I bought a Restorex and have used it about 3 months. I find the base very sticky to the skin so the skin pulls tight unless you maneuver the Restorex and skin just right. Then the angles are limited to basically top, bottom, or the sides. I also find the length required to be able to capture the glans is pretty long. Anyone with less than 4.5 inches under glans when stretched out is going to have difficulty. And, the tilting mechanism pulls too much against the skin for the glans to stay clamped when you don't have the length.

Too me, the basic idea is perfect. Stretch then bend to one side opposite of the curvature.

If I had it to upgrade I would 3D print the base with a circular groove that fits a circular washer type base for the stretching mechanism. That way, the angle could be infinitely adjustable with just the loosening of a couple of screws. In the process, I would eliminate all of the painful pinch points in the process.

The stretching mechanism would be re-designed to be shorter for the smaller guys and with optional inserts for the big guys. Also, make it more reliable so it does not hang when trying to compress it. Presently, I can get to the 2nd notch and I insert a roll of gauze to enhance the bend effect.

Then there is the clamping latch. Move it to the other side so when you are working to adjust the unit your finger does not push down on the latch and release the glans.
