What is a Cock Ring?
Cock rings are most commonly used to help a man keep an erection. Put around the base of the penis, or even below the balls, the cock ring slows the blood flow out of an erect penis so it’s harder and lasts longer.
However this review is written from the female perspective and is really about how wearing this vibrating cock ring – made by Tenga, who also make the single-use masturbator Tenga Eggs – can pleasure your partner during sex.
What’s the Benefit of a Vibrating Cock Ring?
We ALL know how important clitoral stimulation is for the vast majority of women to be able to orgasm during sex, but, somehow outrageously, the average man’s penis doesn’t have any kind of clit-stimulating attachment. It’s a huge design flaw in my opinion.
That’s where wonderful inventions like clit suckers and magic wands come to the rescue. Using a sex toy on your clit during sex means you can enjoy penetration and clitoral stimulation together, and hopefully achieve the mind-blowing experience that is known as a blended orgasm.
However, these sex toys only work in certain positions and you generally have to hold on to them. Clit suckers in particular can be hard to keep in place if you’re being vigorous due to their small openings, and magic wands tend to be fairly bulky so using them during your classic missionary style sex is pretty tricky.
We looked for some hands free options, including the We-Vibe Unite which we conceded wasn’t great for this purpose, before we found the TENGA SVR Smart Vibe Ring Rechargeable Vibrating Cock Ring on Lovehoney.
TENGA SVR Smart Vibe Vibrating Cock Ring Review
So first off, this cock ring is made from stretchy silicone with a two-inch silicone covered vibrator to the front. On the vibrator is the on/off/change intensity button (hard press for on/off, quick press to cycle through the five different vibration intensities and two patterns). It charges up with a USB charger in an hour, and then you can use it up to an hour which is great.
Placed over the shaft of the penis, the TENGA SVR Smart Vibe Vibrating Cock Ring vibrator can make contact with and stimulate the clitoris while you’re having sex. Because of the length of it, it might not stay in constant contact with man-on-top positions, but it does a good job. If the woman goes on top; you can grind into it to your heart’s content and not lose contact and this is where it really comes into its own.
It’s stretchy and quick/easy to get on and off, and you can re-position it to the underside of the penis if you’re doing doggy style, for instance.
Pros of the TENGA SVR Smart Vibe Vibrating Cock Ring
- The TENGA SVR Smart Vibe ring is hands free so you can have sex in any position. It works particularly well with the woman on top in a seated position. Honestly, wow.
- It’s small, so you can pop it in a pocket or bag if you are going away, and it’s not going to take up your luggage limit
- You can use it with your hands too – so again, a good thing to pack for a weekend away
- It’s got a good amount of vibration for something so small and the battery lasts well
- It’s extremely quiet and you probably won’t notice any noise from it while you’re having sex
- It’s stretchy, so – I’m told – not uncomfortable to wear, but stays in place
- Presumably it also has the added effect of decreasing blood from from the penis, assisting in maintaining an erection, too.
Cons of the TENGA SVR Smart Vibe Vibrating Cock Ring
- It’s not as effective at producing clitoral orgasms as something which stays in constant contact with the clit and obviously the vibrations aren’t as crazy as mains powered.
- It’s fairly pricey at £79.99 full price (although currently cheaper on Amazon).
- It has to be controlled via the base rather than remotely, which might be an easier option sometimes.
