    Microsoft Mouse

    What can I say Microsoft Optical Mouse, comfortable grip, easy on the wrist. It is what it is, a no frills mouse that works well.

    Misleading specifications, but for $10, it still works pretty well

    The mouse works pretty well, but I was misled by the technical specifications that listed this product as a "High Definition Laser mouse". It is NOT a laser mouse; it's a standard LED optical mouse. It does work fairly well for a regular optical mouse, but I lowered the rating to 4 stars because of the misleading information.

    Great optical mouse!

    This is a slight step up from the generic wired optical mouse. It has a nice feel and works very well. It is a good value as well.

    LARGE Desktop Mouse

    I didn't realize that this mouse was the standard large desktop size. I was looking for something smaller so I wasn't a fan of this mouse. That being said, it is a good mouse. It responds well, would probably be comfortable if you wanted something large, and worked just fine. I had a bit of trouble when I tried to scroll-click close my Chrome tabs. It wouldn't respond each time but that wasn't really a problem.If you're looking for a simple, attractive desktop mouse, this is a great choice. If you want a notebook-sized mouse, look elsewhere.

    Great Mouse!

    This is a no-nonsense great mouse. Feels good in your hand, good grip, great tracking on-screen, and it just works. We got one for our laptop and we love it!

    terrible scroll wheel

    I just bought one of these from "Office Despot", beingdesperate after my old mouse failed. After 15 minutesuse I'm returning it. The scroll wheel on the one Ibought is uncomfortable, but worse, when I try toscroll I often get a "scroll wheel button push"instead. This happens maybe about half the time, andI couldn't solve the problem by using a lighter touchon the scroll wheel.I use a scroll wheel all the time so this mouse is justunacceptable for me.

    Good enough.

    It took me some time to get used to this after downgrading from a Razer Naga, but now it feels as natural as any mouse I've used. The scroll wheel feels cheap and quite loose, but what more can you ask of from a low-end value mouse.
