RollerMouse Pro3

So glad I spent the money on this, it has so far passed any/all expectations I had for it and I don’t know how I ever lived without it! I am hoping it lasts for a good long time because of how much I spent on it and because I suspect I will need to buy another one if this one ever dies. The operation is so smooth and I learned how to use it in one day, but I was already using a trackball so it was probably a little easier for me. The only thing I can think of that would make it better is if it were wireless but even still I have no complaints about the wire, I just taped it down to my keyboard tray so it doesn’t get damaged.

UPDATE 12/2025 The roller mouse is still working wonderfully and the pain I mentioned in my original review has not returned. I am Extremely happy with this purchase - I highly recommend it and if this one ever stops working, I will buy another. Original Review: My shoulder wrist and forearm pain are gone! I regularly use two large monitors plus my laptop screen, moving the cursor across all of them is easy, once you hit the end of scroll bar if you haven’t made it to the desired area, there is a spring type of thing. Just push into the spring and the cursor resets and continues moving as needed. I was hesitant about getting the roller mouse because 1) I wasn’t sure how easy multiple monitors would be, it’s a snap and nothing to worry about. 2) I had used an ergonomic split keyboard for 15+ years, so I was concerned about not being able to use the older mouse with that style of keyboard. I decided to give it a try and now use a regular keyboard with no wrist pain as of yet. I’ve been using the roller mouse for a couple of months now. 3) The price had me think long and hard about it; but I decided to give it a try through Amazon because it’s easy to return if it didn’t work out, and because if it did work it’s much cheaper than doctor visits, physical therapy or surgery. I’m extremely happy to say I have not needed to go to the doctor for the pains I had and I no longer need to eat ibuprofen like candy. The only regret is that I didn’t find the roller mouse a couple of years ago. I use the number pad on the keyboard extensively, so I chose the Pro3, it’s perfect.

For years, working with a computer meant removing your hand from the keyboard to the mouse (most times at least 12 inches away) back and forth a zillion times. This Rollermouse solved that hassle. The mouse, scroll wheel, right & left click, along with special copy & paste buttons and a double click button ....All within a finger's reach without removing my hands from the wrist pad. Plus the support is awesome. I updated my MacOS to BigSur 11.4 and the scroll wheel stopped working. I contacted Contour Support and they had a new driver created in a day or so that fixed the problem.

Developed shoulder mouse injury and radial nerve pain due to years of using regular mouse. On my third week of using this roller mouse and my shoulder pain had subsided. Easy to use. No more gripping! Really like the roller bar , feels like butter. The only thing is that my ergonomic keyboard did not fit well with this mouse . It is curved with hand rest built in so it took alot of space and had to reach up to type . So had to revert back to regular keyboard. Which is fine for now since my job is 90% mouse dependent. Another thing are the pads . They are a bit stiff although I am very picky about that. Regular mouse pads hurts after long use so I usually make my own with soft materials. For this roller mouse pads, it’s built in . Wish they made it softer. Otherwise, it’s a good investment. Very expensive but outweighs long term injury! Highly recommend if you have shoulder mouse and nerve pain/injury.

I bought this for video and audio editing but it didn't work well for the task. What the RollerMouse Pro3 really works well for is typing and general computer use. It's so much faster than using a mouse. I've used mine enough the left button is getting worn but it's still super comfortable and I can type for hours with greater speed and my hands and wrists don't hurt. It's a little pricey but if you value your time and want to type faster, it's fantastic.

I can’t sing the praises of this mouse enough. I’ve been using one for years. This is my second one. The other one, one key malfunctioned after a decade, and instead of fixing it, I opted for a new one. Not only does this mouse keep you from getting carpal tunnel, it’s faster because your hands stay in the same area as the keyboard. I started using this to avoid some early signs of carpal (my mom and grandmother and aunt all had it and had the surgery). After just a week of using this mouse, all signs of carpal tunnel disappeared and It has never returned since the early 2000s. This mouse has the added benefit of keeping people off your computer at home and work. Most people are confused by it and stay away. Worth every penny!!!

I wanted to love the RollerMouse Pro 3, I really did as I have problems with my shoulder. I expected a learning curve, but because of some technical issues with the RollerMousePro 3, it wasn't for me. Unfortunately, there is a technical problem with the RollerMouse. I have a 27" monitor and immediately found I had trouble getting the cursor to the edges of my monitor. I found that if I slid the roller bar back and forth several times and "bounced" the cursor toward the edges of my screen the cursor would finally move to the edge. I returned it thinking it was defective. The second one did the same thing, so I contacted Contour. Their "fix" was to increase the cursor speed, which is a button just above the left and right mouse buttons. A couple of things happened when I did that. (1) Increasing the speed of the cursor required me to have VERY steady hands making it impossible for me to put the cursor in a specific spot. (2) Their "fix" only lasted for a little while as I'm now having to "bounce" the roller bar several times again to get to the edges of the screen. The idea of the RollerMouse is great, but I'd say they need to do more work to get this ready for the market.

I love the way it moves the cursor and scrolls. The long rollerbar has a wide range of motion and it's easy and fun to use. the clicks of the buttons are smooth and it's a thoughtful product. Ultimately I did not prefer two things that may not bother you: (a) The solution to the inevitable "end of range" issue, and (b) the height relative to my keyboard. ((a)) The rollerbar runs out of room on the left and right. It's not infinite. When it runs out, you push an extra click to the right or left (using the rollerbar), and the cursor jumps to the far-right or far-left of screen. Not my preference but probably other less difficult folks would learn to use that. ((b)) Secondly, the housing shielding the rollerbar is rather high. This is kind of essential, that it have a housing to hold the rollerbar. But I bumped into it when typing certain keys low on my keyboard. I tried to raise up the keyboard to avoid this, but then I had the opposite problem: Rollerbar was now lower than the keyboard and hard to use. So, again, probably a learning curve that you can get used to with habit and practice. I just preferred to go back to a freestanding touchpad peripheral. The above really is a good product. Just giving you the skinny. Other adjustments they offer (click firmness, keyboard height arms, key programming which I didn't get to) are all well-done. Cursor moves like a dream. The rolling and scrolling were delicious. Just expect a bit of learning on these small features and you'll be golden.

It's expensive, but with every dollar. My wrist pain is gone. This roller mouse is the premium kind. Very comfortable.

It's not a case of whether I like this product or not. The simple fact is that this has become a must accessory for me that I cannot live without. As a professional software developer of over 25 years using a keyboard and mouse constantly is key to making a living. Over the years I have developed various aches and pains in my hands that can be debilitating at times. The simple act of taking your fingers off the keys and rotating your hand to the mouse is an unnatural movement and one that was causing me a lot of discomfort. I have found it worse when I'm using a full size keyboard with a full numerical keypad etc and the mouse is further offset to my right. I have tried various ergonomic mice over the years, the best on the market, and none have quite worked for me as well as the rollermouse. The rollermouse sits underneath my keyboard and provides a comfortable palm rest. To move the cursor most of the time I simply stretch my right thumb down to the rollermouse and that's usually enough to most of the time to manoeuvre the cursor to where I want to go. A mouse click can also be simulated by pressing down on the rolling bar also. If needed there are dedicated buttons for clicking/selecting also. There is a trade off in the sense that the control is less accurate that a conventional mouse, however over time you do become used to it more and more. Also the pointer reaches the edge of the screen and the bar has been moved all the way to the end. At this point if you keep trying to move the roller it will eventually re-adjust and let you keep moving the pointer in that direction and this is initially a little jarring. I don't know how robust this product will be. It is collecting debris etc from my dirty hands over time etc as I eat lunch at my desk etc and probably don't have the best hygiene :). I have read however that it is possible to take it apart to clean it. Perhaps occasionally I should use a wet wipe and wipe down the 70% of the bar that is exposed. I will conclude by saying that it's a considerable investment, however I won't be buying another mouse and regardless of how long this lasts I will be buying another because this has become a natural, pain free way to interact with my machine 8 hours a day 5 days a week. My mice are now tucked away in my desk and I have no intention of bringing them back into action anytime soon. Well worth the money! I'm interested in trailing the mobile version at some point when funds allow!

Ich bin Fan, diese ist bereits meine 2. Rollermaus. Arm und/oder Schulterschmerzen kommen dank dieser nicht mehr vor. Diese ergonomische Maus sollte es auf Krankenschein geben.

Tout d'abord, je précise que le modèle que j'ai acheté était en occasion, à un prix très très très bas par rapport au modèle neuf. C'est pour cela que je laisse les 5 étoiles, bien qu'il n'ait pas été précisé que les rehausseurs de clavier n'étaient pas fournis. J'ai été un peu déçue au départ que le dispositif soit incomplet, mais cette roller-mouse est tellement pratique et a si bien réussi à faire disparaître les douleurs et tensions que j'avais au bras droit en raison d'une mauvaise posture que ce que j'imaginais pouvoir être un inconvénient a bien vite été oublié. Cela fonctionne très bien comme ça et si besoin, je trouverai bien un système pour rehausser le clavier par mes propres moyens ! La prise en main est très facile et rapide, le confort est incomparable, bref je recommande sans réserve cette souris !

En favorit - jag har blivit av med mina besvär efter att jag började använda denna.
