Amazon.com Product Description
The design of the 3M WR310BE Gel Wrist Rest for Keyboard is derived from medical technology. Specifically, the technology behind this comfortable and ergonomically designed wrist rest is based on the gel used in wheelchairs, hospital beds and the fabric from medical tapes and bandages. The firm gel conforms to your wrist as you're typing, but then quickly returns to its original shape. The low-friction non-woven fabric is gentle to the skin, highly conformable and reduces heat and moisture build-up. The gel pad encourages neutral wrist position, and its exclusive gel filling and non-woven fabric provides soothing, comfortable support. The baseplate keeps the wrist rest securely in place on desktops or adjustable keyboard trays as you work.

Customer Reviews

Comfort for the keyboard
I type medical reports for a living, up to 10 hours a day and 7 days a week. Without the wrist rest, my wrists would not be able to hold up. The wrist rest is the perfect size. It stays in place on the desk. The gel continues to be supportive, even after a year of working on it. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because of the back of the wrist rest that lays on the desk has a horrible smell. I can't smell it while typing, only when I pick it up for cleaning. I wish there was the option for half stars - I'd give this 4-1/2 stars.

It would be a great wrist rest if...
...it hadn't started popping open at the seams about 1 week after I got it. Inside, there's icky gooey stuff that spills out. I ducktaped the opening shut, and that did it for a while, but now other parts of the wrist rest are tearing open, so I guess I'll just get a new one. I really didn't use this wrist rest very heavily and I'm surprised and disappointed it fell apart this quickly without heavy use.

Does the job
This is very comfortable and works very well. It's heavy enough that it doesn't move around or push the keyboard, as some of the other types of wrist rests that I've used have done. Yet it's cushiony while sturdy enough to provide support.
