My husband and I have been together for nearly ten years, yet cock rings are still fairly new to us. Until recently, we didn't think they provided enough enhancement or stimulation to be worth the purchase or use. Thankfully, our viewpoint has now changed, and several cock rings claim our sex toy drawer as their home.

The Maximus enhancement ring is fancier than most cock rings I've seen. What I really like about it is that it is clearly designed to enhance sex for both partners. In the past I have seen and used cock rings that were obviously designed for the man only; I have also seen cock rings that featured extravagant and heavy vibrators and other types of clitoral stimulators, but without anything for the man to enjoy.

So, what makes Maximus so special? First you've got the two rings. The inner ring is for the penis, of course; and the outer ring is for the testicles. The inner ring features five strategically positioned beads, which my husband reports as "rubbing and putting pressure on all of the right places". The outer ring is a bit larger, and easily stretches around to lift, support, and provide a bit of restriction for the testicles.

For the ladies, the Maximus comes equipped with a bullet vibrator, which is held in the horizontal position with a snug "case", for lack of a better term. Nubs dot the vibrator holder, with a large central nub that protrudes much further out -- presumably to provide direct clitoral stimulation.

The Maximus enhancement ring is made out of TPR, which is great in terms of how good it feels and how quickly it warms up. Not so great is the fact that it attracts hair, lint and debris like there's no tomorrow; thoroughly wash & dry your Maximus (or any toy made out of TPR) and store it in a clean, dry area after every use to limit the gunky build-up.

The Maximus enhancement ring fell short of the mark in terms of lining up the vibrations to my clitoris. But the vibrations were powerful enough that they felt great against my vulva and labia. They were so powerful, in fact, that I could feel some "secondhand" vibrations traveling through my husband's penis, during oral sex and during penetrative sex.

Even though I wasn't able to have an orgasm from the Maximus enhancement ring, I still enjoyed the vibrations it provided to the lower parts of my vagina. My husband definitely enjoyed using the ring, and had a very strong, powerful orgasm that seemed to last longer than other orgasms he has had in the past. This toy is definitely a keeper!
