Review on Nekmit Leather Desk Blotter Pad - 36X20 Inches, Non-Slip, Waterproof Surface For A Classy Workspace by Jose Moran

Yes there are many cheaper options on Ebay for this type of product. Since I do work from home for approximately 20 hours each week the desk is being used quite a bit, so I wanted something that would hold up. I chose this blotter due to the following attributes: ships flat - no issue with curling sides or weighing down corners; stays in place - does not slide; no smell out of the box; nice felt-like bottom surface to protect the desk and keep in place; waterproof and easy to clean; barely visible logo in corner, nice size options, great feel and comfort.I purchased this for my L shaped desk extension side. Being right handed I can use that space to write notes while reading the computer on the "main" desk side; I can also turn my chair to the side extension to use as the desk workspace when needed. The desk I purchased has a built in faux leather inlay on the main desk area that is very nice, but it does not extend down to the desk end (very nice looking though). Since I am never touching the desk surface of the main desk it should never start to wear or fade. I placed the Nekmit blotter right to the closest edge of the desk extension so that my hands and arms will always be on the blotter and will not start to mark up the cherry veneer of the desk. It looks beautiful and so far has met every expectation. So far very nice product that provides a significant enhancement.
