Does this brace have any stays for rigidity?

yes, it does. please see allison's answer as it accurately reflects my answer as well

Yes it does. On the palm side there's a roughly 1 inch wide fairly strong piece with a nice layer of padding for comfort. The back of the hand side has a roughly 3/4 inch wide strip of thinner, lighter weight bracing as well. Overall the brace has just enough flex to ensure durability in normal use, not enough to move the wrist out of position.

Yes, the fitted brace is on the palm side consistent with most hand & wrist braces I've used in the past. My only complaint with Mueller is the length of the velcro'd straps - too short

To answer your question - yes. This is a fabulous brace. I were them because I snap my wrists when using weight. This keeps my wrist in place with a metal bar that goes from top to bottom - but very comfortable.

I don't feel any metal in my brace. it is very flexible and works great for me.

Sorry..I find the comfort cool to be more supportive than the brace about which you are asking. I wear the longer Mueller thumb/wrist brace with a more stable support for sleeping. Good luck.

The brace has an opening for the kneecap , some braces do not have this but it seems to give more flexibility. Hope this helps.

Yes, but it's a soft hold. If you want a firmer hold, I would buy another brand.

No. its was fairly easy to install and stays in place. It didn't seem like it would but it is stable.

Yes. Ours is pressure-mounted and has never slipped or needed readjustment since the initial installation. We really love this gate. We have used many other gates over the years and this gate is the best we have purchased by far. I highly recommend this gate.

Because it has a plastic flexible rod on either side of the brace, it does not roll down. It does not slide down nor fall down. I am very pleased with it as other braces made of rubbery material gave me a rash and sweated. This brace is fantastic.

The one i purchased is for right wrists only, and it is an excellent wrist brace. It does not pinch, nor provide restrictiveness that other braces i have had do.

No. The only movement there is, is the seat height adjustment. I'm sitting in it now and tried to tilt it back and it's comfortably rigid. Hope this helps!

does not have cross brace in the middle. frankly there does need seem to be a need for it. there are legs in the middle that can be seen in the product image, but from extensive use so far the middle has not sagged.

I don't think so. At least I couldn't tell that it did. This is a good product. Good hold without being too stiff.

no there are no metal or plastic stays in this brace. It is a tight wrap held by velcro and the straps wrap under the foot for arch support. The is the same one that orthopedic doctors order for you for $125 and up

Unfortunately it is pretty rigid. I didn't realize that until I received it.

It's not actually that odd of a response. It would depend on your flexibility. I was able to get the brace on easily on my own, but I'm still fairly limber. If you are stiff or not very flexible you're going to need a little help getting it on. You'll have to decide that on your own. It is a very good brace and I'm not sure I've seen a better one advertised.

this particular brace is not suited for your application, you need something stiffer

The brace is designed to be locked in numerous positions. I bought this as a post op brace to keep it locked straight, then release it to reach the pedals in the car. The brace I received kept unlocking on one side. I contacted the company and they promptly sent another. Unfortunately, I experienced the same issues with the second. That being said, it was the best brace I used (of 3). They all suck.
