If you are looking for an easy-to-use ball gag that beginners or well-seasoned experts would enjoy, this one is great. It is everything I would expect a rubber ball gag to be. It functions very well and is very easy to figure out. The ball is nice and squishy so it shouldn’t damage your teeth or hurt your mouth. The leather (sorry, it's not vegetarian) is nice and soft. There are plenty of holes in the back strap to accommodate small or larger heads. It is simple and well designed. It comes in three great colors so you can pick your favorite color or match it to your other gear.

The structure of the gag is very sturdy. When I used it for the first time, I noticed right away the strength of the straps; no getting out of this one. But just in case you panic for some reason, it is easy to remove. The leather strap goes all the way through the ball and is securely assembled. And even though the leather is bonded and not cut from one piece, it seems to be very strong. The buckle on the back is easy to secure, adjust, and remove. It functions like a basic belt buckle.

The ball is made of a squishy silicone or pvc material and is just the right size (about one and a half to two inches in diameter). [Editor’s Note: The ball is composed of rubber, and is two inches in diameter.] It isn’t too large (I didn’t find myself actually "gagging" on it) or too small (I couldn’t talk or really make much of any noise).

The extra pleasure I got from not being able to vocally restrict my husband from his fantasies was great. The moment I put it on he said, "Now this is why people love these!" It really looks great when it's on. I highly recommend using this with a blindfold and/or tie-downs; it really heightens the senses.

The only other thing I would recommend is to put on chapstick before you use it… wearing it for a long period of time will give you chapped lips!
