My boyfriend and I have always been a fan of cock rings, but we always used them more for his durability. We came across the couples section of EdenFantasys and decided to look for a more durable one (we always resorted to cheap, disposable ones before). We came across "The Big O Ring" and it intrigued me that it vibrated, was stretchy, durable, and had multiple settings. I still wasn't expecting much more than a regular cock ring that just added a little ooh-la-la because of it's vibrations... my predictions were completely wrong.

When we received the ring, we tried it out and it was perfect for us. Not only did it have modes that were light, tingly, and provoking but it had what I like to call "POWERHOUSE MODES" that really change the entire experience. We all know that unlike often showcased in most pornography, women don't simply have a mind-blowing orgasm through penetration. However, when my boyfriend surprised me by messing around with the settings, for the first time ever I had an orgasm during casual penetration. The ring made his entire cock feel like it was buzzing---a sensational feeling---in addition to that, it had this soft, bumpy surface that we used as clitoris stimulation while we engaged in our casual penetration.

The ring was condom-friendly. No more frustration with the disposable ones that crinkled condoms or slid around. We have found our match. Afterward, completely amazed by my own results, I asked my boyfriend what he thought of it. He exclaimed "Did you feel what it was doing to my cock?" with a smile on his face. It turns out I wasn't the only beneficiary of the vibrations. HE LOVED IT! It didn't fit him too loosely, it didn't slide around or roll up, and he was more than happy to see me orgasm during casual penetration. Upon using more than once, we realized it did increase his durability. On average, having sex lasts 5-10 minutes for us without the ring, when we use the ring our averages change to 15-25 minutes. We no longer have to deal with 'wham-bam-thank you ma'am' incidences when he gets really aroused.

The only things that really ever got in our way with this toy were the batteries, after using the toy 3-4 times (depending on the length of time we used it) we had to change them out, and the limit to positions. The clitoral stimulation doesn't really work unless I'm facing toward him. Other than that, it is easy to clean, can be used alone, easy to discreetly store and overall satisfactory for both of us. I've recommended it to a some of my friends and a couple did decide to buy. We joke around and call them our "friendship rings". I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for clitoris stimulation, male durability, vibration, storage discretion, condom friendly toys, and even solo masturbation (both male and female anatomy). If you're not necessarily into missionary/face-to-face during sex and you're not wanting to buy and change out batteries then this ring is not ideal.
