The Tantric Satin Ties wrist cuffs are an affordable, yet fun, option to spice things up. These are absolutely beautiful cuffs, but they are not perfect. The red satin feels wonderful on the skin, and the best thing I’ve found about them is that there won't be any marks left on your skin. While these cuffs are definitely not flimsy, they are not for serious play and bondage either. I believe if given the proper care, these cuffs could last quite a long time -- as long as heavy play isn’t involved.

For beginners who aren’t sure if they like being restrained, this set is a fantastic option. The velcro straps allow for plenty of room, and easy release; if you really need to get out, it could be very easily done. This set is one of the best for larger arms, and I believe they would fit a great variety of users. Those with smaller wrists may find problems with the cuffs being rather bulky, and they may have a long strip of velcro left over. I would not recommend this set in any kind of suspension play, but they would look lovely at a party or lifestyle event. They don't take up a large amount of space, so travelling with these would be very easy.

These cuffs are made of metal and polyester, but they feel like red satin that is slightly plushy. I can understand why some might find these a little too bulky for their tastes, but they have an entirely different feel than leather, vinyl, etc. They are also incredibly cute, as they are made to resemble a corset. Now who doesn't love a corset?

With these cuffs being so plushy, they will not leave behind noticeable marks; which can be important if you have to also lead a vanilla life. They are sturdy, but they won't hold up to seriously heavy play. They will also fit a large variety of wrist sizes. I have a rather large wrist, and I still have plenty of room if needed. The velcro does hang over when at full tightness, and that can be annoying so I may trim it. I can see where if you have tiny wrists these may not feel right on you; they will most likely be too large and bulky.

Wrist and ankle cuffs are some of my favorite components for play, and I am always on the prowl for new ones. I really don't enjoy spending large amounts of money on cuffs only to hate the feel of them; I believe being comfortable while restrained is important. I find if I'm feeling strained, then I don't enjoy the sensations as much. This set, with its plushy red material, is perfect for sensation play. The feel of the satin against the skin is delicious.

I also really like sticking them in the fridge to cool before play. The sensation doesn't last very long, but while it does? It's breathtaking.

I was super excited when I received the box with the entire set enclosed. I immediately opened it to try them out. The packaging is not discreet, but I didn't need to worry about that. The first thing I noticed is that they are even more beautiful in person than on the screen. The red is a bright red, which the black contrasts against. I love corsets, and the look of these cuffs is what first attracted me to them.

Once I opened them, I began to fear that these cuffs would be too bulky. I could see right away that they would certainly fit, and I may even have some room left over. I was definitely correct in that they fit. I also had plenty of room, and when they were tightened I had a long strip of velcro left over.

When both cuffs were on my wrists, I found the extra velcro to be very scratchy and the sensation took away from the pleasure I would feel otherwise; I do plan on trimming the extra in the future. I also don't care for the connector but it does its job.

Regardless of those minor imperfections, these are excellent cuffs. They kept me bound, and I couldn't get out unless I really set my mind to it. I was able to grab the extra velcro with my teeth and pull it away. The satin feels great against the skin, but be careful around lube as I'm afraid it could stain it. I'm not sure as I haven't tested that theory, nor have I tested any washing techniques on them either.

All in all, I really did enjoy my experience in these cuffs.
