I really bought this for the calendar but some of the dates are messed up like on March 3 it had 13 and there was another date that was funky. Overall it gets the job done.I purchased 10 of these for Christmas gifts. When they arrived I noticed three typos, see Jan, Jun, Oct. I'll keep them and we'll get a laugh about it, but if the dates matter to you choose another calendar. The dates are wrong in the picture above so I didn't look at it carefully enough. Lesson learned!It looks nice, but the print is small and the pad is thinner than expected.Many dates have the numbers printed incorrectly, such as a "3" instead of "13", a "9" instead of a "2". Also smells very strongly of chemicals, even just sitting next to you on the deskCould be a little thicker, but good graphics. Very colorful.Great mouse pad that also serves as a yearly calendar!Love these mousepad calendars, wouldn't be without it,get this every yearGreat to have a mouse pad as a calendar!
