Mad Catz R.A.T. 8+ 1000 Gaming Mouse

The pinky rest is amazing. Do reccomend.

I am rewriting my review from 2021, this mouse has been fantastic on all fronts but two, the software and the range and brightness of the lights. Physically it looks good and the material is holding up well, but a toothbrush to clean it is a good idea. Mechanically it's still clicking strong, and the wheels work like new. The software is not bad but I have lost my configs a few times. The lights are dim and dont have the best range of color.

I bought this super expensive RAT not even one year ago. This model was my dream mouse.I cant even describe how dissappointed I was when the mouse wheel clicker (not the scrolling wheel) started to not always react to my input anymore only 1 day after I got it! I got in contact with customer service and they told me it was a software problem. gave me tons of options to fix it. nothing worked. By that time I couldn't return it thru amazon anymore. Then the wheel clicker completely stopped working. all this was within the first 2 months I had this mouse. yesterday- not even a year later another button broke. I am pissed. I cant believe I already have to replace this damn thing in such a short time.If you like the shape of the RAT or the 3 thumb-buttons get a cheaper model. this model is not worth the money.p.s. tried replacing the left thumb attachment with the wider one that came with it. button still doesn't work - that means something with the actual mouse broke.

Cheaply made and not worth it by any means… the only thing that makes it “feel” valuable are the cheap added weights. You can tell that the paint will rub off within a month and it’s that “cheap plastic”

My first R.A.T. purchase was the 7 when it was new. It lasted over 8 years with no issues. Eventually, the left click started to double click when pressed. That mouse, when I bought it, was under $100. This was over $300, and i'm experiencing the double click issue within the first month of owning it. Not at all impressed, and about to send it back

I have had this mouse replaced 3 times. Every single one of them have been broken in the same way.The mouse wheel is insanely sensitive. Light impacts to the mouse will register as scrolling. These impacts can be something as simple as lifting the mouse and placing it back down on the mousepad.This makes gaming completely impossible. While playing the mouse will scroll up and down outside of your control. I have been unable to fix it myself, and customer support never replied to my e-mail, nor did they reply on social medias.

This is ass

this thing is just...bonkers.
