Straight up, I don't buy ugly toys. My favorite toys are Lelo's and Form 6

Yes it's important! I always buy toys I find attractive because I know I can't wait to play with those. An ugly or cheap looking toy isn't going to excite me that way so there's no point in spending my money on it.

The look of the really affects my decision on whether or not I get it.

we wouldn't want to own a toy we thought was ugly.

I will only buy a toy if I like the looks and the functions.
(I'am very fussy)

I mean there has to be something there that is attracting me to the toy. Normally is how its shaped and what not being pretty adds to it I guess

They certainly can't be ugly! I'm getting pretty personal with that thing, it better be attractive!

My wife is apparently unconcerned about the appearance of a toy. She adores her Eroscillator 2 deluxe with the grapes attachment. Appearance-wise, it looks like a big electric tooth brush.

I can like the way a toy looks, but I look at measurements and read reviews before I buy it.

Looks are super important but functionality is always #1.

I'd rather have an ugly toy that gets me off than a beautiful one that sucks. I put a lot of stock in reviews, so if I want a toy I care more about what people say than what it looks like.

I might like a toy more if I think it's pretty so I guess it will influence my purchase but I wouldn't buy a toy that I didn't think would work for me. On the other hand, if a toy is getting rave reviews but is butt-ugly, I would definitely buy that toy.

a nice colour on a toy will definitely catch my eye.

I prefer toys that are pretty powerful.

I want a toy to be pretty (I mean function too), but I am weird like that.

I care about what the toy looks like but how it performs is the most important thing. I find about the performance from all of the GREAT REVIEWS here on Eden!!

I try to get the best of both worlds -- a toy that's attractive, but powerful and well designed. I have definitely bought toys that don't count as attractive, though, based solely on power...

I prioritize functionality over aesthetics when it comes to most toys. That being said, I still take aesthetics into account when making a purchase (I'm not indifferent to how a toy looks); I just weight the functionality a little more than the toy's looks. There are also some toys where appearance and functionality are one and the same, particularly when it comes to bondage and fetish gear. If the purpose of the toy is to intimidate, there's little sense in trying to separate how it looks from how it performs; the two are often one and the same thing.

I'm not hard to please when it comes to aesthetics, but if I think a toy is ugly I won't be very inclined to buy it, even if it's supposed to be amazing... and vice versa

I' more interested in it working, then how pretty it is.

I'm more attracted to their power than anything else!

I wouldn't say it's mainly based on the look but if it's a turn off I won't buy it no matter what functions it has or how good it vibrates. Also I really don't want to buy anything pink or some other highlighter orange/yellow color.

I care somewhat about a toy's appearence, but don't base my purchace on it.

I'm attracted to some, but a lot of times I have to stop myself from getting too excited. Otherwise I'll have a cute toy that doesn't work for me. Ugh, I hate it when that happens!

Pretty toys do tend to catch my eye. While reviews and safety are the two biggest factors I consider when purchasing, I don't bother buying ugly toys. They say that the brain is the biggest sex organ, right? IMO toys are better when they intrigue me, that just looking at them excites me and I cant wait to use them. Anticipation is part of the fun.

i only buy glass many "pros", one of which for me is the appearance.

i do receive other toys as gifts though

I care about the appearance and color, but I have to read reviews to see if they're worth getting.

Looks are a factor, not the main factor. I do not want something that looks exactly like a penis. Also, pink is a turn off.
