    Scroll wheel degrades quickly

    The scroll wheel degraded very quickly. Within months it was scrolling "two steps forward and one step back". For the price it is hard to complain, but given how quickly it becomes trash it just isn't worth it.

    Seens to have a lot of connection issues. It takes up to 10 mins to pair or for tge computer to sense that there’s a mouse. And that’s with all the computers I’ve tested

    I do not like this mouse at all! It doesn't "navigate" as well as my logitech so it went straight into the donation pile. Maybe someone will like it but I should have spent the little extra for the better mouse.

    Thought I was going to need this when I purchased my new laptop but it wasn’t needed. Hard for me to connect so I stuck it in a drawer for a later date. Feels cheaply made as well

    Works OK , however middle roller is kind of hard to press... I think Microsoft or Logitech is much better quality. I will not buy this mouse again.

    The mouse kept freezing up. Had to keep click to get it to work. Now, even though the light was on, stopped working altogether. Put in a new battery and nothing. Had it 2 months and now have ordered a new mouse, not Best Buy Essentials. Live and learn!

    Was missing the Nano receiver plug for a laptop. Had to fight for a shipping label to send it back. I live 2 hours from the closest store and can’t get to one over 3 mountain passes in this winter storm
