Mouse Compatibility
A few mousepads out there have issues when it comes to which mice can be used on them. While the Heavy shares the same surface material as the QcK+, which was tested with a variety of mice and deemed universally compatible with all mice, we here at GotFrag Hardware just love to put our products through the necessary paces. Just to be safe, the pad was tested with three different optical mice, a laser mouse, and an old ball mouse just for the hell of it. As expected, all of the mice worked flawlessly on the QcK Heavy.


The Bottomline
The QcK Heavy is certainly another option out there for gamers looking for something a bit more unique than the regular QcKs. If you have been searching high and low for a pad with the look and smoothness of the QcK+, with the same mammoth size, along with the thickness to negate any desktop issues/unevenness, then look no further. The QcK Heavy is just as great as the other cloth steelpads. If you are currently using a hard pad, or even the Steelpad 5L, you might want to consider passing this one by. It is really easy to adjust to the soft feel of the pad if you are accustomed to other cloth pads, but making the jump from a hardpad or the dreaded bare desk aka "the r4z woodpad," this pad will be very difficult to switch to.

Pros
+ Size
+ Thickness
+ Smooth surface
+ Uniquely soft feel
Cons
- Size
- Hard to Adapt to from Hard Surfaces
- Price

Rating
8.0 out of 10
Generally, if you have a normal desk surface with no major dents or ditches, a Steelpad QcK+ or QcK will be a better fit. Unless you are extremely serious about gaming, and willing to contribute about two square feet of your desk space to your mousepad; the regular QcK should be more than sufficient. Plus, while the Heavy isn't exactly the bank breaker that the 5L is, it about twice as expensive as the regular QcK.
