Product Reviews of Wellgate for Women Slimfit Wrist SupportProduct Review: Works for bigger gals, too. Not well-constructed. Summary: 3 Stars
I was worried about this fitting since it's a "slimfit" style and I'm a bigger girl, but it was the one I wanted to try. Thankfully, it does fit (I've uploaded a closer pic of their size guide). That said, it IS a wrist brace so it's not entirely comfortable--and it does affect my typing somewhat...but for most every day stuff like emptying the dishwasher or changing diapers, it's just fine. And on the plus side, it does keep my wrist from moving, which is what I was looking for.
Unfortunately, after one afternoon of wearing, the stitching was already coming apart on the palm side (see photo) so this will be returned. I think a sturdier stitch (instead of a wide zig-zag) might help the issue. I might try this one again, but I might try another brand first.
Product Review: Wrist support for anybody with small wrists Summary: 5 Stars
First of all, the idea that this product is made "for women" is just a marketing ploy to get money from those people who will buy something if they can be fooled into believing that it was made "specially for them". This is a nice, comfortable, soft wrist brace that will fit most people, regardless of gender, orientation, race, or planet of origin, if they have wrists on the small side. I'm a man with 6.25 inch circumference wrists, and it works great.
It is not the softest wrist support I've ever used. But it is reasonably comfortable and good for wearing to bed. I don't wear it during the day. Before this, I was wearing the IMAK smart glove, which amazon also sells. That is softer (and warmer, for better or worse) than this Wellgate wrist support, but it is not rigid. It allows some movement. The Wellgate is rigid and well designed so that the Velcro doesn't drag along the flannel sheets picking up lint as you sleep.
Product Review: Wristbrace with excellent flexible and under/over, yet firm support Summary: 5 Stars
Wellgate for Women Slimfit Wrist Support, Right
This is an excellent product, very flexible, but still supportive. Cool firm support, but flexible enough to permit full movement for normal work, i.e., typing, writing lifting, etc. Product wraps securely and offers support above and below wrist and velcro has good grip with no unnecessary hanging pieces, and nothing extra to grab onto passing objects. Appears to be easy to handwash. I found this brace excellent because it gave firm all over support, without creating any areas that were overly tight or uncomfortable.
Would recommend to any woman needing a smaller wristbrace. The others I used had an "under wrist metal support" that was far too long for a normal woman's hand/wrist.
Product Review: excellent product Summary: 5 Stars
Please notice, this does say "SlimFit" so those who are reviewing complaining that it should say for "small women"- the slim fit description covers that base.
It's a great product, I went through a lot of products trying to find something that would fit my scrawny wrists and help with carpal tunnel so bad that I regularly dropped things.
I'm currently working 10 hour days, and I can pretty much go all day without extreme pain if I wear this brace. I love it. It's ugly, but I love it.
I have now had this for a few months, my velcro hasn't worn out yet. If it does I absolutely would buy another of the exact same product. I would pay for one of these every month. Put it this way, it's much cheaper than the surgery I was looking at.
Product Review: very comfortable and stylish women's carpal tunnel glove!! Summary: 5 Stars
Most women's carpal tunnel gloves are hideous and an unattractive tannish color..this glove is silver, matches with anything, stylish, form fitting, and best of all..comfortable!! When I wear it, my hand is very well supported and immobilized while I type and do clerical tasks yet allows me enough flexibility and movement to move my fingers when I need to...overall, it's a very exceptional carpal tunnel glove!
