Design and Comfort

Pros:

  • "It's very comfortable to use and very light for travel."
  • "It is just the right size for most hands. And it is nice and smooth."
  • "This mouse easily glides over the cloth and recognizes all gown colors as a valid background."
  • "It's full size so it fits even my small hands comfortably."
  • "I want something that fits my large hands well, with the rotary wheel and right and left click buttons. This fit the bill perfectly!"
  • "Form factor wise, it is a pretty medium sized mouse. I have big hands and the mouse fits pretty well within my palm."
  • "It is just the right size for my smaller hands, and is the only mouse that I can use continuously for playing The Sims 4 without fatiguing my wrist and cramping my hands."

Cons:

  • "The curvature is too far forward and it's not comfortable at all."
  • "But my hand is cramping up after extended use and I'll have to replace it."
  • "Not the most comfortable to use for medium-big hands (it's 10,1 cm or 4.3 inches long), and while they're not ergonomic they won't hurt either."
  • "This Logitech mouse is light, and the arch is higher, so for me it's not a good surfing feel."
  • "If you have large hands, don't buy this one."
  • "It also feels small in the hand, and I have normal sized hands for a woman."
  • "Its a basic mouse. Doesn't feel right in my hand though."

Functionality and Performance

Pros:

  • "Because it's wired, no issues with lag."
  • "This mouse is simple plug and play. It works on Windows XP without drivers."
  • "All in all this mouse is a typical basic mouse, works well for general office work and for a game that I play."
  • "I find the Logitech B100 to be the best because of the mouse wheel."
  • "This mouse is all most people need. My old Logitech mouse finally broke after using it for 15 years, so I bought another one!"
  • "I don't do gaming so cannot speak to that but I am pleased in every way with this mouse."
  • "This simple mouse has been my mainstay all along."

Cons:

  • "Unfortunately Logitech mice have a short lifespan."
  • "It's always the wheel that gives out."
  • "Accuracy is poor. The acceleration doesn't 'fine tune' when you are making small movements."
  • "Unfortunately this mouse associates the logitech name with something worse than any no-name mouse I've used prior."
  • "The middle mouse button sometimes double clicks, but it is not that big of a problem."
  • "The mouse wheel may be the worst I've ever seen: It's uncomfortable to scroll, it's uncomfortable to click, and it's unreliable on scroll sensitivity."
  • "The scroll wheel is by far the worst of it."

Reliability and Durability

Pros:

  • "Every piece of Logitech I've ever had is still working after all these years."
  • "This little thing works really good."
  • "I've had this mouse for about 4 years now, and this thing is still holding up."
  • "I've been using it for a while now, and it is reliable and comfortable to use."
  • "I'm not gentle with my computer mouse, and yet despite constant yanking and slamming, damn thing didn't break on me for quite the long time."
  • "Very good mouse. So good I've got 4 spares."
  • "It's accurate, and has held up well to use from our kids and my wife."

Cons:

  • "After taking it apart I discovered that a spring had slipped off its plastic mount. I eventually got it back in position."
  • "Out of nowhere, suddenly, the mouse cursor just spazzes all over the screen..."
  • "I've tried it in multiple USB ports and every time, it just decides to jump around and rapidly send out clicking signals for a single click, or refuse to sustain a long click."
  • "After just having this mouse for 4 months, it started double clicking on the left mouse click."
  • "Unfortunately, the personal mouse didn't last long -- after just under two years of daily use, it started registering every click on the primary button as a double click."
  • "Mouse is not even a 3 month old and is giving me issues."
  • "I have had this mouse for a little over a year. While most of that time I haven't had any complaints, recently it has begun double clicking."

Design and Aesthetics

Pros:

  • "The mouse itself has a reasonably long cord and was able to plug into the back of a computer and has enough length to place it at the opposite edge of a standard workstation desk."
  • "This is your basic USB wired mouse. Take it out of the box plug it in to your usb jack and off you go."
  • "A nice and basic mouse that just works and feels good in my hand."
  • "Great mouse, corded, and has 2 buttons and a roll wheel that has a small amount of feedback."
  • "The scroll wheel has very little resistance which means I can use it for a long time without index finger fatigue."
  • "I love the shape; I love the size."
  • "The minimal design is exactly what I want, left and right buttons, with the center scroll wheel also usable as the 3rd button. Nothing else to accidentally bump."

Cons:

  • "The wired mouse makes the desk look messy with the too long wire always in the way, but it's reliability makes it worth it."
  • "The cord is kind of long for its purpose and gets in the way at times."
  • "The mouse cord is a little too long, but I don't mind."
  • "The downside of the mouse is a scroll wheel. Compare to the Amazon one, the scroll button is smaller, lighter, and rougher to scroll."
  • "The noise when clicking is much much louder than any mouse I have used."
  • "The scroll wheel itself feels and sounds quite rubbery."
  • "The width and length shown are much larger than the actual mouse."

Usability and Compatibility

Pros:

  • "I'm on my laptop and working 10+ hours a day and this mouse just makes my life a bit easier."
  • "But they are super cheap and work fine for most everything."
  • "I got sick of the bluetooth mouses. The batteries, the connection problems."
  • "I attached this on a KVM switch, where a wireless mouse isn't appropriate."
  • "It works very well and it will have no problem working on a Mac or macbook."
  • "I am using this on a Mac, so just letting you know it is Mac compatible, or also for use on a PC in Windows."
  • "It’s very comfortable to use and works on my couch arm during WFH."

Cons:

  • "Don’t use for macNothing but problems. Controlling the screen and buttonsCouldn’t find a way to program the buttons s a no no response from the company."
  • "Be aware that if your desk is glass you need a mouse pad (I use a folder) since this is an optical mouse--it needs something under it to bounce light back."
  • "I did a search for a WIRELESS mouse... Is it really too much to ask that the search engine actually gives you results based on what you ask for?"
  • "It was plainly stated to work for usb or PS/2 in the description but it clearly does not work with the PS/2 emulation which is needed for my 4 PC KVM setup."
  • "The hardware works fine (though only time will tell whether it lasts). But the mouse reverts to its default speed at bootup."
  • "It started acting up and dismounting itself from my computer around June 1, 2023, and now it won't be recognized by either of my PCs."
  • "I can't remember now if this arrived broken or simply broke within the first few weeks."
