Love cuffs - handcuffs discontinued by NMC Ltd - review by Ms. Spice

This toy is meant for couples who are interested in light BDSM play. Those who are into more severe types of bondage probably wouldn't be satisfied with this type of toy . It is wonderful for playing in the bedroom, hotel room, etc, but I wouldn't recommend using it in the bathroom because it is made of faux fur and can be a bit of annoyance to dry and clean.

I'm the type of girl that's always interested in light domination play and this toy was perfect because it looks incredibly girly and simplistic, but still allows my partner to dominate me. I would recommend this for couples who are interested in experimenting with BDSM and for those who like light domination play. This toy can be used for both straight and gay couples.

The design of this toy is immensely fun. There are two metal cuffs covered by pink faux fur and are bound by a small metal chain. There is a lock part on both cuffs. If you do lose your key , there is a release part on both cuffs that allow you or your partner to free yourself. It is super easy to free yourself, all you do is hold the release and the ridge part that locks the toy slides out. I liked this part because I have a tendency to lose small parts, and I can still use it without fear of getting stuck in the toy. The cuffs can be adjusted to fit most sizes by using the safety release. You simply move the release until you find a size that is comfortable.

Because it is made of metal, the cuffs should last a long time if taken care of properly. The fr part of the toy will remain on the toy (unlike some cuffs that "shed" their material) and in good condition, if you of course, take care of the toy. The metal is solid and has no give whatsoever. I love to use when I'm in doggy style or similar position; however, when I'm in a missionary, position, the cuffs have a tendency to cut into my wrists, even if I adjust the size. So, if you're not into that type of play, make sure you are in a comfortable position or you may have unattractive bruising/cuts the next day. Anyway, another positive about this toy is that is has no smell. It tastes like metal, so unless that turns you on, I wouldn't recommend tasting it.

It should fit most men and women's wrists unless your a larger sized person; if that's the case I would not recommend this toy, because it has a tendency to cut into your skin if it is too tight.

The key that is included is also metal; remember to dry it completely if you use it in the water!

Again, this toy is perfect for those interested in light BDSM play. I like to be controlled in the bedroom but I've always been a bit intimidated by whips and chains,etc. This toy is perfect because it looks very beginner user friendly and is wonderful for people who share my interests. I've always been enamored with handcuffs but always somewhat scared of getting locked in and losing control. These cuffs are wonderful because if I do lose the key, I can simply slip myself out of the toy in about thirty seconds. However, the toy is sturdy enough to remain locked when I want to be locked up in it. Overall I would say this toy met my expectations.

If you do not desire to tie up your wrists, you can use it to tie up your ankles. It should fit most persons' ankles, but be sure to not adjust it too tight, because it still will have a tendency to cut into your skin and leave some unfashionable marks.

I wouldn't recommend this for water play because the fur can be a hassle to dry; it will take about one to two days to air dry. Also, because the actual cuffs and key are made of metal, if not dried completely, the material could rust and your cuffs will be ruined.

This toy really shouldn't need cleaning unless you manage to get fluid on it somehow. If that does happen, I would recommend running under some soap and warm water, and allow to air dry for about one to two days. I would not wash this toy in washer and dryer because it can and will rust. I would not boil this toy or bleach it. I don't think I would use toy cleaner wipes or liquid, but I haven't tried it so I'm not sure if it would damage the cuffs.

It's not a discreet toy- seriously, who's never seen handcuffs before? But it can be stowed away in either a purse or a piece of luggage. I wouldn't recommend taking this to the airport, not because I'm prude and care what security thinks, but because it is metal, it will for sure set off the alarms and they may question you about possible criminal intent or something moronic along those lines.

You can store this toy virtually anywhere because it will not attract dirt/lint/etc, will not ruin your other toys and is incredibly portable.

The cuffs are packaged in a cardboard box with a lady featured in some attractive lingerie on the front. There is a small window on the front that shows the cuffs. It's not too discreet but it's also not too blatant. You could use it as storage, but it will not last too long. Instructions are placed on the top of the package but I don't think they're entirely necessary.

Because it is made of cardboard, the packaging is recyclable.

I loved this toy and throughly enjoyed using it. I got these a while ago as a gift and they have been spectacular. They are so simple to use, but so much fun! I would recommend this to anyone who wants to try light BDSM but may be too intimidated to use other forms of restraint.
