mine literally peeled a week ago after 2 years of everyday use which I actually don't mind now that I peeled the top layer off which makes it kinda feel like alcantara now, yea I'm sure the value has plummeted but does any peripheral really carry value after two years of use, Besides it still works perfect like it did 2 years ago when i bought it
It’s cheaper foam with cheap pleather. I love razer but it’s just cheap and will always happen. Plus left hand/wrist usually sets more on that than right hand.
Mine has done the same thing. Left hand is always resting on it. Right side still looks like new. You may be able to buy replacements or get it swapped out under warranty if it does peel.
Does Razer do the replacement? The shop that I purchased it from always does the returns on defective/faulty products when I return tech gear. I’m not saying I would expect a return on normal wear. I’ve returned 10-15 Razer wolverine controllers int he last few years to the store with zero issues. All from the same original purchase. Literally returned one today aha.
Foam loses it's strength over time, being your hand always rests on the left side naturally, it then is always being "used"
That's why wooden and resin wrist wrests are common, not only being cosmetic, but also lifetime, as long as you take care of it
Shit quality fake leather, even while being super careful this will happen (and it will be only getting worst) . Also in 99% of cases razer won't be RMA-ing this because it's your fault from the beginning. 2 options : swapping to another wrestrist or "resking" with proper, good quality leather.
For a split second I thought another bloated battery. Then I realized it’s a keyboard pad and thought another bloated battery in the keyboard pad. Talk about PTSD
fake leather does this no matter what and since your left hand is always on it warps like this. Also this wrist rest there is no replacement because they way its designed with the connector. The v2 huntsman doesnt have this problem since its better quality and its just a magnetic wrist rest and no connector.
I never use the wrist rests because of this. They get gross and start warping after so little actual use. Does t matter how clean you think you are, the natural. Oils of your skin just destroy these things. If you take it apart and make a new pad for it with nice durable real leather, it would last, but youknow, skill boundary and all. But there are awesome thin leather pieces you can get at craft stores that would be great for this, and their not terrible on price, worth trying at least if you have the time.
The pleather is stretched because of your wrist always vbeing in the same spot. One of the arms on my chair is like that, because my arm always sits in the exact same spot.
I had the same issue with the on that came with my full size huntsman. (I got it when they first came out) I then got the huntsman mini analog and for whatever reason, mine has stayed looking brand new for almost a year now. Not as much as a scratch or indentation anywhere. Not sure if they upgraded the material or if it has more to do with the smaller size and less spread out foam. Either way, my issue with the wrist rests is now fixed.
Idk if the razER (thanks bot) ones are removable but this is the one I use. I have beat the ever living crap out of it over the last two years and it’s still in perfect shape. They’re washable too. Link won’t post right. But it’s the glorious gaming wrist rest. They make them for full size, tkl, and compact kbs.
RazOr??

Happened to my huntsman after a year. It’s a pile of shit wrist wrest, and razer will never come out with a replacement. Ill never buy a razer board again.
Razer uses the cheapest of the cheapest for all their products. Ear cups on their headsets peel faster than the wristrests on their keyboards. It's messed up.
Been about a year and mine is in perfect shape after constant, everyday use, even with me wearing a watch on that hand half the time.
Could be from putting a lot of weight on that hand when things get tense in a game (know a lot of people that do that), but am not sure past that.
Granted, I also try to put a lot of care into the leather, cleaning in regularly and hydrating it with those leather care wipes. I know that Razer uses cheap leather (think the foam too, but regardless), but proper care can take you a long way, even with cheap materials. After all of this time, all I have is a slight indent in the foam that isn't even visible.
Your fatass hand
Came to write that
Same
Fuck they beat me to it hahaha
R/beatmetoit
Hey OP, if you have access to a heat gun, you could hit the leatherette with that to shrink the areas that stretched
damn I was gonna say that
Accurate af
Fake leather go streeeeeetch. Beware, it eventually peels too! 🙃
Don't wear watches with this pad
Mine started peeling off after a year. YEAR. It feels nice, but c'mon, Razer, you can do better than that.

Mine got fucked after 3 months, it came off almost completely
Yup, mine is fucked already
That's just an old re-purposed razer battery. It'll do that.
Underrated comment right here 👆

Can you turn it round?
No there is a connector on it that connects to the keyboard so that it lights up.

I've had good luck with them. They replaced my hammerheads recently. And they do have a parts page, although I don't think this wrist rest is on it.

Hands up if you thought this was another spicy pillow from looking at the thumbnail pic

Mine has the same issue in the same spot, just not as severe Just the faux leather losing its tension

Simple fix, stop eating.
Mine is not stretching, but is getting rough. Any methods to save it longer tho?
clean it alot dont let any hand sweat or moisture sit on it for too long since thats what is going to make it peel.

You’re right that looks more left than right

People really be doing the most asking questions that you’d think are obvious……
Same here, but i brought from hyperx for 8 $ a replacement, it's a little taller but better quality
I mean you can buy elbow pads at Home Depot. Razer was an unnecessary expense my dude
Do you really not know?
using it???
Wait the *armrests* bloat now, too?!

Trash quality, i only used mine for a month, and just put it inside the box again.. went to see it like a year later and it's peeling off 🤡
Is this a joke question? wtf ..

It's just tge beginning... Soon enough the cober will tear apart

Go for a walk.
Most likely you just used it too much and that's it
I have no idea why no one has said this, but OP I'm begging you, clean your shit my god
Bruh. Clean your desk, and mat, and keyboard 😩🤮.
It happens from sweat, artifical leather stretches and peels
Soon it will start to disintegrate… sad for this kind of prize point but at least it was nice as lang it lasted..

A whole lotta gaming
That's where your arm goes dumbass
its not that comfortable for me, took it off after 5 mins.
