"Shipping and Handling"
Just like every other product I've ever ordered from Eden Fantasy's, this arrived in a simple, nondescript postal cardboard box. Inside was some crumpled up paper to protect the box within, which contained the Colt Anal Douche. It is not even remotely stealthy. There are pictures of the product inside, the name, etc. It's a thin boxboard that I tossed after reading the description and instructions. The instructions are pretty basic, but I don't feel it needed much more. More comprehensive care and cleaning info would have been nice. Within the container were two plastic wrapped items. The bulb with attached shaft was in one bag and the ribbed attachment was in another.

It smells fairly prominently of rubber/artificial something. I found it relatively easy to ignore, since I wasn't putting it anywhere near my face. Washing my hands after using the Colt with soap/water pretty much got rid of the odor on my skin (which I would recommend anyway given the nature of the item). The bulb is latex, so if you have a latex allergy, obviously this might not work very well for you. The insertable portion is a hard plastic of some sort and the ribbed/bulb-y attachment is composed of the same material. To clean it I've been using plain old soap and hot water. After rinsing, store it somewhere with the tip side down, preferably where air will circulate so it can dry thoroughly. Like pretty much all my toys, I stow this in a clean old sock, then pop it in a drawer of my bedside table designated for items of this sort.

"Act Now!"
I've only used the Colt Anal Douche when I've already "emptied" myself; so that I can rest assured I'm truly clean. I figured I would save myself some extra work, when it's easy to handle some of the cleaning process on my own. I get a glass/bowl of some sort (that way it's easy to clean afterwards) and fill it with warm-to-hot water so I don't have to fiddle about awkwardly to fill the bulb. The squeezable bulb is fairly firm/resists a bit, so I tend to have to use both hands to fully compress it. That makes it a lot more awkward to use this than it might be. To get around that, after it has been filled with water I tend to just squish it as much as I'm able to with one hand. It's not too big of a deal, because I'm able to almost completely empty it one-handed. I'm hoping that with further use it will "break in" some and be easier to squeeze.

All in all I'm very satisfied with this. It's much more user friendly than the other item I've tried using for enemas. Very little mess with not much fuss. I'm likely only going to use it with the ribbed attachment because I didn't find the diameter to be uncomfortable. I much prefer the rounded tip it has to the tip of the normal shaft attached to the bulb. I found the original tip to be just a bit sharp feeling when trying to insert it. If it weren't for the mild difficulty with squeezing it and the sharp/abrupt end on it, I would have given it 5 stars. Since it does have two small (to me) flaws, 4/5.
