This ring is bulky. It's made out of thick TPR, which ranks a 4 on Eden's safety scale. It holds up well over time and while it's more porous than silicone, it's preferable over many other materials such as cyberskin or jelly. The good news, besides being compatible with not only water-based lubricant but silicone lubricant, is that it's phthalate-free.

The bad news is the shape of the ring. The ring is intended to add "girth"--all this translates into is it being thick and heavy. It really hugs a cock and while it adds thickness it only adds it to the base of the cock. Sitting on top of the ring is a beak that sticks out 2 inches off the toy. It's flexible, being able to bend and twist while still having a solid and unyielding base where it's connected to the ring. While you'd expect the beak to be able to flicker, all it managed to do was lay flat against the shaft of his cock.

On top of the beak there is a wide cylinder which houses a small waterproof one-speed bullet. This cylinder is covered with four rows of nine "nubs", the only way for them to make contact against your clitoris is if you pull your lips as far apart as you possibly can, even then you can't really tell that they're there. I hate being tied to a toy. I want things to be easy and I want my hands free to explore, not stuck prying my lips apart. The bullet is all right, it had a nice shallow buzz to it that wasn't all that loud but it wasn't enough to get me off. Mix the lack of the power with the awkward shape of the clitoral stimulator and it leads to sexual frustration from not being able to have an orgasm. While it lacked enough vroom to get me to the big "O", the vibrations did carry through into the beak and the ring.

The cock ring|T-licious ring kept him hard, that's really the most important thing. He maintained a solid erection, while the box also boasted claims of adding "stamina" there wasn't a difference in the amount of time it took to bring him to orgasm while wearing this ring than when wearing any other ring. A plus, however, is that it's stretchy, but unfortunately it didn't stretch enough for him to be able to wear it the traditional way (over the cock and balls). It was awful for missionary position but proved to fair much better during doggy style. He repositioned it so that the beak rested against his testicles and while the bullet never made contact against my clitoris, it gave him that that extra 'umph' he needed to have a really great orgasm.

A big surprise to this toy was that it smelled like baby powder, I half expected it to be scented with 'eau de chemical' but instead my nose was greeted by that familiar smell of changing diapers. Being a parent that finally gets to get laid, the last thing you want to think of while having sex is your children and their diapers. I would have much preferred a toxic or industrial smell over baby powder. To make matters worse, after years of being subjected to Nemo and having a diseased imagination, the toy starts to look like one of the cartoon seagulls.

To me it was bulky and awkward. The design was flawed when it came to stimulating my clitoris but it was perfect when it came to stimulating his cock and balls. The vibrations were mild enough, the bullet was wide enough, and the beak was long enough to give him the full-bodied orgasm he craved.

When I first received the T-licious ring I was a little afraid the TPR would discolor but it has stayed a perfect translucent clear since October.
