Form 2 by JimmyJane: Half The Rabbit, But Twice The Fun!


USE: The Form 2 by JimmyJane is one of those versatile toys that can be used nearly anywhere, by anyone. It is quiet making it discreet for those who do not live alone. It is completely waterproof for fun in the tub/pool/shower. It is rechargeable. It is powerful enough to satisfy power-queens like myself. The ideal use for this toy would be as a clit stimulator, but it also stimulates nipples, the penis, scrotum, and perineum. He is not designed for use inside the body, however. The design is such that it can be used easily solo, but also as an addition to couples play, for beginners and advanced users alike. The fact that you can use the ears to pinch body parts also adds an element of fetish for those who like to take toys to the next level.

MATERIAL: The Form 2 is made with phthalate-free and body-safe medical grade 100% silicone and a small circular stainless steel piece about the size of a quarter on the bottom that is used to recharge your toy. Even straight out the package the Form 2 had no odor (or taste) and does not seem to retain odors either (major plus!). The feel of Form 2 is velvety-soft and completely smooth, but the core is not at all flexible, making me think the silicone is either solid or covering plastic. This material is suitable for all users and could even be safely shared with proper cleaning.

DESIGN: If you should ever meet the designer of the Form 2 you might be conflicted of whether to kiss or kick him! The Form 2 is fairly small, fitting nicely in the palm of your hand making it the perfect travel companion as it is neither too large nor screams sextoy. The base houses the dual motors and the two rabbit ears both vibrate with incredible power. The ears are designed as such that the user can cradle their clit between the ears or run them over the labia in a way that is just not possible with standard rabbit shapes. The ears are made to be slightly flexible so you can lightly pinch your clit, nipples, or other erogenous zones. The combined vibrations and pinching feels absolutely incredible! However, because the ears were designed to flexible, when they shift too much it stimulates what has been called the Form 2 fatal flaw. The flaw is such that the vibrations shift from the ears into the base temporarily, until the ears are returned to the correct position. Can you say buzz kill?

PERFORMANCE: The beauty of the Form 2 is that unlike other rabbit vibes designed for your clit that vibrate from the base and barely stimulate during use, this toy vibrates from the ears themselves. This means that the vibrations remain strong even when the toy is in contact with your body. It is rather like two bullet vibes built in one beautiful machine. The vibrations themselves are an interesting mixture of a higher buzz and yet a deeper rumble at the same time, which I have not felt in any other toy before and is highly effective. The Form 2 has only three controls which are covered by the silicone finish. They are conveniently located on the top of the base, although you have to be deliberate when pushing them. The (+) button will turn your toy on and increase vibrations strength. Alternately, the (-) button will shut your toy off and decrease vibrations. The third button (~) controls the four stimulation modes, which are as follows:
1. steady vibration
2. steady vibration with a intermittent pulse. This feels like the unit is flicking your clit while vibrating and is quite pleasant.
3. a slow revving of the motor from low to full power.
4. rapid pulse
One thing I wish the Form 2 had would be the ability for the vibrations to pulse alternately between the two ears. Unfortunately it is all or nothing, as the ears work in unison on all modes. Even with dual motors, the Form 2 is incredibly quiet and would not be heard behind a closed door. It is easy to recharge just by returning it to the charging dock, on which the metal base connects to two prongs and will illuminate when correctly placed. However, connecting the metal base to the prongs can be a bit finicky at times, so you would want to store this where it wouldn't be getting disturbed (by items such as by the bass of a radio or TV, slamming doors, etc.) The one feature of this toy that failed me was in the water. I took it in tub, it is indeed waterproof (so far so good), but when I activated it the vibrations automatically shifted to the base (darn fatal flaw!). I tried it on several modes and speeds, starting both in and out of the water. While being submerged, the vibrations always would shift. This was not an issue in the shower, however.

MAINTENANCE: The Form 2 is easy to care for and maintain. During use only water-based lube should be used (never silicone lube or oil as it may cause the material to deteriorate). To clean the manufacturer recommends using warm water and mild soap, and since it is waterproof, you can do a thorough job without risk to your toy! Because silicone is non-porous material it can be sterilized by wiping with a 10% bleach solution to prevent the spread of infection between users. Never boil or microwave the Form 2 as it will ruin the motors. After ensuring that your toy has dried completely, the Form 2 should be returned to the charging base. One of the Form 2's best features is that it will not hurt the battery if it is left on the charger at all times! However, it would be nice if the charging stand came with a cover as it does seem to collect a small amount of lint between uses. Otherwise for storage, JimmyJane does not provide a pouch, so be sure to include one with your order.

PACKAGING: The Form 2 was packaged in a small and tasteful white box that had a picture of it on the side. In the box were plastic forms that secured both the Form 2 and its charger, as well as the instruction manual (in multiple languages), and 3-year warranty. Although the box is discreet, it would not be useful as a gift-box or for storing your Form 2. The manufacturer has designed the unit as such that the Form 2 is displayed on the charging cradle rather than housed in a storage container.

CONSIDERATIONS: If not for the Form 2's fatal flaw, I think this toy could be one to go down in history as something everyone liked. Unfortunately, some users are going to find this shifting makes the toy frustrating and possibly useless as a clit stimulator. How to know if this toy is for you? If you like to have a variety of mild to strong vibrations from a unit that is placed gently over your clit, you most likely won't stimulate the flaw and may love this toy. If you are the type that likes to press your toys hard against your pubis, you may be likely to stimulate the flaw. I have found that this toy will put up with a fair bit of manipulation before the vibrations shift and I have been able to use it on other erogenous zones with no issues. As a toy grinder, I am still able to use it on my clit, albeit more cautiously.

FOLLOW-UP: Form 2, I've done you an injustice. Now that I've learned how to play with you a little better, I would definitely give you 5 stars! I'll admit, the shifting was a major turn-off at first but I kept coming back to this toy because the vibrations were so incredible. Once I figured out what I was doing down there to stimulate the flaw, I am now able to avoid it most of the time. I can even grind against it a bit now just by putting the pressure more on the base as opposed to the ears. He is now easily my favorite toy out of my stash.
I would like to note however, I have found that since I like to have him close-by rather than constantly back on his charger, the actual usage time (on high) is closer to 2-3 hours. Obviously, I mean 2-3 hours used intermittently over the course of a week or two and returned to my drawer, not 2-3 hours straight. If you do always return him to his base, I doubt you would ever run him dead in one session.
I'm almost done, but I want to mention on more thing, anarchy! Anarchy is something I learned about after my original review and is an alternate mode that is stimulated by starting in any mode and then pushing +- +- +- in rapid succession (use both thumbs). Give it a few seconds to take effect and you will notice that the Form 2 will cycle automatically through its four modes over and over again until you push the (~) button. God I love chaos!


 

Form 6 by JimmyJane: Formed For Everyone


USE:    The Form 6 is so versatile it would be easier to describe what you couldn't use it for... wait, I still can't think of anything! This powerful toy is going to work for men, women, and couples. It is going to work for users of all skill levels. It is going to work on all the erogenous zones (clit, labia, g-spot, prostate, filling insertion, nipples, even as a back or neck massager). On top of that, it has dual motors for each end, the smaller end with a higher pitch rumble, the larger end with a strong deep thrum. It carries a charge that lasts up to 6 hours, can be sterilized, is quiet, and can even go in the tub with you. What more could you ask for?
MATERIAL:    The Form 6 is made from inflexible, non-sticky, velvet-soft, latex-free body-safe silicone with a small stainless steel band baring JimmyJane connecting the larger portion to the neck of the g-spotter. This metal band is how JimmyJane ensures your Form 6 is completely waterproof and that every area is suitable for full body contact, because it acts as the port on which it receives the charge rather than using a jack-pin. This toy has no taste or smell, and does not retain odors. The silicone is completely smooth (creating only a slight drag when well lubed), excepting for the seam that runs lengthwise around the toy and 3 small raised silicone buttons, which are not felt during use and make this perfect for beginners and advanced users alike.

DESIGN / SHAPE / SIZE

The design of Form 6 is ingenious! The entire toy measures 7 inches long and 1 ¾ inches diameter at its widest point on the longer shaft. It gently tapers down to the neck to 1 inch over the metal band and slightly back out on the g-spotter up to 1 ¼ inches. The shape is simple, one end is gently curved into the perfect prostate/g-spotter (hitting that spot perfectly) or as a pinpoint clit stimulator. The firmness of the toy makes it ideal to carry the vibrations easily over your clit (and inside) or to your g-spot and give it firm strength while massaging the g-spot. The other end is long and straight making it perfect for filling insertion (neither overly large nor will it leave you wanting) or deeper all-over body massage with the silicone creating a slight drag unless lubed, in which it is slippery fun. This toy is easily hidden on the charging dock that covers it or could even be left out without screaming sextoy. And best yet? The lock-button feature means it is travel ready without worry of accidental powering.

PERFORMANCE:    When it comes to functionality and performance, Jimmyjane delivers with their Form 6. Too often we are sold vibrators that don't have enough power to stimulate beyond a light buzz, but this toy is mega-powerful. I wouldn't even hesitate to compare the strength to some AC vibes, it is that good. The entire surface of the Form 6 vibrates from the high-pitch pin-point head to the diffuse deep thrumming body. Because the strength of the vibrations are easily controlled and have different pitches, it is sure to please both those who like a light tease and power-queens alike. The fact that it lasts 6+ hours on a single 2 hour charge means it won't let you down either. The vibrations are controlled by the 3 silicone covered buttons. The unit can be turned on/off by holding any button down deliberately for 2 seconds. The Form 6 will flash to indicate a button has been pushed, but will not turn on unless held. The (o) button controls the intensity of the curved head. The (O) button controls the intensity of the of the shaft.. with each push increasing intensity to the highest level and then starting over. The (~) button accesses the 6 stimulation modes which are as follows.
1. constant- constant vibration, no pattern
2. oscillate- a waving motion from one end to the other creating sensation of movement
3. reverberate- slow revving of the motors from low to high
4. thrum- faster and more powerful revving of the motors from low to high
5. ripple- fast, moderate pulse of the motors
6. pulse- fast, powerful pulse of the motors.
Best of all, your Form 6 remembers the last setting you used and returns to it when you come back to play (and believe me, you will be back!). This toy is waterproof and fully submergible with no decrease in power underwater, although the sound of vibrations tend to reverberate in the bathtub. However, I doubt this would be an issue in a larger body of water such as a pool. In normal use this toy is quiet and would not be heard through a closed door, even on high power. The only issue I have with the Form 6 is the buttons themselves. They are located on the shaft and easy enough to detect even without looking, you do have to be deliberate in pushing them, and since they are so small it can be a challenge with lube on your fingers. The other button issue is that because they are on the shaft, you are unable to use the controls if you have the shaft inserted. Furthermore, if your kegels are strong, orgasmic contractions may cause the unit to turn off. Unfortunately, this has happened to me more than once
.

MAINTENANCE:    I can't imagine an easier toy to care for than the Form 6. Only water-based lube should be used for lubrication (silicone-lube or oil could cause the silicone to deteriorate). The manufacturer recommends cleaning with mild soap and warm water, but you may also wipe with a 10% bleach solution to sterilize. This toy should not be boiled or microwaved because of the internal motors. Once your toy has dried completely, you need only put it back on the charging dock with the metal pieces touching the metal prong on the charger and watch to insure the 2 charging indicator lights come on. No need to remember to take this toy off the charger, around the clock charging will not harm the battery. (initial charging of 8 hours, otherwise 2 hours to a full charge.) And bless the designers over at Jimmyjane, they have even made the charging dock with a cover so no need to worry about lint or prying eyes! The Form 6 was designed to be stored on the charging dock rather than stored away in a toybox, making it easy to reach for whenever the mood strikes. However, there was no pouch included for travel, so be sure to add on with your order. Although you could transport using the charging dock, and would probably want to for extended vacation, you would have to be sure to store in a protective box as the plastic case could crack.

PACKAGING:    The Form 6 arrived in a discreet white box that had a picture of the toy on the sides. Inside the toy was carefully enclosed in white plastic that held the Form 6, charging dock, instruction manual, and 3-year warranty. The charging dock doubles as the storage case, which I love. It is a classy translucent black that will disguise your toy even in plain sight, but is just semi-opaque enough to allow the charging indicator lights to shine through.

EXPERIENCE
I have to say that the Form 6 tends to be my go-to vibrator. No matter what I am in the mood for, I can have it with this toy. My favorite way to use this toy is to place the entire unit over my vulva with the g-spotter pointing down and letting the deep thrum of the shaft stimulate my clit. The most unique sensation is when you use the wave mode, where the vibrations literally wave from one end to the other, creating the sensation of movement. For me, this is followed closely by the revving of the motors from low to high vibrations. For insertion I do prefer the larger shaft, the tapered neck creates an interesting drag with thrusting making you feel nice and full and the deep vibration carries very well from deep inside all the way to your entrance. The g-spotter works equally well and had the perfect curve and vibration for me. I especially loved that when using the g-spotter the neck tapers back out creating a fuller feeling at the entrance maximizing stimulation. Yum! If you have the money to spend on this toy, I highly recommend it, you will not be disappointed.

FOLLOW-UP
Follow-up commentary I still like it 2 months after original review
In two short months, my Form 6 has gotten knocked slightly off his pedestal. Granted he is the wonderful toy I described him as, but when I am looking for a certain type of stimulation, I have individual specialized toys that work better on my clit or g-spot and have led to my Form 6 getting slightly neglected.
In the areas I doubt any other vibe could replace him would be for travel, as you have so many toys in one, and for couples play. If you are looking to take one toy to bed that will do anything and everything, from starting out as a nice back massage to mind-blowing clit/g-spot/p-spot orgasms, this guy will do the trick like no other.

Swirly Deuce Jr. by SSA Glass


USE
The Swirly Deuce Jr. is best suited for lady's solo or for couples play, for the skilled or advanced user. I especially see this toy adorning the bedrooms of BDSM couples, as it has so many different ways to be used and is a bit taboo. Loosely shaped after a gun, one side will fulfill all of your DP fantasies, while the handle/single shaft can be used for warming-up or g-spotting. Unfortunately, this toy would not be suitable to be used by both partners at the same time due to the overall shape and general length of the shafts. While it may be possible to try if the female partner is particular small in the derriere, I would be concerned that the pressure from the other partner's thrusts could cause injury. Extra care must be taken while thrusting as glass can bruise your insides, although I doubt any of the shafts would be quite long enough to reach the cervix. The wonderful thing about glass is that you can create unique sensations with temperature play. Imagine the pleasure of having one warm shaft inserted while the other was nice and cool, orgasmic!

MATERIAL / TEXTURE
Glass toys are completely firm (having no give), non-porous, hypoallergenic, and have no smell or taste. All three shafts are completely straight with differing textures. The handle/single shaft has small nubs that are neither too big nor too rough and create an interesting sensation at your entrance, ensuring you feel every delectable inch. The smaller diameter and length anal probe is completely smooth, while the DP vaginal shaft is larger and covered with gorgeous blue piping creating a rippling sensation throughout that will please advanced users and still be gentle enough for those who do not like texture. Further adding to the joy of glass, less lubrication than normal is needed as the material will not absorb moisture. Best of all, you can use warm/cold water to create different sensations with temperature play.

DESIGN / SHAPE / SIZE
The design of the Swirly Deuce is a mixture of innovation and classic. All three shafts are completely straight with bulbous heads rounding out the tips. The anal probe is by far the smallest measuring 1 inch diameter over the the head, ¾" shaft and 4" insertable, and is separated 1 1/2 inches from the tip of the vaginal to anal shaft. While the blue swirled shaft is 1 ¼ inch diameter over the head, 1" shaft, and 4 1/2" insertable length. Finally, the single shaft is 1 1/3 inch diameter over the head, 1 1/8" shaft, and 3 3/4" insertable length. Being made of glass (and heavy, weighing 14.2 ounces), this toy tends to feel slightly larger inside than similarly size toys in softer materials. However, the dimensions are neither too intimidating for beginners, nor too paltry for advanced users. The interesting mixture of shape, colors, and textures is not discreet, but would make an exceptional risqué conversation piece. Unfortunately, this toy is rather large and because of its complex shape, I don't think it would be the best traveling companion. This toy is best suited for those who love glass and DP, and those who have everything else and are looking for a unique toy that will suit more than one purpose.

PERFORMANCE
The best feature of the Swirly Deuce is the shape, which allows solo users ease in DP, yet creates a handle making it easy to include a partner. Although the size of the dual shafts can look intimidating, they were quite easy to take, even for a beginner like me. Originally concerned that the inflexibility between the two shafts may make this toy hard or impossible to insert, I encountered no difficulties (especially past the head), and the smoothness of the glass eased insertion even further. The two shafts create a completely full feeling, without feeling uncomfortably stretched. Rather than feeling overly stuffed as you may experience from two full size shafts, the experience was more like having a large finger inserted in the bum while you are having sex.
Even better, when you aren't in the mood for DP, the handle is also a single shaft so this toy can be your go-to guy no matter what mood you are in! Because the other shafts then become handles, it is easy to manipulate the head of the single shaft to simulate the g-spot. Or use temperature play and excite in the feeling of letting the dual handles bounce against your bum or clit sending hot or cold sensations. None of the shafts are overly long, so you won’t experience that “deep” feeling, but the textures, temperature, and bulbous head will thrill from the entrance to even the deepest g-spots.
One issue with the Swirly Deuce that complexes me is that when using DP, the handle faces behind you. This means to use the handle effectively you must either reach around behind you or have your partner do the honors. However, the top anchor that holds the dual shafts is comfortable to hold onto from the front so you don't have to twist yourself into a pretzel to use this guy.

CARE AND MAINTANCE
There may be no easier material to care for than your glass toys. It is compatible with all types of lube, so you can use whatever feels best for your body. And when it comes to cleaning or sterilizing? No problem! This toy is non-porous and can be cleaned with mild soap and hot water. For extra protection it can be sterilized by soaking in a 10% bleach solution, boiled for 10 minutes (but be sure to place a washcloth on the bottom to prevent chipping), or even thrown in the dishwasher. For all the couples out there, this is perfect because it means you can share your toy without risk of infection. However, if you will be sharing before sterilizing, be sure to use a condom.
Fortunately, there is no need to separate this toy from your other toys. But because of its unique shape and size, you will need to make some considerations for its storage. It is unlikely to fit in a standard pouch, and I wouldn't recommend just tossing it in a drawer because you wouldn't want it to chip. What worked for me was to purchase some quilters batting then cutting and gluing layers to the top, bottom, and sides to pad the box that it came in and using it for storage. As always with your glass toys, be sure to carefully inspect for signs of cracks or chips before each use, and do not use if they are present as injury or infection may occur. With careful storage and maintenance, this toy just may outlast you!

PACKAGING
The Swirly Deuce Jr. was sweetly packaged in a very discreet white gift-box with random lime-green polka dots covering it and secured with tape. There was no writing or pictures on the box meaning it would be great gift box. It would also double as a discreet storage box for your toy or reused for birthdays or Christmas to hold sweaters or books. Inside, the Swirly Deuce was tightly wrapped and protected by mounds of bright fuchsia tissue paper, which really made me feel like I had indeed received a special and exciting gift.

EXPERIENCE
I have to admit that this toy was not only my first glass, but also my first DP, and I was feeling more than a little intimidated upon taking him out of his beautiful box. The first time out with him I was only brave enough to check out the single shaft. I was surprised that he was smooth enough to slide in comfortably without additional lube following some light clit play. Having the blue swirl shaft facing up, I was able to use it as a handle and create the perfect angle for the head to stimulate my g-spot. Wow! And the feeling of the large head tugging gently against my entrance almost made it feel as though it was held inside by suction.
The second time around I was feeling much more confident and decided to try out the dual stimulators. Although there is no flexibility in the shafts, they fit perfectly to my anatomy. The anal probe was small enough that I was easily able to handle it (as a beginner), and the beautiful blue swirls whirled and twirled me into DP heaven. And my favorite part? I love that because the shafts are connected it creates ease in using one-handed, so the other hand is available for simultaneous clit play. I did not attempt to clean and use the DP backwards (although I imagine it would work well) because I felt the blue shaft was too large for my personal comfort in anal insertion. If I am able to work myself up to it, I will include that in my follow-up review.

Thank you Edenfantasys.com for allowing me to review this product.

Elements Theta by Tantus


USE / DESIGN / SHAPE When it comes to versatility, this toy knows how to work the most of its sprouting tulip design. Suitable for ladies, gents, and couple's play, the 3 1/2 x 2 inch flared base is compatible with strap-on harnesses or safe for anal play. The 1" diameter bulbous-head that sits over the graduated curved neck will stimulate the g-spot or p-spot. You can even turn the toy backwards and let the elegant curved 5 1/2" insertable shaft stimulate the g-spot while the head slides in deeper for extra stimulation. While not big enough for a "filling" experience, Theta works its curves to stimulate your erogenous zones so you won't miss the extra size. Whether you are new to toys or a connoisseur, she is as pleasing to the nether bits as she is to the eye.


MATERIAL/ TEXTURE
Theta is made of non-porous, 100% medical-grade silicone and is completely hypoallergenic. Straight out of the package it had no taste, no smell, and felt satin soft when I ran my fingers across the beautiful curves. The entire toy is very flexible. I can actually bend the tip down to touch the base, and it has a moderate amount of give when squeezing, but is still firm enough to insert easily. The only texture to be found on Theta is a very small triangle of ribbing located on the top of the base that massages your clit when you make small rocking motions against it.


FUNCTIONS / PERFORMANCE / CONTROLS
Elements Theta vibrates via a small one-speed bullet inserted into the base of the shaft. The bullet produces a mild high-frequency buzz that is felt lightly at the base and faintly at the head. Even when I place it on my nose, I can barely feel the vibes from the tip. The bullet is easily controlled with a push-button that turns the unit on and off. Although I did not use this toy in a harness, I am concerned that the location of the button would push against the wearer turning the bullet on and off with each thrust. This and the low level intensity of the vibrations leads me to suggest pairing this toy with a stronger bullet, unless you are very sensitive to vibrations.

This toy is stunning, but not discreet in appearance. It clearly looks like a dildo, although it is small enough to be tucked away in a toy pouch for storage or for travel in a purse or suitcase. There is not a button-lock, so be sure to remove the bullet to prevent accidental powering. And fortunately for those who have thin walls and roommates, this is one very quite toy, barely discernable through the covers, especially with a fan on. However, as this is based on the bullet that comes with the toy, remember that if you upgrade your bullet it may be a bit louder. Although the silicone does tend to muffle the sound a bit. Furthermore, simply removing the bullet, or replacing with a water-proof one means you have just added half a dozen new places to use this toy.

CARE AND MAINTANIENCE
If there is an easier toy to care for, I can hardly imagine! Theta is compatible with water-based lube (avoid silicone as it may melt your toy) and washes easily with mild soap and warm water or toy cleaner. To sterilize (recommended if sharing between partners or orifices) simply remove the bullet from Theta and you can dip in a mixture of 10% bleach solution, boil, or even put her in the dishwasher. She does collect a small amount of lint, so I recommend storing her in a toy pouch. Be sure to add one to your order as one is not included.

PACKAGING
Theta arrived in a clear plastic box with black letter instructions on the sides, leaving the exquisite pearlized toy open to view and advertise itself. There were only two items in the package, the Theta herself, and a small bullet with pre-inserted watch batteries. Very simple. And while it might not be suitable for storage, it would make a cute gift either covered with wrapping paper or simply left out to view with nothing but a bow on top.

Jollet by Jollies: Jollet Is My Romeo

To date, Jollet is by far my favorite dildo, and I highly recommend him to anyone!

(Picture taken against quilters square. Each box represents one square inch. Base placed at 0.)
 


USE / DESIGN / SHAPE
A cross between a realistic and futuristic dildo, Jollet is intended for vaginal insertion with the added bonus of g-spot stimulation. Since it is silicone and has a flared base this toy could also be used anally, although its girth may be a bit much for most.

To understand how truly wonderful Jollet is, you must know that she is specially shaped after a mold of a woman's vagina. The head is nearly 1 1/2” diameter and slightly flattened, easing insertion. The bump that slowly builds up and massages the g-spot peaks at 3” deep and rounds out at a whopping 2” diameter and then slims back down to 1 3/4“ diameter. The best thing about the way Jollet is shaped versus her curved counterparts is that since she is 7” long, she is going to reach the g-spots of both women with short g-spots and those whose are deep, as well as being able to be inserted more fully for moderate thrusting. The three slightly raised bumps at the bottom are comfortable and provide extra stimulation against the entrance when more fully inserted.

Although Jollet is the ideal shape and size for most women, because this toy is firm and a bit girthy, I wouldn't recommend it to virgins or those who prefer slim-line toys. Jollet could be tucked into a medium size purse discreetly enough, but should anyone find it, they would definitely guess what it was. Therefore, for travel I would recommend putting this toy in your suitcase to avoid embarrassing moments.    

MATERIAL / TEXTURE
I'll admit, I was a bit disappointed when I first opened my Jollet as she was not even close to the color depicted on the website. In life she is a flat medium lavender purple with a touch of glitter inside that is only detectable when you hold her directly up to your face and reminds me of a jelly toy. She continues to remind me of a jelly toy in texture as well; not the matte velvet-soft texture I have come to expect from silicone toys, she has almost a shiny rubber/jellylike texture with a moderate amount of drag when I run my fingers over her finish meaning lube is generally a must to ease insertion. Fortunately, this toy is non-porous (and body-safe) so she doesn't soak up your lube.

Grabbing ahold of her I note that she is quite firm with only the slightest amount of give when I squeeze tightly. She has no smell or taste, nor does she retain odors from lubes or… anything else. The silicone tends to maintain a cool temperature, even after being inserted for a few minutes so she would also be good for temperature play. Jollet is completely smooth, with no texture making her perfect for beginners or advanced users.

PERFORMANCE
Jollet does have a flared-base and should be harness compatible, but I do not have a harness and was unable to try it this way. She does not have a suction-cup. Instead, she has a hole in the base that could be used to insert a small bullet (use some lube to ease insertion). The vibrations travel through Jollet pretty well. However, since the only bullet small enough to fit inside her 1/2” diameter hole that I own has very weak buzzy vibes, I don't bother with it. For those who own stronger bullets or are more sensitive, this may work better for you. For me, the slow seduction of my g-spot is enough stimulation.

A learner's curve is not really needed to enjoy Jollet since her g-spot bump automatically finds the g-spot. Depending on the mood, she can be used by slowly working back and forth over the g-spot, or deeper to explore the little known a-spot (anterior fornix erogenous zone: this is located midway between a woman's cervix and g-spot on the front wall of the vagina and is extremely sensitive to touch). Because of her shape, the bump does not snag the pubic bone like some may, and creates a suction-like sensation inside that is very pleasurable.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

As with all pure silicone toys, Jollet is compatible with water-based lubes (avoid silicone lubes as they are not compatible with silicone toys) and is super easy to care for, requiring only mild soap and warm water to keep clean. If you plan on sharing this toy or using her anally I recommend sterilizing with a 10% bleach solution, rubbing alcohol, or boiling water. Jollet should then be stored in a toy pouch as she tends to collect lint, but be sure to add one to your order as one is not included. She can then be stored with other high quality silicone toys wherever you prefer to keep your stash.

PACKAGING
Packaging does not get more simplistic Jollets'. She arrived in a clear plastic box container just large enough to fit the dildo with no included instructions nor instructions on the side. In fact, the only thing it did denote was the words “Jollet” and that it is “100% platinum silicone”. The box would be simple enough to wrap for gifting, but I doubt it would make suitable storage as this toy is a lint magnet and the container does not keep lint out.

Nea by Lelo





Use
The Lelo Nea would be best suited for clitoral play, but would also feel great on nipples or to stimulate the "taint" area (t'aint the balls, t'aint ass; the taint area is the highly erogenous area between the two). Nea would be best suited for those who prefer mild to moderate "buzzy" type vibrations. Because she is just so cute and non-threatening, she would make a great addition to couples play; even with a partner who otherwise feels uncomfortable having toys included in lovemaking sessions.
Nea's discreet appearance, small size, and unique locking feature means she would be a great travel companion. She could easily fit in a purse or pocket, and because she can be used for up to 7 hours on a 2 hour charge, means a much more memorable vacation!
Nea would be best suited for those who prefer mild to moderate "buzzy" type vibrations.

Material / Texture
The Lelo Nea is made of scent-free, phthalate-free ABS hard plastic that resembles fine porcelains. She is completely smooth and has a beautiful glass-like shine that could easily be mistaken for a knickknack if placed out in the open. The smooth plastic glides easily over your body with minimal or no lube and the material carries the vibrations well.


 
Design / Shape / Size
Nea has a sleek design concept that allows the user to cradle her in the palm of your hand for use, much like the mouse for your computer, but with a slightly angled tip to curve over your pubic bone and sit neatly on the clitoris. She is quite small, at approximately 3 x 1 inches, I do feel that she could easily slip out of grasp if too much lube were to get on her or your hands. It may have been a nice touch if the sides had textured plastic or silicone to help with gripping.

 
Functions / Performance / Controls
Nea's vibrations can be felt throughout the entire toy, but are more concentrated at the tip, where it sits over the clitoris. This is nice because I was even able to turn the toy backwards and put some vibrations over my labia as well. The vibrations, even on high speed where pretty quiet. No one outside of the room is going to know you are using a vibrator, and on some settings, no one IN the room may know either!
She has 5 stimulation modes which you are able to change using one of her two buttons. The + button if held down will turn Nea on, and then up. By pressing again you will access the pulsation patterns, which start as a soft flutter and go up to a fast and steady pulse. The - button will decrease the speed or step back a pulsation pattern. If held down, Nea will shut off. It does take me a minute to get her to shut off which means in an emergency, you may not get her shut off right away.

Also, because the buttons to change speed and vibration pattern are located on the bottom, you have to lift her up to make changes which is not fun when things are getting hot and you don't want to lose sensation.
Performance is where I felt really disappointed in Nea. If you have ever watched a movie you were really looking forward to, only to find that you already seen all the good parts in the trailer, you can understand how I felt using Nea. She is beautiful, she is rechargeable, she is expensive, and for that I felt her vibrations should definitely out-perform my $10 bullet, but it wasn't even close. While the vibrations were enough to get me turned-on, they came nowhere close to putting me over the edge.

Care and Maintenance
Because she is plastic, Nea can be used with either your favorite water or silicone based lube. She can be easily cleaned with a 10% bleach solution or simple soap and water, but be mindful not to get water near the buttons as she is not waterproof. Charging Nea is super easy, she is connected to a jack-pin and must charge two hours prior to use (she cannot be used during charging), but the charge does last for 7 hours. Also, Lelo was clever enough to make the LED buttons glow red when battery life is low, so you know when to charge. She stores away nicely in the box she came in or the silky pouch that is provided.

Packaging
Nea arrives in a discreet but classy looking black box with only the Lelo label showing. I felt like an excited kid opening the package, even though I knew what would be inside. She comes with a one year warranty and instruction manual in several languages that is easy to read, although the print is a bit small. Nestled in are the Nea herself and her charger. The box itself would make a great box to store her in or use to package other items as she also comes with a silky pouch for those who prefer pouch storage.

Ina by Lelo





Use
The lovely Lelo Ina is a rabbit-style vibrator designed to simultaneously stimulate both the clit and the g-spot using dual motors. Her vibrations range from mild to intense, and will even please power-queens (like myself). She is rechargeable, lasting 4 hours on a 2 hour charge, and her controls are lockable, making her great for travel.

Material / Texture
Ina is comprised of both a hard plastic handle and a firm, non-sticky, satin-soft silicone shaft and clit stimulator. This makes her perfect for beginners and advanced users alike. The plastic and silicone help to carry the vibrations perfectly. The silicone is phthalate-free and body-safe. Best of all, it does not retain odors!!

Design / Shape / Size
The Lelo Ina takes the rabbit vibrator to the level of classy. Although anyone who happened to notice her laying around would probably realize she was a sex toy. There is nothing vulgar or childish about her lovely curves. She has only 3 1/2 inches of insertable length (1 3/8 diameter). She still commands that feeling of being full without being too intimidating for beginners. Her design for internal stimulation is perfect, especially since she is curved to rub up against the g-spot. The clitoral stimulator, however, is hard and not overly flexible. For this reason, some women may find her uncomfortable, as though their clit is being pinched. However, if like myself, you tend to push toys against your clit anyway, this just takes some of the work out of going solo! Ina also makes a great traveling companion because she holds a 4 hour charge and her controls have a locking feature so she will not accidentally turn on during transport.

Functions / Performance / Controls
The first thing you might notice about Ina is what you won't notice; this is one quiet toy! Ina's vibrations come from two separate motors; one in the clit stimulator that is a higher frequency (without being buzzy) and another in the shaft which has a deep thrum. Her four controls are conveniently located on the top of the plastic handle, making them easy to push during use. Simply pushing the (+) button will turn Ina on and increase her vibration level from soft purr to super intense; the (-) button will decrease vibration and/or turn Ina off. However, her real joy is the 8 programmed stimulation modes, that are controlled with up/down buttons.
1. constant shaft & clit stimulation
2. constant shaft only
3. constant clit stimulator only
4. rapid pulses alternating between the motors
5. synchronized rapid pulse in shaft and clit stimulator
6. a slow surge of power from the shaft that ends in a quick pulse from the clit stimulator
7. circular mode, it feels as though the vibration is circling in a swinging motion from shaft to clit stimulator
8. random pattern of pulses and intensities of the shaft and clit stimulator
I'm getting excited just thinking about #6 and #7..... Lelo, you geniuses!! Unfortunately, she is not waterproof, so no fun in bathtub with this one.

Care and Maintenance
In use, the Lelo Ina should only be used with water-based lubes (never silicone lubes; they will ruin your toy). The manufacturer recommends cleaning with antibacterial soap and water, but to sterilize you can wipe clean with a 10% bleach solution (do not boil or microwave; it will ruin Ina's motors). Either way, care should be taken not to get water near the controls or the charging site as this toy is not waterproof. Ina can be stored in the package she arrives in or in the gorgeous black satin pouch included.

Packaging
Ina arrives in a white package with a picture of Ina on the side. Inside that package is the signature black cardboard Lelo box, which recycles perfectly as a gift box. When opening the lid, first you see Ina in a plastic hanger that would be used in stores to display Ina. I don't mind the hanger, but it would be better if there was a recessed area instead, as the hangers can be torn when you are trying to open them. Underneath Ina are her instruction manual in several languages, 1 year warranty, 10 year quality guarantee (which offers 50% off after the 1 year warranty expires), and her charger.

Experience
If there was ever a toy that did it for me, Lelo Ina would be it! As soon as I was able to take her off the charger, I lubed her up, lifted the clit stimulator and slid her in. I was surprised that for as small as her shaft is, I felt perfectly filled. Then I placed the clit nub and turned Ina on and up to full vibration. Normally a Hitachi girl, I was not at all disappointed. Since she is not the type of toy to thrust with, I started to play with her various modes of stimulation. When I got to #6 & #7, I was blown away. Furthermore, I noticed a sensation I had never felt before inside. It wasn't until I was having the most intense orgasm of my life that I realized it was my g-spot, something I had looked for in vain previously, only to decide I must not have one. This is one toy that will never leave the top of the drawer!

SaSi by Je Joue




Use
The SaSi toy by Je Joue is a silcone luxury toy and definitely a one-of-kind. She simulates the feeling of being licked or lightly fondled perfectly. She is ideal for clitoral stimulation, but would also feel great on the breasts or perineum. She makes the perfect partner for slow build-up oral play, but could also be incorporated into partner play by helping to add stimulation during foreplay. Furthermore, with a push of a button, you can add vibrations and prepare to rocket to the Planet O!

Material / Texture
SaSi is made from hard plastic and covered with a non-sticky, satiny-smooth silicone sleeve meaning she is latex-free and body-safe. The silicone feels hard and has no give, except from where the "tongue" protrudes. To prevent lint collection, she comes with a satin pouch or can be stored in her box. Even holding her up close to my face, I was barely able to detect a smell, and that was of a pleasantly new/clean item.

Design / Shape / Size
SaSi is a discreet toy and could easily be mistaken for the mouse to a computer when not in use as she has approximately the same size and shape, which makes her ideal to hold onto. The controls are easy to manipulate and centered on top, near the tip, along with the port for the jack-pin. The bottom however, instead of being completely flat, is slightly concave and the upper half of plastic gives way to a place where you are able to feel the "tongue" sliding from underneath the silicone cover. I'm getting shivers just thinking about it!. She is small and would travel easily, but unfortunately does not have a locking feature so special care would have to be taken to avoid accidental powering. This toy will easily please both those new to toys and the advanced user who has everything.



Functions / Performance / Controls
There are five raised buttons that control the SaSi's movements, and like a good partner, she remembers what you like. The center button acts as the on/off switch when held for 2 seconds, or as the "like/don't stop" button when pushed once (references to other buttons will be compared to location of on/off button). The control to the right is the "favorites" menu and contains both 5 pre-programmed licking motions and the ones you have saved by pushing the "like" button. There are various licking motions to try, such as side to side, up/down, circles, etc. The control to the left is the "learning" menu and contains 20 second samples of each licking pattern. If you push the "like" button during the learning menu, SaSi will add that pattern to your favorites menu. The controls on the top and bottom, if pushed once, will increase speed of the "tongue". If held they will add and/or control vibration intensity. The vibrations come from the unit itself rather than from the "tongue" which I find somewhat disappointing as it can mask the sensation of licking. When used with vibration SaSi emits a moderate noise level, but would not be heard through a closed door (even on high). However, she is whisper quiet when used without vibration.


 Care and Maintenance
Because SaSi is a silicone toy, only water-based lube should be used (silicone lube can cause severe damage to your toy!). General care for SaSi is very easy as she can be cleaned using mild soap and water, but care should be taken not to get water near her controls because she is not waterproof. If sterilizing is required the silicone sleeve can be removed (as described in detail in the user manual), but caution should be taken to avoid ripping the cover which can be expensive to replace. SaSi will run for approximately 2 hours on a 45 minute charge, and is easily charged from the back using the included jack-pin. Initial charging takes approximately 2 hours. Unfortunately, she cannot be used while charging. After charging, she can be stored in the package she came in, or in the satin pouch included.

Packaging
SaSi is a luxury sex toy and her packaging is no exception. She comes in a black cardboard box baring only "SaSi" across the top that has become the staple of luxury toys. With an easy lift-off lid, the box could easily be used as a gift box or kept for storage. Included in the box are the multi-language user manual, 1 year Je Joue warranty, the charging cord with adapters in case you are lucky enough to travel overseas, a black satin pouch, and the SaSi herself.

Experience
On my first time out with this toy, I threw on a bit of water-based lube, spread my legs wide and placed the "tongue" over my clit... and thought, "oh no, its not very intense". So I picked her back up, added a more generous amount of lube, and repositioned her. The extra lube really helped, but when I closed my legs around this toy... I saw stars. All of the sudden, I could feel the ardent licking, and I fell in-love! This is not the type of toy you are going to get off to in a couple minutes, but like foreplay, can take you from not in the mood to climbing the walls. Myself, I am unable to orgasm from the licking alone, so I just turn the vibration on when I get close and let it rocket me to the most intense orgasms I have ever had with toy. Yes, it is that good!

Fleur De Lis Silicone Bliss by Evolved








USE / DESIGN / SHAPE

I love my Bliss by Evolved. Her best use is as a lady’s insertional vibe. Although she could be used anally with care, I must caution that her lack of flared-base is a safety concern. Her vibrations are strong enough to provide clitoral or nipple stimulation in addition to being insertable. While I am able to stimulate my g-spot slightly with this toy, I find that the lack of curve does make it very difficult. Rather, her lovely shape is more conducive to a slow seduction that builds up. This 6” insertable toy (7” total) has these wonderfully graduated balls that start at a 1” diameter and build to 1 ½”. The balls slide in easily and comfortably, but are pronounced enough that each one results in a noticeable umph of sensation. With thrusting, the balls make the toy feel slightly larger than it really is, and ensures that you are able to feel each inch as it slides in. Suitable for users of all experience levels, this vibe could easily be tucked into a nightstand or purse for travel, but be sure to remove the batteries first to prevent accidental powering.
 

 MATERIAL / TEXTURE
Incredibly plushy with a fair amount of drag, this velvety-smooth silicone feels as great as it looks. There is no texture to this toy, aside from the seam that runs completely around the toy from the top to bottom. However, it is barely felt with my fingers, and not noticeable at all in use. What makes this non-phallic vibrator so wonderful is the four rounded balls, each one just slightly graduated in size from the tip 2/3 of the way down the shaft. The silicone allows for a moderate amount of squeeze over the balls, but is completely firm at the base. With a fair amount of manipulation, the top half of shaft will bend 90 degrees, but yet it is not at all flimsy. The silicone on arrival had only the slightest scent of a freshly cleaned product. The base of the vibe boasts a silver metallic band that is plastic, as well as a plastic battery cover. All materials are body-safe and hypo-allergenic.


FUNCTIONS / PERFORMANCE / CONTROLS
I love the material and shape of Bliss enough that I would not even mind if she didn’t have any vibrations, but they really are the icing on the cake. Bliss has one push-button control that is located on the bottom of the toy. It is easily reached and manipulated, but very unlikely to be accidentally switched during use. When pushed once, her vibrations start on low. Subsequent pushes will change the speeds to medium, high, and then back off. The vibrations themselves are somewhat high-frequency, but are deep and thrumming, rather than surface buzzy. They tend to be concentrated in the tip, and are still quite strongly felt over the second ball, and then dissipate quickly over the rest of the shaft. This makes it easy to get that pin-point clitoral or g-spot stimulation, or the feeling of deep vibrations. The vibrations are also very quiet, certainly not something that would be heard through a closed door or over some white noise. At this point, battery life has been really good. I have had Bliss working over 2 hours now (not continuous) with no depletion of power

CARE AND MAINTANCE
Ahh, lovely silicone! Compatible with water-based lubes, this non-porous toy cleans easily with mild soap and warm water, or toy cleaner. Bliss is water-proof, making thorough cleaning a breeze. If sharing between partners or orifices, be sure to sterilize by wiping with 10% bleach solution or rubbing alcohol.
This toy will collect a small amount of lint, so it’s a good idea to store in its plastic tube, or purchase a toy pouch if space is a concern. Store with other silicone toys and away from jelly or cyberskin toys. Bliss does take 2 AAA batteries. To extend your battery life, be sure to remove them during storage.
 
PACKAGING
How unique! When so much detail is given to packaging, you have to be thinking that the included toy is going to be good. The Bliss arrived in a clear plastic elongated light-bulb shaped tube. There is a removable “cap” that twists in between the shaft and the battery cap. This cap is what secures the Bliss to the tube so it stands prettily upright. Granted, you could leave the cap off and still put the Bliss in the tube, but since it is not a tight fit, it might bang around a bit. The packaging would even be ideal to hang this as a sexy gift right on the Christmas tree. Sadly, no instructions what-so-ever came with the packaging

Thank you, EdenFantasys, for allowing me try this product.

Adam's Pleasureskin Cock Review: For The Fearless That Like To Feel Filled



Pros
realistic feel and appearance, suction-cup base, harness compatible, cost
Cons
porous material, requires extra care


 
Use
Adam's Pleasureskin cock is best used for penetration either vaginally or anally. This is one versatile toy because he can be used solo for riding or thrusting, with a partner helping/watching or in a harness. Either way, you will be hands-free to stimulate other parts. This toy is perfect for women and men, beginners or advanced users, but is on the larger side meaning he will create a very full feeling and adequate foreplay and lube are a must. Sadly, I don't see this toy being the most suitable for travel because he is rather large and care would have to be taken to keep him fully protected from anything that might injure his material.


Material / Texture
Adam's Pleasureskin cock is made with a realistic looking and feeling phthalates-free material called Pleasureskin. Pleasureskin mimics human skin in its velvety-soft touch that warms quickly to your body and feels incredibly real both inside or just in your hand. If you lightly run your finger across this Pleasureskin cock versus one made with Cyberskin, you might not realize they are different materials. However, when you pick up Adam's cock you will notice that he is much stiffer than his cyberskin counterparts. He retains a slightly squeezable shaft, but it won't bend (at all) while you are inserting or thrusting (yay!). For the bad news/good news... Adam's cock had a moderate rubber smell when I first took him out of the package. However, that smell did dissipate after a couple washes and now the only smell I can detect is that of the cornstarch I powder him with after washing.


Design / Shape / Size
Adam's cock is incredibly realistic from the slightly pink mushroom head to the Caucasian shaft, including slightly raised veins and hair follicle bumps on the balls. The veins do not seem to add much sensation during use, but do add that element of realism that makes your mouth water when you look at this guy. In size he is slightly above what I would consider average. The entire toy is 8 ½ inches long (with 6 ½ inches being insertable) and a diameter of 1 7/8 inches (approximately the size of a toilet paper tube). In addition, he weighs approximately 1 ½ lbs, further increasing the feel of realism. I did not find that the weight interfered with the suction cup, but it can be a bit cumbersome if used for thrusting using your hand.
One of Adam's Pleasureskin cock's best features is that it has a suction-cup for riding or sticking on the shower door, leaving you hands free for simultaneous clit stimulation. In order to achieve greater suction you may want to run a damp towel over the bottom of the suction cup to remove any powder left over from storage. The suction cup works best on smooth surfaces such as glass, non-textured shower doors/walls, finished wood, etc. I did not experience any problems with the suction cup while riding this toy, but I did find that when used on the shower wall it would come off if I was not perfectly aligned. I did not use this toy in a harness, but with the flared suction cup base, it should work well.


Care and Maintenance
Pleasureskin is great for both beginners and advanced users alike. However, it does require extra care. This is not the type of dong you will be just throwing in the drawer after using (not that I would recommend that with any toy!). This dong should only be used with water-based lube (do not use silicone lube or oil as it may cause the material to breakdown). Adam's cock is phthalate-free, but it is very porous, so using a condom is recommended to prevent infection from bacteria that may be introduced during use, and especially if will be shared or used anally. Cleaning should only be done using toy cleaner or antibacterial soap and warm water. Do not attempt to sterilize with bleach/alcohol or by boiling, it will ruin your toy. After washing, allow Adam's cock to dry thoroughly, and dust with re-newing powder or cornstarch to retain the velvety skin-like texture. Never use talc (such as baby powder) as it has been associated with certain cancers. Finally, you will need to place Adam's cock in a plastic bag or pouch (I like to add a bit of extra cornstarch right in the bag) and keep it away from other toys to avoid reactions with other materials.


Packaging
Adam's Pleasureskin cock came in a non-discreet plastic shrink wrap type package. Included was a cardboard background featuring cleaning instructions and a scantily clad woman holding the cock with an expression I can only describe as constipated. The only way to get the dong out is to cut the package which means you won't be using it for storage. And unfortunately, it does not come with a pouch, so be sure to add one with your order.


Experience
This realistic dong had me itching to get him immediately out of the package and played with ASAP. I noticed two things right away; one is the weighty heft that made him feel like a nice full cock, and second was the velvety skin-like texture of the material. If warmed a bit in warm water or with a heating pad it is near impossible to tell the difference between this material and skin. From the look and feel of this guy (along with a little water-based lube) I was quickly ready to mount my new lover. He was at the time the largest I owned, and with only a bit of relaxation I had taken him fully. I cannot imagine using him anally, although it would be possible. Awesomely, he felt as real inside me as he looked and felt in my hand. Feeling filled deeply and nicely stretched, I used a bullet vibe on my clit and the resulting orgasm was incredibly hard and fast.
I have had this toy for over a year now and the paint has now faded a bit to an opaque color, but he stills feels just as yummy as he ever did. Since that first time I have used him in several locations including the shower wall, bathtub (on the bottom and on the side), attached to a door and on a dresser drawer. The latter two are very nice because just by manipulating the door/drawer you can lay back and screw yourself. I rarely use this guy for laying in bed thrusting because he is a bit heavy. During the times I want to just lay back in bed and relax I place a pillow under my knees to hold the cock in place and can either use my legs (by bringing them and my pillow closer to my body) or wriggling my pelvis to create movement. He is all-around the most realistic and versatile dong that I own and I would purchase again if anything happened to him.

Deathly Hallows and Deadly O's

Okay, I have heard reports that Deathly Hallows is the best installment yet? I'm supposed to be going this week to see it. What do you think? Maybe its my perversion, but I always imagine what kind of amazing enchanted toys they could come up with.... no wonder they fly brooms everywhere!! Or the wands.... right?

So I'm sitting here trying to decide which new toy from the Lelo Insignia line I want to try first.


They all look so beautiful!! And Lelo's first adventure into the land of waterproof. I was not a big fan of Nea/Lily at all... they really lacked enough power for me. I have Ina and Siri, both are markedly more powerful.... but I truly can't decide. Which one would you like to see reviewed first? Or maybe something else all together?
Another new product I've had my eye on is the Cleo by a new company called ONO. Its silicone and waterproof, and many have compared it to The Cone. I do love my Cone, too. So leave me some suggestions.



I'm also looking to sponsor a Christmas contest.... what new toy(s) are you dying to get your hands on?
