When using a mouse on the surface, is there friction or is the mouse able to glide freely?

Mouse moves across the pad freely, but there is a little hesitation in the cursor movement.

a mouse glides quite freely-almost too much. Iy takes a bit of getting used to but it works well. I bought these for my kids so they could use the permanent markers on paper and not have it bleed through the paper and permanently mark my table. works great for that too

Works great. I actual like it better than a "typical" fabric mouse pad. Doesn't drag...

No, it doesn't. It has some workarounds, but it won't be as fast as or feel like it does with a mouse with a scroll wheel.

No, the top surface is smooth.... but my laptop has four rubber feet and doesn't slip off at all.

I think it does, as long as you use it on the smooth surface side. I have had to make some big movements in the games I play, and have had no problems.

The surface of the sliding touch pad is hard plastic. Also has a slight depression to the mouse pad area.

I don't use it for gaming, but I do use a laser mouse and there is no problem with sliding or with the movement of the cursor. Everything is very smooth.

No. There are two parts to this pad. One is the bottom part which is the non slip rubber pad and the other part is the actual surface that you have the mouse on. This top part is dual sided and you just flip it over depending on what surface you want. The wrist rest is part of the non slip rubber underneath part. Hope this helps.

It was a gift so I'm not sure. If i had to guess I would say smooth but I tried it out and my laptop didn't slide. But it's heavy. Sorry...it's been a long time since i bought it.

I have my mouse work on special mouse pad that goes onto my desk. I have never had any problems with this one or any previous ones. It's soft and smooth on top but the bottom of it has like a rubber matt to keep it from sliding on my desk.

I do not have a problem with my laptop sliding. it has like a mesh/ rough top. my laptop has grips on the bottom.

No, it's like any other mouse, it doesn't work well on smooth surfaces. Mine came with a mouse pad though.

The surface has a bit of a rubbery texture to it and it does hold my laptop in place. Sliding should not be an issue.

The mouse works well for me. The movement of the mouse is a function of hand pressure and the surface over which it slides. Maybe you need to get a new mouse pad? Amazon would be more than happy to sell you one with your order. (:-)

Not at all. We use it with drinks sitting on the tray and it glides with no problem.

My laptop has rubber feet so it does not slide. You could use anti-slip dycem to avoid slipping:

It looks to be a textured surface that is pretty much smooth. My Microsoft mouse just slides over the mouse pad surface. Very little resistance compared to a regular mouse pad. One great thing about using the 3M pad it takes very little effort to move the mouse and you have to get acclimated to that feel. One thing that I did was to peel off the backing of the 3M mouse pad and glue it to a regular mouse pad I had left over. Now the 3M pad never moves.I like the 3M pad so much I have 2 of them.I wish I could give it more than 5 stars.Great product!!!!!!!!!

the surface grip doesnt prevent sliding, as the majority of the surface is metal. there will be some sliding so be aware.
