   TheKensington Wrist Pillow Mouse Pad with Wrist Restis a good product that is best for stationary mousers who do general or detailed work. The main consideration is the relatively small usable surface area due to the placement of the wrist rest. But if you turn the mouse pad at an angle, you can slightly compensate for that and give yourself a larger area to work with.PROS:++ Comfortable wrist rest, softer than most others++ Base provides stable desktop placement++ Surface works well for mousing (I’ve only tried it with laser and optical mice)++ Durability, at least for me, seems to be good relative to other user complaints (6 ++ months at the time of this review)++ Trains you to move your wrist less, likely helping to prevent future repetitive stress injuriesCONS:– Usable surface area is smaller than advertised due to the placement of the wrist rest; turn at an angle to compensate– Won’t likely relieve wrist pain you already have; use a brace and seek medical help if pain persistsDESIGN & USAGEThe shape of this mouse pad and the placement of the wrist rest allows for a very small area to move your mouse. That’s bound to be a deal breaker for many people. But for me, I found that the usable area, while small, was enough to make this effective. More importantly, it forced me to keep my wrist more stationary, reducing pain I used to feel from extended use.The wrist rest is very comfortable. It feels less-firm than most of the rests on alternative products. Depending on your preferences, that can be a good thing or a bad thing. For me, it aids in the comfort of using this product.I can also report that the surface of the mouse and the wrist rest has stayed intact after more than 6 months of use. I don’t know if that’s aided by the fact that all my mice are either laser or optical. Once again, in my case there was no flaking at the edges or anywhere else.PAIN RELIEFUsers who are seeking relief from existing pain caused by repetitive stress or other injuries such as carpel tunnel syndrome or tendinitis should consult a specialist first. While I am no doctor, this seems like it is best designed to prevent one from developing such a problem rather than relieving pain once you already have it. A wrist brace such as theACE Right Wrist Brace with Splint Supportis bound to be more effective at relieving pain over a few weeks by helping you immobilize your wrist long enough for it to heal.CONCLUSIONThis mouse pad is great for those who do a lot of stationary work and want the added comfort and support of a wrist rest. This is not likely to be as good for speedy users who plan to use it during gaming and the like. There are plenty of good composite pads for that purpose. TheRazer Vespula Gaming Mouse Mathas an integrated wrist rest and may be an acceptable compromise for some users. But for the general office user, this is a good product.Enjoy.

   Due to work related injuries and being on the computer half the day my wrist kills me. After comparing prices and reading reviews I ended up purchasing this mouse pad. I was worried that I was being too cheap and should have spent extra money and gotten a mouse pad described for people with wrist issues. Since I got this mouse pad it never hurts while being on the computer. It’s my only moment of relief during the day. It also works with my laser mouse which I was always concerned about since it didn’t state whether or not they were compatible. I am glad I went the cheap route this mouse pad is great. It’s larger than I expected though. I am now considering the keyboard pad for the ultimate experience.

   I not only have one,but had bought 3!! I have RA and use the mouse a lot.So I bought one for my mother’s laptop since she has arthritis as well. Sold! My aunt ordered one immediately too and I ordered 2 more, one for my laptop on the go and another for my PC at home. Since the price is so right and the product so superb I will break down and buy another 2 for my fiance’s homes. I love this product! It cradles my wrists and it’ so comfortable I haven’t had wrist pain in a long time.
