Well, it's been about a week or so since I've posted. Quick recap, started in a HTv4 knockoff, amd it was ok, but really chafed, and had some pinch points; moved on to a knockoff cobra, and Holy shit, so comfortable. Unfortunately the lower quality of a knockoff showed through when the plastic cracked five days after putting it on. So, immediately went and looked up the best reviewed metal cages on Amazon and found this (TERNENCE Stainless Steel Small... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GLP4PFM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share).

Just got it in today and hot damn, way more comfy than either plastic cage. No pinching, no pain, not even uncomfortable. I love the open cage design, the weight of the steel, and the open design. Just wanted to share. Should be way better going into locktober and no nut november...and maybe denial December as the wife mentioned. Fun times ahead.
