A:AnswerDesk pad is just shy of 12" in depth and just shy of 27" in width. Keyboard and mouse sit on it, leaving a lot of room to move the mouse around.
A:AnswerYes, you coulld place your laptop on it and it won't slide anywhere and then use the mat for your mouse pad too. I believe my Logitech mat actually enchances the looks of my work spece. A very worthy purchase and addition to your desk space, Bev.
