Review Summary:
Clearly, Extreme Restraints knows the fetish/bondage/BDSM market and community. And although their focus is on that specific niche, they still do a great job at providing a wide range of sex toy products. Customers can find basic sex toys amongst the bondage items, however the website is quite obviously marketed towards and favors the fetish niche. Within this context, the site is organized well, and is easy to navigate. It has various useful features, and with the inclusion of a links page, information on events, product guides, and a regularly updated blog, this website provides an active community vibe. The individual product information is basic at best, however there are usually helpful customer comments and reviews. It is noticeable, however, that the majority of customer reviews are 4 to 5 (out of 5) stars. In comparison to product reviews on many other websites, this is a relatively high average, and therefore should be taken into account when using these reviews to determine whether or not to make a purchase. That being said, the reviews and also the customer testimonials attest to the great job Extreme Restraints does at providing quality products on a quality website.
