Pros & Cons
Pros
This is a solid walnut slab that has been shaped to make it ergonomically comfortable. It's beautifully crafted, wonderfully smooth, and brilliantly sturdy. I love it, but it's somewhat expensive and it came warped.

There are times when my palms will stick to the surface of the palm rest
