5 Gates, no Pandemonium

If you're looking for something to spice things up, this is a relatively tame and low impact way to bring new dimensions into the bedroom. You can mix things up, take control, or just look great. You can't go wrong.

Use

From him: This is a classic five gates device, simply designed, with pretty much only one use. The largest loop fits over the penis, secured behind the testicles. The other four loops makes it encircling the rest of the shaft, effectively trapping it within. Experience varies with the user's size. Depending on length and thickness, each user will experience a different effect. It can range from being almost completely enclosed if you're on the smaller side, to being tightly constricted and bent if you're longer and thicker. In addition to the 5 circular loops, there's an additional smaller D-ring on the tip, which is handy to clip things onto. Suggested things: leashes, bells, clips, weights, any manner of objects.

From her: This particular gates of hell is not intended for users on the smaller size, as the desired constricting effect will not happen. My partner is in the 7" range and these gates fit him as intended - not constricting enough to completely cut off blood flow, but not too loose, either. Definitely measure before purchasing.

Design / Craftsmanship / Material / Size / Fit

From him: There are two components to this toy: the steel rings and riveted leather strap holding them together. Of the rings, the sizes in terms of diameter are as follows: 2", 1.75", two rings that are 1.5", and the smallest clocking in at 1.25", with the small D-ring as well, which isn't intended for penis constriction. The leather band holds them all together is about 4" long total. As for fit, being metal this product is going to be something that either fits you or doesn't. Of course, 'fit' is subjective. I'd recommend measuring yourself before purchasing to ensure a good fit. When I wear it, I experience all 5 rings lightly constricting my penis in terms of fully expanding width wise, and the shortness of the leather bends my penis upwards.

From her: This is a very well made device - the craftsmanship is both sturdy and attractive. With the use of the D-ring when combined with a chain or leash, the leather piece holding together the rings is put through a fair bit of strain, but has shown no signs of fraying or cracking.

Performance

From him: Personally, being a little larger than average (7"), this product worked great for me. I love how it feels when I'm fully hard and trapped in it. I love the option that the small D-ring provides, and love love love the way it looks. It doesn't prevent me from getting all the way up, and I can even cum while wearing it, for a pretty interesting sensation. I had seen this toy featured a couple places before and was interested in it, but when She bought it and we tried it out, I was pretty blown away by it. There's a lot of options when it comes to use for it, and it's been fun to explore them all and see what all you really *can* do with it.

It can be somewhat difficult to put on if you're larger. You basically have to be almost completely flaccid, or else there's really no way that it's going to fit, the large 2" ring especially. As it's seated behind the balls, you have to put your testicles through it first, then fit the entirety of the penis through what space remains.

From her: The gates can be used in a variety of ways. They are a great way to showcase your partner's endowment (whether in private, or in public, such as a play party), but they have their functional uses as well. As my partner mentions, he can achieve orgasm with the gates on, which is a visually stimulating treat for me and an interesting sensation for him. With the D-ring in play and the addition of a leash, chain, rope or weight, the gates can aid in a variety of BDSM play, including leash play and cock-and-ball torture. However, once the user's erection flags, so does the efficacy of the gates, which tend to slip off one by one until only the largest, behind the testicles, remains. That's not to say that they can't still be used in this way - you just have to get creative.

A note for the more adventurous: we wondered what it would be like to have intercourse while he was wearing the gates. He was fine, but my vagina was having none of it. We did manage to get the head in, and the sensation of the first ring around the base of his head inside of me was an interesting one. Ultimately I called it quits, but we will probably try again with the entire thing (penis + gates) wrapped in a condom, to smooth things out.

As for getting the gates on (and off, in some cases), a little lube works well, and it's always good to have around in case of difficulty.
    • Comfortable during use
    • Difficult to put on / use
    • Holds up to use well

Care and Maintenance

From her:
The gates should not require too much cleaning, but a little soap and water does the job just fine. We store it uncovered in our toy box.
Follow-up commentary
This toy has held up very well and is as much fun as when I started as it is now. We did try to have sex with it but experienced a little pinching, so we're going to have to try it with a condom at some point in the future!

    Thank you for the review of this interesting toy. The sizes of each ring, the length between them and the size of the leather tab would be good to know.

    Also, how do you keep the leather conditioned? I know with leather cuffs, soap and water will destroy them.

    Keep on writing and playing.

    Such an interesting toy, I'd love to hear how it feels during intercourse, the gates would provide such a cool texture. Having a his and her perspective was really cool too.
