Haursen's Review of The SiliStretcher
Is the
SiliStretcher (SSR) right for you? Does it live up to all the hype surrounding it? Will investing your money in this device pay off in the end?
These are all great questions any discerning man will need to ask if you are considering investing in this device.
I will do my best to give an honest review of the device from a perspective of a PE veteran (since 2014) and my third real PE device (the first being Cable Clamps and the second being
Stealth Innerwear) after using the SSR for over a week.
I will review using categories such as:
- Investment/Warranty
- Ease of Use
- Quality of The Materials & Innovation
- Comfort Level
- Shopping Experience
I will also use a star rating from 1 (worst) to 5 stars (world-class)
Let’s start with investment.
Investment/Warranty
The SSR claims to be an All-Day Stretcher (ADS). This is my first stretching device so I did not have anything to compare it to. However, when I researched further, Lightning (one of the owners of the site) stated that the SSR is affordable compared to the popular
Phallosan.
Phallosan’s investment is $339.00 (minus shipping) while the SSR has an investment of $199.00 (minus shipping). You would save $140 off the top.
Phallosan’s
Package includes:
- Elastic belt
- Suction bell in size L with L-sleeve condom
- Suction bell in size M with M-sleeve condom and assembled tension clip
- Suction bell in size L with S-sleeve condom
- 4 sleeve-condoms (1x S, 2x M, 1x L)
- 2x protector caps
- Tension clip
- Suction ball with 3-way valve
- Instructions for use
- Measuring template
- Travel bag
SSR’s
Package includes:
- 2.5 lb. (1.3kg) starter weight set and hanging arbor
- All-Day-Stretching belt for six-way stretching
- Four SiliSleeves (Two Long and Two Short) and one SiliCap
- MOS Grip gripping powder
- Silicone lube for maintenance
- Discrete carrying bag
- Optional inline tension scale for monitoring ADS tension.
While you may get more equipment with the
Phallosan, you will find out that the SSR is more versatile as a PE device. You can use the SSR not only as ADS, but you can also use the SSR as a penis
hanger (you would start off with lightweight). Matters of Size (MOS) Research and Development is introducing the option to hang heavier
weight in the future.
In addition, MOS gifts you with four silicone penis sleeves that can function as a healing device to wear all day and sleep in (which I have done both successfully) and the various sizes can help you depending on your goal is either length or girth. MOS doesn’t stop there...they also give you the unique MOS gripping powder so you can say goodbye to using clothes or tissue paper to use as a grip for PE exercises.
Recently, MOS has added an inline tension
scale to help you determine the correct pulling strength of your SSR. What forward thinking this is!
The biggest factor in investing in SSR is the warranty. While
Phallosan offers an equipment warranty for a two-year warranty on all parts excluding vacuum condoms and protector caps. MOS offers an unheard of warranty in the male enhancement business...a lifetime guarantee. This impressive guarantee gave me the assurance that I wasn’t a number to them...I was a client who is valued for investing in their product and they stand behind their products and to me, this makes MOS untouchable.
Investment/Warranty Final Score: 5 out 5
Ease of Use
When you invest in the SSR, you will receive in the carrying bag a slip of paper with a bit.ly hyperlink address to their product page. The page will display videos to help you in fitting the SSR properly.
You may need to watch them a few times in order to make sure you understand the concept of vacuuming properly. If you get stuck, the MOS forums are available for questions and the moderators/admin are fast to answer your concerns.
After I spent time with the videos, I was able to fit the SSR. The downside is that I had little girth so the SSR would slip off. I learned that I had to squeeze the air out of the SSR’s
sleeve and then fit it. The suction is doable yet will still slip off if I put too much tension. Other users may have had success in high tension...unfortunately, I wasn’t one of them.
I came up with the solution to use a self-adhesive wrap around the SSR and now I can use high tension with no issue. I still have to wrap which is the only downside.
Ease of Use Rating: 4 out of 5
Quality of The Materials & Innovation
The parts of the SSR are durable and sturdy. The vacuum compartment is well-designed and fool-proof to where if you were to accidentally pop-out the piston, you can fix it easily by placing it back in.
The straps are solid in their design although the one
strap that has the clip on it (at least the one I had) wasn’t threaded on completely so I have to be careful when removing it from the padding. The velcro holds snuggly when placed and does not yield at all.
The 4 silicone sleeves (SiliSleeves) are admittedly my favorites because you can use them for other uses such as a version of the
Uncle Jim’s Wrap or as noted above to sleep with them on. There is a silicone
cap (
SiliCap) that you can wear during
hanging to prevent fluid retention. You will need to be careful though...the
cap is thin and will tear easily. Mine has a small tear so I will need to trim it.
MOS makes the claim that the SSR has taken 15 years to create and there is a reason why...the innovative option to stretch in six-directions. Thus far, I have stretched (with the waist belt on) on the left and the right. I have also stretched going down on my left leg and my right leg.
To my knowledge and my research,
Phallosan cannot do this option. Bravo to MOS.
Quality of the Materials & Innovation: 4 out of 5
Comfort Level
When I wear wrapped SSR, I do not feel any pain whatsoever. Even before I started to wrap, there was no pain or pinching. Now bear in mind, if you decide you want strong vacuum suction and suck your glans into the vacuum, you may experience pain. I have read of others who have done this. For me though, I am not going to go that extreme.
Comfort Level: 5 out of 5
Shopping Experience
You can tell a lot about a company by their customer service and MOS is spectacular in this department. When I ordered the SSR on MOS store page, a chat agent was available to answer any questions I had. I had the option to have MOS text me to follow my order through the mail.
I would receive frequent updates on the status of shipment all the way until when the
package was delivered. MOS even admitted they had a mistake when they did not include an extra SiliSleeve and sent it to me free of charge.
MOS also offers upgrades to their products (I do not know if they will be free to us as clients) however if they do, this would be another way of setting them apart from other PE device companies. I have been very pleased with their customer and shopping experience.
Shopping Experience: 5 out of 5
Final Thoughts
Because this is an honest review, I need to give full disclosure that MOS is offering us as clients the incline tension
scale if I write a review. While this is a great incentive, you as a reader still deserve the truth about the experience of the SSR and to see if this would be a product worth investing in.
I hope I have answered the lingering concerns you may have as a shopper/investor. I invite you to join the MOS forums to ask questions that this review did not answer and do your own due diligence as I did...I do not regret investing in the SSR and this is what it is...an investment...I want to be the very best version of myself in my sexual development and the SSR is helping me to do that.
Final Score: 4.8 out of 5.0
