My husband and I don't have much experience with cock rings. We own one vibrating cock ring that we didn't like much, however, after doing some research on cock rings I soon found out we were using it all wrong! (Reading the Edenfantasys forum is educational!) My husband was only putting the cock ring around his penis and not around his balls. So once we figured out how to properly use a cock ring I was determined to get a high quality, basic cock ring for us to properly use. Soon I found Tantus' Beginner Cock Ring and ordered it.

The Tantus Beginner Cock ring is made of 100% silicone. It is 2 1/4" unstretched and 1" wide. From the moment I opened the package I could tell this cock ring was quality. If properly cared for this ring will last you forever. It feels smooth and isn't sticky at all. It has absolutely no smell.

To clean you can use soap and water or toy cleaner. You can also boil it or put it in the dishwasher to clean. Be sure to only use water based lube because silicone lube will ruin the ring.

The Tantus Beginner Cock Ring is large enough to not be scary. It's width keeps it from digging in and being uncomfortable. It can be stretched. The description says up to 6 1/2" but I could only stretch it to 4 1/2" wide. No matter how much you stretch it, it will go right back to it's original width. It does require some strength to stretch.

To put on the cock ring first be sure you are flaccid, insert one testicle at a time, then insert your penis. Push down to the base of your penis, up against your pubic bone. Use water-based lube! It makes it so much easier to put it on and take it off.


Removal does require a little more effort. So using lube will help a lot. My husband had to stretch the ring and pull to get it off. Be sure you do not wear the ring more than 20 or 30 minutes.

My husband's erection was definitely larger. The head of his penis was swollen and I could tell a difference. My husband said his balls were very sensitive and "felt funny". His orgasm wasn't any longer or better and he didn't last any longer than normal. He says when he wears this again it will be just for me because he didn't feel it had any benefit for him.

His penis had a deep red color to it which was unnerving to me. Only after we had sex did I realized it was okay and that his penis wasn't gonna fall off. So keep that in mind if seeing your, or your partner's penis look odd would make you uncomfortable.

I loved that his erection was a lot larger but I wish it would have made his orgasm better or helped him last longer.
