The xeros cushion is very comfortable. I happened to come across this when I was looking for shoulder cushions without rubber bands. So far, it stays on my instrument and doesn't fall off.

I got the medium tall size, very comfortable cushion, my teacher also liked it

I always had problems with shoulder rests, due to their inflexibility. With this shoulder cushion, I could move freely while playing without discomfort. I got both the medium tall and the large tall.

Comfortable shoulder cushion, stays on violin and doesn't fall off. Easy to clean as well.

I'm still in the first year of lessons and as an older adult student, I have plenty of issues due to my lack of flexibility. My teacher uses this shoulder rest and recommended it to give me a more dynamic approach to supporting my violin. It certainly does that and I had no issues with it sticking to my instrument. I'm getting the next taller size and not giving this the fifth star as choosing the right size is hit or miss.

This type of rest is very helpful to hard-to-fit players who like to tinker. I have tried several conventional rests, being disappointed each time. So I bought this extra-large and tall foam rest, and moved it around and trimmed it until it felt right. For ten dollars, you can afford to experiment.

Took cardboard saver off the tape...the tape tore and wrinkled, making it unable to stick to violin....I recommend NOT buying this product...........Acoustagrip Solo for me.

This would be a great item if it would stay on. The product description states that it will not fall off, but it does. The shoulder rest hardly adheres to the violin and just a small erratic movement causes the item to fall.

I am looking forward to trying these rests for myself and my students. I've ordered several sizes because it's hard to tell what the height is. It would be very helpful if you could add the dimensions to the descriptions, especially the height of each shoulder rest. I entered 5 stars because I expect them to be what I need, but I'll adjust my review if needed after receiving them.

I went through the trouble to select items, put them into the shopping cart, and then found that I was forced to create an account with your company. I created one anyway, with incorrect information, so that I could let you know that I will never shop with your company

I tried this as a professional, but it did not work for me because: 1) The sticky material is almost useless because the pad keeps falling off almost every minute. 2) The contour is not helpful because the violin is lifted too high. The pad should be flat. I do like the firm material, however. If the above is fixed, I would highly recommend it.

This was ordered to replace the "medium" I recently ordered. The regular "medium" attached well, but never touched much of me. I have a slim/athletic build, so I ordered this one. They are inexpensive enough that it's no problem to order a few different ones until you find one that fits. Like the "medium", this "medium tall" adheres well to my violin and gives me the mobility that my teacher thinks I need. I also have a Viva, traditional shoulder rest and a Bonmusica. The Bonmusica was good for helping me trust that the violin wouldn't fall and now I'm ready to enough shifting it around as I play from the E to G strings.

This product was a complete failure for me. It won't stay on my violin. I called Shar and the person I spoke with didn't seem to be familiar with it and wasn't able to give me any guidance on why it wouldn't stay on. It has a very weak adhesive on the back. I dampened the back and dried it as advised by the Shar person but that didn't help. Instructions make it sound like it stays on by some kind of suction but I haven't had any success with that. Not worth sending back as postage would be as much as I paid..

I waited to write this review until my students had used this rest for some time. They are all good about putting the shoulder rest back on its card to keep the suction area clean. The suction cups are a better solution even than rubber bands because the shoulder rest doesn't slip. I would appreciate it if my local music store would carry these rests so we can find the right size before buying. They looked into it but couldn't find a supplier. Is it possible Shar could help?
