Normally I'd go to r/mousereview for this kind of thing, but fuck that website.

Can anybody recommend me a mouse that isn't going to fuck out inside of a couple years? Was previously using an Ironclaw until the USB port went, replaced it with a Basilisk and the scroll on that one's started to jitter up and down now. I have fairly large hands and tend to use knuckle claw grip. Wireless is a must, builtin battery preferred, but requiring a single AA isn't a dealbreaker. I don't mind heavy, prefer a little weight tbh.

Bro do not get a Razer mouse, I have two Mamba Elites and both their scroll wheels keep jumping up and down when you scroll. My sister's Deathadder Elite's scroll wheel is completely broken and doesn't work.

My Razer mice are perfectly fine. Only issue was the Lancehead TE. They used lower quality switches, which is replaceable for cheap and they upgraded the quality of the switches in newer models. I am very happy.

If you have pets the likely answer is the wheel has hair wrapped around it and is triggering the censor in unexpected ways. I had the same exact issue.
