Could possibly have some harsh chemicals on it.

Very high quality feel but had a VERY strong chemical smell for the first few days

I used a harsh chemical spray and Lysol wipes to scour the surface of the desk, even to the point of damaging the finish, and still there is no change

It does have a strong chemical smell out of the box but after a few hours it went away (or I adapted to it).

So after almost 2 months that crazy awful chemical smell didn't go away

It did have a weird chemical smell to it but, other than that, it's fine.

Disgusting plastic chemical smell does not dissipate after airing out for a week.

this mousepad smell like burned tire and nasty chemicals, its been 2 weeks and the smell is all over the room.

(maybe the design or something) but it is always in the same spot and its extremely annoying as I run 3 2560x1440 monitors with a 4800 dpi so as most people do keeping the mouse in the center part of the pad this gets very annoying when gaming or just moving from one monitor to the next where my mouse just stops responding and being so adjusted to knowing the precise movements needed to get my mouse to where I need it and then having to lift my mouse and readjust it if I'm panning to hard to the left

I am a little bias to Corsair, I love their products and I did not expect to find as much joy with the mouse pad as I

would like you ppl think the same as i on this

Smooth! A+

good and large as i thought, so cool

This is as beautiful as it is functional

The size may seem like overkill, but it's perfect as long as you have the space for it
