This was our first cock ring, and actually one of our first toys in general. And we were not disappointed. The design is a little intimidating, as we are beginners; but it definitely fits the function. Worn during sex it hits right where it needs to for her, and sends some nice vibrations up your shaft as well. After a few uses we even used just the bullet as foreplay on her clit. She liked how intense the vibrations were.

The material is a bit bulky/thick to both look at and at times use. But I'm ok with that, because I feel like the ring will never break. I like to think of my purchases as investments, and the longer it lasts the better the investment. There wasn't any unnerving smells after the initial new toy smell faded away.

The design is fairly intimidating as it is large and protrudes out a bit. It fits in your hand, but takes up almost all of my hand. Even the ring portion itself is fairly bulky. However once you put it on and use it, it becomes clear why it is large and protrudes so much. While on the penis it tends to find its way right to where it needs to be. Simply by leaning into her and moving your hips, you can make your lady squirm with pleasure. It fit snugly onto the penis and had little problem coming off. I can see how it might be possible to get some discomfort if you tried to get it around your testicles as well, but frankly it isn't necessary as the vibrations are so strong. A good example of form meets function.

The vibration controls run off double A's and uses a dial for intensity. The controller is attached by a cord, which can be annoying to deal with. There's nothing worse than getting tangled up while you're tangling with you lover. So the controls were nothing flashy, but as one of our first playthings it was just fine. The vibrations were very strong and perfect for her; but for someone more sensitive, it could be more than you need. But as I mentioned it does have an intensity control. When the bullet is taken out of the ring it works great for foreplay. Multiple uses for things always makes me feel better about anything I purchase. I've taken the batteries out after use and it seems to sustain power for a significant amount of time. It isn't terribly quiet however, so the vibrations do come with a price if you live in a dorm or such.

The bullet itself is not waterproof, and so you do have to be mindful during cleanup. No special instructions for cleanup of the ring itself, it cleans easily. Storage should be somewhere without lint, as the ring tends to pick it up along its journeys. I store it in a box and seem to have little problems.
