I must say that I was somewhat wary of this toy due to the length of the bit, but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I actually enjoyed it more than the typical ball gag usually used in my bedroom trysts. As the bit was smaller in width I was able to enjoy being gagged while having less difficulty when breathing. Since I am not a fan of erotic asphyxiation the bit was a welcome addition.

Apart from the length of the bit the other problem I initially had with the toy was the intimidating rings of steel to which the bit was attached. For a novice who had never used a bit before the rings gave the illusion of being a toy that should not be messed with, however, as before, I was happy to experience that the bit was one that could be used both by the trained pro as well as the rookie.

As much as the bit had its positives you cannot overlook its faults. The biggest problem for me was the rubbery aftertaste it left in my mouth. Since I am a screamer, I had to constantly bite on my bit in order to quieten myself, which inevitably left my mouth tasting like rubber for quite sometime. Apart from the aftertaste, I felt that the restraints could have been tighter. My partner had to adjust the bit a couple of times as it kept getting loose.

However, after weighing in its pros and cons I must give the bit gag my stamp of approval as I truly enjoyed my experience. My partner used the bit along with a leashed-collar and an abundance of rope. My partner in particular enjoyed the bit as he is always trying to find new ways to shut my mouth, and now he has the bit to add to his collection.
