Does it fit a full-size keyboard?

Yes. At 18 inches wide it spans most full-size keyboards, including those with number pads.

Is it better than a gel wrist rest?

It is softer and warmer to the touch than gel. Gel stays cooler and some models are contoured, so choose gel if heat is your main concern.

The fabric surface can be wiped with a damp cloth. It is not machine washable, and the foam core should not be soaked.

It works, but it is wider than most laptops and better suited to a separate keyboard at a desk.

Yes. The base grips the desk and keeps the rest from sliding during typing.
