The Spartacus Combo Stretcher Divider is a spiffy little cock and ball toy for guys looking for intense stimulation. This toy actually has three simultaneous functions. At the top, there is a narrow cock ring that wraps around both the scrotum and the base of the penis. The leather that forms the cock ring is about 1/2" wide and the ring is fastened by three snaps so that it can be adjusted from about 1 1/4" to 2 1/2" in diameter.

The middle section of the toy is the stretcher, and it wraps around the scrotum, pushing the balls down and way from the body. This section is also fastened by snaps. There are two parallel rows of snaps. Fastened on the first row of snaps the inner diameter of the stretcher is about 1 3/4", and on the second row of snaps the diameter is about 1 1/4".

The final element of the toy is the divider. The divider is a 1/2" wide strip of leather that runs down the back of the toy and then between the balls. There is a choice of four snaps to secure the divider to the front of the toy. The four snaps are arranged in a square pattern that allows you center the divider between the balls no matter which setting you have chosen for the stretcher element and to adjust the tightness of the divider. There is also a small metal ring at the midpoint of the divider for attaching weights, leashes or incorporating the toy into bondage.

I think the main trick in purchasing this toy is measuring to get the correct fit. If you are thinking about buying one of the medium or large sizes of this toy, I recommend that you measure the distance that you can stretch your/your partner's scrotum. Wrap you fingers around the scrotum in question so that your fingers are on the bottom (i.e. the perineum side) and your thumb is on top (i.e. the penis side). Then pull gently to see how far you can safely/comfortably stretch the testicles away from your/his body. Measure the distance between the testicles and the base of the scrotum at the perineum to get the total stretch distance.

The measurements listed by EF appear to refer just to the stretcher element of the toy, so if you want to be able to use the cock ring element you need to add 1/2" to the listed measurements. For example, I received the 2 1/2" size for this review, but with the 1/2" cock ring in place, the total stretch is actually 3". So what ever your total measurement is, you want to subtract 1/2" when ordering to get the entire toy comfortably into place.

Over all, the stretcher divider seems to be made of descent materials that will hold up to many uses. The leather is a little bit stiff, but I think it will soften a bit with use. As with all leather, this toy can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a specialized leather soap, but it cannot be effectively sterilized.

Please keep in mind that the testicles are a delicate part of the male anatomy and educate yourself on how to safely use cock and ball toys before you start. Spartacus recommends on the packaging for this toy that you leave it on for no more than 30 min at a time.

Since the toy we requested was actually 1/2" longer than we had anticipated, it was a bit of a chore getting the stretcher divider on my partner. I had to slowly and gently stretch him out for quite a while before we could jury rig the thing closed. Once in place, however, my partner really enjoyed the intense stretching sensation, and we were both delighted to discover that the toy made him very, very hard. Even after coming once, he was still surprisingly hard and was able to come again in a much shorter time than either of us expected. We are thinking about purchasing the toy again, but one size smaller so that it is less of a chore to get on him!
