This gag worked great for its intended uses! I was slightly concerned after reading other reviews that it was hard to adjust - and it actually kind of was. It took a little effort and you kind of have to get the knack for it. Upon first use, we adjusted it to the right length (basically loose enough to get it over my head, but tight enough that it will stay there), and left it that way. Doing it this way does mean it takes a moment to actually slip it on, but I don't have to worry about it going anywhere. We generally don't start off with using the gag, usually as things heat up and the noise level gets higher, that's when we decide to break it out.

I was also curious about the comfort level as my mouth is on the smaller side. It just feels the tiniest bit on the big side for me - I have to wear it for more than 30 minutes to actually have noticeable discomfort. I have noticed no taste the times we've used it. This product does exactly what I want it to - it stifles/muffles noise well and I no longer worry about the neighbors on the other side of my bedroom wall knocking on my front door! It's great that I can make as much noise as I want without having to worry about that aspect.

The silicone does have to be stored in such a way that dust/hair can't really reach it, otherwise it doesn't really want to come off without washing/rinsing. Generally, after use, we give it a quick wash with some warm water, let air dry, and then store with the rest of our toys.

All in all, for the price, I am quite happy with this purchase and it serves its purpose very well.
