Ergonomic Articulating Wrist Rest - Aluminium Alloy Computer Arm Rest - Flexible Computer Support - Freely Arm Support_silver

I bought this on a whim just to try out thinking it would never work for me to reduce shoulder pain and would probably just get in my way. Boy, was I wrong!I am an extreme computer user. I'm always on it. Sometimes 24 hour stretches during marathon gaming sessions or 10 plus hours just surfing. Due to this, I developed pretty severe shoulder pain that was bad enough that I couldn't sleep on my right side for the past 2 years. So, over this time I've tried various things to alleviate the pain(gel pads,etc).Enter the eLink Pro. Once I saw it I thought it would never work on my pain or even be useful in my computer setup. And with a 50 dollar price tag I was really skeptical to drop that much on what I thought was basically a novelty item.I'm never been more wrong in my life.This product is the real deal. It's super strong and easy to place on anywhere on your desk. It glides easily it any position either mousing or typing. The armrest is comfortable and I haven't experienced any heat issues even after hours of use. It swings out of the way when not in use and even looks cool too. But the best aspect is that it has relieved all of my shoulder pain. Coupled with a good chair, the eLink has forced me to sit straighter an have better posture while I'm on the computer. I can now sleep on my side and my back pain flare ups are gone.I can honestly say that this product has changed my life for the better. My gaming is much more comfortable and general surfing is a joy to me now. I've introduced it to friends who were skeptical, but after trying it, are converts also. It works so well for me I am going to get a second one for my left arm. It's that comfortable for me.If you work with the computer for any length of time or have shoulder pain, give this product a try. You'll be glad you did!

This is not my idea of a well-executed and thought-through final (read:usable) design. I have had a similarly designed/constructed arm Ergoguys Arm-stand Computer Armrest (eg-ergoarm) for years and it never was the "best" in design... and it was never that smooth, and the arm pad kept falling off and well it ended up making a sick puppy noise... Regardless this one is too "sticky" in the pivot joints and is actually uncomfortable right from the get-go. Included in that, is the too-small size of the arm rest. Also the little black thing that is at the top of the threaded lock-down mechanism falls right off. It also should have some neoprene on the top of it to make it a better design to get onto and keep on the desk. It is sturdy but just does not perform as it should . If the would combine some of the features of this one here: which i also bought/now use ErgoRest - 330-016-BK - ErgoRest Articulating Arm Support - Black - Long Arm, Long Pad (which I find too much plastic parts in the wrong places) in this stronger design they would have a winner... Seems like these all fall into the Goldilocks drama without any sign of a "mama bear" design

This a very good product and does exactly what I thought it would do. It is well made and sturdy, and attaches easily. The rest portion swivels 360 degrees and the support arm swivels 180 degrees side-to-side.The support arm will also lift about 45 degree from horizontal and adjusts firmly with a locking screw. The only thing I wish it would do (but kinda knew it wouldn't when I purchased it) is adjust lower. As is, the support arm will not go lower than horizontal. The reason I would like this is that I keep my track-ball mouse on the pull-out table from my computer desk which is about 3 1/4 inches below the main desk top. I wanted to attach the armrest to the upper table as it is more sturdy. Now I have to attach it to the pull-out table. If I hadn't replaced the sliders a couple of years ago with more sturdy ones, the table would not have been sturdy enough to support the armrest and the weight of my (rather skinny) arm. In addition, I had to place a small book under the track-ball to lift it about 1/2 inch. So far, however, I do feel a little easing of the tendonitis that I've experienced for the last couple months, which is the reason I purchased this. Thanks!

When adjusted to my comfort level and while moving my arm the wrist rest kept hitting the edge of my desk. The rest part could have been a bit longer too.

I returned this arm after a few days use. Amazon's RMA was painless. I have been using a single ErgoRest articulating arm for several years and wanted a second articulating arm. I purchased the eLink but quickly realized that it has too sluggish a feel on my left arm compared to the silky smoothness of the ErgoRest on my right arm. Difference was too distracting to tolerate. And when I unscrewed the eLink for return to Amazon, the black plastic screw cap detached from the metal part. Lesson learned: purchase two identical articulating arms so that the movement and feel will be identical. I'm extremely pleased with the second ErgoRest arm that I purchased from Amazon.

PROs:- ELIMINATES wrist pain. Never had a gel pad do that- Vertical axis locks but is adjustable- Non vertical axes swing fluidly and without effort- Easy to grow accustomed to arm posture- Armpad material is generally comfortable* (see CON #1)- Top of desk clamp is padded to protect desk surface- You'll look like a cyborgCONs:- Pad material doesn't seem to breathe well, prolonged use in heat can be uncomfortable- Might conflict with armrests on chair (I use mine on standing desk and swing them away when sitting)- Leg clearance between bottom twisting part of clamp might limit placement (I could not clamp mine right above my thighs, either needed to be farther out or in to avoid bumping)- You'll look like a cyborg10/10 Do recommend
