Ablenet12000005 Bigtrack Trackball by Sammons Preston

my gusband has Parkinsons hand this has made i easier to use the computer

We bought this for my son with fine motor problems because he is doing online schooling now instead of brick and mortar. This has been so great for him. Drag and drop has always been a struggle so much so that I end up having to sit and do it for him. With this mouse he can do all of his work independently. I'm so beyond impressed with the mouse, the quality and the accessibility it offers. Thank you!

My mother is 87yo and has light tremors. Using a regular optical mouse was hard to control. The trackball is much easier for her as are the large right and left mouse buttons. It's slower to use than a standard mouse but she's not fast on the computer anyway so accuracy and reduced frustration win out! Well worth it! Durability I put 4 stars. We haven't had it that long but it seems well built not cheap.

I purchased this for my 86 yr old father who suffers from essential tremor. He was struggling with a regular mouse and was ready to give up on the computer all together. We set up the BigTrack ball and it has made an incredible difference. It stays in place and allows him to move the cursor to where he needs it before pressing one of the buttons (right or left click) at the top. It eliminates the erratic movements and helped Dad regain his confidence in using the computer. I would highly recommend this for anyone who has issues with fine motor skills. My only suggestion to improve, like many other reviewers, would be to make it less childish looking.

Plug and Play, tested on Windows and Linux, work very well :)
