UPDATE 12/2025 The roller mouse is still working wonderfully and the pain I mentioned in my original review has not returned. I am Extremely happy with this purchase - I highly recommend it and if this one ever stops working, I will buy another. Original Review: My shoulder wrist and forearm pain are gone! I regularly use two large monitors plus my laptop screen, moving the cursor across all of them is easy, once you hit the end of scroll bar if you haven’t made it to the desired area, there is a spring type of thing. Just push into the spring and the cursor resets and continues moving as needed. I was hesitant about getting the roller mouse because 1) I wasn’t sure how easy multiple monitors would be, it’s a snap and nothing to worry about. 2) I had used an ergonomic split keyboard for 15+ years, so I was concerned about not being able to use the older mouse with that style of keyboard. I decided to give it a try and now use a regular keyboard with no wrist pain as of yet. I’ve been using the roller mouse for a couple of months now. 3) The price had me think long and hard about it; but I decided to give it a try through Amazon because it’s easy to return if it didn’t work out, and because if it did work it’s much cheaper than doctor visits, physical therapy or surgery. I’m extremely happy to say I have not needed to go to the doctor for the pains I had and I no longer need to eat ibuprofen like candy. The only regret is that I didn’t find the roller mouse a couple of years ago. I use the number pad on the keyboard extensively, so I chose the Pro3, it’s perfect. Read more
The media could not be loaded. So glad I spent the money on this, it has so far passed any/all expectations I had for it and I don’t know how I ever lived without it! I am hoping it lasts for a good long time because of how much I spent on it and because I suspect I will need to buy another one if this one ever dies. The operation is so smooth and I learned how to use it in one day, but I was already using a trackball so it was probably a little easier for me. The only thing I can think of that would make it better is if it were wireless but even still I have no complaints about the wire, I just taped it down to my keyboard tray so it doesn’t get damaged.

I can’t sing the praises of this mouse enough. I’ve been using one for years. This is my second one. The other one, one key malfunctioned after a decade, and instead of fixing it, I opted for a new one. Not only does this mouse keep you from getting carpal tunnel, it’s faster because your hands stay in the same area as the keyboard. I started using this to avoid some early signs of carpal (my mom and grandmother and aunt all had it and had the surgery). After just a week of using this mouse, all signs of carpal tunnel disappeared and It has never returned since the early 2000s. This mouse has the added benefit of keeping people off your computer at home and work. Most people are confused by it and stay away. Worth every penny!!! Read more
Developed shoulder mouse injury and radial nerve pain due to years of using regular mouse. On my third week of using this roller mouse and my shoulder pain had subsided. Easy to use. No more gripping! Really like the roller bar , feels like butter. The only thing is that my ergonomic keyboard did not fit well with this mouse . It is curved with hand rest built in so it took alot of space and had to reach up to type . So had to revert back to regular keyboard. Which is fine for now since my job is 90% mouse dependent. Another thing are the pads . They are a bit stiff although I am very picky about that. Regular mouse pads hurts after long use so I usually make my own with soft materials. For this roller mouse pads, it’s built in . Wish they made it softer. Otherwise, it’s a good investment. Very expensive but outweighs long term injury! Highly recommend if you have shoulder mouse and nerve pain/injury. Read more
i can not keep my hand on pronation, that is why i had to leave the regular mouse,and that is why now i use split and tilt keyboard. however although it works excellent for my shoulder/arm, i can not get rid of the tilt. vertical mouse dont work because i had self injured already my palm using mouses too big for my extreme little hand (i am woman height 5 feet and zero inches). so if it has the tilt would be the perfect solution for my personal wrist problem. if it were shorter I could tilt it on my own, but it is a long as the keyboard.

I was having issues several years ago with carpal tunnel and trigger thumb where surgeries and other treatments had been recommended by docs from the excessive mouse use my job requires. I tried a vertical mouse and the problems got worse. I tried this and started feeling relief immediately. No real adjustment to use it - super easy to use. Now, several years later my problems are still resolved. I have them at home and at my office and will never go back to using a regular mouse as long as this option exists. Rollerball is fabulous! One of my best purchases ever. Read more
So far it’s amazing. I’ve had 1 before and have loved these ever since Read more
Excellent customer service. Using two monitors, when the roller would run out of room, it was requiring a lot of pressure to get it going again, which hurt my wrist. A knowledge customer service person suggested upping my cursor speed. It moves quite a bit faster than I am used to, but I'll adapt. It is much easier to use with two monitors. Read more
