How we tested the best BDSM yokes

Testing BDSM yokes was an absolute pleasure – not only for us but also our sex toy testers and army of freelancers! Firstly our freelancers provided some invaluable info on the yokes that we were reviewing. They weren’t afraid to give some honest, unbiased, and truthful critiques. Perfect! Our sex toy testing team broke the yokes down, looking at all aspects of them, from the positive high points to the negative low points. Once we’d spent tens of hours researching, testing, and studying these BDSM bad boys, we were able to put together our well-informed, well-thought-out, and thorough review!

A Closer Look at the Stockroom Adjustable Yoke

Stockroom Adjustable Yoke is a simple yet exciting BDSM accessory that is made up of a metal bar, two leather fleece-lined bondage wrist cuffs, and a fleece-lined leather collar.

It keeps your arms in a raised position, away from your body, not allowing you to have much of a range of movement no matter how hard you try!

The length of each side of the yoke is adjustable, so you can make sure that it fits you perfectly. It also disassembles into three pieces making it extra easy to store and transport.

Pros

  • Simple and clean design
  • Easy to put on and remove
  • High quality materials
  • Breaks apart for storage/transoprt

Cons

  • Quite expensive
  • Locks/snap hooks sold separately

My verdict

If you want something that’s customizable, easy and comfortable to wear, and made out of premium materials, then the Stockroom Adjustable Yoke is just the thing for you.

Because of the overall quality of it, this BDSM yoke is fine to wear for as long as you need to wear it. The materials are easy to clean and feel as great as they look.

The main issue is that the Stockroom Adjustable Yoke doesn’t come with any locks or snap hooks to fasten the actual wrist straps or collar, rendering the whole thing a little bit pointless. The locks/snap hooks are sold separately, and while they don’t cost much, you would think that they would be included with the yolk itself!

You should buy the Stockroom Adjustable Yoke if you...

  1. Want a top quality BDSM yoke
  2. Love the feel of high quality steel and leather
  3. Want a yoke that can be easily stored away

You should not buy the Stockroom Adjustable Yoke if you...

  1. Are new to bondage
  2. Are looking for a more affordable yoke
  3. Have a larger body

A Closer Look at the Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set

The Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set features adjustable restraints that allow you to dip your toes into yoke style restraint play.

It consists of a buckle-fastened adjustable collar and cuff restraints that are tailored to fit most people. There are three D-rings on the collar plus one on each cuff to which you can attach the 32 inch lead.

And if you need to get out of the Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set in a hurry, it also has a quick release clip for fast removal! Perfect for all you playing options!

Pros

  • Super adjustable
  • Quick release clips
  • Very affordable

Cons

  • Not the strongest restraints
  • Chains could be longer
  • Not for more experienced users

My verdict

If you want a bondage yoke that has all you need in it for your first time, the Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set has your back. It has a collar, cuffs, chains, clips, buckles, and D-rings, all of which can be used in various ways to customize your naughty experience.

While it isn’t the traditional BDSM yoke, it’s fantastic for beginners, as it gives you enough freedom that you have some movement, but it’s still unforgiving enough to ensure that you don’t get too carried away thinking you have your freedom!

Granted, it might not be the first choice for those that are more experienced with bondage yokes: The restraints aren’t the strongest, and the chains could be a little longer, but these are only nitpicks really. But overall thought the Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set is a great and super affordable starter set if you’re just wanting to try out BDSM yokes!

You should buy the Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set if you...

  1. Want a yoke that allows a little movement
  2. Love adjustable and comfortable collars
  3. Are looking for an affordable BDSM yoke

You should not buy the Bondage Boutique Collar and Cuff Set if you...

  1. Are looking for stronger wrist restraints
  2. Need the chains to be a little longer
  3. Want a rigid BDSM yoke

A Closer Look at the Bondage Boutique Black Rose Restraint Harness

I’m a big fan of the sleek and sexy design of the Black Rose Harness from Bondage Boutique! This adjustable yoke is perfect for exploring upper body bondage!

Use the wrist cuffs to restrain your partner’s wrists behind their back or in front of their chest, depending on where you want them! The restraint panel also has 4 sets of D-rings, so you can adjust the intensity.

On top of that, this BDSM yoke has an O-ring, so you can add a lead if you like to take your sub for a walk!

Pros

  • Multiple D-rings
  • Padded, buckling cuffs
  • Can be worn two ways
  • Possibility of attaching a collar

Cons

  • Might not stand up to heavy duty play

My verdict

Compared to the other two yokes, this one is the most versatile as you can use in the forward or backward position and even attach your own restraints to the other D-rings!

It’s also great value for money at over half the price of the Stockroom Yoke, but keep in mind that it might not stand up to heavy duty play like The Stockroom Yoke! I would say this is a great BDSM yoke for intermediate level bondage.

You should buy the Bondage Boutique Black Rose Restraint Harness if you...

  1. Want to explore full upper body restraint
  2. Prefer a yoke with some movement
  3. Are looking for a more versatile yoke

You should not buy the Bondage Boutique Black Rose Restraint Harness if you...

  1. Want a solid BDSM yoke
  2. Prefer locking restraints

Sex and Metal Secretary Yoke

If you’re wanting something classy, then the Sex and Metal Secretary Yoke is a great choice. Why? Because not only does it feature an industrial design aesthetic, but also it has an artisan craftsmanship edge that really makes it stand out from the crowd. The cherry red steel neck is attached to a collar and two wrist straps. Everything is fully adjustable too, meaning you can make it fit no matter what size you are!

Comparing The Best BDSM Yokes at a Glance

We’re all have different priorities when it comes to BDSM yokes, here’s how my top three measure up on different features.

Price/value for money

The overall cheapest BDSM Yoke is the Bondage Boutique Faux Collar and Cuff Set, so if you want a beginner or budget-friendly yoke, I recommend this one. However, I would say that the Bondage Boutique Black Rose Harness is better value for money, as it’s only a little more expensive, a lot more versatile and higher quality.

Experience level

If you are looking for advanced level bondage, I highly recommend The Stockroom Adjustable Yoke as it’s the only one out of the three that’s rigid and is designed to be locked into place. I would say the Bondage Boutique Black Rose Harness is great for intermediate players and the Bondage Boutique Faux Collar and Cuff Set is perfect for beginners!

Versatility

If you want a bondage yoke that can be used multiple ways, I would recommend the Bondage Boutique Black Rose, as it has multiple restraint attachment points and can be worn two ways.

 

 

Using a BDSM Yoke Safely

BDSM yokes are amazingly fun, naughty, and exciting! That’s just a fact! But when you’re using them it’s super important to keep safety at the forefront of your mind, no matter how horny you are! So let’s go through how to use your bondage yokes safely!

Make sure you get their informed consent!

Before strapping your partner into the bondage yoke, make sure that you talk with them and you both understand what is about to happen. You both need to know what you’re getting into and what kind of thing to expect. It’s pretty vital that you’re both on the same page!

Establish a safeword!

As we’re sure you can imagine, being in a BDSM yoke for quite some time can get a little bit taxing and tiring – no matter how fun it is! So if you ever need to stop and take a break, you need to establish a safeword. That is, a word that when spoken indicates that you need to stop and take a break. If you hear your partner calling out the safeword you need to stop whatever you’re doing straight away and take them out of the yoke!

Aftercare is important too!

Looking after your BDSM yoke is important if you want to be able to use it time and time again. So after each and every use it’s important to check that everything is still working as it should be and there’s nothing that could cause any damage or harm. This is an easy enough task to do while cleaning up!

How to use a BDSM Yoke

BDSM yokes look kind of scary and intimidating at first, don’t they! But they’re actually not that scary, and using them isn’t too tricky. But we’re going to go through a few of the main points, just in case you do have any questions about using your yoke.

Before anyone gets strapped into the bondage yoke, it is important to ensure that the yoke is in perfect condition and good to go.

It’s time to get that bondage yoke strapped on! Make sure that you adjust it, so it’s comfortable for you (or your sub).

Know when to stop!

Understanding each other’s limits is essential when using bondage yokes. You both need to understand when enough is enough. That’s part of the reason why you need to establish a safety word and respect your partner’s decision if they choose to say it. It ensures that everything remains safe and fun, and that no one is pushed further than they want to go.

How to clean BDSM yokes

Just think about all the exciting stuff you and your partner get up to when a BDSM yoke is involved! The chances of it getting a bit dirty are fairly high - that's why you need to make sure that you keep it clean! Here are a few handy resources that will help you keep your bondage yoke sanitized and hygienic!

Porous
materials

Soft plastic, hard plastic, jelly, rubber, Cyberskin are all porous materials, meaning that small particles and bacteria can penetrate the surface. This makes it impossible to completely clean these types of materials.

Therefore, it is recommended that you use a condom with these types of toys, especially if you are sharing them. Clean these toys with mild soapy water and dry gently with a towel. These materials are more easily damaged, so be sure to be gentle and make sure your toys are completely dry before storing.

Non-propous
materials

Silicone, glass, stainless steel and some hard plastics can all be washed using a mild soap (like you would use on your body) and warm water. Just be careful if your toy contains electrical parts.

Silicone and stainless steel toys without any electrical parts can also be boiled for sterilisation.

The toys with electrical
components

If your toys contain electrical components, be extra careful when cleaning them and always check the instructions provided with the toy. You can use a gentle cloth and soap to wipe or sex toy cleaner or cleaning wipe to down your toy, making sure that no water comes into contact with the electrical parts.
