Great Idea, Poor Execution

I believe this is a great item for beginners for two reasons: 1) they're fun and sexy without being too scary or intimidating; and 2) while some may think it sucks that my lover broke them apart when he lost his composure I think it's great that a newbie could find some peace in the fact that they would never actually be STUCK if the situation demanded that they get out of them.

They were fun and sexy and now I'm on a search for a stronger pair that my sexy man can't get out of so easily!

Use

This product is best used as a suggestion. By that, I mean, if you're truly hoping to hold someone with these then you will only find disappointment. I would consider these a novelty item. I would also add that these would be best used by beginners.

Design / Craftsmanship / Material / Size / Fit

The design was fun. The black lent the cuffs to a more "dark" side of sex while the metal rings and strong plastic buckle sets the tone for serious bondage fun. One cuff says, "Don't" while the other says, "Stop." This is a great addition, I think, for the person who is both mentally & visually stimulated. I know the written word does wild things to me!

As for how well made the cuffs are... that leaves a little to be desired. The cuffs feel great on spec; unfortunately, they didn't hold up to my initial test run. The cuffs unfortunately, or fortunately as it were, after my partner's arousal levels went off the charts.

Performance

I used these cuffs to tie my lover down with a rope binding the cuffs to the headboard. Unfortunately, my rather randy partner (what I can I say? I was using these in conjunction with the Men's Ball Buster Kit (#SE201400) and some lube!) kind of came unglued and broke the cuffs apart. Now, upon inspection later it does look as if the plastic buckle simply came apart and they can be used again. But, this clearly showed me that if I'm going to get my partner that fired up I'm going to have to find something better to tie him down with.

Care and Maintenance

These obviously don't require the care and maintenance that other toys might. A simple wiping down with a damp cloth would most likely clean them up nicely.

Packaging

The packaging was fun, current and contained a flyer for other fun items.
Follow-up commentary
These are okay for the first time but considering how easily my husband gets out of them (though I know he's strong) and how scratchy the edges are... I would spring for a more expensive pair that are stronger and softer to wrists.
