Product Review: Sex in the Shower Single Locking Foot Rest by Sportsheets

July 23rd, 2010 4 comments

Ooo, what’s that?

I had high hopes for the Sex in the Shower Single Locking Footrest by Sportsheets.  Probably too high.

What’d it come in?

That white and blue cardboard box to the right.  Not at all discreet.  But probably a toy called “Sex in the Shower” can’t be packaged discreetly anyway.

How’s it made?

This foot rest is made of white plastic and rubber.  It’s meant to suction cup to your wall by way of a lever beneath the part you rest your foot on.  Pull the lever up until it locks into place while holding the heavy duty rubber suction cup against a flat surface, and it should hold in place while you’re doing just about anything.  We’ll get to that “should” below.  Read more…

Ooo, what’s that?

That would be the Lia Magic Wand.  I can already see you size queens looking at her and rolling your eyes.  Wait till you hear what I have to say before dismissing her completely!

What’d it come in?

The Lia came in a molded plastic sleeve inside of a clear plastic box decorated with flowers and a description of the toy.

How’s it made?

Lia is nine inches (six and a quarter insertable) of pink, purple or white silicone (mine’s pink), with a diameter of an inch and a quarter.  It’s phthalates and latex free.  Bumpy and soft and firm.  And the tip curves ever so nicely to hug your g-spot.  Read more…

Product Review: Rabbit Habit by Vibratex

July 23rd, 2010 Comments off

Ooo, what’s that?

Oprah Magazine calls the Rabbit Habit by Vibratex “The Rolls Royce of Sex Toys”, and I call whoever said that a “Sex Toy n00b”.  Keep reading to see why.

What’d it come in?

Rabbit Habit comes in a clear plastic box with copper flower outlines.  Tucked in the bottom is a red cardboard insert that sports all the Rabbit Habit’s claims to fame, and directions on the inside of the toy.

How’s it made?

This dual stimulator is made of jelly-like purple vinyl, with an off-white plastic handle/battery compartment.  It’s nine and a half inches, all told, with about five insertable inches.  It’s got a diameter of just under an inch and a half at its widest point, and it’s squishy enough that I think it would be comfortable for just about any user.  Even those who usually enjoy thinner vibes.  Read more…
