I would strongly say that this is a gag for beginners or for people who don't want to spend much on trying out a ball gag. It works but it definitely does not stand up to extreme use. So, if you are getting it for light use or are just a beginner trying to find out if you would enjoy a gag or not, then it works well.

The design is okay; it's not great nor is it awful. I don't consider this to be very well made though due to the materials used. It claims to be leather on the straps but I sincerely doubt that anyone would consider it to be such. The flimsiness of the strap material is a drawback as it permanently creases and doesn't seem to want to hold up to anything more than occasional use. The ball is okay. It's just a hard plastic shell and I haven't had any problems with it, even with how hard I can bite. The plastic bits connecting the ball to the rings are a little awkward as well; I find that unless I put on a lot of chapstick before use, they try to cut into the sides of my mouth.

It works okay for me as long as I don't wear it for too long. However, it didn't quite meet my expectations when I bought it due to the expectation of the strap to be made of leather rather than some mystery material. I find that I can take great pictures with it but for actual use, I would prefer a different gag.
