Fifty Days Of Play

Fifty Days Of Play

From the title of this post it doesn’t take much for you to conclude if you’ve been listening to the media hype that this game is clearly inspired by the 50 Shades Of Grey phenomenon which has been sweeping the globe.

The bold black and white packaging of Fifty Days Of Play alludes to bondage & restraint with a rather attractive couple engaging in Femme Domme play.  She has him under her control using his leather tie.

A promise of what lies beneath perhaps?

The rear of the box gives a brief explanation of the game, ecplaining that there are “50 invitations for pleasurable adventures for loving couples who want to play”.  A tempting thought and one which promises to add a little spice to your boudoir activities.

Once the lid is lifted you are presented with a stiff plastic liner containing 5 sets of cards each with a different colour ranging from white to black.  Each one of these sets consists of 10 envelopes.  Alongside these is a dice which has 6 different circular colour patches.

You spotted the discrepancy!  Yes there are colour corresponding to the envelopes and an additional one which is pink and gives the roller of the dice free range over the choice of task they wish to have performed for them or on them.

With me?

Seriously, this is a very straight forward game.  You select a card based on the roll of the dice and your lover has to perform the task concealed in the envelope.  No boards to try and lay on uneven surfaces or counters which may move as the board does on the bed.  The game is also not a competitive one which makes for a more relaxed atmosphere although someone with a competitive nature will have to enjoy the thrill of the ride.  ;)

At this point I should point out that in low light the yellow and white sides of the dice are virtually indistinguishable so it may not be possible to play this without having the “big light” on.  Lol

As an example of the extremity of the challenges given I will quote one of the “White” task cards.  Wishing On A Star, you write down three wishes that your partner or both of you can fulfil.  A nice way to ease you in to more intense play later.

Eventually you will roll the dice and be required to select a card from the “Black” section.  Don’t worry you aren’t going to be challenged to whip your slave to within an inch of their lives, well not unless you want to do so with the roll of a pink spot.  ;0

I pulled a Black card from the set of 10 and it read “Get Jiggy With It” this turned out to be a suggestion that you slip in some Ben Wa Balls and more importantly, it kinkily suggested that if you didn’t have any to hand you should shop for some.  What a great idea, sex toy shopping together.  Toys aren’t just for singletons.  ;)

I’m sure you will agree the concept of this game is simplicity and fun, a few “Task” cards coupled with a bit of your own imagination can lead to lots of naughty fun.

One suggestion I would make is that you read through the cards before embarking upon a few rolls of the dice is that you quickly read through the cards together in daylight hours to discover what you may need to equip yourself with before the game starts in earnest.

For example there are cards referring to rope and vibrators so you may need to check if you have the required equipment before you embark upon your voyage of sexual experimentation.

Initially this game may appear to be one which should be played in an evening but I see this as a Daily Task game.

Why not try slipping a card in to your lovers suit pocket/handbag at the start of the day and eagerly await their return at the end of the day.  Oooh, so naughty and exciting to spend all day anticipating them fulfilling their Task.

What can I say, it’s simple, enjoyable and a great way to spice up both new and long term relationships.  Roll that dice baby!

 

 

 
Je Joue Mio Cock Ring

Je Joue Mio Cock Ring

The Je Joue Mio is a silicone cock ring with multiple vibrating functions. It recharges through its two metal control buttons using a recharging dock held in place by a magnet. Because the recharger can only be attached in the correct orientation charging is pretty fool proof. Also, unlike inductive recharging of sex toys the charging is fast because of this direct connection.

The Mio cock ring comes packaged in a classy looking purple and white outer box which contains the matt black inner packing with its white Je Joue Legend and logo. It’s presented nicely and in a way that makes it a great sexy gift idea. I’d be more than happy to receive it as a present from a partner, though their motives might not be entirely selfless as you’re both going to enjoy this sex toy.

The silicone material used to mould the smooth lines of the Je Joue Mio is soft and yielding making it possible for the medium sized opening to accommodate quite a large girth of erect penis comfortably. So although the size of the un-stretched Mio is not the largest cock ring in my collection it doesn’t feel too tight when worn.

This Je Joue cock ring is simple to operate with three buttons. “+”, “-“ and a central button with a wave legend on it to change between functions. You turn the cock ring’s vibrator on by holding the “+” and turn it off by holding the “-“. The manual says each of these needs to be held for three seconds but I found about half a second was enough to turn the Mio Cock Ring on or off.

There are five levels of vibratory power which as with most sex toys actually means a higher frequency of vibration because the motor is simply run at a higher speed to impart more energetic vibrations to your cock ring. The six different pattern settings consist of two escalating modes which increase and decrease and four pulsing modes of varying frequencies. Plenty to suit all tastes.

The cock ring is compact so you’ll find no problem in wearing the vibrating section above your penis for missionary and below it against your scrotum to ensure you stimulate your partner’s clitoris during doggy-style sex.

Because the buttons take a very positive press to operate it can be a little fiddly to change settings during use. That has to be my main criticism of this sex toy, though it is pretty much my only real criticism of the Je Joue Mio Cock Ring.

In use the Je Joue Mio is a little powerhouse that provides stimulation for you and your partner as well as helping you stay erect and harder for longer in its firm grip. You’ll both be impressed and delighted by the way in which the pliable but firm silicone transmits vibrations to your bodies and turns any penis into a powerful living vibrator.

Because this is a totally waterproof sex toy it’s easy to clean before and after use. The simple smooth design means there are no nooks and crannies to collect residues from bodily fluids or lubricant. On the subject of lube you should apply a good quality water based lube that we’d recommend all sex toy users should always have one close to hand.

A good cock ring is a great purchase because both you and your partner will enjoy it and this is a fine example of where cock ring technology is today. Powerful, compact and simple to operate.

 

 

 

 
Mini Fairy Wand Massager

Mini Fairy Wand Massager

Masturbation Fascination – The sex toy review that nearly wasn’t …

I never quite got it…the Hitachi Magic Wand that is. I’ve got one and it is great for massage and Alex uses it quite frequently on my back. But as for masturbation, well it’s a little like taking a sledge hammer to crack a nut. Lol

It has only 2 speed settings and a head which would probably be large enough to massage an elephant’s clitoris. It’s cumbersome and unwieldy, not at all sex toy like more like a power tool.

In fact I believe the only reason it caught on in the USA was because women could get away with buying it as a massager and using it as a sex toy because in some States adult toys aren’t sold, in fact the stores are banned from selling them.

Therefore a massager that could have a dual purpose would make great sales. And from there the myth that this is a great sex toy was born. These days there are cheaper more targeted sex toys on the market that do the trick far better.

Unlike the Magic Wand the Fairy Mini Wand has variable speeds (not just the two of the Hitachi) which are controlled via a dial on the shaft and is mains powered the same as the Hitachi.

The Fairy measures 25cm in length with a head circumference of 14.5cm. It sits nicely in your hands and unlike its larger cousin is easier to direct to your pleasure zones.  With the Fairy Mini wand having a dial-style speed control I was careful not to get immerse it in water, I washed the head under a running tap and wiped the base with a toy wipe before sneaking off to the bedroom.

Alex had just shagged the ass of me and my most intimate parts were well lubed, so I thought it would be an opportune moment to let the Fairy Mini wave her magic wand over my pussy. ;) I still felt horny!

He went off to the bathroom to clean up and I reached in to my bedside drawer for my little friend.  I didn’t know what to expect, having used the Hitachi and being disappointed after reading all the praise it had been given would this vibe fair any better?

With the sun cutting through the curtains, casing a glow across the bed I turned the dial and settled back on the bed, legs spread in readiness. A slight turn of the dial started the Fairy Mini wand, she is a little shaky on low frequency and vibrates strongly in your hand.

I didn’t realise this is because she is like a bull being held back at the gate, ready to charge. When I turned the dial a little more the vibrations transmitted to my hand all but stopped and the power output was amazing!

With my free hand I coated my clit with Alex’s juices which ran freely from me. I moved the head of the vibe between my pussy lips and it fitted inside like it was made for me. The head was now concentrated on my clit and the vibrations were absorbed by my swelling bud. A smile played on my face. This toy was good…very good.

Fucking marvellous!

I tried a little gentle side to side movement and this hit the spot. The vibrations were dancing over my clitoris and bringing me closer to orgasm with every second. I started to feel flushed, hot, steaming. The tingles started. I turned the dial a little more, the vibe still had more to give…

Suze didn’t, with a guttural whine and body contorting spasm I came…I saw…It conquered.

It took minutes for me to regain my conscious thoughts again, my clit still tingling from the experience. I have never used a clit vibe with so much power and versatility. This is without doubt going to be a favourite of mine winning a permanent place in my bedside drawer.

Girls if you get chance to buy one of these, don’t hesitate, don’t even think about it…just do it. ;)

 
Rocks-Off Hot Lips Cock Ring

Rocks-Off Hot Lips Cock Ring

This novelty cock ring from Rocks-off stands out from most of their offerings in that it’s not powered by their usual RO-80mm bullet. That is partly because of the small size of this cock ring and partly down to cost. Unlike the rest of the Rocks-Off sex toy range this cock ring is aimed at fun and frolics and therefore pitched at an almost disposable price. Unlike the other high quality, durable designs the company offers.

The pair of red lips that make up the ring itself is made from TPR, not the silicone of the more expensive Rocks-Off products. This is perfectly safe and phthalate free so despite the bargain price you’re not compromising quality in that way. The “Micro Vibrator” which powers the red Hot Lips is tiny and comes fitted with batteries. It has one speed and is most definitely not waterproof. This is why you can get this vibrating cock ring at such a reasonable price.

Whoever designed this cock ring knew about men’s anatomy or had a very happy accident because the inner shape of the cock ring seems to have been created to apply less pressure on the blood vessels (like the dorsal artery) in your penis and on the corpus spongiosum (the soft tissue underneath which holds the urethra and through which ejaculate flows at the point of climax). Of course if you have a penis of huge girth this is less noticeable because the ring will be stretched more but it’s an interesting and unique shape.

In use the micro vibrator buzzes like and angry wasp and while it sounds full of furry it is of course limited by the tiny battery and the fact that the unit is sealed. So while it is fun to wear for both you and your partner its lifespan is limited.

You’ll need to use a water based lube if you find the TPR catching on your skin or hair, water based lube is always the safe option.

I can’t say this is the most earth shattering cock ring I have worn, the frequency of vibrations means they don’t seem to penetrate very deeply and while Suze found the buzzing on her clit OK it wasn’t by itself going to create a mind blowing orgasm.

We found this cock ring good fun to use and because it fits almost any penis size we think you will too.

 

 
Doc Johnson Mood 7 Function Bullet

Doc Johnson Mood 7 Function Bullet

I’m loving the matt black packaging on this new range of products from Doc Johnson.  The previous packaging from them has been rather dated and quite pedestrian, it’s nice to see that they are bringing their image up to date and developing a classy look.

Staying with the packaging theme, they have developed a colour coding guide on the back of the packaging which enables the user to quickly ascertain the key features of the product.  An aid to quick selection without the complications of having to read an appraisal of the product.

I’m all for a quick thrill.  ;)

Rather than “Bullet” I would describe this toy as a “Cigar Bullet” which as the name infers, means the vibrator is longer than a standard bullet. Which also implies there are an increased number of potential applications for this bullet vibrator.

Quite often a bullet’s application is predominantly for clitoral stimulation because of the nature of its shape and size.  But with the Doc Johnson 7 Function Bullet its length offers so many opportunities.

Doc Johnson have considered not just the looks of this Mood bullet in its streamline organically decorated shaft but the silky soft finish.  Unlike a lot of other bullets the Doc Johnson Mood 7 Function Bullet has a very tactile velvety surface which feels soft, silky and warm against the flesh.

Here are some of its finer points.

  • Offers quiet but powerful vibrations on 2 x AAA batteries.
  • Is waterproof for bathroom pleasures.
  • Can be used with water based, silicone and water/silicone hybrid lubricants,
  • With 3 x constants & 4 pulse/constant speed settings you are going to find one to suit your mood.
  • Can be used for both vaginal and clitoral stimulation.
  • Simply hold the button in the base in for several seconds to terminate when required.
  • Is easily secreted in a purse, pocket or glove box for personal pleasure on the go.  ;)

Now for something to get me in the mood.  (I couldn’t resist)

Follow me, my Doc Johnson Mood 7 Function Bullet is waiting for me on my bedside draws it may be mid morning but I like an orgasm for my elevenses.  Lol  There aren’t many jobs where you can sneak off and have a good wank.  Lol

It’s another dismal day out there and so dark that I’m not even bothering to pull the curtains today.  Why bother there is nobody about.

The perfect day for some self pleasure don’t you think?

And it was bloody cold.  I made my way to the bathroom with the 7 Function Bullet clasped in my hand.  After holding it under the warm running tap the warmth spread through the bullet’s casing making it warm to the touch.

After a quick dry I wandered back to the bedroom to enjoy the vibratory release of the morning’s tensions.  This was a quick flick and I left on my sweatshirt but kicked my tracksuit bottoms and panties to the floor.  I didn’t look too hot wearing my socks and navy top but I was nice and warm as I pulled the duvet over my lower half.

After all nobody’s watching this is for me and me alone.  My naughty indulgence.

The Mood Bullet slipped between my pussy lips without notice, the heat was still present and compared to my own.  I nudged my excited clitoris with the tip and felt the blood flow in anticipation.

I probed my depths with the tip of the vibrator engulfing most of the shaft, simultaneously depressing the button in the base.  The constant speeds felt good buzzing deep inside my vagina.  But this was only a quick pit stop.  I wanted some clitoral fun and I knew the Doc Johnson Mood bullet could do the trick.

With the shaft fully lubed up I placed the vibrating tip over my engorged clitoris.  It felt good just letting the strong waves of vibration work their magic on me and my clit started to pulse.  I stepped it up a little working through the vibratory patterns until I reached the last but for me the most arousing.  ;)

The low level escalation of the vibrations made me come up in goose bumps and take a sharp intake of breath as I started to succumb to their attentions.  It was a perfect pitch, so in tune with my body that I found myself almost panting along with the vibratory melody.

I could feel the chorus line heading my way as the rapture of the rhythm captivated me.  A few more bars and I would be there…

Engulfed by the crescendo I wilted there on the mattress, spent and happy.

The Doc Johnson Mood 7 Function Bullet can be used by anyone with a desire for pleasure, with a little imagination it can be what you want it to be.

 

 

 
Monkey Spanker Duo

Monkey Spanker Duo

Sometimes the simplest of sex toys can be the most effective and that was certainly the case with the original Monkey Spanker.  You simply lube up your manhood and slip the round end of the masturbator over the head of your penis.

The soft inner flange massages you as you move your hand up and down your shaft, what could be simpler?  But so effective.

Well, now Monkey Spanker have a new Duo model which incorporates a bullet vibrator to add the your masturbatory pleasures and it can also be used by you lover as a clit stimulator.  Even better.

“Of course then we turn to the use of the Monkey Spanker as a toy for your partner and you as a couple.  When the Monkey Spanker Duo is at the base of your cock the vibrations you feel are on your balls when the handle rests on them. That’s pretty tingly! So the”

Lelo Tantra Feather Teaser

Lelo Tantra Feather Teaser

Seduction and foreplay can really set you up for great evening of sex and with the Lelo Tantra Feather Teaser that’s exactly what happened to us. Styled in a very similar fashion to the Lelo Sensua Suede Whip this feather teaser is built to the same high quality and presented in a box that has more in common with a high class gift from a top end store than most sex toys.

The glossy outer black box with silver lettering contains a textured inner box and within that is your Feather Teaser, wrapped in embossed paper. The teaser itself has a chromed ball at one end, smoked acrylic shaft and a chrome ferrule which holds the luxurious black feathers to the handle. So, a very classy looking pleasure object from Sweden. This is the sort of sex toy that you can give as a gift and you would be delighted to receive, it’s classy and has an aura of quality.

At about 8 inches long this particular sex toy is not large but it doesn’t need to be according to my other half. We tried it first with Suze laying face down on the bed and me wielding the teaser on her exposed flesh. Perhaps because my hands are quite large I found myself wishing the handles was a little more substantial, however this did not stop me wielding the teaser in a way which has Suze squirming.

When we changed roles she said she found the small handle very practical allowing her to twist and twirl the teaser easily whilst playing it up and down my skin. She started in my hair and across my face, then down my back in a variety of sweeping and swirling motions that were made possible by the thick, soft feathers in the tickler and the petite handle.

A word about the feathers here. Unlike your run of the mill cheap tickler there are lots of them, and two different types. One type appears to be ostrich, soft and fluffy. The others are longer and more rigid but still soft and flexible like the greater secondary feathers that line a bird’s wing. It all adds up to a very versatile and pleasurable experience having this feather teaser applied to your skin by a skilful exponent of the art of foreplay like Suze.

After my Back Suze told me to turn over so she could attend to my front. Starting at the neck this time she slowly worked her way down my body, teasing my chest, stomach and eventually penis. The versatility of this teaser really shone through. The high quality means you get the mix of textures in the feathers mentioned above which means the receiver of the titillation experiences everything from the luxurious caress of the whole teaser to the delicate touch of a single feather.

I honestly didn’t think that such a simple sex toy, that is often included as part of a kit when made by other manufacturers, would be so enjoyable. Of course I’ve enjoyed this sort of toy in the past but Lelo yet again prove they know how to perfect a sensual object such as this.

The Lelo Feather teaser is compact, oozes quality and begs to be used. You feel yourself running it through your hands as you use it such is its allure. This isn’t cheap in terms of other ticklers but in my experience you will not find better in terms of quality, presentation and appearance.

 

 

 
Slap And Tickle Beginners S & M Kit

Slap And Tickle Beginners S & M Kit

This bondage kit from Rocks-Off encourages you to “Slap & Tickle” your lover into obeying your every command. The rather classy black and red box contains a selection of S & M themed items aimed at taking S & M beginners on their journey into kinkiness. To be honest as regular readers will know, we are not beginners any more so I was a bit worried this kit might be a bit too gentle for our tastes. But I’m a professional sex toy tester so I have to put aside personal tastes and review these things dispassionately, it’s a hard life! Lol

Here’s what I found when I opened the kit.

  • I satin blindfold with a broad ribbon to tie it at the back of the wearer’s head. It has the Rocks-Off logo and “With Passion In Mind” printed on it, not sure that was necessary.
  • A pair of rather “foofy” looking black and red cuffs with a 20cm chain connecting them
  • There’s a feather tickler on 30cm stick
  • A black and red crop
  • An RO-100mm Soft Tip Bullet

That adds up to a lot of stuff to play with but an initial feeling that it might be a bit of a novelty kit rather than something that you can enjoy for a bit of S & M.

Alex decided that he was in charge and told me that I was the one who would be blindfolded. I do love it when he takes charge hehehe. ;-)

First he blindfolded me and to my surprise the satin ribbons made the wearing the blindfold comfortable and more sensual than the elastic band blindfolds which often come with kits like this. The fabric meant my face could breathe a little too so I didn’t feel sweaty like you do with a vinyl blindfold.

I was told to lie on my front and felt my arms being pulled around my back to be secured with the cuffs. Surprisingly the frilly cuffs hold you quite firmly. If you wanted to slip out of them you probably could but rather than the thin strands I expected to feel biting my skin there was in fact a broad band of strong elastic holding me. Later inspection showed the chain between them is connected to two D rings fixed at one end and with a clip at the other end. This allows you to unfasten the cuffs quickly, say if you want to switch them from behind to in front of your sub. It also means you can half the length of the chain for more restriction by passing the clip through the D ring and fastening it to the D ring on the cuff at the fixed end.

All good stuff so far.

First Alex teased me with the feather tickler. This was lovely, gently and sensuous. We have a variety of ticklers, some of which are a bit short of feathers and don’t feel as luxurious as this one. Then he applied the leather crop, sliding it across my skin from the soles of my feet, up my legs, ass and back until he was caressing the skin of my neck. The crop meandered back down onto my waiting backside for the inevitable thwacks that started gently then built in strength. He takes me a little further each time we play like this and I know he enjoys pushing me with slightly harder strokes each time. He’s such a bad man.

When I’d had enough and his sadistic side had made me squeal a little too loudly he stopped and ordered me to turn over. This was where we realised how useful it was that the cuffs clip and unclip so easily.

I heard the buzz of the RO-100mm bullet just before it was applied to my clitoris. Alex gently but firmly pushed his way between my legs and entered me with the bullet vibe electrifying my clit.

This is a very surprising kit. Often we see kits of all sorts aimed at the adult market that sacrifice quality for a large number of items in the box. They are usually quite a let-down and you will therefore not see reviews of many kits on this site because they are sent to the “failed review” section. Or to put it another way the bin! Lol this kit is different, it’s not for the hard core BDSMers out there but for beginners and anyone who enjoys a bit of gentle bondage it’s a reasonably priced, practical kit which offers a variety of sensations and sensual pleasure to both partners.

 

 

 
Rocks-Off RO-Mona Bullet Vibrator

Rocks-Off RO-Mona Bullet Vibrator

Rocks-Off are a company to watch at the moment, having released a new and luxurious line of products in their new livery which is classy and seductive.

The Rocks-Off RO-Mona is one of two similar new additions to the RO family and looks stunning mounted in its velveteen coated casing.  Once slipped out of the box you are presented with a product catalogue which has your activation code on the rear.  You simply log on to their site and enter your code to activate and download your 6 Month Warranty.  Smart thinking!

You also have a black satin monogrammed drawstring bag in which to store your new bullet vibrator.  And best of all…your 1 x AAA battery is supplied complete with the toy so you are ready to go as soon as you tear open the box.  ;)

The RO-Mona is sturdy, looks beautiful with its pink frosted finish and is textured suggesting that it holds lube well too.  There I go being practical again.  Lol

So lets have all the dirty details of the RO-Mona…

  • Is fully waterproof for that bit of bathroom pleasure.
  • Operates on just 1 x AAA battery which comes with your vibe.  Oh yeah!  And you get a use by date on the box too.  lol
  • Offers 7 x functions including 3 x constant speeds, 1 x escalating, 3 x pulsing I’m sure you will have a favourite.
  • Features easy to operate one button interface, simply hold in the button to stop the vibrations.
  • It’s 10cm in length with a 2cm diameter.

So let’s take Mona off to the bedroom and see if she can make me moan-a …

I could do with a bit of cheering up, it’s bloody miserable out there, foggy and cold with the promise of snow.  What I need to spice up my day is a good seeing to and as Alex is at work there is only one course of action.  MASTURBATION!

Let’s get some porn on and get down and dirty.  We’ll watch that Marc Dorcell DVD I’ve just found in my porn drawer.  I know there’ll be condoms but the girls are normally hot.  ;)   So it spins in the DVD drive I pull the curtains to feeling a bit naughty indulging in a bit of afternoon delight.

I press play and slip under the duvet clutching my RO-Mona which was on top of my bedside drawers awaiting attention.  Nice.  The first is a beach scene somewhere tropical with white sands and some good looking girls in bikinis.  Ooh, I like her with the mousey hair and ample bossom.  Bad girl!

The Mona is warming between my naked thighs and I’m now as randy as fuck.  A little nipple play is in order and they are as proud as chapel hatpegs today.  I pinch and roll my right nipple, squirming a little as my pussy starts to moisten.

My left nipple now demands attention and I repeat my actions bringing the soft pink bud to arousal, my areola shrinking and pimpling under my ministration.  As you can imagine I’m now as horny as a teenager watching porn for the first time.

Fuck, those girls are gorgeous not an implant in sight.

This vibrator must be ready by now.  I slip my hands between my legs, retrieving the Rocks-Off Mona with expectant delight.  I press the button in the base and the vibrations fire up.  A couple more presses of the vibrations button and I find a pulsing mode which feels good against my nipple.  I try it against the other and watch as they both poke skyward engorged with blood.

I gently slip the RO-Mona between my legs and inside my pussy enjoying the shallow vibrating penetration.  It feels good as I enjoy the ripples of vibration massaging my vaginal entrance.  But I know where I need the stimulation the most…

My clitoris is demanding some attention and I oblige, applying the tip of the bullet to my pulsing bud.  I shudder as contact is made with the tip against my clitoral hood.  I can feel the humidity of my moist pussy on my hand.  No lube required.  ;)

Gentle movements of my hand from side to side increase my pleasure as my toes start to tingle, my lower body responding to the rhythmic beat against my pink button.  I hold my breath as orgasm takes me over and my toes curl upwards.

A few twitches and sweet release…

Bullets are versatile and the RO-Mona is no exception, slip it in to your handbag or glove box for a bit of portable fun.  This vibrator works for all levels of sex toy user and is a looker.  Nice one Rocks-Off!

Jimmy Jane Hello Touch

Jimmy Jane Hello Touch

I was eager to test drive the Hello Touch wearable vibrator from Jimmyjane when I was asked by them if I wanted a sample to review.  It’s a long time since I played with something very similar and I had to look back in the annals to find my review, right back to 2008 to be precise. http://alexsuze.com/?p=851

It was a product called the Fukuoko Power Pack and I seem to recall at the time that it was quite a cumbersome thing to wear.  Back then the speed settings were controlled via a large dial on the wrist band and there were 3 vibratory tips to place on your fingers.

When I opened the packaging of the Hello Touch I was pleased to find a much more trimmed down and less industrial version of the finger vibrators.  Instead of wearing what resembled silicone snowshoes on your fingers the Hello Touch has slimline vibrators each with a pair of silicone bands to secure them in place.

The power pack itself is slimmer, more refined with a slim push button interface and instead of it being secured by Velcro as in the Fukuoku, it’s a stretchy nylon sleeve.  Far more comfortable to wear and easier to clean once used.

Your Hello Touch is tidily presented in a lightweight plastic case and comes in 3 parts, the control unit complete with wired vibrator tips, lightweight elasticated wrist band and internal battery compartment  for inside the control.

Don’t worry about assembly it’s straightforward as the battery compartment is marked out with the poles for the batteries (which rather nicely are supplied with the product.) and the internal casing will only slip inside the control one way.  But if you are slightly bewildered you can follow the handy pictoral guide which comes with the Jimmyjane Hello Touch.

Oh, I forgot to mention you also get an individually cellophane packed double sided storage pouch to keep you vibrator in.

Unlike the Fukuoku the Hello Touch is a single speed vibrator but it could still pack quite a punch so lets not be judgemental.  The instruction guide offers “serving suggestions” including the use of your index finger and thumb to stimulate the clitoris & g-spot simultaneously.

So before I sneak of for a quick wank lets look at the features of the Jimmyjane Hello Touch.

  • The best feature of all, it comes complete with batteries, harrah!
  • Is easy to operate via the On/Off control unit, be sure to press firmly.
  • Operates via 2 x AAA batteries, so is relatively inexpensive to run.
  • You can wash the control unit but it should not be submersed and the wrist band can be slipped in the washing machine at 40oC
  • One size should fit most fingers, as the silicone is reasonably stretchy.  So no excuse for your partner not to join in the fun.
  • It’s an all round portable toy which is easy to wear and operate and can be transported anywhere in a handbag or even a pocket as it’s so petite.

I gave the control and pads a quick wash with anti-bac soap before use and slipped them in to the wrist band ready for action.

The wind was howling around the slates as I pulled the curtains to and slipped under the warm duvet.  I reached over for the Jimmyjane Hello Touch and pulled it under to warm with me.

I slipped on the finger vibes which were quite restricting, applied a little spit to my clitoris and pressed the On button…nothing happened…I pressed a little harder (which made my finger hurt) and this time the vibrations began.  I found during use that the On button can require a considerable amount of pressure to work.

With the vibes rippling through my index and middle finger I laid them over my clitoris.  The vibrations felt good as I started to slide my fingers up and down the length of my clitoral hood.  Moments later I was reaching in to my beside draw for some lube.

A little lubricant applied to my clit soon rectified the dragging and I was enjoying the sweet vibrations.  A word of warning be careful not to trap your sensitive flesh between your fingers as it’s not pleasant.  Try to keep your fingers well spaced throughout your play.

The stimulation felt good but from a personal point of view I was hankering after more speed and different vibration mode settings.  Perhaps these will come with later models.  But for now I would categorise the Jimmyjane Hello Touch in the Erotic Stimulation category, more foreplay than orgasmic.

As with all new products there are lessons to be learned.  In this case more vibratory patterns would be a bonus and from a comfort point of view, make the finger bands more stretchy.  I found my fingers were going cold and tingling when play stopped.

The Jimmyjane Hello Touch would most probably be vey effective for sex toy newbie or those sensitive to stimulation, I meantime would have preferred more options with the vibration modes.

Another toy which would suit sex toy newbies and those looking for some pre sex fun.

Fetish Fantasy Feather Crop

Fetish Fantasy Feather Crop

Soft bondage and BDSM kit can often be a disappointment even to beginners because of the potential for it to disappoint even the most undemanding of users. So a feather crop? Sounds a bit foofy to me.

Pipedream products produce some really great sex toys and within their Fetish Fantasy range have some great adult products for bedroom bondage and kinky play. They also produce the occasionally turkey and this seemed more likely to be a bit of fun than a toy suited to naughty fun and an enduring place in our toy box.

This feather crop is about 20 inches (50cm) long, the harsh end is a mini PVC paddle 4 inches long and 2.5 inches wide and the tickly end a cluster of fine feathers with a little silver tinsel thrown in to contrast with the black of the rest of the crop. The shaft is a flexible plastic bound with a satin-matt fabric.

Initially sceptical about the product’s ability to deliver anything but novelty value to our fun in the bedroom I was quickly proved wrong. Teasing with the feather end of the crop proved to be controllable and fun. Not tickly at all but stimulating and gentle leading to a sensual start to our enjoyment of this sex toy.

When Suze switched to using the crop end the smoothly finished edges and shiny PVC finish were able to glide over my skin and especially when cold provided a delicious sensation. Her gentle taps on my exposed buttocks began and eventually increased to full-on strokes with the crop. She was able to keep full control because the shaft is quite short and not too flexible.

This is a really enjoyable toy to use and versatile because of the two ends and their different characters. If I have a criticism it’s that when I used the crop on Suze I found the lack of an actual handle (because it’s a double-ended crop) made me wonder if the feathered end in particular might suffer from being grasped in the hand for long periods. Other than that a surprisingly enjoyable and useful sex toy. Not what you would call hard core corporal punishment equipment for full-on BDSM connoisseurs but a nice addition to your bedroom toolkit for beginners and intermediate users alike.

 

 
Lux LX4 Cock Ring

Lux LX4 Cock Ring

I got a sense of deja vue when I received the Lux LX4+ cock ring for review. I’ll explain why later but for now I’ll cover the feature and performance of this rather well presented silicone cock ring.

The quality of this particular male sex toy is evident from the moment you begin to unpack it. A cellophane sleeve protects the satin-matt box that the product arrives in. This box is sealed with a white paper band printed in gold – it reminded me of the sort of seal found on boxes of cigars that I remember my father having when I was a kid. I think this a was conscious design choice on the part of the packaging designers, as was the way the top of the box is hinged. It looks like you ought to keep this male sex toy in a humidor!

Inside you’ll find a translucent piece of paper printed with details of the current Lux range and the manual which is specific top the product. The charger, international plug adapters and the cock ring itself are all held in a dense silicone foam block in the box. All in a very deliberately sombre matt black/charcoal grey. Can’t imagine where they got that colour scheme from, LOL.

The manual is multilingual, echoing the fact that you have adapters for UK (square pin), US, Asian and European mains outlets. This, like the rest of the range is a go-anywhere sex toy aimed at the jet-setting man, an impression further reinforced if you follow the QR code on the packaging to the luxformen.com site because you’ll be treated to a 1 minute video of successful, professional men with perfectly polished smiles … all of whom are depicted as using Lux products.

First impressions over, down to the facts:

  • It’s nice and large with a very flexible silicone that allows even larger guys to use this cock ring.
  • Has a wide area of vibration making it easy to make contact with your partner during use, but not so large as to get in the way.
  • It’s rechargeable anywhere in the world where you can get mains power.
  • Is simple to use, having only one button.
  • Incorporates a travel lock that is activated and deactivated by three quick presses of the control button.
  • Charges in just a couple of hours.
  • Is very powerful.

We tried this cock ring out expecting it to perform well but found it to be very powerful and a great way to enhance sex. For me it’s the perfect size because of its flexibility and as Suze described it “turns your cock into a vibrator” something that some toys claim to do but few achieve.

 

I can highly recommend this particular sex toy to anyone wanting a high quality cock ring. My only reservation being that there are no pulsing modes (which I like) just increasingly powerful continuous vibrations.

Now for the deja vue bit …

If you compare the features of this toy, its dimension and its performance with the Jopen Ego E3 cock ring you would be mistaken for having trouble telling them apart. Same features, same size ring, same excellent vibratory power. OK so the Ego is blue and this is black, the Ego is USB charged and this has a mains charger, the Ego have a scalloped bullet section, this is slightly smaller and smooth … but it might almost be the same device.

The charger for the Lux is rated at 5 volts/1 amp and as the Ego is USB charged I’m not going to try charging the Lux via USB because USB ports before USB three are only rated at 5 volts/0.5 amps. So the Lux should charge faster and that seems to be the case but otherwise I’m guessing the bullet is the same in each.

So which to choose. Well, they are both great toys so I’l leave that decision to you.

 

 

 
PicoBong Mahana

PicoBong Mahana

The design of the PicoBong Mahana intrigued me which is in part why I wanted to get my hands on one.  It’s billed as being both a dual stimulation sex toy and a “couples toy” although I’m not sure how it would work being slightly bulky between you and your partner, and within you.  But hey!  That’s what reviews are for.  ;)

As some of you may know and sex toy novices don’t, the PicoBong range of adult products is brought to you courtesy of the renowned sex toy manufacturers Lelo who have a certain prestige when it comes to adult pleasure objects and for good reason.

This is a company with a range of products aimed at the mid range market, who desire a level of quality at an affordable price.

The only reservation I have about this dual stimulator is the lack of flexibility in the connecting section between the two silicone vibrators, which leaves me wondering how it will fair in play.  And raises the question, would you be able to use it for both vaginal and anal stimulation?

I couldn’t wait to give it a try to see if the firm ABS joint would relent but first let’s take a look at what the PicoBong Mahana Duo Vibe has to offer.

  • Features 2 motors which can be independently set for configurable pleasure.
  • Is operated via 2 x AAA batteries which offer up to 2 hours of play.
  • Has 12 different vibratory modes with several speed settings.
  • Use the + & – buttons to move through the constant speeds and hold the button down to access the vibratory modes.
  • Is waterproof up to a depth of 1 meter.
  • Has a powerful but quiet motor for those occasions where discretion is required.  ;)

I slipped off to the bed room for a quick après Boxing Day wank, the thought  of having another day in the presence of my family was daunting and making me quite tense.  Now what helps relieve tension?  You got it – a session of self pleasure.  Lol

One thing you do have to consider pre playtime is that the speed/mode settings for this toy are on the insertable parts of the toy.  Therefore it’s a good idea to select your setting before insertion, if you attempt after you will need some tissues at hand to wipe the buttons as selection isn’t easy when they are slippery.

Because the ends of the Mahana vibrator were slim and torpedo shaped and I was already feeling a little randy I went in cold without lube.

Once in place I knew my concerns earlier about the restrictive bend on the Mahana were well founded.  The mark of an experienced sex toy tester, I told you so :p   can see problems in a toy before I’ve tested it.  The vibrator wouldn’t stay inside me without I put my thighs together.

I found the PicoBong Mahana kept wanting to spring out of me.  Not only that but the clit vibe end was positioned so as to miss my clitoris altogether.  Rendering all vibration slightly subdued due to missing the target.

Despite these misgivings I continued with my testing, I know from experience that sometimes you just have to try different things to hit the spot.

Unfortunately persistence didn’t pay off which is a shame as with a little more consideration in design this could have been a good product but it fell short on this occasion.

But not being one to give up I decided to deploy the PicoBong on my clitoris as a dual stimulator and oh yes, that worked.  The stiff curve at the end served to guide the Mahana as I massaged myself in to an orgasm with the dual thrumming taking me there.

I consider this a reasonably priced clit vibrator which could also be used to tease nipples but as a dual vibrator it falls a little short of the mark.  Lelo you have to address some design problems and come back with a product which we know you are more than capable of producing.

Jopen Ego E3 Cock Ring

Jopen Ego E3 Cock Ring

There are cock rings and there are cock rings. Or if you like “penis rings” of course, but whatever you call them they are all different. This particular model is of a reasonable circumference that means you don’t feel you’re being garrotted if you have a large girth and manages to incorporate a relatively large and powerful bullet very effectively.

Let me explain.

The Jopen Ego G3 cock ring is a USB charged, silicone cock ring. The silicone used in its construction is soft and finished with a satin-matt surface that gives it a quality feel. Charging in three hours or less the Lithium ion battery provides reliable power to a vibrating mechanism that delivers thrumming, powerful stimulation to you and your partner.

Other features include a travel lock and the fact that it’s fully waterproof.

The size of the opening on the Jopen Ego really attracted me to this particular cock ring. I don’t like to be held too tight by a penis ring, either it has to be very flexible, or have a large internal diameter to begin with to appeal to me. The Jopen E3 has both, the perfect combination.

Here’s how the Ego E3 Cock Ring works.

You turn it on by pressing the clicky switch at the apex of the largest of the five segments that surround its vibrating bullet. I choose my words carefully here because the switch is nice and positive, you can tell you’ve pressed it because of the tactile and clearly audible click it makes. Discreet push-buttons are all very clever but especially when sex and lubricant is involved a positive action and feedback from controls is in my opinion essential. It rather detracts from the passionate moment if you find yourself fumbling with the controls on a sex toy.

When you’ve turned the bullet vibe on a light under the switch illuminates. The constant glow from this illuminates your love making, you certainly don’t need it to tell you that the cock ring is vibrating as even at its lowest setting the vibrations are rather powerful. Pressing and holding the button increases the power of the vibrations, the indicator light flashing faster as you do so until at top speed the light is constant. Whatever sped you choose when the button is released the light goes back to constant again. While a steady light while you’re screwing in the dark is rather kinky and illuminates your naughtiness in a very pleasing way I’m really glad the light is constant once you’ve set the speed – otherwise you’d feel like you were in a very freaky disco.

You can turn off the cock ring by pressing the button once. How do you reduce the power of vibrations? You can’t. The problem with a single button is that there are only so many functions you can cram onto it – on, off and increase is really all you need. Jopen could have added other buttons but then you’re back to a more complicated setup and distractions.

There is one final feature that the control button provides. Press it three times in succession and your cock ring is locked so it will not come on accidentally when being transported. Three times again and it unlocks ready to use. This works most of the time, though unlocking the cock ring was, I found, sometimes hit and miss. Not the end of the world.

When it comes to using the E3 Cock ring I was really impressed. As you’ll have gathered I can’t wear small/tight cock rings so with its reasonably wide opening coupled with nice soft but strong high grade silicone this one was unusually comfortable. Because of my girth it was quite tight but not the uncomfortable vein-bursting pressure that often stops me from being able to review these sex toys.

We first tried the ring missionary with the bullet above my penis and immediately realised this is a comfortable and very powerful unit. Despite the size of the vibrating section it wasn’t uncomfortable pressed between us. Far from it, the smooth curves didn’t dig in and the power of the bullet rocked us both as soon as we began to, er, enjoy ourselves.

When we switched to doggy style and I rotated the ring around the base of my penis we found the stimulation even better for us both. We ground against one another for quite a while just enjoying the stimulation!

In conclusion I have to say that I can find little negative to say about this vibrating cock ring, the occasionally temperamental travel lock perhaps it’s only flaw. I like the USB charging, it’s big enough for me but will fit most guys because the ring is nice and stretchy. The power of the vibrator is terrific and can genuinely be enjoyed by both partners without the weird gymnastics sometimes required with less powerful cock rings of inferior design. The combination of materials, shape and sheer strength of vibration means that like me you’ll be keeping this cock ring close to hand and using it often.

 

 

 
Leaf Spirit Vibrator

Leaf Spirit Vibrator

Or is it a massager?  I’m having problems distinguishing between the applications of sex toys lately.  Lol

But there is no doubt that this is another product in the classy “Leaf” range of pleasure products from Swan.  As I have come to expect with the Leaf range, each product is beautifully packaged in a box which more than hints at its recyclableability.  It resembles a brown cardboard box which you could place in the recycle bin for collection.

But this clever packaging with its green credentials is also of good quality.  The robust manila box carries the Leaf logo with minimalist product information as not to clutter and is secured with a wrap around lid secured with a magnetic clasp upon the side.

When you flip open the box you are greeted by the manual presented in a very nice matt black folder emblazoned with the “Leaf” logo.  Beyond that you find the trademark hessian tote bad containing your product which is hermetically sealed in its cellophane pouch for freshness.

Then you discover a set of global adapters which means you can travel anywhere you desire and maintain power in your Leaf vibrator/massager.  Sounds good to me.  ;)

Your Leaf Spirit vibrator comes in a cellophane pouch complete with Warning sticker that you shouldn’t use silicone lubricants with it.  Good point.  Some silicone toys react to some silicone based lubricants, bets to err on the side of caution and use a water based lube.

Unlike other vibrators of its size, the Leaf Spirit is curved to fit your body which gives me lots of ideas for application.  Ahhhem, but I better get on with this review.

I attached the UK head to the charger and plugged the leaf in to charge.

So let’s take a look what the Spirit has to offer…

  • A 2 hour charge can provide up to 1 ¼ hours of play.
  • Is easily controlled with a raised button featuring Up & Down controls.  Simply hold in the top button to move up through the speed settings and the lower one to go back down.
  • You can terminate the power immediately for those moments when you wish to be discreet by pressing either of the controls quickly or by holding down the lower button.
  • Can be used in the bathroom as this vibrator is waterproof.
  • Is small enough to be slipped into lingerie or a pocket for mobile pleasure.
  • The curved tip of this vibrator just begs to be used on the clitoris.
  • The Spirit is 4” long and 2” wide at its base narrowing to a delightful tip to excite your clit.  ;)
  • Is quiet for a bit of stealth play but it doesn’t compromise on power.

“Let the games begin”…

Given the size of this vibe the only way to test it is to slip it inside the gusset of your panties.  A task for which it is perfectly designed.  It’s petite and unobtrusive due to its curved form and tapering shape.

I decided to slip it inside my panties whilst I worked at my desk.

Well, not quite worked but was indulging my followers on FaceBook Chat.  Bad me.  I selected to Chat and turned on the Spirit eagerly awaiting my first interaction.

As I waited I enjoyed the strong vibrations from my Leaf Spirit as they danced upon my clit.  Sitting on this vibrator was so comfortable because of its petite and body friendly shape which wraps around the contours of your most intimate parts.

My leaf was so snug against my clit it was like I had this toy tailor made for me.  ;)   The only issue I did have was that the control buttons aren’t as tactilely controllable as they should be and you have to guess if you are moving up or down the controls.  One to take note of Swan.

Once speed had been achieved I was fine sitting forward and awaiting my first communication with someone.  But it didn’t take long before someone was asking me what I was doing.  Not wanting to lie I told them I was playing with a new luxury toy.

His reaction was to be expected and before long he was telling me how much he liked looking at my pics.  This added to my excitement in a kinky way and I found myself grinding down on the Leaf Spirit, which felt comfortable and warm as it vibrated between my legs.

I added more speed and my typic,areovbnawl;tuiap;anvn br0ar-[nvraeregva

OMG!

Enough said.

After regaining my sanity I apologised for my incomprehensible outburst.  Lol

This vibe is discreet, petite and perfect for secreting about your person but more importantly it is quite a potent weapon in a girls armoury.  What’s more I can say that this tiny vibrator works on all levels, be you a newbie or an oldbie this vibrator has something to offer.  As they say “Leaf love life”, yes to that!  ;)

 

 

 
Fetish Fantasy Leather Love Mask

Fetish Fantasy Leather Love Mask

Masks have one of two functions, either to mask the identity of the wearer from the rest of the world or as in the case of the Fetish Fantasy Leather Love mask to deprive the wearer of their sense of sight.

This is a simple sex toy but as a mask can be a key ingredient of a BDSM play session it can also be the most important. So how does this offering from Fetish fantasy fair?

Well to begin with the mask is made from soft leather which is comfortable to wear. The side of the mask which rests on the face and eyes is covered in a velvet material that is both comfortable and prevents the wearer’s face getting sweaty – a common problem with cheaper masks. The mask is held in place with a simple elasticated strap, quite thin but thick enough to do the job and not cut into your ears.

I would have liked the leather to have carried a stronger smell as I find that to be a turn-on in itself but sadly the high quality soft leather used to make the mask is virtually odourless.

OK, now for the only real criticism. The mask is a completely flat design, and people’s faces are not flat, for a start there’s a large protuberance in the middle called a nose. So, while the blindfold does limit your vision it does not remove your ability to see completely. A slight change in the shape of this blindfold and one or two seams stitched into it to make the leather follow the general contours of a nose and it would have been perfect.

As it is I would say that you need to use this as a purely an aid to play and if you’re looking to completely deprive your lover of sight while you tease them then you’ll have to find something else. On the plus side this is an easy to use, comfortable and unthreatening product that makes a great beginner’s blindfold.

 
Odeco Totoro Vibrator

Odeco Totoro Vibrator

As soon as I spotted this cute little chap I fell in love with its cuteness.  This is unlike any other sex toy on the market, because it’s actually got a personality all of his own, let me explain before you think I’ve lost my marbles.

The Odeco Totoro has long cute ears housing dual motors just made for clitoral or nipple stimulation and a pair of eyes.  I kid you not.  The eyes act as up and down controls to advance you through the vibratory settings, just watch his face light up.

And when he is turned on his eyes illuminate and his eyebrows light up too creating a little face.  It’s so dame cute you need to see it for yourself.  His facial expressions vary with the modes, having 2 sets of eyebrows helps.  :)

Another feature of the bottom heavy Totoro is that it’s just like a Weeble and resists being pushed over, OK I know some of you may not have a clue what they are.  Lol  I’ll give you chance to go Google it…

…now you know what I mean, but this is an adult toy.  Lol

However, you could quite happily sit him on your bedside table and nobody would guess what fun you both could have.

The Totoro comes complete with a charger but disappointingly no storage bag and the packaging of this product by comparison to their other products is quite frugal too.  But the good news is that it doesn’t detract from its functionality and cuteness.

I suppose you want to know what my little friend the Odeco Totoro has to offer…

  • A single charge will give you up to 2 hours of playtime.
  • Is made from body safe silicone with an ABS base.
  • Offers 3 constant speed settings with 7 vibratory modes, sure to hit your spot.
  • Is quiet yet powerful in operation, the perfect combination.  ;)
  • With glow in the dark technology you can target your pleasure points.
  • Being rechargeable there is no need to purchase batteries and you can keep your Totoro ready for action.
  • Can easily be cleaned using an anti bacterial cloth or anti bac soap on face cloth.  As the Totoro is splash proof don’t submerge in water.
  • Sits nicely in the hand for ease of use.

Alex had been invited on a boys night out and I was going to have a girl’s night in with the toys.  The bedroom was dark save the light from the outside street light which gave a faint illumination to the room.

I turned on my bedside light to aid my retrieval of the Totoro from my bedside draw where I had secreted it following charge earlier in the day.

I ran my tongue between the ears of the Totoro depositing a little saliva ready for play.  A press of the right “eye” button fired the vibe in to action and illuminated the face so I could see the controls clearly.

Extinguishing the light I took the Totoro under the duvet my heart racing, eager to test the vibrator and to relieve myself of the pressure which had been building deep in my groin all day.  ;)   My body was clearly visible under the duvet in the blue light and my nipples stood up proud.

As I lowered the Totoro towards my moist pussy I glanced the top of my right nipple with the vibrating ears and languished in the tingle they were creating in my erect buds.  For a moment I was distracted from my mission.

A couple more presses of the right eye took my Totoro to the maximum constant speed setting and I manoeuvred it between my pussy lips and against my clit.  I quivered at the application of those vibrating tips as they resonated through me.

My clit responded to the vibrations, swelling and pulsating.  The firm but flexible ears sat comfortably either side of my plump clitoris.

The vibrations felt good, giving me a sense of comfort and pleasure and I could feel an orgasm building just like a storm.  I became aware of just how sensitive my clit now was under its protective hood and moved the vibrator from side to side, easing back the hood slightly.

I had planned on trying out the vibratory patterns next but didn’t have the time as my toes curled skyward, my back arched and I quivered
with ecstacy.

Guess I will have to try the Totoro’s modes next time.  ;)

The Odeco Totoro vibrator is easy to use and fun offering pleasure to all levels of user.  It’s great for nipple play and clitoral stimulation too.

To clean simply wipe with a toy wipe or use a clean flannel and anti-bac soap.

 

 
Ouch! Crop

Ouch! Crop

The Ouch! Range of BDSM  and bondage products attracted my attention a few months ago and now I have the opportunity to bring you a review of another item from the range – their riding crop. It comes in two versions, PVC and leather. Here I’m reviewing the PVC version, though apart from the surface finish and aroma I suspect the leather one will be pretty similar.

Excluding the practical wrist strap the crop is 67cm long from one end of the handle to the tip of the square tip – there are two shapes of tip so check which one you’re buying, square or heart shaped. The crop comes in several colour variants too, ours is black, but you can get white, purple and pink as well as combinations of these colours.

I suppose the crop is easier to wipe clean if it’s made from PVC and it does look rather nice and shiny in your hand when you’re wielding it ;-) However I would have liked to play with a leather one – I do love the smell of leather. The shaft of the crop that joins the round handle to the flat square tip is covered in plaited PVC with the same shiny finish as the rest of the toy.

The Ouch! Crop does make a lovely swishing sound when you swing it through the air so I was eager to try it out on Alex’s ass. Purely for professional reasons you understand. I had  him strip naked and lay face down on the bed so that I had unhindered access to the skin of his pert buttocks. We both enjoy this type of play, sometimes he’ll be submissive sometimes I’ll submit to him; We both have our own preferences and pleasure/pain thresholds, it’s finding those thresholds which is the most fun.

I began as I usually do, gently rubbing his skin with the tip of the crop, and hit a problem. The shaft of the crop is so flexible that you can’t massage or rub your partner easily with it. So what? You might think if you have not used a crop before, it’s about inflicting a good thrashing isn’t it? Well, no. We think good BDSM is about control, control of your partner and control of the experience for you both. Pain is a part of that but contrasting a stinging thwack with a soothing massage can amplify the effect of a toy and enhance the experience.

OK, I thought I can rub him with my hand. I tried some gentle strokes and found the crop pretty good, though with a tendency to bounce a bit as the blows landed. Harder strokes with a longer swing tended to make the accuracy of my blows increasingly erratic.

Despite the lack of stiffness in the crop I was able to play quite well, inflicting stinging hits with the Ouch! Crop until his backside started to glow. I don’t like to inflict too much pain but on a couple of occasions Alex commented that I had landed an uncommonly harsh switching to his skin. There’s that slight lack of control again, although it did add a little randomness to the fun and made me smile in a sadistic way.

I found that the crop had some unexpected features. The plaited shaft drags across the skin and can therefore provide a different sensory experience to the subject of your play. This was even more fun when I decided I’d had enough of Alex’s buttocks and began to toy with his turgid cock. Laying on his back I gently tapped and rolled his member with the crop, and boy did he enjoy that!

I wouldn’t say the Ouch! Crop is perfect because of its over-flexible shaft but it does have a lot going for it. The construction quality is good and the PVC model is nice and easy to wipe clean after use. It looks the part too being nice and shiny. I can’t vouch for its durability yet having only used it once but what I can say is that it was a lot of fun and is reasonably priced.

 

 

 

 
Ouch Bondage Tape

Ouch Bondage Tape

Bondage tape is one of the simplest of adult products and one that encourages you to think creatively. The mind is of course the largest sexual organ and every time you exercise it the mind gets more and more sexual.

Essentially bondage tape is a tough but soft plastic that doesn’t stick to your skin but does adhere to itself allowing you to wrap up you or your partner in any number of ways. That in itself might not sound very erotic or stimulating, but that just means you’ve never tried it.

Let me explain, bondage tape is very versatile but until you’ve started to experiment with it you’ll wonder what all the fuss is about. I’ll take you through some scenarios :

As a blindfold bondage tape is great. It’s opaque and very comfortable, you need to wrap it around your partner’s head a few times to get purchase because as mentioned above it doesn’t stick to your skin, just itself. However once on place it’s comfortable but totally effective at removing your partner’s sight so great for a bit of domination.

Used to restrain your partner bondage tape is easy to wrap around your partner’s limbs and very comfortable. Properly wrapped the subject of the restrain is held firmly and securely without the risk of rope burns or any form of discomfort – unless you want them to be uncomfortable …

You can wrap whole limbs or other appendages in bondage tape. It feels very sensuous against the skin and means the body parts you choose to apply it to will be shiny and sexy. Being touched through a covering of bondage tape is pretty sexy too, like having a thin PVC skin of your own design.

Yes very kinky and we love it.

With Ouch bondage tape each roll is 20 metres in length so you could it are careful create a whole outfit from it, though if you go out in a bondage tape dress I’d take a spare roll for repairs. And yes, I know for a fact that some people have done just that for fetish events. In the bedroom of course you don’t have to worry about the odd “wardrobe failure”, indeed that’s part of the fun.

I created a rather nice bra for Suze from Bondage tape (it took quite a bit of tape to accommodate the booblies) and she loved to be fondled through the skin-tight custom plastic lingerie. Her hard nipples and moans attested to that. However as we became more and more amorous her nipples started to poke out – bonus, easy access! You see bondage tape is at its best and most reliable o firmer body parts so nice soft boobies do tend to escape.

As you can tell bondage tape is a great hit with us from kinky clothing to sensual bondage. One thing to note however is that it is in no way reusable – once this tape is off the roll you can’t get it to roll up again. A pity because we hate throwing things away after one use.

Ouch! Bondage Tape is a great way of introducing soft bondage and kinky play into the bedroom and will be something that you return to again and again because of its compellingly sensual nature.

 

 

 

 
Deluxe Leather Ball Gag

Deluxe Leather Ball Gag

We’ve reviewed sex toys from Allure Leather before and they have always been of the highest quality with materials chosen carefully, of the highest quality and put together perfectly to produce some great sex toys. This rubber ball gag is no exception and while it may be a little hardcore for some the interest in BDSM and bondage generated by the 50 Shades of Grey books mean a lot more people are daring to try out bondage accessories like this.

So that’s how I found myself laying face down on the bed with Alex astride my buttocks and a large rubber ball in my mouth, forcing my jaw open wide. The smell of the solid rubber ball mixed with the scent of the soft leather straps sending my mind racing. I love leather and I love rubber so together and with Alex’s hands tracing patterns over my back I was having some very naughty thoughts indeed. ;)  I could feel the moistness between my legs growing by the moment as the soft sensory stimulation on the skin of my back, the feeling of being violated by the ball gag wedging my jaw open and my filthy mind all joined together to turn me on.

I’ll rewind a bit to my first experience of the Deluxe Rubber Ball Gag. I opened the outer packaging and then tore open the clear plastic bag inside. The bag is probably to keep the leather from deteriorating if it’s stored at the retailer for a long time, but it also has the effect of preserving and intensifying the smell of rubber and leather so when the seal was broken I was hit in the face by an olfactory onslaught that ticked all my kinky boxes.

The ball is made of firm rubber, at first I thought it was too hard but it does yield a little. The leather strap which holds the gag in place is of the softest most fragrant black leather, stitched in red with two metal rings that sit on your cheeks when you are wearing it. The gag is adjusted by poppers that allow you to choose one of four sizes depending on your head size. If you have “big hair” of a big head you may find you have to fasten it underneath against your skin. I was OK as my hair was tied up in a ponytail.

So, back to my anticipation of what was to come.

Alex could obviously feel me squirming underneath him and was enjoying the sensation of naked skin against his inner thighs. I could feel his enjoyment in the shape of a hard rod of flesh that lay between my buttocks. ;)   I imagined it dribbling its clear nectar onto my back and wanted to cry out for Alex to fuck me. But I couldn’t because of the gag! And that made me even hotter!

I was drooling now, saliva oozing from my mouth onto the bed. My jaw started to ache although I was able to bite down slightly on the rubber ball which helped. The drooling and the discomfort amplified my sense of helplessness.

Alex told me to draw my knees up a little, raising my stomach from the bed. He slid a pillow under me and spread my legs. I felt him enter me “About time too!” I thought and well, the rest I’m sure you can work out. He left me fulfilled and feeling more than a little dominated, especially because all I could do to express my orgasm was to try and scream past the rubber ball in my mouth. I only managed a satisfied and stifled gurgle.

Allure Leather have produced another quality product that appeals to everyone with a little kink out there. This is a great ball gag, well made and easy to use. It feels the part too, it’s real BDSM kit that helps you and your partner explore bondage and restraint in the bedroom.

 

 

 

 
Body Wand Massager

Body Wand Massager

Anyone who knows me well and following me for a while will know that I’m not a fan of the Hitachi Magic Wand and to quote myself “It’s like taking a sledge hammer to crack a nut”.  Lol  But I thought I would give this updated version of the wand a sex toy review to see if it would change my mind.

The packaging of the Body Wand is basic but sturdy with clear branding and informative descriptions, it certainly doesn’t try to be what it isn’t.  This product after all is sold as a massager, where you use it is up to you but I bet you can guess where mine is going.  Lol

I found that the Body Wand doesn’t feel quite so cumbersome to hold as the Hitachi Magic Wand and the addition of a textured band around its middle helps with grip, especially if you were to use it with lubricants as your hand do tend to get a little slippery.

Overall the structure of the Body Wand seems to be sturdy and robust but I did note that there is no strain relief around the power lead on this product which should be addressed as this could lead to the cable breaking.

I did notice that there are two features that aren’t present in the Hitachi Magic Wand, a multispeed control and a head which flexes.  Yes, they do say that the head of the HMW is flexible but it’s fairly rigid by comparison to this massager.

Being a massager there is only one way (two ways) to test the Body Wand and that is to try it on my back and on my…

But first you need to become acquainted with the more intimate details of this massager.

  • It never runs out of power because it is mains powered, plug and play.
  • Offers multispeed settings via dial control, set to low for gentle stimulation or knock your socks off by turning up the power.  Something to please everyone.  ;)
  • Other attachments are available to extend the pleasure of your wand.
  • With a “sure grip” band around its centre you will never be out of control.
  • Doesn’t require a transformer to be used in the UK. The Hitachi does.

I wanted to give this massager an all round workout and as it happened my lower back was playing up so I enlisted the help of my trusty toy testing companion Alex to help me out.

Laying face down on the mattress Alex plugged in the Body Wand and powered him up.  Initially the noise coming from the Body Wand was reasonably quiet but as he powered it up the noise became more obtrusive.

Having said that the power offered was much greater than that of the Hitachi Magic Wand, it felt great on my lower back.  Alex ran the wand over in circles over my lower back and after just a few minutes I was starting to feel the benefit and feeling very relaxed.  In fact I felt rather horny.  ;)

I’m sure things were starting to become erect and aroused.  As he left me prostrate on the bed to chill I could feel my arousal and curiosity grow.  I could hear fingers on keyboard next door to the bedroom as he continued with is work.  He had a deadline and I had a hunger…for release.

Alex had thoughtfully placed the Body Wand next to me on the mattress, me thinks this was not by accident but intentionally he knew I would want to give it a try.  Dirty bugger.  I rolled over on to my back taking the massager in my right hand.

I parted my legs, placing the undersides of my feet together, legs bent.  This made access to my clit easier.  With a slight roll of the dial I started up the Body Wand and my clit immediately felt the seductive vibrations ripple through it.

Winding up the speed I started to twitch but felt things slipping away from me and my clit becoming hot.  I spat on my fingers and ran them between my labia, coating my clit and surrounding area.  I applied the massager again and it was like riding the crest of a wave as I became immersed in the vibratory pleasure I was encountering.

Then things down there felt hot again.  I removed the Body Wand from my clitoris and reached in to my draw for some water based lube.  Once applied to my pink button I reapplied the Body Wand and OMG!

Feeling the need for speed I turned up the dial.  At this point I was now feeling the vibrations not only through my clit but in my hands, not something which happens with the HMW.  I was now being stimulated in stereo.

Despite the vibratory feedback I was undeterred in my pleasure mission and started to move the Body Wand Massager head in a circular motion over my now throbbing clitoris.  ;)   And my orgasm kicked in big time as I twitched and moaned like a whore.

What can I say.  The Body Wand Massager is a good all rounder, offering good massage wherever you require it.  But don’t expect it to be discreet because the power is betrayed by the rattling noises emitted when it’s in use.

This toy can be used by newbies and seasoned users alike because of the versatility of the product coupled with its variable intensity.

 
Odeco Eros Vibrator

Odeco Eros Vibrator

Odeco are a newcomer to the market with lots to offer in their extensive but fun range of sex toys for me to review.  I thought I would make a start with the Eros vibrator which as you can see is leaf shaped and quite a versatile mini vibe.

Once inside the packaging I exposed the outer sleeve of the Eros clearly emblazoned with a picture of the Eros vibrator so you can immediately see what you have received. But what you can’t see is the name of the product – that is until you happen upon the barcoded label stuck to the packaging for warehousing purposes.

A little niggle I know but for someone who requests products for review and sometimes in bulk it’s nice to know what I am about to test. More importantly if you see this on the shelf in a high street store and want to ask the assistant about it what do you call it, unless you spot the tiny sticker. I also found the imagery on the sleeve a little too “funky” which combined with the anonymity made the product look a little tacky and cheap at first glance.  A more conservative look would have been preferable.

But hey, let’s not judge a book by its cover.

I slipped off the outer sleeve and was pleasantly surprised by the quirky jaunty angled box within.  Odeco have redeemed themselves.  Lol  The two halves of the box are cut at an angle and the inner orange box is just visible along the joint.

The lid fits very snugly fitting and you have to adopt a bit of a hand wiggle to remove it.  Once inside the Eros can be found nestling in a graphite coloured foam interior.  Once removed the charger and instruction booklet are revealed along with a black satin pouch in which to store your Odeco Eros vibrator.

Actually inserting the charger in to the Odeco Eros fully doesn’t appear to start the charging process.  I had to pull it out a little to form a connection. So while the Odeco Eros vibrator is charging here are some points of interest.

  • Charge for up to 2 hours for 2 hours of play.  The light flickers whilst charging, switching to constant when fully charged.
  • It’s compact and easily slipped in to panties or a bra, a handbag or a glove box for some in car entertainment.  ;)
  • The shape of the Eros just begs to be slipped between the pussy lips for clitoral stimulation.
  • Being water resistant it can be used in the shower for a little bedroom to bathroom play.
  • Easily operated via the + and – buttons, press once to move through the speed/functions and press and hold to progress through all the settings.
  • Is quiet but powerful in operation.
  • Offers 1 x constant, 2 x pulsation and 3 escalation modes of vibration.

The segment shape of the Eros intuitively told me it would work best slipped inside the gusset of my panties and sat on.  I was right, because there isn’t much to grip you are best turning it on and enjoying the powerful but quiet vibrations on offer.

I set myself a challenge to write my preface for this review whilst sitting on my Eros and see just how long I could last before my concentration waned and I stopped writing.  ;)

Pressing the + button several times took me to an escalating mode which tickled my fancy.  I was now ready to insert the Eros in my panties.  I pushed my back against my office chair whilst slipping my ass forward on the seat.

Moments later the vibrator was nicely positioned between my pussy lips with its arched back sitting in the opening of my vagina and the tip pressed against my clitoris.  I started to write this review and found that my instinct was to move gently from side to side, enabling the Eros to massage as well as vibrate my clit.

It felt good and you would hardly know I was sitting on a vibrator.  Girls you could take this to the office and nobody would know you were pleasuring yourself.  But do be careful to come quietly.  Lol  As I started to write the bullet notes for this review I could feel the tell tale tingling in my toes which proceeds my orgasm.

Productivity failed at this point as I rested back against my chair, still continuing to wiggle my ass on the seat.  Moments later I felt it…

My screen was filling up with z’s and other erogenous characters as I twitched my last and moistened the gusset of my panties.

This mini vibrator is fun to use and so discreet which is a bonus.  The Eros would be a great buy for any level of user, simply adapt it to the level of play you enjoy, clitoral, nipple or frenulum if you are a guy.  Alex enjoyed holding it against the underside of his cock as I finished off this review.

The only downside to the Odeco Eros is the light indictor which can be erratic.  I gave mine a full charge and once removed from the charger the light started to flash, which indicates that it requires another charge.  However, if you ensure that you give it at least 2 hours charge you should be OK to go.

 

 

 
Ouch Deluxe Handcuffs

Ouch Deluxe Handcuffs

Some sex toys speak for themselves, and perhaps one of them is the Ouch! Handcuffs. That doesn’t mean they don’t deserve a sex toy review; But I mean, they are just another set of handcuffs, right? Actually no.

We’ve tested a number of bondage restraints over the years and when it comes to handcuffs it’s often difficult to find the ones that work for your mood. Steel cuffs can be a little harsh, and all that covering them in faux fur does is to make them fiddly to use and look a bit daft. Often you need something in the middle, not too hardcore but a set of cuffs that will stand up to some reasonable strain.

The Ouch! Handcuffs consist of two loops of thick, braided synthetic strands connected by metals rings that include a cast central section with the Ouch! name, naked lady logo and the words “For pure sexy spanking”. Two of the rings have spring-loaded catches allowing each of the rope cuffs to be easily removed and attached. When closed these loops are smooth so will not easily catch on skin and don’t require a key to release them.

I’m pretty impressed by the practicality and build quality of these cuffs. The broad, braided loops that restrain the wrists (or ankles) of the submissive partner are reasonably comfortable until you start pulling them about, at which point they can feel a little coarse. This means you are able to gently restrain, or if the mood in the bedroom demands it apply a little gentle coercion by simply guiding your slave with the cuffs. Don’t over-do it though, synthetic fibres can mark skin and burn skin if used too harshly.

When used in the bedroom these cuffs stand up to all the demands we placed upon them, gentle but firm manipulation of the submissive partner (Suze) was easy. So long as you don’t cause the cuffs to slide quickly around their respective limbs you can exercise control without the risk of damaging skin. The series of rings between the cuffs allow you to grab them easily during play to guide your partner in a way that a pair of normal Smith and Wesson style cuffs with a short chain can’t.

So long as the submissive partner doesn’t pull too hard on these cuffs you could use rope or some other means to tie them to the bed. However the cuffs do have a limit. While the soft wrist sections would probably be strong enough to tow a small car (don’t try it please!) the interconnecting rings do spread if you pull the cuffs apart hard enough. This does not damaged the rings with the spring catch in them but the other rings begin to open up which could lead to an unexpected failure of the cuffs – the moral? Don’t use them for any sort of play like suspension where you’d be relying on them to support your partner. To be fair, this applies to a lot of cuff designs and you really have to apply a lot of force to make the rings spread but I have to mention it for completeness.

This is a really useful set of cuffs for adventurous lovers. There are going to be a lot of couples wanting to explore bondage in the bedroom because of the 50 Shades Of Grey series of books and I can see these cuffs working well for them. They are not a set of expensive and scary shackles, nor are they the sort of badly made and uncomfortable faux cuffs sold to stag and hen parties as novelty items. You can have a lot of fun with these restraints, especially if you combine them with a little spanking … Ouch!

 

 

 

 
Seven Creations Vibrating Bullet

Seven Creations Vibrating Bullet

It’s a while since I got my hands on a remote control bullet vibrator for sex toy testing and reviewing and this one has quite a stylish look.

Bullets are such a versatile toy and you can use some real creativity in their usage.  They quite literally slip in to most things including bra cups, pants and pockets and in my case they can amuse the cat for a considerable amount of time.  Lol

They also slip nicely in to your guy’s budgie smugglers and nestle against his perineum, should he wish to share with you.  Give it a try.  ;)

Because the Seven Creations Vibrating Bullet is waterproof I had no reservations about running a bowl of water and giving it a jolly good seeing to with anti-bac soap.  Then I carefully dried it with a towel.  Totally loving the business end of this toy, it reminds me of a Christmas bauble with a hidden secret.

Right let’s see if this bullet is the right calibre for me.

Oooh, before I do here are some points of interest…

  • Features a streamline control unit with independent  On/Off switch which is useful for emergency stops.  Lol
  • With a 68cm remote lead which should give you pants to pocket connectivity.
  • Is fully waterproof for bathtime fun.
  • Offers 7 modes of vibration including, 3 x constant speeds, 3 x pulsating and 1 x escalating modes for your enjoyment.
  • Is quiet but powerful in operation, for discreet play outdoors or in for that matter.
  • Operated via 2 x AAA batteries.

I made my way in to the bedroom to find Alex reclining and wistfully playing with his cock, a sight usually reserved for toy testing.  But this time he didn’t have a masturbator patiently waiting on his bedside drawers.

He was waiting for me!

But before I could get down to any hanky panky there was something I had to do.  My bullet vibe needed to be played with.

It was hot and sticky in the bedroom, just like it had been all day and I was eager to slip out of my clothes.  Alex continued to stroke his cock gently and with no sense of emergency, almost accepting that he would have to wait.

There was work to be done.  ;)

I slipped the cool metallic Vibrating Bullet between my moist pussy lips and it fitted perfectly nestling against my clit.  Taking hold of the control which was resting on my stomach I pressed the On button, followed by the Function button.

The bullet sprang to life with a continuous hum on my now excited clit.  This felt good but I wanted more.  I progressed through the settings to an escalating mode and let the bullet unleash its worst.  Strong waves of vibration were now causing the bullet to dance on my swollen bud and I was being lulled in to my own sweet Nirvana.

It was then that I became aware of just how big and hard Alex was in peripheral vision.  My attentions were focused on him and I rolled over taking him in my hand and opening my mouth to swallow him.  There were no objections raised as I started to press my tongue against his cock and move my head up and down on his shaft.

Alex moaned and shuffled in to a more comfortable position as I removed the Seven Creations Bullet from between my pussy lips and placed it against his perineum.  Now that did make him moan.  ;)

I continued my assailment of his cock, pushing him deeper in to my throat, fucking him with my mouth.  Meantime the bullet was pulsating against his underside.  This was really turning me on and I pressed my thighs together and flexed my hips making my clit roll between my labia.

From the noised escaping from Alex’s throat he was near to coming and he confirmed it moments later when he called out “I’m coming!” giving me the option of having him come in my mouth or on me.  I continued to suck and rub my tongue on his cock as I felt him tense in the clinch of his orgasm.

Then I felt him jettison his spunk in to my mouth…once, twice..three times as he quivered below me.  My reflex action was to swallow every last drop and as he melted back in to the mattress I gently licked him clean as he flinched with his post orgasmic sensitivity.

Removing the bullet from its position between his legs I powered it off and lay it down on the bed between us as I turned on to my side and planted a kiss on his left cheek.

He opened his eyes and smiled, the smile of a satisfied man…

Guess I’ll have to give it another try when Alex isn’t around.  Lol

The Seven Creations Bullet is the perfect choice for any level of sex toy user.  It is quiet but offers powerful vibrations,  is stylish in looks with an easy to operate remote.  Girls if you get one don’t keep it just for yourself.  ;)

 

 
Leaf Life Vibrator

Leaf Life Vibrator

I met the white van man as he was about to knock on my door, he’s a regular now and I always have a bit of a chat with him.  Not sure if he knows exactly what he has been delivering to me over the years but it always makes me smile to think that he doesn’t have a clue about my sex toy reviews.

The Leaf Life in commom with the other vibrators in the Leaf range is nicely packaged in a sturdy box complete with magnetic clip.  They have been designed to look “green”, being made from manila card which hints at its recyclability.  The box is very minimalist in design, but gives you all the information you need about the product.

In fact the product looks like it is pure and untainted, all high fibre and planet friendly, Lol.  Well done to the design team.

Once you open the magnetic clasp on the side of the box you reveal a matt black wallet containing an instruction booklet for you vibrator.  Stowed under the booklet is your vibrator sealed in its own plastic bag and a rather nice storage bag emblazoned with the leaf logo.

And just when you think they couldn’t be any more thoughtful you come across a set of interchangeable plugs which make your new vibrator usable throughout the world.  These guys seem to have thought of everything.

Oh, you’ve probably guessed by now that the Leaf range of vibrators are rechargeable which is the icing on the cake.  No more batteries to buy, not to mention the green aspect.  One day all toys will be made this way.  ;)

I put the Leaf Life Vibrator on charge and fortunately within an hour it was ready to use, they must have thoughtfully charged it before shipping to test – and it was still part charged when I received it, quality batteries.

The shape of the Life almost invites you to slip it between your pussy lips and that’s exactly what I intend to do but first there is other business to take care of, you need to know the ins and outs of this vibrator.  Oooh, errr!

  • Is fully rechargeable in up to 2 hours which gives approx 2 hours and forty minutes play.
  • Can be used safely in the bathroom because it is waterproof.
  • Offers multiple speeds simply press and hold to work your way through them all.  ;)
  • Is small and discrete to slip in to your pocket, purse or glove box in your car for fun on the run.
  • With its slim organic shape you can slip it in to your lingerie or use the tip for targeted clitoral play.

I decided to have some fun shopping whilst wearing it and I had a trip to my local Sainsburys in mind.  Food shopping for me is a means to an end and frankly any diversion from the boredom is welcomed.  Not to mention the pleasure of having my clit massaged mercilessly during the duration of the trip.

Because once turned on I can’t stop mid shop to fiddle about down my panties to turn it off.  This is a pleasure trip with commitment.  Lol

Once at the store I lifted the hem of my dress and pulled the gusset of my panties to one side to slip the Life inside.  Just in case I wore my Bridget Jones ones to ensure safe passage.  Don’t want my vibe falling out in the fruit and veg section.

A lengthy hold of the On button soon found my desired speed and I placed it between my pussy lips immediately appreciating the powerful vibrations rippling through me.  I almost forgot to take my shopping bags with me I was so excited at the prospect of shopping alongside the produce zombies whilst getting my thrills.  ;)

My gait must have betrayed me because the vibrations I was experiencing were making me tingle from top to toe.  I was liking the enhanced shopping experience and I’m sure it must have shown on my face too as I fought  my natural instincts to allow moans to issue from throat.

Quite how I managed to do my shop and make it to the car park without giving myself away totally I don’t know.  I had to stop to regain my composure several times in that shop and I couldn’t wait to get home and let rip…

This vibrator is totally configurable and would be suitable for all levels of user.  It is quiet, powerful and effective I came like a train when I got back, rubbing my clit with the tip.

 
Silk Rope Love Cuffs From Fetish Fantasy

Silk Rope Love Cuffs From Fetish Fantasy

Most couples have tried a little bondage in the bedroom. However progressing beyond a little improvised restraint can be a bit daunting so it’s great that the market now offers a wide range of what at first might appear to be soft introductions to bondage. I say at first because many of the products, like this one, are actually suited to the beginner and the more experienced user.

Although the rope isn’t actually silk it is soft and silky. It’s joined by being melted together which has two consequences, the joint is covered by a plastic sleeve to cover the resulting hard edges and prevent the joint scratching you and when you first get the cuffs out of the box they smell of burnt plastic. This aroma immediately begins to dissipate but it was a bit off-putting at first.

The locking mechanism of the cuffs is provided by two sturdy plastic buckles with nice rounded edges. They are easy to tighten and release.

What you don’t get with this toy is the “ancient art of Japanese bondage without having to be an expert”. Japanese bondage is a skill and an art that requires knotting of rope, patience and practice. That’s not a criticism of the toy, just the hype of the package. This is a very practical toy with a variety of uses.

The packaging shows a pair of rope cuffs with a long pair of ropes joining them. About twice the actual length of rope that the cuffs come with. Not a big criticism but relevant if you intended to use them specifically as ankle cuffs – in which case you would not get the range of movement the box illustration depicts. In fact on a normal set of wrists/ankles you get 10 to 12 inches of rope between the cuffs.

Wearing these cuffs you can get them quite tight so beware, but they are easy to release so that’s not going to cause you too many problems. They are soft on the skin and very, very strong. The synthetic rope used in them would probably be strong enough to light a fridge so it feels the part and is not going to snap in the bedroom. Soft, strong, just not as long as the picture on the box LOL

You could combine two sets of these cuffs, looping one through the other to gently hog tie someone or simply experiment with one set to help manipulate your partner. And afterwards the only signs that you’ve been a bit kinky are rather nice impressions in their skin that soon fade.

This isn’t a set for the hardcore BDSM practitioner, it’s more for couples who want a quality, easy to use set of restraints that is strong and relatively gently on the skin. The softness of the rope and the strength of the construction means that all but the most demanding of users will find this set of rope restraints an ideal accompaniment to their bedroom bondage fantasies.

 
Geisha Luxury Erotic Massage Set

Geisha Luxury Erotic Massage Set

This set of massage oils from Geisha’s range of Erotic Body Care products gives you the choice of four different blends of aromatic oils to suit your mood. Each of the four 30ml bottles contains a soya oil based massage fluid with its own distinct fragrance.

  • Delight is described as a “Rich oriental fragrance that blends the sensual scents of ginseng, cedar wood, amber, clove vanilla and musk”
  • Spicy is scented with patchouli, ylang ylang, amber and musk.
  • Exquisite claims to be an aphrodisiac blend of sandalwood, patchouli, musk, ylang ylang and jasmine
  • Harmony is fragranced with Japanese peony, Thai pepper, frangipani, white musk and vanilla

The set of massage oils is packaged beautifully and would make a perfect gift to a female partner with its promise of many indulgent evenings of sensual massage. And in reverse I can’t see many men not enjoying a massage but also the promise of being able to massage their partner were they to receive this product.

Now I can’t vouch for any specific aphrodisiac properties of any of the massage oils in the set but they do help you relax and establish an intimate bond with your partner even after the most stressful of days. That alone is worth the cost of the product. But quality massage oils like this are much more than that.

On their own you can use the Geisha massage oils to help you both relax. Combine them with a blindfold and perhaps a little light bondage and you can have the makings of a sensational evening of sensory stimulation.

Smell being perhaps the most evocative of senses it triggers very basic and potent reactions in both participants of a massage. So needless to say we enjoyed the oils in this set on all sorts of levels and will continue to do so until the bottles are exhausted. The combination of aroma and intimate sensual contact that massage entails is very compelling.

Having four different blends of fragrance in one set is a huge advantage as it allows you to match the oil with your mood and the ambience you want to create. You’ll always have a favourite, ours is “Spicy” but tomorrow it might be something else, LOL.

The oils should be used within 6 months of opening, but that’s unlikely to be a problem because this is a product that you are likely to want to use as often as you can.

A well presented set that aids relaxation and enhances foreplay. The oils are “enriched with Vitamins E & F” too so your skin could benefit too. Geisha’s massage oils will encourage you to do the one thing that a modern life often denies you, taking time out to relax and enjoy the time you have with your partner to the full.

 

 

 
Metal Worx Magnetic Nipple Clamps

Metal Worx Magnetic Nipple Clamps

I love nipple play because my nipples are very sensitive, not overly so but enough for me to get wet when being toyed with.  But despite this I haven’t sex toy reviewed many products designed to bring pleasure to via the nipples or breasts.

Which is why I was happy to give these Magnetic Nipple Clamps from Pipedream a try.  As with the rest of the Metal Worx range they are presented in a sturdy box with metal clasp and embellishments which resemble a camera case.  This gives the impression of containing a seriously valuable piece of fetish kit, almost a professional inference.  ;)

Unlike others on the market that screw up to the required pressure or use springs these nipple clamps close unaided, simply separate the clamps by pulling back on the pegs and then slowly release for a firm but gentle pinch.

Or if you are feeling particularly naughty let go and feel them ping together on your erect nipple.  I didn’t opt for this during testing, not in to too much pain.  Lol

On first examination these clamps appear to be visually attractive and are of sufficient weight to suggest that they are a durable and semi serious bit of kit for the BDSM dabbler.  Although probably not what would be classed as hardcore these nipple clips do fall somewhere in the midrange, which makes them appealing to the first time user too.

I’m a fan of the latest Metal Worx range of products but I do feel that the quality of the product is not quite as good as it could be in terms of finish.  And this product had slight issues with manufacture too.  One clip on each of the clamps had machining/finishing issues.

I know these products have to be made to a cost to keep them competitive but Pipedream, you should really look at the finish.  Enough said, lets see how they perform in use.

With these nipple clamps the key to enjoyable nipple play is in the application of the clamps to your nips.  If you don’t quite grasp your nipple in the middle you will feel a rather sharp pinch, which for some may be desirable but for me wasn’t too pleasant.

If possible get the best viewing angle as you mount the clamp frame around your nipple so when you gently release the clamps they target the centre of your nipple.  First time round I was off target and it gave me a bit of a tight pinch.

I released the clamps by pulling them both back and re-seated the nipple clamp which then afforded me a gentle squeeze which felt even and slightly naughty.  When both were in place it felt like my lover had both nipples in his hand and applying a constant arousing pressure.

In contrast you could offset them and feel the nip and pain of increased pressure.

I’m sure the combination of the pressure applied by these Pipedream Nipple Clamps and a good clit vibe would have me climaxing rather noisily.  But I wanted to try this product out in isolation and it gave the desired “pinch” effect which works for me.

I suggest you play around with them to get the most out of their clamping sensation.  For example try sitting up, I was laying down.  In the seated position there is more pull on the nipple clamp which adds to the overall effect they have.

As with all BDSM sex toys experimentation is the key, what works for one person may not necessarily get another one off.  Go play and most of all enjoy because there is something for all levels of user with this product.

 
Smart Wand From Lelo

Smart Wand From Lelo

Forget about your Hitachi Magic Wands, Lelo bring us the future of wand style massagers.

I received my Lelo Smart Wand in time for the weekend and couldn’t wait to slip it out of the cardboard outer to reveal the…  I was about to say, sturdy black box but no it wasn’t.  The SenseTouch Smart Wand has broken from Lelo tradition and is presented in an equally impressive white box.

Secured inside the box within the matching plush interior was the wand and the now familiar Insignia brooch, I have quite a collection of those now.  :)

My first impression of the Smart Wand was just how stylish they had made what is after all a familiar old friend.  Mine was a medium sized wand, I believe they come in large as well.  Gone is the huge cumbersome massager we are used to seeing, it has been replaced by an ergonomically shaped massager with a gently curved handle for practicality.  Unlike the Hitachi Magic Wand it doesn’t look like an over sized and out-dated medical appliance.

This is an object of desire.

Lelo excel at making vibrators look like objects of beauty, giving them an almost Art Nouveau look and  feel.  I received the plum version which contrasts nicely with the gilt embellished handle, a very classy look.

The charger is tucked away under a card casing bearing the Lelo insignia at the far end of the box and underneath the insert is the 10 year warranty, instruction manual and black silky storage bag or tote bag as our friends over the pond refer to it.

Reading through the manual I discover that the concept of “SenseTouch” means once selected you can hold the vibrator against your body and it will slowly work up through the speed settings the longer you hold it in place.  Great concept!

But before I could get to grips with my Smart Wand I needed to charge her, the booklet advised that a full charge should take around 2 hours.

So I’ll see you all in two, in the meantime you can read up on more of the SenseTouch Smart Wand’s features.

  • 8 vibratory patterns with adjustable strength.
  • Is rechargeable and fully charged up and ready for use in 2 hours.
  • Simply press and hold the <> button down for 3-5 seconds for the SenseTouch mode.  Which is really good.  ;)
  • Features easy to operate with a positive touch + and – buttons to control the vibration speed.
  • Is ergonomically shaped for targeted pleasure and ease of use.
  • Offers great deep muscle massage after a bath or a shower not just sexual pleasure.  Loving the multi-tasking abilities of this vibe.
  • Can be enjoyed in the bath or shower too.

I wandered off in to the bedroom, my intention to give the Smart Wand a solo work out, girl on girl.  It didn’t work out that way because Alex followed me obviously eager for a shag.  Lol

Moments later we were both naked and he was biting down on my neck, which always makes me weak at the knees.  I moved towards the bed and the waiting Smart Wand on my bedside drawers, moments later I was in the missionary position with Alex between my legs.

I reached out and picked up my Lelo Smart Wand determined to give the girl a try.  As Alex pushed the tip of his hard cock inside me I pressed the function button and started up the SenseTouch mode.

The wand started to vibrate at a low hum as Alex started to fuck me more vigorously and I deftly slipped it between us locating my clitoris with the head.  I didn’t meet with any resistance as the vibrations increased, in fact Alex started to fuck me faster and harder implying that he was enjoying the Smart Wand’s effects too.  ;)

By now I was on the verge of having a clitoral orgasm as a result of the G spot stimulation I was encountering with the cut and thrust of Alex’s pleasure, my synapses were in overdrive.  A smile must have been clearly visible on my lips.

It was easy to hold the curved handle in place against my pudenda as I was mercilessly fucked, unlike the Hitachi which would have been far more intrusive being straight shafted and much larger.  With the Lelo Smart Wand you can simply let go and let things happen as the handle comes to rest on your pudenda without much intervention.

You may need to occasionally reign things in and reposition the wand but for the most I was able to let the combined weight of the wand and the angle of the head take care of me.  Rather noisily I exploded with the resultant squelching sound accompanying every thrusting affirming my enjoyment of the combined efforts of Alex and the Lelo Smart Wand.

In my opinion this vibrator is the best thing to happen in adult pleasure for a long time.  Lelo really are a company to reckon with and are still setting the standard for sex toys.

The Smart Wand is so versatile in both usage and settings that it can be pretty much used by all levels of user.  One for your toy box and mine.

 

 
FixSation Couples Vibe

FixSation Couples Vibe

The packaging for the FixSation is quite classy with a black outer sleeve and a sturdy inner box both with contrasting pink and white detailing.  I opened the box not quite knowing what to expect and found an instruction leaflet on top of the FixSation Vibe; The vibe resembled a cheese cutter and very much reminded me of my first thongs which consisted of nothing much more than an elastic strap.

I wasn’t impressed to say the least at the lace waist band with stringy elasticated strapping and curved vibrator unit.  It looked uncomfortable to wear and unsophisticated.

Would my first impressions be proved wrong?

You will have to read the rest of the review to find out hehehe.

You also get a shiny silver pouch to keep you FixSation in when not in use.  Unlike most other vibrators in its genre the FixSation is fully rechargeable instead of being powered on very expensive watch batteries which is certainly in its favour.

  • Here are some more of the FixSation’s finer points.
  • Is rechargeable, lasting up to 2 hours on one charge.
  • Offers quiet but powerful vibrations.
  • Has three speed settings to suit your needs operated via push button control.
  • The vibrator unit is detachable for cleaning.
  • Gives hands free vibratory pleasure.

I slipped on my FixSation vibro pants before Alex entered the bedroom and at first they felt a little unusual, not uncomfortable, more unfamiliar.   I adjusted the vibrator unit to sit over my mons as I lay back in the missionary position with legs akimbo.

Whilst Alex was buggering about finishing off his work in the office I took the opportunity to try the vibratory unit out solo.  I pressed the On/Off/ Speed Settings button and repositioned the vibratory unit to sit directly over my clit.

The tension on the elastic straps was just right for assuring constant contact and pressure over my clitoris.  I pressed and held the button in for a few seconds to fire up the vibratory unit which was reasonably powerful on the first setting but even better on the third and final one.

Given the power the noise level is minimal with none of the rattle you sometimes get in small vibrators, so you could certainly use this if you have visitors sleeping next door.  ;)

Being the nosey parker (get it?  Lol) that he is Alex didn’t take long to poke his head round the bedroom door eager to give it a try in the “thrusts” of passion.  And of course I didn’t rebuff his offer to fuck the pants off me.  Lol

He eased between my legs, hardon swinging in mid air as he positioned himself for penetration.  Once inside my pussy he gave a few slow thrusts and then went for it, fucking me with such vigour that I was bounced up the bed making contact with the headboard.

At this point I found that the FixSation had started to move downwards and was now in the wrong position.  This could be due to slippage caused by splaying my legs wide enough to accommodate Alex and therefore applying more pull than normal.  However the vibrations were still working their magic on my nether regions.

We decided to flip positions and go for a bit of doggy style action and with a slight adjustment of the FixSation we were soon both enjoying the buzzing between my legs.  Alex remarked that he could now feel the vibrator against his balls and he was enjoying the stimulation.

The combined feeling of being penetrated and cltiorally stimulated soon had me arching my back and reaching round to rake at Alex’s with my fingernails.  The FixSation is the perfect accompaniment to a good shagging as my orgasm will testify.

I came, swiftly followed by Alex…

This is a great couples toy, its non-invasive and a wonderful bedroom companion for a ménage et trios and the vibratory unit unclips for ease of washing.

 

 

 
Asylum Patient Hog Tie

Asylum Patient Hog Tie

This BDSM accessory is a prime case of caveat emptor. What you get with the Patent Hog Tie from Topco is just that, the Hog Tie. No wrist or ankle restraints and definitely not the fetish model pictured on the box. OK I know the latter is pretty unlikely in such a small box but I keep hoping that one day … LOL

Anyway, the Hog Tie is an accessory meant to be paired with other items from the Asylum range of bondage restraints, and it does actually say so on the box so that’s not  real criticism. It does hold your “victim’s” arms and legs in place without needing to resort to unwieldy ropes and chains via the three clips, three short nylon tethers and metal ring at its centre.

The accessory is very strong in all respects, except one. The three slide clips meant to fix to the ankle and wrist restrains fail very easily. When we tested them one clip broke almost immediately simply due to the “patient” squirming about – the metal hook section of the Hog Tie sheared straight through.

Our advice – use a little rope, or chain, or metal ring to hold your restraints together when you’re hog tying your partner and spend the money you save on that.

 
Lelo Tor II

Lelo Tor II

Don’t blink because you might miss this sex toy review :-)

The Lelo Tor II is a high quality silicone cock ring that commands a premium price – and from a point of view of design and build quality it deserves the high ticket price. Custom built and not thrown together from semi-standard far-eastern components this is a sex toy worthy of the Lelo name.

The Lelo Tor II is rechargeable via the country specific charge adapter supplied with each unit. In the box you will also find a sachet of lube (or as Lelo would have it – personal moisturiser) and the instructions/guarantee. The final item is a satin draw string bag for you to store the Tor II in when it’s not in use.

When charged you can control the speed and program (six modes are available) by using the + and – buttons, one either side of the vibrating bullet. You can lock the TOR II on one programme by holding both buttons simultaneously, a feature common to many Lelo sex toys. The vibrations are intense, so far as I can tell and because of the quality of the battery the Tor II will stay charged for a long time. I know, I charged it as soon as I got it and it’s still going strong now, weeks later.

So why has it taken this long to test such an obviously high quality sex toy? The answer is a single word – Size!

I am just above average penis size at 7.5 inches when erect, however the Tor is way too small for me. The instructions suggest not wearing this cock ring for more than an hour. If I had managed to get the cock ring to the base of my hard penis I would have had to cut it off in a few minutes before it caused serious discomfort. The instructions tell you that it can be worn around the cock and scrotum, behind the testicles; I’m not sure how!

I tried, I really did. I warmed the silicone up, used plenty of lube and even left it stretched over the top of a large bottle of lube for a fortnight. Sadly the high quality medical grade silicone cock ring simply returned to its original cock-clenching size.

It’s a pity that I could not test this cock ring and I suppose that it would suit average to small sized penises but for me it was just a case of admiring an obviously well made cock ring and wondering what it would be like if only I could wear it.

 

 

 
Pipedream Spread Em Bar & Cuff Set

Pipedream Spread Em Bar & Cuff Set

I didn’t know quite what to expect when requested this set for sex toy test and review.  We’ve never played with anything quite like this, yes we’ve used restraints in the past but nothing quite so hardcore.  And I was looking forward to using the Spread Em Bar & Cuff Set, the thought of new sexual experiences is so exciting.  ;)

Of course this is a toy which you really need a partner to explore because there is no way you are going to be able to fasten those cuffs let alone undo them at the end of your BDSM experience.

As I opened the padlock on the zipped canvas bag I felt ever so slightly naughty and kinky.  I zipped open the case to reveal the contents, 4 neoprene cuffs and two chromed bars with internal chains and attachment hoops set at points along their lengths.

The bars weren’t heavy duty but certainly felt sturdy and capable of restraining the most resistant of slaves.  That would be me then.  Lol

This kit is very versatile, you can wear either of the spreader bars individually or tether them for a hog tie type experience.  The cuffs are soft, strong and fully adjustable but more importantly don’t bite in to the skin.

Additionally there is a collar which can be attached to the smaller wrist spreader bar utilising the previously mentioned nylon webbing tether.  As you can begin to appreciate this set is fully configurable to your bondage needs.

So to recap the Spread Em Bar & Cuff Set comprises…

  • Canvass storage bag complete with padlock to keep your set safe.
  • 1 x spreader Bar 62.5cm.
  • 1 x spreader Bar 30cm.
  • 4 x neoprene adjustable cuffs.
  • 1 x blindfold for added sensory deprivation.

We turned up the central heating to get the bedroom nice and warm before I lay naked and prostrate on top of the duvet awaiting my bondage experience, not quite knowing what to expect.  Alex entered the room shortly after and proceeded to blindfold me which left me feeling ever so slightly vulnerable but excited at the same time.

What was he going to do to me?

My heart beat raised a little as I felt a soft touch upon my inner thigh.  It kind of tickled but felt like a comforting finger running lightly over my flesh.  I couldn’t conceal my arousal as my nipples hardened and my flesh developed goose bumps.

Then I felt the placement of cuffs around my wrists and I pulled my hands in opposite directions to feel the tension on the neoprene cuffs.  I was tethered and it felt so good.  Next there were warm hands on my ankles as the cuffs tightened around me.  Then the sound of the clip being drawn back on the tether and my legs being raised in the air to meet my hands.

I could feel the pull on my limbs but at the same time they felt comfortably supported, not at all what I expected.  It added to the restrictive naughtiness of the situation which added to the stimulation and heightening of my senses especially with my sight being impaired.  ;)

I was just becoming accustomed to having my limbs held high like a rag doll as something hard and warm filled my pussy.  Alex slipped his erect penis inside me and that pushed me over the edge, the sensual bombardment was all too much and after only a few strokes my first orgasm gripped me.

He continued to fuck me mercilessly as I dug my finger nails in to the soft flesh on his back.  It was a good job the neighbours were away because I moaned like a whore as he continued his onslaught on my wet pussy.

My flesh tingled, my heart beat so fast I though it would break free from its confines as I came over and over again.

Now sat here with a smile on my face I strongly recommend that you give this restraint set a try because it’s an experience every couple should try at least once.

 
Multi Wanachi Massager

Multi Wanachi Massager

When I asked for the Wanachi vibrator to be sent out to me for review I had no idea how big it was.  I’ve tried and tested the over sized option of this type of massager the Hitachi Magic Wand and wasn’t impressed at its cumbersome size.  As I like to refer to it, it’s like taking a sledge hammer to crack a nut in terms of clitoral stimulation but it’s one hell of a back massager which is the only thing I use mine for these days.

The Wanachi falls somewhere in the middle in terms of size, not being as large as the Hitachi but not as small as the Fairy Wand I have tested.  It falls between the two and therefore appears to be ideal for both jobs and comes complete with interchangeable heads.

I’ve also experienced the Hitachi’s interchangeable heads which were made of some form of gel which had a nasty smell and stickiness about it that just put me right off.  Not so with the heads for the Multi Wanachi, they are twice as good, being made of ABS plastic for rigidity and coated in silicone for body friendly play.

And Pipedream have taken the whole interchangeable head thing one step further and made them screw on so they remain secure and carry the vibrations better than a soft headed vibrator.

Overall I was impressed with the build quality and the fact that this battery operated toy unlike its bigger counterpart can be used in water.  Try that with a Hitachi Magic Wand and your bathtime will never be the same again, illuminating!  Lol

I’ll go and wash the Wanchi down whilst you read the important bits.

The Multi Wanachi offers…

  • Multi speed vibrations, 9 in total.
  • 3 interchangeable heads for targeted pleasure.
  • Easy to operate with a simple push button control.
  • Is easy to position with its flexible head.
  • Is waterproof for a little bathroom pleasure.
  • Is operated via 2 x C batteries.

I decided to go with the head which resembled my favourite Muppet, Gozon.  Lol  The hooked shaped probe looked like it would possibly double up as a shallow vaginal massager as well as a clit vibe.

To take full advantage of my new toy I ran a bath and slipped in to the warm water retrieving the Wanachi from the side of the bath.  It soon took on the warmth of the water and I introduced the tip to my clit, rubbing it gently up and down over my fleshy hood.

Several presses of the control took my massager in to a vibratory pattern which soon had my clit pulsing.  How good did it feel to be caressed by the fragrant warm water whilst my clit was being teased with the powerful vibrations.

I ran the head of the Wanachi down to my opening and attempted to push the tip in and much to my dismay the angle of the tip wasn’t quite right and stopped the head penetrating me.  Shame I would have liked to feel the head massage my vaginal opening.

Back to the clit it was.  I settled down against the end of the bath once more and with eyes closed I ran the hook of the head up and down my clitoral hood between my puffy labia.  It felt good., as the curved tip nuzzled between my pussy lips.

The combined weight of the Wanachi and the vibratory pattern soon had my tingling from top to toe and release was imminent.  I pushed my feet against the bottom of the bath as I tilted my pelvis upwards. Pressing my clit firmly against the tip of the vibrator.

With the applied pressure the vibrations were even more enhanced and I found myself spasming as my orgasm gripped me.  I now had both hands on my massager, keeping it firmly in place over my throbbing clit.  As my little pink bud became post orgasmicaly sensitive I had to turn off my Wanachi and remove it from between my legs.

This vibrator is not the smallest I’ve used but it is versatile with its interchangeable heads and would suit all levels of user because you only need to take things as far as you like.  I will certainly be testing the other beaded head which looks like it would be more suited to vaginal penetration than the one I tested and then there is another head for later…

 

 

 
Lelo SenseMotion Lyla

Lelo SenseMotion Lyla

I decided that it would be a good way of testing my latest remote toy and interesting if I tried it out whilst preparing the courses for my festive family dinner.  It’s so easy to get hot and sweaty when preparing a menu so a little intervention from a pleasure object was most welcome.

As you may be aware already the SenseMotion range of adult toys is the latest concept from Lelo.  Not only can you control your settings via the remote control but you can also tailor your vibratory pleasure with the slightest movement of the control because the unit has motion detectors built in to it to react to your every move.

Sounds good!  I couldn’t wait to put the Lyla bullet or egg you decide, in to action in the crotch of my panties.

I will add at this point that I will only be using blunt instruments during my kitchen naughtiness, don’t want to run the risk of ending up in casualty over the Christmas break.  Lol

Lelo have designed the Lyla with your comfort and stimulation in mind and have created an ovoid bullet with a raised ridge along it which should sit nicely between your pussy lips.  The antenna also doubles up as a retrieval cord, how considerate!  See nothing escapes an experienced toy reviewer’s eye.  ;)

You get on with reading the Lyla’s features whilst I gather my ingredients together for this sponge cake I’m about to make.  Be back soon.

The Lelo Lyla is…

  • Fully charged in just 2 hours with a runtime of up to 2 hours, whilst the control unit (battery opertated) will give you up to 10 hours of play.
  • The remote has a range of up to 12 meters or 39 feet in old money.
  • Has a standby time of up to 90 days, so you can retrieve this toy for play days after charging a useful feature.
  • Features 6 vibratory patterns and variable speed control via the preset settings and movement control settings.

I removed my Lyla from its exquisite black velvet interior where it sat next to the trademark Insignia brooch.and popped out the remote.  You are provided with a  plastic key to assist in the removal of the back of the remote control.

After cleansing my Lyla and loading the batteries I slipped the vibrating bullet/egg in to the gusset of my panties and descended the stairs wearing a rather naughty grin.  Nigella eat your heart out!  Lol

Once in the kitchen I turned on the remote and the vibrations kicked in.  I started to tilt my control this way and that to enjoy the multispeed vibrations.  But instead of variable vibrations they stopped all together.  I persisted, tilting the control and waving it around in the hope that my bullet would start to vibrate once more.

Nothing….

I give every toy a chance to redeem itself should it have problems but in this case I’m afraid that I lost all faith in Lelo’s SenseMotion.  Previously I had tried their Tiani and had similar problems, even after switching control units in case there was a technical problem.   It seems that the toy itself is powerful and pleasureable but the remote unit lets it down, as soon as there is an obstacle in the path of transmition like pussy lips the remote is rendered utterly hopeless.

I even tried holding the remote mere inches from the bullets antennae and it still failed.  And it’s not like you can preset the setting and then place the Lyla in your panties, transmission fails and cuts out all together.

I’m sorry to say that as a remote toy the SenseMotion range (with the exception of the Oden cock ring) is not a product I would recommend you spend your hard earned cash on.  The range is pricey and doesn’t deliver therefore I cannot ask that you pay the premium price that Lelo products command.

Lelo really do have some issues to address and perhaps relaunch with a more reliable product.  I feel so disappointed because this could have been such a revolution in sex toys with its powerful motor, remote that echoes the vibrations felt by the user and orientation controlled vibrations; Sadly it falls well short of its initial promise.

 

 
We-Vibe 3

We-Vibe 3

This sex toy review is of the third incarnation of the revolutionary We-Vibe sex toy. In case you don’t know the We-Vibe is a toy that is enjoyed by both partners during vaginal intercourse and as such is almost unique in placing vibrations inside the woman’s vagina and on her clitoris with obvious pleasurable consequences for both partners.

The original We-Vibe had two speeds and at the time we were pretty blown away by this particular couples sex toy. Since then a second incarnation has appeared that incorporated more functions. Now there’s the We-Vibe 3 with more functions and two huge leaps in functionality, one of which we were urging the manufacturers to incorporate since the first version. Better still they have taken one of these improvements a step further than we had envisaged to again produce a really excellent product.

So what are the enhancements?

First of all is the recharging mechanism. The We-Vibe has always been a rechargeable sex toy but unfortunately until version 3 the charging was accomplished via a hole in the otherwise waterproof silicone shell of the toy. We always regarded this as relegating the We-Vibe from waterproof to water resistant and not a practical toy to use under water, say in the bath.

The We-Vibe changes all that by incorporating an inductive charging mechanism like that found in electric tooth brushes. Now the smooth silicone skin of the toy is totally sealed and therefore 100% waterproof, aiding play in the wettest of environments with lots of lube and making thorough cleaning completely hassle free.

Next is a remote control that allows either partner to adjust the speed/pattern of the vibrations being delivered with a click of the thumb. It’s a simple control, totally sealed and with only one click action too its impossible to get confused as you turn the We-Vibe 3 on, step up through the functions and finally turn it off by holding the button in for a few seconds.

Finally, taking these two improvements one step further the people at We-Vibe have made the remote control unit rechargeable too! This is really unusual as in our experience even premium toys need replaceable batteries for the remote control unit. Both the We-Vibe 3 and its remote control unit charge in their own specially designed cradle, complete with cover which means you can charge the toy discretely while keeping it clean.

A small point to note here. Our We-Vibe was a European model, supplied with a continental 2-pin plug. Being experienced sex toy testers and receiving toys from across the globe we have the appropriate travel adapter to charge this from a UK three pin socket but it may be worth checking you have the appropriate adapter available when you order your We-Vibe.

All in all the We-Vibe 3 is very impressive, addressing almost all the criticisms we had of it in the past and even going one better with the rechargeable remote control. So what is it like to use?

Well while there are now other couples toys of similar shape to the original We-Vibe, even some with remote controls this evolution of the We-Vibe is still the best for these reasons:

  • It’s very powerful, there are only two constant speeds and 4 pulsing/escalating ones but they work perfectly and really rock your world so you don’t need a zillion variations.
  • It’s now fully waterproof making it hygienic and not liable to be damaged by water ingress as earlier models with non-inductive charging (potentially) were.
  • Is compatible with UK, European and US mains supplies so you can take it anywhere in the world.
  • Has a charging system that keeps the toy out of sight, out of harm’s way and removes the need for replaceable batteries altogether.
  • Has a remote control that works when you are having sex.

Now, you would have thought that final point was a prerequisite for a remote controlled sex toy but apparently not because in some of the toys we’ve tried in the past the remote control is very erratic, especially when the user/users are actually having sex. Apart from a few occasions when we were locked on positions that would have acted as a shield to the remote’s signals the We-Vibe 3’s remote was very reliable.

Another very practical feature of the We-Vibe 3 is that it does not have the tendency to pop out while you’re having sex. We found that a direct rival of a similar design did, which rather spoils the moment. You have to use plenty of lube with toys like this to ensure sex is smooth and pleasurable so the fact that the We-Vibe 3 stays in place demonstrates what a perfect shape the toy is. You need a little care not to press the toy too vigorously into your partner’s clitoris during sex, but that only applies if the male partner is getting a little too enthusiastic – guilty as charged :-) .

A particular feature of the We-Vibe that came as a surprise to us when we used the original model was that as you screw the tone of the device alters and you make a sort of music as you make love. That still applies with the We-Vibe three.

If I had to level one criticism at the We-Vibe 3 it’s that the surface finish of the high quality silicone is shiny. A slightly silky finish holds lube better but this is a minor criticism of a really great couples’ toy.
