Do you wish your mouse could be more ergonomic? Well, Mouse Grips is the solution to both of these problems. Mouse Grips are pre-cut pieces made of high quality neoprene stickers that apply anywhere on a computer mouse (except at the bottom of course!). They increase comfort by providing more cushioning and absorbing sweat.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/01.jpg"></a><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/01.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/01th.jpg" width="179" height="250" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left"><b>Packaging:</b></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/02.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/02th.jpg" width="250" height="81" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="left">A Mouse Grips' package consists of a sheet of Mouse Grips enclosed in a plastic bag, stapled shut to a cardboard top. The front of the cardboard top has the product’s name along with an adorable picture of a mouse. The back of the package has installation instructions and a disclaimer that states, "Mouse Grips work best on clean, horizontal surfaces."</p> <p align="left"><b>Contents:</b></p> <ul> <li> 33 pieces of Mouse Grips, in 7 different shapes</li> </ul> <p align="left"></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/03.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/03th.jpg" width="250" height="208" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p><b><strong>Description:</strong></b></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/04.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/04th.jpg" width="250" height="189" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font></p> <p>There are 7 different shapes of Mouse Grips, ranging from a 77mm long, half teardrop shape to 14mm long ovals. They are made of neoprene and have a soft warm feel and texture. For now, Mouse Grips only come in black.</p> <p><strong>Installation:</strong></p> <p>The back of the package provides what I feel are the best instructions on installing the Mouse Grips,</p> <blockquote> <p><br> "Peel them off and stick them on. There’s no special way to install them. Just go with what feels good for you."</p> </blockquote> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/07.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/07th.jpg" width="250" height="170" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font></p> <p>Which pieces of the Mouse Grips you decide to use is up to you, though I doubt anyone will (or can) use them all on one mouse. I suggest placing a piece on each of the mouse’s two main buttons. </p> <p><strong>Usage:</strong></p> <p> Compared to a mouse’s plastic body, the Mouse Grips feel very soft and slightly warm. They have a textured feel for good traction. After a few hours of use, I found that my mouse still feels comfortable and dry. Depending on the mouse and how you "decorate it", the Mouse Grips will either make your mouse look and feel really awesome or really awkward.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/08.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/08th.jpg" width="150" height="250" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><a href="atruereview/mousegrips/09.jpg"><img src="atruereview/mousegrips/09th.jpg" width="159" height="250" border="0" alt="Mouse Grips"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font><br> </p> <p align="left">The grips stick very well. It would take a lot of wear and tear to make them wear off. With that said, they can be willingly pealed off fairly easily and leave no residue behind.</p> <p align="left"><strong>Conclusion:</strong></p> <p align="left"> Mouse Grips are a very neat product. Installation cannot be easier and their soft texture and moisture absorbing capabilities will enhance the ergonomics of just about any computer mouse. For anyone seeking more comfort from their mouse, the Mouse Grips is highly recommended.</p> <p><strong>Pros:</strong></p> <ul> <li> 7 different shapes</li> <li> Very comfortable</li> </ul> <p><strong>Cons:</strong></p> <ul> <li> None</li> </ul> <p><strong>Rating:</strong></p> <p>Excellent</p> <p align="left">(Ratings Possible: Terrible, Very Bad, Bad, Fair, Good, Very Good, Excellent) </p> <table width="75%" border="1" align="center"> <tr bgcolor="#0066FF"> <td><div align="center"><strong><font color="#FFFFFF">More Information</font></strong></div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><div align="center"><a href="http://www.atruereview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1996#1996">Discuss in our forums</a></div> <div align="center"></div> </td> </tr> </p> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div id="footer" class="clr"> <div class="rk-1"> <div class="rk-2"> <div id="the-footer"> <script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
