    Great buy!

    • Written by from Ferndale

    I bought this to prevent my MacBook Pro from getting worn and dirty. It blends in with the color of the Mac and is still easy to use the trackpad. Hope it stays on for a long time!

    High Quality Product

    • Written by from Saint Anthony

    I've had no complaints for the most part with my Moshi 15" Palm Rest Protector, it blends in very well and does not interfere with regular use. The only grief I have had with it is the loss of stickiness as it is peeling off now and needs replacement...

    Great product!!!

    • Written by from Glendale

    I just got my palmguard came in today and I have to say it is absolutely worth it. The color fits perfectly with the aluminum unibody on my 15" mbp and it's extremely easy to install. However, I didn't use the trackpad protector since I noticed a lack of sensitivity when doing single click but worked fine with multi-gestures. Not sure why.

    Overall, it's a great product and you will not regret spending $25 on it.

    Simple and effective

    • Written by from Roanoke

    This PalmGuard is a great solution - it really is sized perfectly, and the precision of the color matching is impressive. I was ambivalent toward the trackpad guard, but tracking texture is an intensely personal matter. I was sad to leave this on the MPB I just sold, but I'm buying another right now.

    Absolutely essential!

    • Written by from Denver

    This is an essential product for those looking to protect the palm rest of their MBP from scratches and dings. I purchased this for my late-2009 15" MBP, and it transfered flawlessly to my new 15" i7 MBP when the other unit had to be replaced; there have been no problems with adhesion.

    I do not use the trackpad protector because I found an unacceptable depreciation in responsiveness when I did, but it's absolutely worth buying the product just for the hand plant protector. The protecter does exactly what it's supposed to, and it looks fantastic! I use it along with the Moshi keyboard protector, which also functions very well though can deform a little with heat and use.

    Excellent Product

    • Written by from Suffolk

    Just installed this on our 13" and 15" MBP's and they work great. The track pad is ever so slightly less responsive but you get used to it rather quickly. Highly recommend these IOT keep the palm and trackpad area looking good as new.

    beautiful

    • Written by from Mississauga

    at first i was cautious to use this, as i find that third party accessories usually make a new macbook pro look 'ugly'. This however, blends well with the colour of my mbp - the texture is nice, and the best part is that it isnt thick! -- so when i close the lid of my mac it still sits snug.

    highly recommended.

    fits just right

    • Written by from Cebu City

    this is a great product which adds to the beauty of the notebook. and contrary to what others have said about the trackpad not working, after a few days of installment when the palmguard and the trackpad guard has settled, the trackpad is actually working fine with it's sensitivity back to normal. just allow a few days and a little getting-used-to for it to work.

    Great product

    • Written by from Kenmore

    At first, I was quite hesitant in getting this, but I still went ahead and got one. And boy, I'm glad that I did. It was a breeze to put it on, and the cover didn't interfere with the functions of the trackpad. Very high quality product. I highly recommend it.

    Moshi

    • Written by from Markham

    I finished installing my palmguard and I'm not impressed. I love the look of it but it doesn't play well with my satin speck see thru. I managed to squeeze the palmguard on one side under the tab of the see thru. On the other side it keeps lifting and the tab keeps going under the palmguard.

    needed on the unibodys

    • Written by from Basking Ridge

    I bought this not so much for protection but the just-so-slight padding it adds to the palm area. If you mount it close to the edge the palmrest no longer cuts into your wrists as the sharp aluminum does by itself. Its a needed addition. I may ditch the trackpad part though. Feels too rough.

    moshi products are the BEST!!!!

    • Written by from Woodland Park

    I got the PalmGuard protector about a week after I got my new MacBook Pro and I love the PalmGuard Protector. It looks and feels like the aluminum that is on the MacBook Pros. It is really is to put on and I haven't had any problems with it since I got it about 4 months ago.

    Excellent Product!

    • Written by from Quispamsis

    I bought thisproduct about 2 months ago for my Macbook Pro. Buy it if you are indecisive! It fits on perfect, comes off easy when you want it to, and leaves nothing behind. Protects both the palm area and trackpad perfect, and the trackpad still works great! I havent wrote a review for anything online before, but i liked this so much i decided people would benefit from it. Again, a must buy for this computer.

    Works Great-Looks good

    • Written by from Rockford

    The fit and finish of this cover is great, it looks good on the mac and my track pad works just fine. Not sure why others have trouble but I do not notice any difference from before and after the cover is on; track pad is just fine. I would recommend this to anyone.

    Deminishes track pad

    • Written by from Langley

    Fits perfectly, looks and feels great. I have my trackpad set for light touch not clicking and found it greatly affected how the pad worked. Took several touches, sometimes had to revert to clicking for it to work, frustrating. Loved the overall look, the palm rest is great. If your track pad is set for clicking, I think it would be a good buy.

    Works perfectly, goes on smoothly, removes with no fuss

    • Written by from West Melbourne

    I love this product and I am so glad that I bought it. The palm guard and trackpad cover match the brushed aluminum very well in texture and color. It installs very easily with absolutely no bubbles or wrinkles or fuss. I even removed the trackpad cover to reposition it and it came up with no problems whatsoever, didn't leave any residue, and I re applied it with no difficulties. And the track pad cover doesn't interfere with its functionality one bit. I was able to use the cursor, scroll, and swipe just like before without any extra effort or repetition. While this product might be a bit pricey it is certainly worth the money and will help protect your laptop from dirt, oil, and scratches.
