For me it depends on the product. Lingerie I can use once or twice and then review it. If it's a toy I don't like I can use it once or twice and get the jist of it. I do like to play around with my product and get to know it first. Sometimes I can do an honest review the next day, sometimes it may take me a month.

I agree. It depends. Some products require a number of uses before reviewing while others do not.

Totally depends on the product. I have lubes I have used for months that I still struggle with what to say in a review for them, so I haven't written any yet for lube. But toys I'll use a few times to get the hang of them and find a way for them to work for me before I pen the review.

Some product need really thorough testing. The Pheromone mist I just reviewed had almost a month of trials before I finally wrote the review. As sexual attraction and arousal are erratic, I wanted to be as accurate as I could.

But, rarely do I review a product in less than two weeks. Once in a while, but not often.

Depends, DR reviews have to be done within 2weeks, so I can't hold off for forever on that. And lingerie reviews I wash them and wear them, so I can get them done faster too. Some toys, like the Jopen Intensity, take time to know if the product works. And some toys I can hold in my hands and know if I'll like it. Every review and item is different.

I voted one week but really after a couple days of use I feel that I can review most products.

I usually have something at least 2 weeks before reviewing, and generally longer. When I first started reviewing I tried to get them done as quickly as possible, but since then I've learned the value of not rushing a review. The more time I spend with an item, the better my review will be.

It does depend on the item though. Some require much more extensive testing than others.

It really depends on the item. For lingerie, I usually feel comfortable reviewing it after just one time wearing the item.

For toys, usually its a few days. That said, I've had some items laying around for months that I'm still not ready to review.

2ish weeks on the outside, a couple days sometimes. *shrug* It really depends on the product for me.

Two weeks or so gives you several times to test it out before writing a review.

It honestly depends. Sometimes I have all the information and experience I need after one week of use, but sometimes I need more because I am on the fence about the toy.

It depends on what it is. But I was told to wait at least two weeks after use.

A week or less depending on what it is and how much I get to/need to use it to really form an opinion. I can review a lube after one use but a nice toy may take a few runs.

It definitely depends on the product. Like SMichelle said, I usually feel like I can review lingerie after wearing it once--although if it's lingerie that's supposed to be more functional than sexy, I wait until I've had a chance to sleep in it, wear it out to a club, etc to see how it holds up.

Toys, on the other hand, I use at least twice to make sure it wasn't a fluke. For beauty products, I wait a few weeks to see if I'm getting the desired effects.

I aim to try a toy 3 times before reviewing it. There have been times, though, when I just hate a toy so much that I can't bring myself to try it again, so I write the review right away.

It really depends on the item, lingerie I can tell after one or two uses as for a toy for pleasure I can tell right away if I like it or not. For other aspects of how long the toy lasts,how the batteries do and what not I have to test it a few times.

I am with everyone on it depends on the items, most toys it takes me about 2 weeks only because I am using it a number of times and writing about it (or taking quick notes) before/during/after play.

Items like books, depends on how long it takes me to read. Though lingerie seems to take the shortest amount of time for me because I can really figure it out after one or two uses.

Depends, I like to use the item at least twice to give it a good review. Some times though if it is really bad I'll do it after the first time.

It is never the same, it depends on my schedual. Mainly I review lingerie and I know if I like it right away. Waiting is what follow up reviews are for.

I think my wife generally waits about a week or two and tries to use it almost daily.

I basically write my reviews once I tried the product out, which can be within a couple days or two weeks. I like to use the product so I know what to tell others about it and have the best info.

I like to use a toy for about two weeks or use it at least 3 times if that takes longer. That way you can see different ways to use things. You can also get a good feel for how it will hold up.
