I love this shoulder rest. Smart design that lets you bend and adjust it however you want, very comfortable pad, and unique grips on the feet that stay securely on your violin without sliding around. The bendable shoulder rests are usually a lot more expensive than this, so I'm glad I found it while it was on sale. This one also offers a lot more flexibility. Other bendable shoulder rests like the Bonmusica only bend along the body of the shoulder rest, while still having the regular feet, but the EFEL bends EVERYWHERE! The feet are zigzags that you can stretch out for more height, or compress down for less height, you can twist and bend them to change the angle, you can do anything along the entire shoulder rest. It's genius! My violin teacher liked it so much that he had me order one for him as well!
