for me this ring works just as described, aids in control, and longevity. good construction, and material, not harsh on the skin at all. great cock ring to grab for those extended evenings. we personally will use the Sean Michaels cock ring after our foreplay has turned into hot and heavy action. for our average "quickie" we do not use this particular toy. this cock ring adds in the time department. when we use personal lubes, we make sure and use a recommended cleaning technique so it's ready for the next time!

this also helps me with DE-sensitization, our love making can be extended by a few minutes, or longer with a quick snug. it can get TOO snug, that can be slightly painful. I'd recommend testing different tightness's to see how it feels, and how it effects you and your performance. i tend to use a small drop of lube before use, this allows the adjustment balls to move slightly easier, and when you have it on, and you want to rapidly remove it, the adjustment balls will slide very quick.

the sensation is slightly numbing, but yet intense. with it TOO tight it get to a painful point, and that is to much, but with it snug, the numbing and tingling sensations are a good feeling during love making.

this can also be concealed under your clothes with no problems, just in case you might feel adventurous and want to keep an erection when you are out and about. maybe if you are traveling, or moving from different areas. this is definitely one of my favorite little toys to keep on hand. your not limited to where you can use it, it's small enough to keep on you if you choose to. definitely worth the addition to you toy box for both partners, both of you will benefit from this product.
