SteelPad S&S is a hard plastic based mousepad (not steel) created for consistency and accuracy. Dimensions are ( 320 x 270 ) and a 2mm thickness

Firstly I think I should state I am a very stubborn person when it comes to gaming gear. I am not a fan of change. I use the Intellimouse 3.0 combined with the func matt 1030 surface, have done for years. When my cousin Mark ‘Phunky’ Harwood asked me to Review the SteelPad S&S I jumped at the chance, because I felt even though I have much love for ‘my’ Gaming setup, I am still be able to give a fair hearing for other products alike.

After my review of the standard SteelPad QcK mousepad, SteelPad were intrested to see my thoughts of the QcK+ which they belived would be more up my street due to its monster size - and belive me it truely is a monster of a mousepad!

Now i was quite curious to see if anything else - apart from the increase in size - had been improved in the QcK+ from the standard QcK.

When i first looked at the QcK i found issuse with the thickness of the mousepad and also had a few issuse with the new MS Laser mice not working at all on it. You will be happy to know it seems they have fixed the issuses!

The SteelPad QcK is a durable cloth mousepad created to be ideal for low sensitivity mouse settings with a specially designed non-slip rubber base. This is the smallest version of the QcK with dimensions of 12,6in x 11,2in (320mm x 285mm) and a thickness of 2mm which is still bigger than your average mousepad out there.

With the sudden influx of “Gamer Mouses” being created from almost everyone these days - Even Quake 4 Player Fatality has his own - theres a very elite club of gamers that are sticking to there old 5 year old mouse and at times even paying over £100 to get there hands on a new one.
