Reviews and awards for SteelSeries 5L:
English review by GotFrag (Rating: 9/10 - Editors Pick Award)
"There really aren't many negative things to say about this product. SteelPad did their homework and are about to release a really nice product. I truly enjoyed my experience with this mouse pad and recommend it as a GotFrag Hardware MUST HAVE."
English review by Phoronix (Rating: 9/10 - Editor's Choice Award)
"Its unique five-layer design is indeed a result of excellent craftsmanship from the company, and they had certainly accomplished their mission of deriving a mouse pad that brings fourth the best traits from cloth and plastic mouse pads for gamers."
English review by Overclockers Club (Rating: OCC Recommended Award)
"Throughout the testing, the SteelPad 5L provided a flawlessly smooth and even surface, and barely made any noise while moving the mouse. The non-slip layer on the bottom of the mousepad really gripped to the desk. When I tried to move it laterally across the desk, it felt like I was trying to push a full box of printer-paper, that's how well it works!"
English review by Gamezone (Rating: 8.5/10)
"Personally I do not like using mouse pads, I think they are a thing of the past, especially since my laser mouse is extremely accurate, but I know many people out there enjoy and rely on them everyday. The SteelPad 5L is a really sturdy and nice mouse pad that will help you out during intense gaming sessions especially thanks to the rubber at the bottom that keeps it in place. So if you are in the market for one then check this one out."
English review by Tipmonkies (Rating: 10/10 - Editors Choice Award)
"It not only works for optical, but laser mice as well, and it doesn't matter if you're a straight gamer, or designer because it works well for anything. This should be a definite buy for any gamer or designer who needs a new pad with tons of space. The SteelPad 5L gets a 10 out of a 10, and Editors Choice Award."
English review by Insanely Great Mac
"If you go to a gaming convention, there are a few things you can count on, and one them is that nearly every gamer will be using a SteelPad—it's a category killer."
English review by TechPowerUp.com (Rating: 9.5/10 - Recommended Award)
"This is a quite expensive mat, it costs about $39.99, but I definitely feel that it is worth every dollar you spend on it, and besides if you already spent a lot of money on a high quality mouse you might as well spend just that little extra in order to get one of the best gamer combinations on the market."
English review at Oz Case Modz (Rating: 10/10 - OCM Approved Award)
"After using this pad for a week I will not be giving it up anytime soon. I could not be happier with this pad, it is perfect in every way! I will be using this mousepad until mouses are made obsolete! I recommend this pad to anyone fom the serious gamer to the office worker, to the simple home internet user, it is great for all round use!"
English review at CyberwizardPit (Rating: 9.4/10 - Editors' Choice Award)
"The release of the SteelPad 5L is a definite booster for anyone who wants the feel of a cloth mousepad but with the durability of a synthetic substance."
