Don't be a square.
Never use one, no point.
Too many people think it's for them to wrest their wrists on while they're typing. It's not, and that may mess up your wrists ala carpal tunnel.

I agree with you about using the wrist rest while typing, but the wrist rest should be just that...a place to rest you wrists when NOT typing....which depending on what you are doing could be a good portion of the time.
I much prefer a wrist rest. I couldnt stand how it felt like I was angling my hands up to type, so an adventure was had and this was madeShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/qLQ1FYO.jpg)

Over the years I have always had Keyboards with included wristrest. Even before I went mechanical. I realize more and more that most mechanical keyboards dont even come with one anymore, and what I have seen of "external" Wristrests that you can buy, they're not really good in my opinion. So I wonder and would like to know, whats your preference and why ? Do you always use a wristrest, and which (if its an external one non included with your keyboard) is it. Or would you never use one and maybe dont even see the point of using one.
And lastly, is using a wristrest a definate benefit for my wrists to be more relaxed or is that not necessarely correct but just a matter of preference ?
I would appreciate all your experiences.
My usage of keyboards is for regular typing, office related stuff, gaming and a little programming. Just in case that matters in the question of why a wristrest would be better or wouldnt matter.

A wrist rest is just for resting your wrist, and not to use while typing![/size]
I'm using a fat grifiti keyboard wrist rest and I'm really enjoying it. I would certainly recommend it!
Lately, I've been thinking of using a wrist rest for my trackball since my wrist stays in one place. I would never use one for a regular mouse but it seems like it makes more sense with a trackball. Has anyone had any experience with this?

How long have you had that wrist rest for so far? I think that there has been like issues with it over time like the outer layer peels or something.

I've considered getting one after I transitioned from regular mouse to trackball mouse because I find that my hand somehow slides down so that my wrist is bending and I'm actively over-correcting myself by pushing my hand and placing it way over the trackball body so that it rests on the mouse. If you somehow find a good one, let me know because I'm thinking about getting one, too, especially because of what I'd been doing.
As for the regular wrist rest for typing - I never used to have the problem with it typing but ever since I got into mechs, I'm more aware of my typing habits and the flat wrist situation is throwing me off. So at this point I alternate depending on just how high the mech board is. For something like the Poker X that I feel sits a lot higher, I use one. But for something like the Royal Kludge topre clone, I can do with or without it.
I just use one for my mouse.Also a wrist-rest-for-mouse-only person; this is a must for me. I actually used a Royal Glam wrist wrest with my poker2 for 2+weeks and found that: 1. My typing speed slowed substantially, 2. My fingers fatigued quicker during the day while typing, and 3. I actually developed pain in my right wrist.

I find that when I'm typing my wrists move both laterally (left/right) and forward/reverse while typing, allowing shorter finger movements to adjacent keys. With a wrist rest my wrists were stationary which prompted my fingers to have to stretch further while typing, hence the increased fatigue.
I would really like to try using a wrist rest. I haven't had the funds or the interest to get one for a little while now but see as more and more seem to be getting reviewed I would love to try one with my new keyboard that I will be getting around christmas time.
For those who have used them what is a good wrist rest that isn't foam. I am looking for a leather one because I hate the texture that the foam ones that I have seen online are being produced with.
