What is an under the bed restraint system?

Honestly, this whole word construction sounds very complicated when it actually isn’t.

The whole system is a combination of straps, clips, rings, and cuffs that, when assembled and positioned, resemble an ‘’H’’ shape.

When put together – you will see that this is one simple restraint system.

The under-bed restraint system goes under the mattress, and whenever you’re ready to use it, you just pull the cuffs out.

About this under the bed restraint system

First, I’d like to thank Betty’s Toy Box for giving us this system in an exchange for an honest review.

The system consists of the following:

one connector strap that goes in the middle. This strap is 60 inches (152 cm) long

4 straps that connect to the connector strap. Those straps are also 60 inches (152 cm) long

4 wrist/ ankle straps with hooks

4 straps are already connected to the middle. connector strap

All the straps, including the connector strap, are adjustable. That way, this system fits any size mattress.

Our bed is a queen-size bed and it fits it perfectly.

Straps are made nylon while the hooks are metal. Cuffs are made of some similar fabric, from the outside. Inside is made of some furry fabric.

Leja says cuffs are comfortable to wear, also during the play.

How long will it take you to assemble the under-bed restraint system?

The first time we did it, it took us like 4-5 minutes, and like 2 minutes every next time.

However, if you decide to leave the system under the mattress – you will only need to pull out the cuffs which will take you maybe 20 seconds.

That is what I call fast…and convenient

Convenient? Let’s go through some situations in which you could really use this system.

You want to try some light bondage,

You want to get into some light bondage but this, but that, but, but, but. Too many buts.

You have to buy bondage ropes, which have to be proper, you have to take your time and learn bondage knots and then you have to have actual time to tie all the knots and then, in the end, have sex.

With the under-bed restraint system, there is no bondage rope, no knots, no need for extra time. Pull it out, cuff your partner and TA-DA, you are ready to go.

but we have kids,

As there is practically no setup time, you can start your session or scene in no-time. Do your thing and when you finish, just tuck the cuffs under the mattress.

Before you know it you’ll be preparing breakfast or putting your kid to bed.

and the kids can come home any time, unexpected.

Emergency situations happen, whether we want it or not. That can be kids coming home from school earlier than usual or your mom calling.

Imagine that you tied your partner in the knots – and it took you a decent 35 minutes to do it. You are about to wield the flogger and there goes knocking on the door.

Jumping and running around is how I would describe what happens next.

That is why I think that for a casual user, an under-bed restraint system like this is a great choice.

Setup is easy and fast as well as cleaning and storing later. The whole system is very easy to hide, in the case of unexpected or unwanted guests.

I just want to get back to the quality of production and material.

Personally, I think Sportsheets is doing a great job (just take a look at these restraint cuffs) and they did it with this system too.

The only concern I have is how this under-bed restraint system, precisely the cuffs, would endure extreme scenes. Not few, or occasional, but often and extreme.

How the cuffs would endure and how the cuffs would feel for the restrained partner, under extreme conditions and movements.

But, there is a simple fix to it.

You can just swap the cuffs with your own, private cuffs (again, these cuffs).

Our experience

So far, we used the under-bed restraint a couple of times. We did not leave it under the mattress, so I had to set it up every time.

Not a big issue, it took me a few minutes.

The first time we used it, my wife laid down on the bed, face down, and in no time she was bound and restrained.

Completely helpless.

I had already prepared the vibrator, Wartenberger wheel, flogger, and the cute, small wand that we have. She did move a bit, as I was using the pinwheel, but not more than a few inches. Same with the flogger.

Her comment later was that the whole thing is very hot, but also in a way a bit infuriating as she literally couldn’t move.

For me, as I was walking around the bed, with the flogger in my hands, the whole thing felt like I’m in a sex/ BDSM dungeon.

Very sexy, under the bed restraint gave the whole thing a new flavor.

After trying the system with her face down, I wanted to try it with her other way around. Again, in no time, she was face up and cuffed, helpless, and totally exposed.

This time, I put a blindfold over her eyes along with noise-canceling headphones.

First few minutes, I was lightly caressing her thighs and breasts with flogger drapes, just to let her get used to the position.

Later on, I switched the flogger for riding crop and continued to caress her, occasionally smacking her with the riding crop.

After a while, I turned on the mini wand and continued with that until she orgasmed. Twice.

The third time we used the under bed restraint system, she was also bound, face up. This time I pleasured her orally.

Imagine the force on the system as she was about to orgasm but could not pull her legs together.

How else can you use an under the bed restraint system?

We read an article on Kinkly about this system and they mention a few more uses for this system.

It can be improvised sex sling

You can use it as a collar and a leash

You can only use the cuffs to restrain wrists or ankles

We did not try that, however, it looks like it is possible!

Final thoughts

At first, I was skeptical of this system.

I thought it is complicated and unnecessary if you have restraints at home and that it won’t bring anything new to our sex life.

I was wrong.

First, what I really liked is the fact that it made me feel like I’m in my own dungeon, very sexy.

Second, this system is everything but complicated. Under the bed restraint system is simple to set up and convenient to use.

And the third thing that really got me is that new dimension it brought to our lives. It is very versatile.

We tried a few of those systems – cheaper ones, from eBay and they were nowhere close to this one in terms of quality.

In conclusion, this under bed restraint system is an investment worth getting.

You can get it for 52.99$ (down from 69.99$) at Betty’s Toy Box. And if you use our code SPICES10 you’ll get another 10% down, which makes this deal a bargain.
