The Metal Xtra Thick Cock Ring by Doc Johnson can be used a few different ways, some being more effective than others:


1. You can place the cock ring around the base of the penis (the bottom of the shaft) while flacid, and watch your man's junk get huge when he's erect!


2. For the men who are a little more brave, or a little smaller, you can place this cock ring around the base of the penis, and pull the testicles through as well while flacid. This often gives better results as far as a thick, hard penis that stays erect for a long time. However, this is one of the most dangerous ways to use cock rings, according to my fiance's doctor. So unless you are experienced with this kind of play, I would be very careful.


3. You can put the cock ring around the testicles themselves. This ring is a little too solid and a little too big to fit around my fiance's balls without popping off during sex from all the lubricant dripping down from his cock. If you're going to use this method, I recommend not using so much lubricant.


3. This cock ring can also be placed directly underneath the head of the penis. This can be done either before or after a man is erect, but my fiance finds it easier to do so after he is erect. He is a large man, but with a little lubricant and some light pushing, it goes on perfectly. The reason he puts it on after he is erect is because the ring will often get stuck in the middle of his cock as he gets a hard-on.

You will find that using a cock ring can not only prolong your erection, but it also increases your length/width/girth and the sensitivity of your penis. My fiance has preferred to wear a cock ring for the last year now because it allows him to enjoy sex for longer periods of time, and better please his lady (me!).

This cock ring is made out of metal; Probably aluminum since it is so light in your hand. It is thick, wide, and obviously not stretchable whatsoever. My fiance and I were a little weary about buying unstretchable cock rings, but he has always preferred the tighter grip. When we put this cock ring on we were pleased to see that it was smooth, seamless, and had no imperfections that might hurt him.


There is no texture to this cock ring. Just smooth, shiny coated metal. It is cold to the touch, but warms up when worn around your penis. Since this ring is metal, it carries temperatures quite well. This means it is wonderful for temperature play. My fiance loves when I leave this ring in the fridge for 10 minutes or so, just before sex.


This ring, just like any other, will pull your hair if you are not careful. Simply hold down your partner's hair as they put the ring on and you should have no problems. It's all about being careful when it comes to cock rings.

This cock ring is a plain, circular ring. No fancy curves, corners, etc. The size is not adjustable, but as I mentioned before, it can be worn several ways. It was very easy for us to put on, and extremely easy for us to take off.


My fiance is 8.5 inches in length and 5.1 inches in circumference, and we purchased the smallest size cock ring (1.5 inches). I was worried it would be too tight or too loose, but it fit perfectly. It didn't squeeze him to the point where he was uncomfortable, and it wasn't so loose that it didn't work. It fit just right, and he actually prefers this ring over all the others we own now. He does complain that it feels a little bit tight at times, so we are making a purchase of the 1.75 inch ring just to see if it's a better fit. However my fiance says it isn't a big deal.


I think the smallest size would fit most men who are smaller in circumference, and would easily please the larger men who like a good squeeze. The only thing is that this ring might not give the smaller men a good grip, so you may want to look elsewhere and experiment first.


Here are some pictures of this ring next to a quarter, credit card, and in my hand:

As I mentioned, this ring is plain. No holes for vibrating bullets, no special textures or curves, no nothing. Just one plain, extra thick cock ring. It was very easy to put on, and very easy to remove. I just don't recommend using too much lubricant if you plan to use this ring around the scrotum.

Caring for this cock ring is as easy as it gets. You simply wash it with antibacterial soap and warm water. If you wish, toy cleaner, bleach solution, or top-rack dishwashing is also okay.


You can store this thing anywhere. It looks like a spare part to my vacuum hose or some sort of jewelry. Just be sure to put it some place where you wont lose it or forget about it!

The toy is packaged in a snap shut, shell-style case made of clear plastic. There is a paper insert with mostly minimal, useless information. The only helpful information is the following:


WARNING: Prolonged and frequent use of penis enhancing devices may cause ruptured blood vessels, hemorrhage, and hematoma formation. These devices can also aggravate existing medical conditions such as Peyronies disease urethral stricture. Penis enhancing devices should always be used with discretion.


You might be happy to know (or disappointed) that there are no naked women or men on the cover of the paper insert. It is very discreet except for the words COCK RING. The case is easily recyclable and can be thrown away very easily. I would open it alone just for discretional purposes, but seeing it from afar sitting on a table would not propose any riots.

The above information about the warning is very true. Cock rings can be dangerous, so if you are a beginner my fiance and I both recommend using a rubber/jelly/silicone ring to start out with. Solid metal/plastic rings are more of an intermediate/advanced user's choice.

Our experience with this cock ring has been great. It comfortably fits my fiance, and does not slide up and down like most rings do, due to it's thick design. It has probably been the most affective ring we have purchased so far. Best of all, it will probably never wear out on you. In your lifetime, at least.
