Does the scroll wheel spin freely or does it 'ratchet' when used? Thanks!

It does have a rachet feel which is very light, it is not an issue for me. Does not affect my scrolling.

It has a ratchet movement although it is very subtle. If you press down it rolls freely.

The scroll wheel doesn't spin freely. It "clicks" or "ratchets" into the next position on the wheel, but it does so extremely smoothly. I have very little issue with either kind of mouse you have referred to, but I haven't felt much of a difference between this and a free spinner if you will. You may have stronger feelings on the matter, of course.

There is no scroll wheel. The top of the mouse acts like a track pad so you click and hold and move another finger to operate it. It is kind of a track pad/mouse hybrid. I love it but it may not work quite so well for you if the scroll wheel is essential.

The scroll wheel has a number of functions: 1. Rotate wheel to scroll up-down - works fine 2. Moving the wheel left/right (clicks left/right) to scroll left/right - works fine 3. Pressing down (click down) - this is the tricky operation because if you don't press directly downwards there is a good chance you will inadvertently activate the left/right scroll feature. The required down force is also somewhat more than the needed for the other buttons. I think that this is the nature of this mouse.

No issue with the scroll wheel. Try taking battery out and then re-inserting.

It physically clicks. Scrolling is also a little iffy. I've wished for a wheel at times.

No, it doesn't. It has some workarounds, but it won't be as fast as or feel like it does with a mouse with a scroll wheel.

yup, scrolling is pretty choppy.. no fixes that i have found yet - i now am used to not scrolling with the scroll wheel - great for ergonomics - have had no pain in the arm / wrist since i have it ..

Nope. The mouse wheel is quite stiff, in a solid feeling way. it does not spin freely.

Yes. The wheel feels very solid and hits a stop every scroll you do. It also clicks in as a button as well. But after lots of usage of the scroll wheel, it starts to lose that clicky feeling when scrolling. At first it's a very hard scroll but it becomes softer after a while.

It doesn't just spin. Its that "ratchety" turn, like each turn clicks into s gear, but it doesn't audibly click. Hope that helped.

The scroll wheel does have left/right functionality. By default it's "scroll left" and "scroll right" (forward/back are mapped the the buttons by your thumb by default), but you can program them to do whatever you want.

This wired one has no scroll wheel, but the wireless version of this item does. and works well.

I purchased the mouse for my son. He doesn't seem to be having trouble with it. I've used it and it doesn't wobble. I don't know about the side to side scrolling.I don't believe the wheel tilts.

I'm not sure what you mean but the scroll function works well. When you use the scroll, it works up until you're finished scrolling real time and it doesn't keep going after you've finished scrolling. I like this mouse so much that I bought one for mobile travel use as I hate using a small travel size. I highly recommend this product and I think I'll actually purchase a backup unit as well.

It's toggle-able between smooth and click scroll. Click scroll may be loose depending on your preference. Seems fine for me.

Owner since Jan. 2011, the scroll wheel works beautifully, I have/ had no problem with the mouse yet. The wheel also has rubber padding around it, feels great, and even after all the gaming usage. Hope it helps.

It has both. There's a toggle switch to change between "click scroll" and "free scroll."
