I had owned a pair of fuzzy cuffs for a few years and enjoyed using them greatly... but I wanted something more dramatic and effective. In order to tie my boyfriends hands to the headboard of the bed, I had to use rope and tie the cuffs... not exactly the most efficient system. Enter Under the Bed Restraint System! This baby changed my restraint play and remains a favorite (sorry, fuzzy cuffs).

USES:
There are so many positions and combinations you can do with this system: spread-eagle with all limbs cuffed, only hands cuffed, only legs cuffed, restrained while on your back, restrained while on your stomach . . . the list goes on! Theoretically, you could install the straps elsewhere (desk, table), but that seems very inconvenient and more of a hassle.

You can detach the individual cuffs if you want to take your restraint play away from the bed, which is awesome!

This apparatus is great for couples and BDSM beginners. Keep in mind that the system is specifically designed to be installed under the bed.

Putting the system together is incredibly easy, especially if you have someone helping you lift the mattress. There are two ways to arrange the four straps and the packaging shows this in a diagram.

MATERIAL/TEXTURE:
A furry-type of cloth lines the inner portion of the cuffs, making it super comfortable to wear with no chaffing issues even when tightened. This is a great option for people with sensitive skin and who want a lighter form of bondage play. Some people may prefer traditional leather restraints for a more intense bondage experience. I could not find a specific materials list, but I do not think that allergies would be an issue in this case.

SHAPE/DESIGN.
The cuffs contain metal clips, which allow for easy and quick detachment (very important when you are in the heat of the moment and don't want to be fumbling around). Velcro straps are located on the outer portion of the cuffs and can be adjusted for width. I have found that the velcro is very strong and resists a large amount of pulling and tugging. It is nearly impossible for the restrainee to undo the metal clips of the cuffs.

Long straps are located under the bed and can also be adjusted for length - tall and short users can rejoice! The straps are thick and offer a great amount of resistance, even for stronger users.

CARE/MAINTENANCE:
If using between partners, you can soak the cuffs in soapy water. I wouldn't put them in the washing machine because the agitation may ruin the furry lining.

If living with others, the straps and cuffs can be easily stored under the mattress when not being used.

PERFORMANCE:
It is versatile, easy to use, effective, and erotic. Strong velcro straps, the cuff design, and thick straps make it nearly impossible for the restrainee to break free. In addition, this enables quick setup with no fumbling.

I recommend this toy for BDSM/restraint beginners and couples. Advanced BDSM players may be dissatisfied by the fact that this system is not made of traditional leather.

I absolutely love this restraint system - it's easy to use, versatile, creative, and comfortable. My boyfriend and I have both enjoyed it immensely and it is one of my favorite purchases yet. In addition, it is very discreet (unless people go snooping around under your mattress pads).
