ACE Night Wrist Sleep Support, Adjustable, Blue, Helps Provide Relief from Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and other Wrist Injuries

I first purchased this brace almost 2 years ago due to suspected carpal tunnel and suggestions by friends to wear a night brace. I wear it diligently every night and do not have any tingling in my fingers when I sleep. Once in a while I will have slight discomfort in my right wrist during the day when working with a mouse and keyboard, but that is very rare.Hopefully I’m managing symptoms early on but can confirm this brace works wonders if you wear it consistently at night. During the day, if needed, I’d recommend getting a more flexible brace because the I’m unable to use it performing any mouse/keyboard/computer work. It’s meant for sleep.Just ordered a second one two years later because the foam beads that sit under the palm were getting worn or weaker. I wanted a tighter support again. Otherwise still helpful.

These braces are helping with my carpal tunnel. I used a different brand for many years and I would still wake up with no feeling in my hands. I was concerned if these would bother me because they are larger than the previous ones. Since I have been using these, I have all the feeling in my hands when I wake up . They keep my wrist straight with no flection. I'm glad I gave them a try. I can recommend these as a quality purchase.

This is my 5th kind of hand brace and it saved me from having surgery for carpal tunel syndrome. After not even a month of wearing it at night, the numbness is completely gone. I highly recommend as it is the only design that covers the palm all the way and the cushioning protects the actual nerves. It was recommended by my physical therapist and did not believe her at first. I had to waste my time trying other models that did not work and made the matter worse until I decided to go for the one she recommended and actually solve my problem. I still wear it at night preventively because it stops me from bending the hand at the wrist and sleeping on it like that.

Purchased for mom having swelling and pain in her hands and wrist. She wears them while she sleep and says they're a huge help

I needed this to support my wrist due to some nerve issues. I had looked at a few others, this being one of the more pricey of the lot. BTW, there are lots of supports on the market. This one looked to stand out since it promised to stabilize the wrist but still remain relatively comfortable. I'm not a big fan of loss of motion (or blood flow!) and this one had multiple velcro adjustments to fine tune the wrap to your wrist and lower arm. It also has padding under the palm which (IMO), keeps your hand slightly flexed, which I have been informed, takes some pressure off of wrist nerves. I found it adjusted easily and I could wear it for relatively long periods of time. About the only downside is that it attracts dog hair like magic and it is reminiscent of trying to remove d.h. from automobile carpet! Otherwise, very happy with it.

I developed pregnancy-related carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands. I debated between purchasing the ACE Night Wrist Sleep Support (which was recommended in a "best of" list of carpal tunnel arm supports) and the ComfyBrace (because of the large number of reviews (10x as many as for the ACE brace), many of them positive). I went ahead and bought one of each and tried them on both hands.Short story - I think the ACE brace feels like a better quality product and provides more support. It's $2 more expensive, but I would probably buy another ACE brace rather than the ComfyBrace.Both the ComfyBrace and the ACE brace have fundamentally the same design. They both have a sleeve you put your hand through, with thumb holes on each side of the sleeve so that the sleeve can be worn on either hand. The sleeve covers your palm and extends maybe a third of the way up your forearm. There is some padding along the inside of the forearm and wrist, and then there is a pouch or sac of cushioning (think small pellets, akin to what goes into a bean bag) that is supposed to fit into the palm, to support your palm and your fingers in a "natural" curve. There is also a strip of stiff material sewn into the sleeve that runs down the palm and the length of your wrist and forearm to stabilize your arm. Both braces then have a wrap with three tabs (one at the top of the palm, one around your wrist, and one at the forearm) that allow you to adjust how snugly the sleeve fits.I think the problem with the ComfyBrace is that the pouch/sac that is supposed to fit into your hand is 1) smaller than the equivalent in the ACE brace; and 2) more loosely filled, so it's thinner and flattens out a bit too much when you set the tabs for the wrap. Wearing the two braces side by side, the ComfyBrace just didn't feel as supportive as the ACE Brace because there wasn't as much cushion for the hand. I felt compelled to tighten the tabs on the ComfyBrace to get the same feeling of support, but perversely, this ended up flattening the pouch, and a lot of the supportive cushioning got squished out to the side, away from my thumb.In addition, the materials used in the ACE brace feel a little higher quality - the fabrics feel a little less flimsy and the pellets in the cushion for the palm are smaller, so in addition to the palm cushion being larger than the equivalent in the ComfyBrace, it's also firmer and provides more support. YMMV - I've certainly seen some reviews complaining that the ACE brace is bulky. One person's supportive is another person's own bulky, I guess.In fact, I tried wearing both braces on each hand on different nights, and on the night I tried the ComfyBrace on my right hand (which has worse symptoms), I ended up having to swap the braces and give my right hand the ACE Brace. My right hand was falling asleep with the ComfyBrace on, but this problem stopped once I switched to the ACE Brace. My left hand isn't as bad as the right, and the ComfyBrace has helped on the left.All in all, the ComfyBrace probably would work for someone with relatively small hands (my own hands are 7.5" around the knuckles), or someone who doesn't have very severe carpal tunnel syndrome. But I think anyone with larger hands or a worse case of carpal tunnel would probably feel better with the ACE Brace.In addition, FWIW, I've found that while the braces do help at night, they don't get rid of my carpal tunnel symptoms during the day. This is my first time dealing with carpal tunnel, so I thought (perhaps naively) that wearing nighttime braces would address the problem entirely or at least reduce daytime symptoms as well as nighttime symptoms. They mostly help with nighttime problems (for me, it's my hands feeling like they were falling asleep), and certainly my hands look less puffy in the mornings than they used to, before I started wearing the braces. But I still have grip problems during the day, which I assume either need to be treated with a daytime brace (neither the nighttime ComfyBrace nor ACE brace is really compatible with daytime activities), or they will hopefully go away once I'm done being pregnant.

My carpel tunnel only tends to trouble me at night. This is the most comfortable brace I've bought yet that so far, has actually prevented my hand from going numb (so far--it's only been 3 nights). It has a narrow pillow of bean bag foam bits inside it, that fits under your wrist and hand, at first I thought hmmn, not sure I will be able to sleep with this thing but it's been great. It's much softer than any other brace I've tried yet still provides lots of support due to how the pillow sits under your wrist. The way it's designed, it doesn't need to be as tight on your arm as the others do. The only thing I dislike about it, that could be changed, is the ugly blue color. I am not a fan of blue at all, if it was a brace I needed to wear during the day in public, it would be a no-go due to the color. Otherwise, I don't feel I can deduct a star due to color, when I am only sleeping in it.If you need to wear one of these on both wrists at night and you are female, that might be an issue with middle of the night #1 visits, as I think I would need to remove one in that case.
