This purchase was the result of a menagerie of Valentine's Day themed goodie bag. Little did I know I would end up with a broken heart, or at least my crop would. The only impression that was left from this toy wasn't a good one.

Packaging
The Impression Heart crop comes prominently displayed on a simple piece of cardboard with the company's logo and design printed on it. The crop is attached by plastic ties that hold it in place and they are very simple to loosen.

{bold|Material]
For the vegan lovers out there, you'll be pleased to know that this crop is made up of "faux" leather. The material is smooth to the touch, yet very flimsy. There were times during play where I feared I would snap it in half. I could simply be heavy handed, which, by the way if you are, then this is not the toy for you.

The base of the crop has a handle which can be used for hanging on hooks and hooks alone. I would not use the handle for "handling" purposes because the crop slid out of the base several times. It is not sewn into place and had I not been fully aware of what was happening, it could have flown out across the room

Impact
This is a light impact toy. It's possible that you could inflict a few good whelps, but overall, this is for newbies who would like to test the waters of their pain threshold. If you're looking for heavier impact, please look elsewhere.

Durability
The material of which the crop is made of is probably the only thing that's durable. The fact that the base slides off is a major flaw and turn off.

Cleanup and Storage
Usa a damp cloth with sanitizer to wipe your crop off. Or use spray toy sanitizer (a few are available on this site). This is especially important if you plan to share your toys with others.

The handle on the crop makes it easy for it to hang up on your closet door. Also, it's slim enough and short enough to fit in your dresser drawer.

What I used it on:
-Buttocks
-Thighs
-Calves

How I used it:
Light to medium to heavy and very heavy lashes. The heavier pelts still did not live up to my expectations. Combined with the toy falling apart every 3 minutes, this left me highly disappointed.

I would not purchase this toy again. Instead I'd spend an extra 7-10 dollars and get a better quality crop. The moral of this story is: you get what you pay for.
