This is a great series we need more of this type

Good video. Thanks for sharing. I have the Knodel at work and like it. Still undecided for my home desk. Researching Orbitkey and leather options.

Maaaaan this is the exact video I was looking for. You helped me a lot since I'm a dev but also a gamer oftentimes and, by watching this video I've decided to go for the PU ones. Many thanks!!!

hey thanks for the video, which pu bad is overall the best? also did they have branding on them? thanks

Very helpful, thanks

Could you do video on chair mats plz? Mine always gets divets that the chair can't move out of. And the hard glass ones are expensive. There are also acrylic ones are almost like glass but cheaper?

Thanks for this review. Often wondered how those pads listed on Amazon would play out IRL usage, but no one ever really discusses them. I think this has to be the most critical review of the Grovemade pad I have seen (ever)! To my recollection, everyone usually raves about it but no has ever actually delved into its "durability" for the price and I definitely appreciate the contrast in review at the opposite end of the spectrum in price.

Glad you enjoyed the vid. Honesty always wins out! The Grovemade sure looks nice, but it has some major problems. - RG

Because they get it free. Nearly every set up i see has Grovemade. And a lot of them don't even mention price much less anything else.

You'll find less honest opinions because content creators want the money that they get from sponsors over really providing honest content for the viewer. Basically this channel is great so make sure you're subbed :D

bought the nodal in black.. not bad. Just got my Vari electric desk which I love, and threw out my L shaped SWH desk. Ordered a desk shelf and monitor arms, coming later this week. But I had a logitech mat, and it is good, this other nodal is good but I am not sujre if I will keep it or use a different one. I was considering the grovemade based on all these reviews, but glad you mentioned what you did about it. thnx

The Reviews we need

Could you please share the keycaps link for the keychrone white and silver.

How come you didn’t try the orbitkey?? It’s one of the most popular, I’m really curious how that compares since it is a mix between felt and leather

This was a good helpful video, thanks. Your audio in this video could have been better. I could hear a classic analog hum in the background.

which is the best kind of desk mat to reduce vibration transfer from the keyboard to the desk ?

Are there any other woolmats other than grovemade?

What’s the white keyboard in the video? It looks nice

can you share the make/model of your keyboard?

After watching your video, I went and bought the Gallaway desk pad and I got a cheap non-branded mat instead that doesn't look like Galloway + it smell awful and very strong !

What's the keycaps

Can you guys please review the best desk footrests?

I used to use this mini ottomon. Until I lost it, now I use a shoe box haha.

In Malaysia, the PU pad was sold for 2-4 bucks. Also with stitching.

can share a link to a fellow malaysian here?😅

Some of these mats might aswell just go to Joan’s fabrics and make your own. Btw it you have rolling up edgers on a gaming mat just put an ice cube on it for a bit and it should uncurl edges

Hey is there anyway we could enter to win one of the pads you rated? I recently burned / melted part of mine while soldering something back together and dropped my torch.

Orbitkey makes very good desk pads.

42 inch monitor, the flat one?

The only XL mouse pad I buy is the Corsair brand. it's made to age well.

I expect the Corsair would test very similar to the KTRIO gaming pad. I'll have to purchase the Corsair and test it out. It's always nice to go with a brand you recognize. - RG

Thx! I just ordered one!

I bought the Gallaway mat once and received an aliexpress version. I thought it was a mistake so I returned the item and reorder it, only to receive yet another cheap aliexpress mouse pad. The mat smells strong and really bad, crease marks don't come off. It's obvious that they're using an old product appreciated for its good quality, to sell a different, less expensive item of very inferior quality.

Linus tech tips mouse pad is great value for 40 dollars and I hear gamers nexus is good

How about a taste test

why

Why do I need a desk pad?

$160 felt pad ☠

Grovemade is so overpriced. But its promoted so much because everyone on you getting their products for free.

Just get the LTT deskpad... The best one I've had so far... For us Europeans it is expensive, but for Americans is not that expensive....
