excellent shape, material and easy to put on.
14 out of 15 found the following review helpful

Pros: This chinrest fits across the tail piece of the violin, making it more central across the vioin. This makes holding the violin more comfortable as the student's head is then in a more natural position. I also like this chinrest because there is no metal against the skin, which could cause skin irritation. Intead, it is well shaped and unobtrusive.

Cons: nothing

Good product

Pros: This is a repeat buy as I have used the same chinrest previously and liked it. I've tried a couple of others, including a centre rest, but still find this the most comfortable. Its light and has an easy shape.

Cons: N/A

Good quality, easy to fit
4 out of 6 found the following review helpful

Pros: I wanted a chinrest that went over the tail, which this does. Good quality, easy to fit

Cons: flatter than my existing chinrest which made the violin feel unstable, so I cannot use it. Try before you buy.

A great product all round.
3 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: Very wide and really comfortable to use. Great not to have metal touching the neck. Really easy to fit with the screwdriver provided in the packet.

Cons: Nothing - it's great.

Other: I bought this as I was getting some allergy problems from the nickel on my old chin rest. Not only has the problem now gone away, but this new chin rest is much more comfortable to use as well, and was very good value.

Low chinrest
2 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: Low, centre-mounted chinrest which is comfortable & doesn't cause irritation.

Cons: Screw fitting can work loose over time, so you really need to keep the (supplied) screw-driver to hand - not the usual type of chinrest key.
