We recently wrote an article about the benefits of using a wrist rest. That's why we won't be focusing on that aspect now. Instead, we'll be listing the best mouse and keyboard wrist rests of 2018. So without further ado, let's get to it!
3M Gel Wrist Rest
Key selling points:
- Gel-filled design
- Leatherette cover with antimicrobial product protection
- Non-skid base
One of the more expensive options on the market. There are 2 designs to choose from. The first one is a keyboard-only wrist rest, while the second one can be used for both your keyboard and mouse. The leatherette cover also means you can easily clean it.
Gimars Wrist Rest
Key selling points:
- Made of memory foam
- Competitive price
- 2-in-1 package
Two wrist rests (keyboard wrist rest + mouse wrist rest) in a single package. If you're on a budget, you might as well consider Gimars Wrist Rest bundle. It's definitely one of the most affordable offers you'll come across. As for the wrist rests themselves, they serve their purpose of providing your wrists with comfort.
Belkin WaveRest Keyboard Wrist Support
Key selling points:
- GelFlex™ Comfort Zone cushioning for flexible support
- Lightweight construction
- Helps avoid injuries that can result in repetitive stress disorder
Advertised as a wrist pad for both gamers and office users. Comfortable for people who use computers for extended periods of time daily (protects against injuries). The design is keyboard only, though, so you'll need to get a mouse wrist rest separately.
Grifiti Fat Wrist Pad
- Available in a variety of colors and sizes
- Non-skid base made of squishy neoprene
- Cool "retro" design
These wrist rests are really fat, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Plus, their old-school design does have its fair share of appeal. Available for keyboard and mice separately. You can also go with a "slim" design, although the options there are more limited.
Glorious Gaming Wrist Rests
Key selling points:
- Designed specifically to meet the needs of serious gamers, prone to long-duration, intense computer usage
- Protects against injuries and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Foam core interior and smooth cloth surface
- Dual-lock stitched frame to prevent fraying of cloth surface and rubber base
- 3 keyboard sizes (and 2 thicknesses): full size, tenkeyless and compact
- Mouse-only wrist rest available
