Review on Amazon Basics Gel Mouse Pad with Wrist Support Rest for Computers by Teresa Diers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Relieved the severe wrist pain I was having with a foam pad.

I bought this to replace the memory foam pad. I've had a gel pad for many years, but I've worn it down to the point where I've left marks on my wrist and forearm from rubbing it. Being a total curmudgeon, I bought the cheapest gasket I could find. After all, a pillow is a pillow, right? After using the new pad for about two days, my wrist started to hurt terribly if I used it for more than a few minutes. It was like the weight of my hand resting on a dull knife. Going back to the gel eased my pain for a few days. I can't recommend it highly enough. Thick memory foam isn't bad for bedding, but that wafer-thin stuff they stuff in shoes and suspenders might very well be a block of steel, for all the benefits it offers when compressed.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
