IMAKSmart Glove with Thumb Support for RSI & CTS Hand Pain (Medium)

After a short time using my computer mouse pain and severe pins and needles set in and I had to stop. Since using this glove during computer use, I have experienced great relief. It has certainly helped me and I am now able to spend longer periods typing, playing games and surfing.

If you suffer from sporadic generalised wrist pain and have to work using a keyboard, this is an ideal product. It is adaptable in that you can remove the splints, if required, to make it more comfortable. The little intergral bean bag also helps to make it more supportive when working. I have rated it with 4 stars as the material tends to pick up any fluff or lint and can look a bit untidy.

The product is good but cheap quality material and very poorly finished around the thumb. This is my 2nd glove after hand washing twice it went into holes and seams came undone. Expensive at £25.

It works as it says on tin. May be, I am using it too often, ware and tear is not its strength.

Returned as this product did not make any difference. Unable to use on either hand either.

My job requires hours of computer mouse work which results in my palm becoming sore and my ring and middle fingers to become numb. I also suffer from DeQuervain's syndrome (tendinitis of my thumb tendon) for which I sometimes wear a thumb/wrist splint. Using a mouse is not possible with the splint. I have tried every type of 'ergonomic' mouse to no avail. The IMAK Smart Glove has both hand and thumb supports as well as bead filled padding at the palm. This glove is lightweight, comfortable, and reminds me to keep my hand in a more ergonomic position while using a computer mouse. I have found that I can do mouse work for long periods of time without the numbness and discomfort I had been experiencing! I am a happy customer!

I'm a computer science student, and one day of doing some homework I started getting a sharp pain going down my wrist a little ways, and I figured it was probably because I have been typing on a keyboard that sits fairly high from the keyboard tray it's on so I can't rest my wrists well. So I bought a  Belkin Wave Rest Gel-Filled Cushion Wrist Pad -Black  and this IMAK glove. I have noticed after a couple of days that the pain has gone away and I think it's mostly due to the thumb support in this glove keeping my thumb in a better position.I like how the glove is flexible, but I wish the support strip going along the top was just a little more stiff; it almost feels useless. The pocket of beads is a nice touch, it's comfortable and it doesn't get in the way like I was expecting it to. But, coupled with my gel wrist rest, it makes my hand sit too high off the keyboard to use while typing, but I don't think typing with this is the best idea because I found my thumb getting a little sore from fighting the thumb support over time.One of the biggest reasons I decided to get this glove is because it is reversible. I just pop the thumb support inside of the glove then reach inside the glove, grab the end, and pull it out the other side and it's done! I found you didn't have to take the wrist support strip out before doing, but might want to be careful with it!I definitely recommend this product, even if you're a doing a lot of typing. I mainly wear it when I'm sleeping, driving, or just not doing much around the house, and that seems to keep the pain away pretty well, even when typing and/or playing games for most of the day without it.

This item was very tight and caused more pain than it relieved. I am not a big person. When I went to return it, the return process showed the item was unreturnable! This fact should have been made very clear before the order was placed. I feel as if I've been scammed.

I got this as a gift for my boyfriend who works at a computer all day, and has tendinitis. He said it was effective as a compression glove, but incredibly awkward when he actually had to work. The thumb support reduced mobility to the degree that typing became a struggle, pad on the palm was obtrusive enough that it made it impossible for him to use his mouse, and would bump keys on the keyboard as he typed, and the length of the glove stops fairly short at the wrist, so it did not provide compression on the part that needed it most.
