Digital camera reviews of Belkin Wave Rest Gel-Filled Cushion Wrist Pad (Black)
Digital camera Review: Helps wrists. It's well worth it.
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this because my wrists hurt after being so long on the computer. It helped a lot. Didn't fix everything, but it is worth it. It looks and feels nice too. I would recommend it.Digital camera Review: I like it! Needs a bit of work, but I like it.
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.
Digital camera Review: I never even recieved it!
Summary: 1 Stars
I ordered this product and never recieved it. THEN, when I called to find out what happened I was given the runaround and I had to call at LEAST 15 time-no exaaggeration. Office Depot told me to call Amazon told me to call Ups told me to call Office Depot and so on.
I STILL never recieved my order and I at least got my money back after over a month of bull.
Digital camera Review: It doesn't hold up to elbow abuse
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this product to replace my previous gel wrist rest that had finally worn out after many months of use. This pad wasn't as good as I hoped it to be. First, the product did not give off a bad odor when I removed it from the box, as others have stated. But the gel is very firm and not very comfortable. I really wanted it to feel like gel, but instead it feels like a dry sponge. I primarily use wrist rests for my elbow. Within two days, I already had a permanent indentation where my elbow commonly rests. After a month of use, I have permanent places on the rest where it has bottomed out all the way. To be fair, it is a wrist rest, so I guess it isn't designed for elbows. The positives are that the neoprene outside is sturdy and the edges seem to hold well (so far). But if you are looking for a gel rest that feels like soft gel, this isn't the product. I am already looking for a replacement for this one after only a month of use.Digital camera Review: It works
Summary: 5 Stars
It does what its supposed to do and it definitely serves its purpose to support your wrist. The firmness for me is just right, unlike others in the market (I have another one at work to compare it with)which are too soft.
