Back in the day laptops were still a relative novelty and computer rooms were a thing. If you didn’t have a mouse pad were you really working? All jokes aside, while mouse pads and desktops are still around, the desk pad is an even better option nowadays. Desk pads also double as mouse pads, are longer than mouse pads, and protect your laptops/computers from scratches and wear and tear. We’ve compiled a list of the seven best desk pads of 2022 that’ll amplify your work from home office to the next level.
If you’re in a hurry, here are our top 3 quick picks for the Best Desk Pads of 2022
Size:
How long is the desk pad? Does it actually fit your desk or is it too long/short? Is it a double-sided desk pad? Can you put your laptop and other items on the desk pad?
Durability:
What is the desk pad made from? Is it easy to clean if any spills occur with your work side coffee? Does the desk pad stay stable as you work/surf the net? Is it waterproof? Is it non-slip?
Price/Ratings:
Is the desk pad decently priced? Is it well-reviewed? (Typically a good benchmark is to compare the ratio of good reviews to bad.)
This beauty is one of those items that make you do a double take and ask, “Why haven’t I bought this before?” Note that the Eminta desk pad is double sided, and it’s also water resistant, heat resistant, and easy to clean. This desk pad comes in a variety of colors, from a standard black, to green/blue, purple/pink and more. This desk pad also comes in two lengths: 23.6 inches by 13.8 inches and 31.5 inches by 15.7 inches.
The Aothia desk pad comes in three different sizes (23.6 by 13.7 inches, 31.5 by 15.7 inches, and 36 by 17 inches.) This is a climate pledge friendly product that comes in a variety of colors, as shown in the above photo, is waterproof and made with that same high quality PU leather and a non-slip design. The Aothia leather desk pad comes with a one year warranty. The ratings on this desk pad are astronomical, with a 4.7 star rating based on 27,976 global reviews. Out of those ratings, 23,357 reviews are five stars.
This desk pad is waterproof, oil-proof, and is also dual-sided. You can get the Ysagi desk pad in a variety of colors, from grey to pink and even pistachio.

The Ysagi desk pad has a 4.7 star rating based on an average of a whopping 25,599 global ratings.
Now, wouldn’t this make for a great Father’s Day present? The sleek leather look is perfect for the hardworking dad or anyone in your life that wants to enhance the look of their workspace office. The Gallaway leather desk pad is also made with that top quality PU leather, and comes in one size: 36 by 17 inches. Another neat aspect of this desk pad is that it comes with a lifetime replacement warranty for piece of mind after you make your purchase.
Over ten colors, high quality PU leather (sensing a pattern in desk pad materials here?) and three different size choices, from the smaller 24 by 14 inches to the large 36 by 17 inches. The Towwi PU leather desk pad is waterproof, is packaged in an environmental protection packaging box, and is dual sided. This desk pad comes with a strap that matches the same color of the desk pad to make travel with the desk pad a breeze.

The Afritee desk pad comes in an assortment of pretty and soft shades, like the rose pink/silver combo, or the light green/greenish blue combo. Yes, this desk pad is also made from PU leather (note: PU leather is NOT real leather) and as a result, this desk pad is also waterproof, durable and helps protect your desk from spills and scratches. The Afritee desk pad comes with a one year warranty, so you can purchase this product with some peace of mind.
Rounding out our top seven list is the Knodel office desk pad. This desk pad is one hundred percent waterproof and oil proof, and comes in three different sizes (23.6 by 13.8 inches, 31.5 by 15.7 inches, and 35.4 by 17 inches.) The Knodel desk pad is also dual sided, and comes in eight different colors, from a standard black to pink to purple to brown, light green and more. Another nice bonus for the Knodel desk pad is that it comes with a one year warranty as well. This is another desk pad that won’t make your wallet cry for mercy: all three sizes are still priced under twenty dollars.
So a lot of these desk pads had a lot in common. PU leather (again, remember that PU leather is NOT real leather), dual sides, multiple colors, and decent pricing among other factors. The reviews are really a great way to determine which desk pad to purchase among this list. While all seven options are great choices, looking at the reviews will make it easier for you to determine which desk pad best suits your needs.
And remember to pick the right size! The desk pad in all actuality is like the mouse pad’s older sibling, bigger, able to accommodate more items, and generally a great addition to an office space. These items are all supposed to be about making life a bit easier, and hopefully one of these desk pads will help in enhancing a workspace area.
We hope you enjoy these products! But keep in mind, Grit Daily might take a small commission on the items recommended here—but that doesn’t mean we don’t believe in them. We only recommend products that we would buy or use ourselves, so don’t be wary of our suggestions.
