First the negative: Neither of which should be expected. (YMMV)
The matte side has a pea sized stain or blemish that won't clean off with alcohol, soap, or a microfiber cloth. This is fine for me as I would avoid the logo, but the matte side feels a bit better.
The glossy side has a bend near the edge where the right palm/wrist would go, though it's barely noticable so this is the side i'm using.
Then the positive: Regardless of what I just mentioned,
The wrist rest is genuinely beautiful, especially on the glossy side. Despite some of the comments, this side doesn't pick up as many stains as the matte.
Weight of the rest is surprising and gives it the feel of a premium product; hence it doesn't need the rubber pads and won't move around easily.
Cleaning is easy and straightforward. I don't have to worry about damaging the finish.
Branding on matte side is annoying. Something so minimalist and sleek should not be burdened by a big ugly logo. Otherwise perfect. Sizing is right for TKL.
This wrist rest is very comfortable to use. Its glass construction makes it heavy enough to stay where you put it. It also stays somewhat cool and dry unlike many silicone wrist rests.
