The Ring of Passion is a great beginner's cock ring. My husband and I had never used this type of toy before, but as soon as we received our package and opened it, we immediately knew the Ring of Passion was something we wanted to try right away. My husband still has some difficulty getting this ring on when we want to use it, as stated in a previous review, but no lube is needed to put it on. My husband simply stretches the ring with his fingers and then places it around his penis. As far as the ring slipping or anything during intercourse, we have had no problems with slippage during the multiple times we have used it. My husband is quite a bit more fond of the Ring of Passion than I am, so I do see it as a good addition to the toy drawer overall.

The Ring of Passion is made of TPR silicone, which does make it feel kind of sticky when you try to do anything with this ring from using it to cleaning it. Promptly after opening the package this ring is shipped in, there is a slight rubber smell, but the smell goes away after one cleaning. The purple color is very vibrant, and unlike some other cock rings I've seen reviewed, the color has not started to fade at all for the month I've had the ring. The ring itself does have a seam all the way down the middle, which looks a little cheap but has no effect on the function of this toy. Something great about the silicone of this toy, though, is the fact that the ring I received is quite stretchy.

The Ring of Passion is an overall great design idea. The shape is ideal for stimulation of both the clit and the penis. The size of the ring is great for putting the ring onto the penis; however, the silicone material the ring is made of makes it a bit difficult to get on sometimes. Once the ring is on, in order for it to be comfortable, you have to make sure that no hairs get near the ring when it's being placed or they will get pulled. The ring size will fit all average men and some larger men but will start to get uncomfortable for larger men due to the limited stretchiness of the thick ring. The most undesirable part of this design is the cord attaching the bullet to the remote, but it does also allow you to adjust the speed of the vibrations if wanted.

The Ring of Passion is the most difficult toy to clean that I own. The clit stimulating bumps are very difficult to clean in between, whether you are cleaning with a damp cloth or under warm water in the sink. No matter how thoroughly I clean this ring, it still seems dirty.
