 (XL) when they were on offer so had 3 that needed using. My second, third and fourth (XXL - the second and third XL were so good I got some XXLs when they went on offer) are still going strong and are in the same condition as when I started using them. even the second one that my 4 year old uses and abuses. I've got three in standby otherwise i would have got another lot when they went on offer.

i wash mine in the bath by hand

SlipperyJohnson · 8 Feb 2013 at 08:49

I've got a steel series I have literally had for over 10 years and it's still going strong. Would highly recommend them for mats, no idea about their other lines though.
