Glorious Wrist Pad/Rest - Compact - Black - Mechanical Keyboards, Stitched Edges, Ergonomic | 12x4 inches | 25mm/1in Thick (GWR-75) Compact (Black)

In order to explain how I came across this wrist rest it may help to explain the story of what happened to my last one and what led to my dissatisfaction with its level of comfort. It all started on the 136th day of the Season of the Freeze in the year of the Crusade. I was on a 36 hour mud marathon trying to complete a tier so I could go after a Ring of the Dark Eight. I got sidetracked by a quest I knew I shouldn't have undertaken to help a dwarf in need and ended up in the Partroxis where I fell victim to a sinister monster in the Ocean of Volantis. However that is a story too terrible to tell. As I stood up I was suddenly aware of how much my wrists were bothering me. I rubbed them and looked down at my Belkin Wave Rest with disdain. Yes, I thought, it would have to go... I decided to walk to Waffle House since it was 3 am and nothing else was open. I brought along the Belkin thinking I would give it to the Waffle House cashier to use on her register, but that was not to be. As I entered the establishment and wedged my massive girth into a booth I began to peruse the menu. I ordered my usual triple cheeseburger with double hash browns and a pecan waffle. As my waitress left, three teenagers entered the restaurant. They were loud, obnoxious and, unfortunately, decided to saunter their way toward a booth close to the one I was sitting in. As I stirred my coffee, I looked up and saw that the one closest to me was wearing a black Call of Duty t-shirt. At this point, given my annoyance with my aching wrists and lack of sleep due to rendering assistance to that dwarf outside of Andolor I just couldn't keep my mouth shut. I made a comment that maybe he ought to select a booth closer to the front of Waffle House lest he stray outside the mission area. That did it and it was on. The first one turned to me and tried to jump over the booth, but I was too fast for him (I was still under the effects of the sense anger spell I had cast earlier) since I had a feeling he might attack (red aura). I quickly spelled up as I ran down the restaurant past the truckers dining at the counter. The first one was fast on my heels so I circled around and placed an ebony dagger in his back resulting in strange gurgling sounds and a lot of blood. That dagger is only 5d8 on a good day, but my damroll is ridiculous so he went down right away. I uttered the words 'noselacri' and sent a fireball screaming toward the second angry console gamer that singed the truckers' hair as it ripped past the back of their seats at the counter. It caught him right in the torso and, much to my satisfaction, seemed to immolate the CoD shirt that had prompted the altercation. The third one produced an AK12 and was desperately squeezing off rounds trying to hit me, but I think he may have forgotten to turn on auto aim because he wasn't even in the ballpark. As the shell casings skittered and pinged off the black and white tile floor I approached him from behind the counter. I knew I was too low on mana at the moment so spells were out of the question and when I reached for my dagger I realized that I must have left it in the corpse of the first console gamer in the heat of the moment. I pushed the panic out of my brain. No way was I, a level 241 sorcerer, going down at the hands of a CoD gamer at a Waffle House at 3 am. However, I was out of options. I reached around my tunic looking for a mana potion when my hand landed on the Belkin! I leaped over the counter and brought the Wave Rest down with the force of Thor's hammer right on top of the CoD gamer's head. It let out a mighty slap as the wave rest rippled and the gel flew to one side at about Mach 4 causing a sonic concussion inside his head. As he fell to the floor defeated the truckers (sans ponytails now, thanks to my fireball) all jumped up cheering. Then my food came out so I sat down to eat. The cashier let me have my meal free in exchange for the Belkin for her cash register and my elite elimination of three scourges to the gene pool so all was right with the world. When I finished, my hunger and thirst were at max and I had gotten enough experience off those guys to finish up my tier so I packed a bag and set off for Nine Hells to go after my Ring of the Dark Eight. Oh, but not before purchasing a new wrist rest that was more befitting a sorcerer of my skills and experience.TL;DR - was browsing on Amazon for a wrist rest. Liked the one that came with my first WASD keyboard, but their design of gluing a fabric top to a foam bottom causes the fabric to roll up/separate at the top edges. I liked how this one goes all the way down to the rubber bottom and is stitched.

Nice and comfy without being in the way like its not even there

This is a great arm rest for old-guy arms. I spend a considerable amount of time at my desk every day - it's my PC, my entertainment center and my breakfast, lunch and dinner table. So, when I'm managing websites or watching movies/videos, I'm leaning on the Glorious Gaming Full-Size Black Wrist Pad to prevent my arms, especially my elbows, from getting sore and bruised. I've had this "wrist pad" for almost 3 years now and it's still quite comfortable. I have a nasty habit of fiddling with the ends, where the rubber non-skid bottom meets the rigid base, so some of the rubber is peeling away (very slightly). This is very durable, in my opinion, and has held up very well all this time.The ends where my elbows rest when I cross my arms on it has depressed some after nearly 3 years. It's still comfortable though and probably good for at least another year. But I just bought a mouse and am weaning myself off a trackball and I think a mouse wrist rest will help. This Full-Size Wrist Pad, even at 16⅞ actual size (NOT 17.5") won't do double-duty for the mouse and as an armrest, so I came to see if there's a smaller version I can use for my new mouse. There is.After all I've put my Glorious Gaming Wrist Pad through since 2015, all the scrubbing from spilling coffee and food, using it to kill a few bugs and keeping this old man comfortable at his desk, I've come back for more. The price is pretty nice, so I don't hesitate to get a new full-size to go with the new wrist rest for my new mouse. There's really only 2 gripes I have for this product, but neither are bad enough to give it less than 5 stars: the fact that it's advertised as 17.5" when it's actually less than 17... and that damn ugly logo that so many others have complained about. Fact is though, it fits my arms well and I live alone, so it's not like I feel like I am giving them free advertising (although I had originally hoped age would make that logo deteriorate, but it's as durable as the rest of the product).
