I didnโt expect to ever buy a wired USB mouse again, having disposed my last few ones quite a few years ago. But all of a sudden I found myself desperately in need of a friendly-priced, trustworthy mouse as due to the virus Iโm not allowed to go back to the office and pick one up there. This Amazon basic type does what it says on the tin and looks reasonably sturdy. It also has a scrolling middle button.
There are perhaps a few small downsides; first of all, I’m not sure if it’s really an ‘ergonomic’ mouse. It holds perfectly fine, feels fairly light and looks very much like the less expensive Windows mouses from the 1990’s. But I wouldn’t say there are ergonomic benefits as the listing text suggests. Also it has this “Amazon-basics” label printed on top, so that everybody can see that you didn’t want to spend money on your mouse. I would stress that I don’t mind these small issues and they are justified by the very acceptable price. Moreover, for me it was quite a relief that it…

Got myself this for Christmas last year, after my old mouse ‘died’ (no, we don’t have a cat, lol). I have used a mouse with my laptop/s for years, and would now find it difficult and a nuisance to use the touchpad, which in my experience often fails after not too long anyway.
This one is great value, and works fine ‘straight out of the box’ – no fiddling about or tech know-how required. Fits my hand very comfortably.
Thank you ‘Amazon Basics’, I’m happy to recommend.

Ergonomic and health fail.
It hurts to use it. It hurts all the time now.
I have developed chronic wrist pain from this mouse – the problem being that it is just too small to fit in my hand so my hand has to be held awkwardly poised to use it, this has led to a chronic bad wrist pain. On my old mouse my hand sits rested and at the right size – on this one it’s cramped and awkward – it’s completely different.
MOUSE SIZE:
Correct mouse size = your hand rests comfortably and sits over the contours of the mouse.
Incorrect mouse size = your hand has to “poise” over the mouse – this leads to problems with the body.
I’m going to give it a one star as I am going to have to discard the mouse/s and purchase brand new ones of a more normal size, and because who knows how many weeks or months this pain is going to last now. I think that this mouse was designed to be economic and affordable by using minimal materials and at a smaller scale than normal but unfortunately in so doing it has this fatal…

Bought as a gift for my 84 year old friend who likes to surf! After her previous computer mouse started playing up I quickly ordered this mouse and had it delivered direct to her. Its very simple but the shape its very ergonomic and in her words ‘comfortable to use’. She likes the slightly silicone/rubber touch feel that gives some extra grip when in use and reports that it is responsive to her actions. From going to ‘needing a new laptop’ to only needing a new mouse this Amazon Basic’s mouse has fit the brief again for under five pounds!

As a gamer, I eventually break a mouse maybe a little faster than an ordinary user and as I use the PC a lot, sooner as well. Thought, okay, itโs a simple mouse, wonโt be special; I personally was surprised as its contoured shape and size and how well it works. It has worked fine for daily use of many hours, only recently developing a fault and that may be dues to heavy use or a 9 year-old computer which is being replaced AND only in a game with a graphics card not suited for the old PC. However, I did switch it for another one I am using but that connected to my Smart TV and another to this PC and no problems. (Massive clicking (gamers will know what I mean) means I have worn something out but itโs still usable. And to top it all off, I am so pleased with this mouse and because they last a few years only and you should always have a spare mouse to hand, I bought another half dozen or more! Tested they all work and boxed them away for when needed. They cost me ยฃ5 or ยฃ6 and the…
