Why does the left-hand brace cost $2.00 more than the right hand brace?

I don't know either and wondered about that. Maybe they sell more Right hand braces since the majority of people is R. handed.But , ask the Wellgate people.

We can only price our products according to what it costs us to acquire them.

I really have no idea! I got the right hand at Walmart, to see if it was good and also I needed asap. And it was really good and got the left hand at Amazon. Which by the way was cheaper than in Walmart. But they really work!

I can't say for sure why the difference in price but I can say that this saw has performed well at every task I've given it. Not so much as a hiccup. Very happy with the purchase. Hope that helps.

Yes, the molding of the brace is designed as either right/left dependent.....

I purchased this for use with the left hand. It fits more ergonomically with the right hand because of the contoured thumb cutout. If you have left wrist tendonitis up the thumb-wrist vertical, this brace will be uncomfortable & causes more pain...unless you strap the Velcro around all 5 fingers, immobilizing your thumb.

It works for either foot. There is no specific one for left or right, unlike a wrist brace.

supposed to be able to be used on either hand, but there is no cutout for the thumb when worn of the left hand. This is the second wrist brace I've bought that supposed to be reversible with the same issue. When worn on the left hand, it rubs on the soft flesh between the index finger and the thumb, making it uncomfortable. Definitely more comfortable on the right hand.

Both - it has a metal splint but has a wonderful cushion in the palm that makes it super comfortable. I use this only at night - I type at work and so it would be very difficult to use this while typing as it keeps your hand fairly immobilized. This is by far the most comfortable brace I've found.

More or less. I wear two braces, I put them both on each night. You can get used to it. The alternative is not having any brace at all, and suffering pain.

I do believe you can use it for either. I have many different braces and most can be used for either right or left.

Suggest considering purchase of $34 Orthoheal inserts at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003JVRCUS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1 I bought both and found them to work pretty similarly well for me.

Yes. Actually, this brace is designed to be worn on either hand (thumb opening on both sides of the "sleeve").

There are three (3) adjustments. One is for the thumb. You will be able to set how tightly that you wish the wrap to be. I have found that this is much less binding than other braces. There are two stays alongside the thumb that provide moderate support, but do not bind as I have experienced. I use mine while I am working on the computer. I have had no circulation problem whatsoever.

Well, it's actually on my left wrist and I'm a rightie, so I haven't tried, but there is PLENTY of room for finger movement, and picking up a pen just now, the pen never even had to touch the brace when I held it in writing position, so you should definitely be able to write with it on.

Yes, the price is for one set of two. They is a left crutch and a right crutch that comes in each set.

Birchwood Casey makes a left-handed model but their shipping fee is what I consider to be high. Check their website.

It is stiffer than the older one I had, springier I guess. Surprisingly enough, my thumb is doing fine and I use it a lot. I have not had to use my wrist / thumb brace at all that I can remember with it. It also may have to do with the scroll ring which I really like and use more and more instead of holding down the button to scroll. Maybe you just need to use it for a few days to see. Hope this helps. :)

As others have already said, the splint can be worn on either hand and it does work. While it may not be as pretty as a splint made specifically for right or left hand, it it quite effective for either hand. It is also a bargain. I use two (one for each hand) and they work great.
