This toy, in my opinion, is wonderful for couples just entering into the world of sensory play. The feather actually tickles a decent amount as does dragging the flogger section along skin. The flogger itself doesn't appear to be intimidating for those who have never used one before. It does have the potential to pack a sting, but you would have to try quite hard for it to genuinely hurt. It is a fairly mild toy that deals out much more pleasure than pain.

This toy is a fairly small toy overall. The grip can be a little awkward when the toy is being used as a flogger, but it works very well for the tickling aspect. The one I have (in pink) is very attractive to look at. It is a very cute toy.

The toy definitely functions as intended if you are looking for a teasing toy for sensory play. If you are looking for a sharp sting or something particularly painful, this is not the toy for you. Both ends of the toy work exceptionally well for tickling. It is a fantastically fun addition to a toy collection.

This tickler is relatively easy to care for. I would recommend avoiding the mixing of the feather part with oils, lubes, etc.

In terms of storage, keeping it flat is key, and it would be wise to not kink up the flogger though I have never had a problem with any tangles.

There were a few role-play suggestions on the back of the package which I have never followed but are pretty good as suggestions for beginners.

The packaging wasn't particularly sturdy, but it gets the toy to you in good shape. The package is not reusable though, so you will need to find another place to store it.
