Explore - bdsm kit discontinued by Whipsmart - review by Anica

When you work all day, your husband works all day, and you have children, your intimate time seems to dwindle to nothing. When finally, the kids are in bed and you have time to yourselves, you are tired. At least, we were. Sex was becoming a chore! There were several times where we each heard the words, “I'm too tired”. Part of it was that we were simply getting bored.

I'm so thankful for EF, because, when I get bored like this, I cruise the site for something to add to our sex life. I really enjoy being tied up or handcuffed, there is just something about having little to no control when you are with someone you trust. And, though I loved our fur lined cuffs, they were starting to hurt my wrists. When I found the Explore BDSM Kit by Whipsmart, I was so excited. Something new, something that looked like it didn't hurt your wrists!

Without telling my husband, I ordered it. When it came, I took it out, tried it on, got the tethers to work just right for our bed, and then hid the kit. Later that night, my husband came out of the shower to find me, in one of his old work shirts, tied up with a blindfold on. It was probably one of the best nights of sex we've had. He found that he really liked being in charge, in control. I found that I really respond to being told what to do.

The restraints and tethers seem to be of good quality. We've had no issues with them, and they've been used a lot. The restraints are very comfortable. The tethers can be adjusted quite a bit. You can allow them to be more slack, for a bit more arm movement, and you can make them so they are not, so all you can do clench your fists and scream out in delight. The blindfold seemed a bit low quality. In fact, one side where the strap attaches to the blindfold was falling off and was literally, holding on by a thread. Nothing a little mending couldn't fix, and now it fits well. I doubt that every Explore kit has this problem as it seemed like a chance issue in manufacturing.

I love this product and the fun it brings to our sex life. My husband will call me from work once in awhile to tell me that he's thinking of tying me up again. It's nice to have that adventure back. I plan on giving it as a present to all the bachelorette showers I go to this year.
