Beginner C-sling - cock ring discontinued by Tantus - review by MidwestCouple

We were searching for a first cock ring, and I thought this one would be great. It has enough stretch to allow beginners to put it on and take it off without too much trouble. It's a very straightforward product.

This ring is made out of silicone, so it doesn't have the nasty odor that lesser materials have. It has just enough stretch to make putting it on easy, but it still holds its shape enough to allow it to restrict blood flow. It is a little sticky and can pull hair, so I would recommend putting a little lube on the inside of the ring.

The thing that makes this ring different from all the rest is the fact that it has the extra "wing" on it that is supposed to stimulate the perineum. The only problem I found was that it didn't really offer much in the way of stimulation. It did rub lightly in that general area, but it didn't really do anything for me. As far as the fit of the product, I was very happy with the fact that it had a larger diameter opening than some of the other rings since this was my first time putting one on. With a quick Google search for the proper technique and a few minutes spent in the bathroom, I had it on. The one down side to it being easy to put on is that it isn't quite as restrictive as I had hoped. Don't get me wrong, it did help with the firmness of my erection, just not as much as I had expected.

Since it's silicone, clean up is a snap. Either toss it in the dishwasher or boil it.

One thing I've noticed since we got this ring is that it fits better since I've lost weight. When I first tried the c-sling, it pushed my testicles forward far enough that it actually kept me from thrusting all the way in during intercourse. Since we first bought it, I've lost 45 lbs. and I've noticed that it doesn't push my testicles as far forward. It still does to some extent, but not as bad as it did before.

We've tried this ring out a few times since we bought it. The first few times were kind of lackluster. While it did increase the firmness of my erection, it didn't make me last any longer and only increased the firmness a little. This is most likely due to the fact that the ring fits a little looser since it's for a beginner. I've found that it is a nice aid for masturbation, or if my wife is in the mood but my head's just not in it for some reason. It's enough to keep me hard even if my brain isn't staying focused on the task at hand (a rare problem, but every now and again, work stress takes over). We will probably keep this ring in our toy collection until I venture out and buy a new one. If I do replace the c-sling, it will probably be with a basic silicone ring that is a little tighter fitting.
