- Shiny. This thing is so shiny I was shocked! The shininess kind of works as a stim in and of itself.
- Relatively quiet. I'm really sensitive to metal-on-metal sounds so I was worried this would bother me, but it really doesn't. It makes a quiet sort of rustling noise, but nothing offensive to the ears.
- Comfortable. I'm not a big wearer of rings and actually find them quite uncomfortable at times. While this ring is certainly big, it's not so big that it pushes on my finger and is unpleasant to wear.
- Easy to stim with. Once you get it going it spins freely and allows for quick, repetitive movements
- Subtle. It just looks like a cool, kind of alternative-looking ring to anyone who doesn't stim. I'm not much of a fashionable person but chain jewelry seems to have come back recently and this ring fits in perfectly with that.
- Spins kind of pathetically at first. Mine was super stuck at first and didn't really want to spin more than a half turn at a time. Luckily I remember from spinner rings I looked at in the past that rubbing a little bit of pencil graphite under and next to the spinning part will work as a lubricant to make it spin better. Once I did that it spun freely. Ideally, I would like to see some instruction included for brand new stimmers who aren't aware of this trick.
I can see myself wearing this on a daily basis. It fits in great with my style kind of accidentally, it's fun to stim with, and it's comfortable. It might occasionally need some more graphite to keep it spinning smoothly but it only takes a few seconds to get it ready to go again so it's well worth it to me.
