Me and my slave have been using this gag for about six months now and I have almost nothing bad to say about it. First of all me and my slave are both vegetarians, so leather is something we avoid when possible. This has the texture and sturdiness of leather without having to kill any animals.

The rubber ball from what my slave says has no bad taste or at least after a good wash upon receiving the gag any foul taste is pretty much cleansed. The pink rubber ball fits well into the mouth without being overly large and uncomfortable. Breathing around the ball is also not a challenge, something hard to find in solid ball gags. She has asthma and has never had a problem with breathing through the gag even during the hardest sessions of sex and bondage.

The gag does its job, when tightened to the proper level the gag keeps even most yelling down to a much lower volume. However, it does not completely silence the wearer who can still speak (though very muffled)around the gag. The holes are nicely spaced and I have always been able to tighten it rather quickly compared to cuffs and collars I have used in the past. As I said before the fake leather can hold up to a beating, you can grab both ends of the gag while doggy style with no fear of the gag ripping.

My slave also loves the colors, if you are getting this for a gift for your female partner there is a set of similarly colored BDSM toys that she will probably love as well. Also if you are just getting into BDSM the fun blue and pink colors may sit a little better than the typical black and red hardcore bondage gear.

Used as a gag during sex, masturbation, or what have you this works great. Especially if your partner is a bit loud during sex. As I mentioned before its a cruel and fun handle for doggy style, as well as many uses I am sure I have not thought of.

After months of use this gag is still as nice as it was the day we got it and still the best ball gag we have ever used.

The fake leather wears nicely and still looks almost new as does everything else. I am extremely happy with this purchase.
