Insufficient support

Pros: Sturdy and the height was adjustable to some extent

Cons: All my previous rests have been straight. The curvataure of this one made it feel very insecure.

Surprisingly good rest for the money.

Pros: First product I've felt strongly enough about to offer a review here! I've tried many shoulder rests over the years and this is by far the best. Fit is very comfortable and gives a better, secure hold than I've found with many other rests. Fantastic rest for the money.

Cons: None

Other: Time will tell if the metal thread screwing into plastic will work lose due to wear and tear.

Amazing shoulder rest for the price

Pros: Doesn't slip off the violin or move around, as it has very few moving parts and the feet are completely made out of a well shaped hard set rubber. All in all very stable and comfortable.

Cons: The feet can be unscrewed to make the shoulder rest taller, but not drastically so. However, you could by a pair of longer feet separately if you think you need them, like the viva la musica extra long feet.

Good for experienced handlers, no manual!

Pros: It's comfortable to use! Well set up, not in parts and pieces!

Cons: It's doesn't come with a manual book on how to handle or take care of it! I was afraid I'll spoil it when it wasn't flexible enough to move!

Good, solid rest and more comfortable than Wolf.

Pros: Easy to adjust. Comfortable when positioned correctly. Better than Wolf equivalent whose exposed screws I didn't like.

Cons: Brackets are quite stiff to adjust and, like many other shoulder rests, quite chunky so difficult to fit into my slip case.

Other: The 4/4 setting was far too wide for my normal sized fiddle - but great to have option of notching down to 3/4 width. I think that may partly be the small width of the bottom of my instrument.

Excellent product and excellent value

Pros: This is a splendidly useable shoulder rest and puts others to shame as far as price goes. It's sturdy and comfortable and will fit into a decent-sized case without difficulty. For me, the most comfortable rest is a Bonmusica - about three times the price and less practical, but very nice to use - but the Everest is not far behind.

Cons: Nothing at all.
