Durability

Fingernails aside, the HYBRID's durability was further tested by subjecting it to abrasive-surfaced mice that either had worn-out feet or were completely feetless.

Also, as a serial Coco-Crunch (breakfast/lunch/dinner) addict myself, I tend to have a lot of them in front of my laptop. That meant leaving the bowl very often on the HYBRID with plenty of chocolate milk stains to boot.

Front shot

Fortunately, cleaning the HYBRID was as simple as a soak in warm water with mild detergent and antiseptic solution added for good measure. Then it is air-dried.

Back shot

Another point worth mentioning is that the HYBRID mouse pad is dust-resistant. Therefore, if you are using a opto-mechanical mouse (@ ball mouse), you will need to spend less time cleaning out lint.
