English cock and ball cage by Doc Johnson

I was really excited when I bought this toy. It looked really interesting, and I liked the fact that it was completely adjustable and made of leather and metal - easily cleanable surfaces with fun textures.

When I received the package, I immediately checked out this item. The first thing I noticed was that it seemed sideways to me - I had assumed the straps from the ring to the ball cage would be on the sides, not on the top and bottom. I figured I could just turn it around if I didn't like the way it looked once I got it on my boyfriend.

Putting it on, however, didn't prove to be that easy.

First off, the straps that go around the balls sort of bow out if only fastened on the last snap. When on the middle snap, they're stable and straight - but for guys with bigger balls, this is a problem.

I never did get the straps in the back to fit around my boyfriend's balls. I tried, he tried, we tried.. no dice. It seems to me that device is proportioned incorrectly. There doesn't seem to be enough space between the cock ring and the ball cage for the balls to actually fit properly - especially for someone with larger and/or more sensitive balls. Plus, the snaps can be pretty painful to snap around that area, even if you don't get anything caught.

The ring fit perfectly in the device. However, since the back part of the device didn't fit, that point was moot. Since the ring is detachable, we took it off and used it by itself. It was less snug without the leather straps on it so it wasn't a perfect cock ring, but it was still nice without being too constrictive.

Overall, I think that if you were just the right size and this toy fit you properly, it would be a lot of fun. But it just didn't work for us. Smaller or very large men would have to buy a different ring, but at least it's adjustable!

Maybe we'll find a way to rig this toy to work, but until then it will remain unusable to us. I was really let down by this toy.
