Summary: 4 Stars
I have a Microsoft keyboard with the "wave" design. This wrist rest pad didn't work well with it in the normal position because of the straight edge on that side so I turned it around so the wave on the wrist rest pad was the mirror image of the wave of the keyboard. That worked alright but worked even better when I took a utility knife and cut away the excess fabric on the wave side so there would be a more snug fit between the keyboard and wrist pad. The excess fabric wasn't missed at all and didn't harm the wrist pad, it just had the company's advertising printed on it.
So, this product gets an extra star from me for the flexibility it has to work with both a straight-edged keyboard and a wave-shaped keyboard.
As for the job it does in providing comfort, it stands out there too. Very comfortable, the right amount of support and height and a comfortable padding that molds to your wrists. It has a rubber backing like the sole of your favorite pair of sneakers and a good, heavy weight to it so it doesn't easily slide around or fall off the keyboard tray while in use.
My only complaint with it is the extremely strong chemical smell it has. If you've experienced the smell of those memory foam mattresses or pillows, this has a similarly strong chemical smell. I've had the wrist rest pad for 3 weeks now and it still has a strong smell that you are very aware of while sitting at the computer. It is slowly dissapating, but right now, it still has a stank. If you can endure the stank, you'll like the comfort this product gives.
Customer Review: A good purchase for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
A pretty good product for the price. I have no complaints since I bought it. Gives my wrists good support while typing on my keyboard (in a neutral position, not the raised one) and also gives support to my elbows while i want to plop my head on my hand while reading long documents. So, it has been a hidden savior for my elbows by keeping them off the hard table surface. Other than that, I gave it 4 stars because of the shape. The curve which you can see on the picture is actually facing you, whereas I think it should be facing away from you so that it can fit in the groove of your keyboard between the CTRL key and the arrow buttons so it would be a snugger fit. But it's not at all a disadvantage and I wouldn't use that reason to keep me from ordering this product again. Also, the smell that everyone keeps mentioning about is pretty strong when you open the package, but it dissipated within the hour. So, no other complaints and am very satisfied with it.Customer Review: Good Product

I spend stretchs of 12-15 hours sitting at the pc, and my wrists are frequently tired as a result. This wrist pad does the job quite well. Its a smooth, non-abrasive material and has a streamlined modern look. My only complaint, and its a very mild complaint, is if you pick it up and flex it back and forth even just a bit..by accident or otherwise, you may eventually develop small air bubbles which interrupt its smooth look but don't impact the functionality whatsoever. It might seem a bit pricy but your wrists will thank you.
