Do you like the thought of your partner covered in their own drool with their mouth held wide open just for you? If so, this gag is perfect for you. On the other hand, if drool grosses you out this probably won't be the best toy for you. This gag is probably best suited for beginners, especially those who are nervous about being able to breathe. It would be great for anyone looking for a toy to help them transition into using gags. Although it is a great gag for beginners, this gag could also be super enjoyable for advanced users.

This gag allows the wearer to still moan, scream, grunt, etc.; but completely prevents any actual talking (regardless of how hard my partner tries to form coherent words while wearing it). Additionally, it does an excellent job of holding the wearer's mouth wide open. I absolutely love teasing and kissing my partner while she is wearing this gag. It allows me full access to her mouth, while at the same time, completely preventing her from kissing me back (no matter how badly she wants to).

The silicone has an excellent soft and almost velvety texture that stays comfortable on your cheeks even when the gag is fastened tightly around your head. The silicone straps stretch a tiny bit; this helps the gag remain comfortable even if you are struggling against it.

The clasp is easy to use, and the option to lock it seems exciting (although I haven't actually used it with a lock before). Unfortunately, the clasp can catch and pull hair if you aren't careful while putting it on. This isn't a major problem but, if you or your partner have especially long and curly hair (as mine does), it is something to pay attention to while putting the gag on in order to avoid (unintended) hair pulling.

I have found the ring to be a great size for most people. It definitely holds your mouth wide open without feeling like it is overextending or forcing your jaw open.

Unfortunately, it is fairly easy for the o-ring to rotate sideways in the mouth, completely undermining the function of the gag. To prevent this from happening, all you need to do is lightly rest your teeth against the o-ring.

For me, the need to be actively involved in keeping myself properly gagged does distract slightly from the feeling of being controlled. But, my partner feels differently about it. She says: "I am not bothered at all by the fact that the ring can rotate a bit in my mouth. Honestly, I kinda like it because if I ever start to panic, or choke on some spit, I can immediately flip it sideways without needing to use my hands. Then I can close my mouth and compose myself or swallow the spit that was making me choke. Knowing I have that option in an emergency helps me feel more comfortable being restrained and gagged at the same time."

This gag is super easy to clean. I usually wash it with mild soap and warm water and let it air dry before putting it away. For when a more thorough cleaning is needed it can be placed in boiling water for around 10 minutes to sanitize it.

I usually just store it in a drawer with some of my other restraint devices. I've never had a problem with it collecting gunk/lint/dirt/dust while in storage, but just to be safe, I still rinse it with some warm water before use (better to be safe than sorry, especially with something going in your mouth).
