Hi. I purchased the dark blue version of this writing mat/desk protector and I am quite pleased with its usefulness and how it looks. I purchased the smallest version and, as you can see in the photos I’ve attached, it’s proven to be a practical size for my desktop workspace. The mat has a texturized, cloth like, underside that effectively prevents it from sliding on the smooth desktop as I type or use the mouse. And, speaking of the mouse … I am able to use my Apple mouse on it without any problems at all. There is ample space to the right of my keyboard for me to use the mouse without any changes or compromises for space. It’s a layout that works well and I’m happy to say good-bye to my separate, stand alone, mousepad. The mat I received arrived rolled up in a rectangular box (see attached photos) and had a significant curl on its release. The good news is that this is easy to fix. I lay the mat, face down, on my desk and then placed a single layer of hardcover books on top of it, entirely covering its surface. I left it this way overnight and in the morning the curl had almost disappeared. For good measure, I repeated this process the next night and, the following morning the mat was perfectly flat and ready for use. The takeaway: This writing mat / desk protector is a good looking and useful addition to a home office workspace. It eliminates the need for a separate mousepad and provides a welcome “pop” of color that is a simple visual pleasure on its own. Read more

Good quality product. I have purchased multiple sizes. Good for desk, works well as a mouse pad, protection for coffee table, etc. Easy to wipe clean. Thick enough to lie flat without shifting around and plenty of colors to choose from. Read more

Stays in place, unlike other desk mats. I've ruined the top of my work desk using double sided tape to keep my old desk mat in place and it still moved around. No problem using this as a mouse pad also, infrared light on bottom of mouse does not glitch when used on this mat. Like that there are different sizes - I was able to purchase one that fit my desk side to side and covers the damage from the double sided tape for the old mat. Overall, would def recommend. Oh, and when writing on paper on top of this mat, it has a soft feel but doesn't dent the mat. Read more

Dateline: A Desk Surface, Under the Solitary Glare of a Monitor, 4:18 AM. The desk. A slab of hard, unforgiving wood. A barren wilderness, scarred by the rings of forgotten coffee mugs and the frantic scratching of lesser mice. It is a cold, hard surface upon which you are expected to wage your daily war of productivity. But a man needs a proper foundation. A clean, controlled territory. A stage for the work. Enter the YSAGi Leather Desk Protector. It arrives, not in a clunky box, but rolled in a neat, tidy tube, a scroll bearing a promise of a better workspace. You unroll it across the wooden expanse, and this is the first moment of truth for any desk mat. You expect it to fight you, to curl back on itself with a stubborn, pig-headed memory of being rolled. But this one does not. It lays down, flat and immediate, with only the slightest, most temporary protest at its edges. It has come here to work, not to argue. The transformation is instantaneous. The old, hard world is gone, paved over by a vast, 35-inch expanse of cool, dark blue PU leather. Your entire workspace is now unified, a single, contiguous surface. The keyboard has a place. The mouse has a new kingdom to roam. Your elbows and wrists are granted a sweet, merciful release from the hard, unforgiving wood. It provides a subtle, almost imperceptible cushion that, over the course of a long, frantic night of typing, makes all the difference. The surface is smooth, with a fine, leathery texture that feels surprisingly premium for the pittance you paid for it. The mouse glides across it with a newfound sense of purpose. Spills are no longer a catastrophe that threatens to stain the wood; they are a minor inconvenience to be wiped away with a simple cloth. It keeps the desk clean, it keeps the work contained, and it feels damn good doing it. This is not a complicated piece of technology. It is a simple, elegant solution to a simple, elegant problem. It’s an affordable, well-packaged, and beautifully executed slab of civility for your desk. It turns a chaotic, hard-edged wilderness into a smooth, comfortable, and unified command center. It’s a pretty decent desk mat, which, in the strange and often disappointing world of office accessories, is about the highest praise you can give. It is, in short, a complete and total success.

I have had the mat for a couple months and so far it is durable and aesthetically pleasing (and comes in many colors). It is quite thin so the edge is starting to curl up a little bit instead of staying flat, as opposed to if it was a heavier material or thicker. Read more

Beautiful leather! I recently got myself a work from home job and have been building my home office up. I love this a lot more than a mouse pad. With my mouse pad, it seemed to always scroll off the pad. If never happens with this. It’s a beautiful color and it laid flat really fast. Maybe about 30 minutes I had something on top the edges but I’m certain it would’ve been flat on its own. It feels like quality and I think it’ll fit right in with a “zen” office space. Read more

I love this color — it looks even better in person. It covers my desk smoothly and gives my workspace a clean, polished look. The surface feels nice to write on and works great with my mouse. Definitely a small upgrade that makes a big difference. Read more
