Sex slings and straps are often for two types of couples. Those who are having trouble with a position and those who want to take a position further. While straps can be useful, they aren’t a replacement for bodily and sexual knowledge, nor can they work for everyone.

That being said, this strap is for those who want deeper penetration during backwards positions, specifically doggie style, an extra oomph, or a little bit of help. This won’t help couples unable to figure out doggie style, especially if the bodies are at odd angles. In terms of couples, it’s primarily for straight and male-male couples, although lesbians may find a use for the strap, it likely won’t be enough to justify the purchase.

The sling is comprised of three main parts, the strap, the foam cushion and the bullet designed to go into it (batteries included). When setting it up, attach the strap to the sling with the material made for the Velcro. Then, grab ahold of the hand straps and position the butt as desired.

The bullet in the pad will provide extra stimulation for women, or the male bottom, although basic physiology suggests women will benefit more. This is because the bullet was made to stimulate the more exposed clitoris, rather than the hidden, harder to access P-spot. That’s not to say male bottoms won’t enjoy it, but likely not on the same level as women.

As the sling is designed to move the butt easily, it is to be used during doggie style, lying down. Other backwards sexual positions, such as standing won’t work because the butt is limited in its movement, nothing could move it more.

The sling is made of Neoprene, a sturdy material used for products that need to be able to last, such as BDSM accessories and straps. This probably won’t be relevant in most situations, but the material is stable in most temperatures, giving couples freedom to experiment. Further, the material will withstand the expected twisted, turning, crushing or otherwise wear and time of its use.

As will be explained in the cleaning section, it's resistant to most lubes. Also, water play should be avoided due to the dual issues of water affecting the bullet and the Velcro. It lacks a storage unit of its own, but the box it comes in works well, as does a basic plastic bag. While it isn't obviously a sex strap, it doesn't look UNLIKE a sex strap either, it's best to hide if discretion is desired.

Oftentimes straps may chaff, stain, or even rub, but here it was comfortable and didn’t received a single complaint from either of us. This could be used for mild bondage, it can restrict, but only lightly and may not please veteran BDSM enthusiasts.

As mentioned in the first section, the ability to use this product is determinate on the ability to do the position. We were not able to engage in doggie style on our own and this did not make anything easier. While the ability to adjust the butt allowed us to try different ways to penetrate, but none of them worked.

This leaves a decidedly mixed impression. On the one hand, it did improve our attempts, not only were we able to try to penetrate at different angles, we managed one stroke of penetration in doggie style. However, this bit of improvement does not change the fact that the position was not accomplished.

For those who are able to achieve penetration, the box provides two suggestions for using the strap. One is to lean upwards at 45 degrees and the other is downward at 45 degrees. Up should provide more g-spot penetration, while down provides a “unique” sensation.

The bullet is garden variety, it has numerous settings and is is modestly powerful.

In terms of use, it was quite easy to slip into. Simply put on the wrist cuffs and position the foam cushion underneath the pubic region is all that’s needed to position both members. Once in place, moving the straps up or down directs the butt, making it quite simple to utilize.

The cleaning however is quite simple. The structure of the material is resilient against most dirt and stains and for what does get through may be removed with a damp rag. When used, the only lubricants that should be utilized during penetration are ones that are water or silicone based.
