Definitely works for keeping them still 💯
For a basic beginner peice this is fab. A smaller, easy to pack discreetly in a bag. Straps are sturdy and comfortable and very easy to get in to.
Much better quality than I expected, the straight piece actually has a couple plates in it which is great. You can use a few different ways and is fun experimenting with it.
It's very secure and insides of the wraps are soft against your skin
Bought this on a whim along with some other toys and had lowish expectations - it's actually great! We use it more than more expensive (and more fiddly) toys. Don't think it'll last forever, but breaking restraints is a good story! Easy on and off with velcro, and it keeps your partner just how you want them - ready for the good stuff.
