Product Review: 3M Gel Wrist Rest for Keyboard

As someone who spends a lot of time typing, I’m always looking for ways to prevent wrist and hand strain. That’s why I was excited to try the 3M Gel Wrist Rest for Keyboard in blue (WR310BE). After using it for a few weeks, here’s my review.

First off, the wrist rest itself is a good size. It fits well in front of my keyboard and covers the area where my hands rest as I type. The gel material is cushiony-soft, which is great for preventing discomfort. After a long day of typing, my wrists and hands definitely feel less strained than they do without the wrist rest.

The fabric on the wrist rest is non-irritating and non-chaffing – another plus for those of us who type for hours on end. Plus, it’s easy to clean. I spilled some coffee on it one day and was able to wipe it off with a damp cloth without any trouble.

The non-skid base of the wrist rest works well, too. It grips my desk securely so that the wrist rest doesn’t slide around while I’m typing.

In terms of design, the blue color is a nice touch. It’s a contemporary shade that adds a pop of color to my workspace without being too distracting. The sleek design would fit in well with any desk setup.

Now, onto the downsides. As I mentioned earlier, the gel material is cushiony-soft – which is great for preventing discomfort – but it also means that the wrist rest doesn’t offer a lot of support. If you’re someone who needs a lot of support for your wrists/hands, this may not be the wrist rest for you.

Additionally, I noticed that the wrist rest tends to pick up dirt and dust pretty easily. I have to wipe it down every few days to keep it looking clean.

Lastly, the customer reviews for this product are mixed. According to the product information, the 3M Gel Wrist Rest for Keyboard has a 3.3-star rating out of 5 stars from 23 reviews. Some customers love it and find it to be very helpful for preventing wrist/hand strain, while others feel that it doesn’t offer enough support.

Overall, I think the 3M Gel Wrist Rest for Keyboard is a decent product. It’s cushiony-soft and helps prevent discomfort, and the non-skid base keeps it in place while I work. However, if you need a lot of support for your wrists and hands, this might not be the best option for you. Additionally, the wrist rest tends to pick up dirt and dust easily, which can be a hassle.

In terms of price, it’s on the pricier side for a wrist rest. However, if you’re someone who spends a lot of time typing and wants to prevent wrist/hand strain, it may be worth the investment.

Overall, I would recommend the 3M Gel Wrist Rest for Keyboard to anyone looking for a wrist rest that’s cushiony-soft and non-irritating, and who doesn’t need a lot of support. However, if you’re someone who needs a lot of support or wants a wrist rest that’s easier to clean, you might want to look elsewhere.
