This wrist pad is filled with gel that feels like a brick. If you wanted a good mouse pad you are too late in the game. This is what I use and still works great today: Razer eXactMat and eXactRest Bundle - Mouse Pad and Wrist Rest I unfortunately bought a vespula and I learned quickly it was made out of plastic not aircraft grade aluminum and the wristpad on the vespula is filled with bricks instead of gel. See if you can find their old product from 2009 and earlier somewhere..

Go buy yourself a brick from your local hardware store. That brick will be softer than this pad. A lot softer...

It is a gel but it is not very squishy (like the 3M ones) and the stiffness is my only complaint about the mousepad. It actually hurts my wrist.

Yes, this wrist pad is the kind filled with gel, and it is wrapped in cloth. The gel is a good consistency - soft enough to take some pressure off the hand, but firm enough to keep your wrist from sinking in. It works well for me and I would buy it again.

Both my husband and I feel the pad is firm but very comfortable on the spine and muscles. We are experiencing much better and longer sleep. Hope that is helpful.

I personally would not use this pad for helping back pain. This particular mattress pad I returned because it did not match what was pictured. For helping with back pain, a memory foam mattress TOPPER not a mattress pad would be the best. However, if your mattress is too old, and needs replacing, no topper is going to help. So first determine if your mattress needs replacing. Then I would look into getting the best memory foam topper I could afford. For my son, I got a tempurpedic mattress topper. It has helped quite a bit. Remember you need a topper not a mattress pad. A pad is just a covering for the mattress. It is not made to give substantial padded comfort to your back.

We have been sleeping on this gel foam pad for 3 years or more. I honestly haven't noticed that it has changed at all. I would say it will definitely last more than a year. � hope you enjoy it as much as we have�

Oh please don't ask me as I sent mine back and never ordered again. It's merely foam, no support nor comfort it is not what it states, reason for my return. See handprint? Yeah, well don't expect it to come up as it's merely foam not memory foam, read on memory foam it must contain viscose, this doesn't nor do many now advertising as memory foam. Just use search on memory foam, not to any site but contents. Good Luck! I bought 4 before getting one that helped, as my prior, which lasted 9 years. It was true memory foam

I've used it for 13hrs straight, honestly for me it's more comfortable than using the mouse pad on the laptop. But then I've always been a mouse type of girl so I'm much more used to using a mouse than a mouse pad. Hope it helps

I guess the best answer I can give for this is that regular memory foam feels "dryer" or "crisper" to me. It's still squishy, but you don't sink into the bed as much and it has a little bit more resistance. This gel infused one feels more dense and that makes it more squishy for some reason. I like it much better than the regular memory foam.

No, it is not gel filled. It is inflatable. They give you a small instrument by which you inflate it. This is why it is so terrific for a person who is really thin - those gel filled pads really hurt a person like this. This is the only thing that helped my mother; she had already had various cushions and sheepskin.

It's more like the foam you would buy as a mattress topper. It is pretty sturdy foam and I don't feel like it's going to get torn up or wear out. The device does work well for relieving neck tension. I hope this helps.

Actually the hard cup is much better. My husband has been using one for years as recommended by our doctor. The support is much better and it is much more comfortable. I tried all the popular gels with no relief and finally listened to my husband's recommendation. In addition, they never wear out. I had to get mine on Amazon because they are difficult to find.

I never use anything but the low setting which is always sufficient for me...unfortunately I started using my old pad again because the plug connection on this pad keeps pulling off....I don't understand why this plug is on it, it's not on any others and I think it's a design flaw. the pad itself is so comfortable and soft and doesn't bunch at all..but the plug pulling off became much too much of a problem...the heat on low however was great...hope this helps

Manufacturer states you are not to sit or lay on it. But my doctor said it was fine for me to lay on it as long as I don't program temperature too high and DONT FALL ASLEEP. The pad needs to CONFORM to your body. I find laying on my foam mattress topper is perfect for my back. Manufacturer wants you to lay it on TOP of your body. My doctor told me they have to say that or people, if they fell asleep could get burned if the digital control malfunctioned for instance. I've been using this pad regularly and it produces very good moisture! I'm happy with this pad. I prefer the control to Thermophore. I own both. I prefer BodyMed controller.

I think the density of this mat is really good. Yes, it is thick and cushiony, but I don't feel as though it's too "squishy". Hope this helps!

Personally, I think it's a nice cushion. I would say it's a little softer than memory foam. The gel is there to keep it more cooler than regular memory foam since that sometimes tends to soak in the heat and sweat. I absolutely love this purchase.

IMHO it was not flexible like most gel rest. Also, after a couple of days use it was flat what my wrist impression.
