it worked for what i needed, but it was definitely a bit...jank? LOL. the end was a bit rough, needed more sanding, and the overall quality seemed lacking. definitely get what you pay for haha.

Great little retainers for when I need one. The o rings are a little fiddly but when you insert from underneath its not a big deal

I'm not sure what everyone is doing to eat their tongue rings so quickly? I did end up swallowing mine, lol, but it was after over a week of wearing it (where the o-ring never came off until its final moments, even while eating/drinking/talking/sleeping). I was testing how durable it was to plead my case to keep it in while intubated for surgery, but if you're only wearing it for a few hours, I wouldn't worry about it coming out.

Flexible and comfortable. Only complaint is one end is quite wide compared to the other.

Does the job I like the flexible ones better I think these slide up and down if I don't have the O-rings on properly

I have bought these multiple times over multiple years to use as retainers in my vertical industrial as they are excellently priced and despite being a little long no one notices them. Sadly, they are so invisible that I tend to lose them like bobby pins. Over time I have noticed issues which mean I can't quite give 5 stars this time around - the o ring groove is useless as the rings don't stay put and come off at the slightest provocation, which I imagine is an issue if you have this in your mouth where there is way more movement! They also attract a lot of ear gunge with prolonged wear, presumably related to being acrylic. However for the price, it's really not going to stop me repurchasing

Super meh. They fell out the second I began speaking and the o-rings are so small they were going through the fistula anyways.

Two words... swallowed it. Just swallowed the retainer the o ring stayed right in place stuck to my tongue

I love that it has a little groove to keep the o-ring in place. Doesn't come out at night, the post is just long enough, and it's super low profile as a retainer should be. The flare could be a little bigger, I tried it out at the end of the day and pulled it straight through my tongue at first. Once it settled it was fine though, just be aware of this if you're someone who fiddles with their tongue post a lot.

Great if you need to hide your tongue piercing at work, you can hardly feel it.
