We were very excited to purchase this feather to add to our 'inventory.' We wanted a tickler that would heighten sexual response, especially while blindfolded. It seemed like a great idea to add this toy, as there's no noise issue with it, and we could use it very discreetly. When we received it, the feathers were much more lanky than in the image. It was almost stringy rather than plushy and soft. It wasn't attractive to look at, and I almost felt silly wanting to use it on my partner. We used it all over our bodies with and without a blindfold, and found that it worked okay, but wasn't what we were expecting. We were hoping that it would feel smoother on our skin, but it had a little bit of a roughness to it, and the odd lengths of the feathers made it less of a surprise when caressed against skin. That made it a disappointment, as there really isn't another good use for this toy.


Combined with a blindfold, the experience was better than without, because it added to the sense of not knowing where the feather was going, but the unevenness of the feather made the experience less exciting than we had hoped. The length of the base was pretty long, and made it difficult to use when near your partner. We ended up taking off the stopper, cutting the base to an easier length, and putting the stopper back on. It was much easier to use after making the end shorter.


You have to be especially careful with oils and lubes because it will gunk up in the feathers. There isn't really a good way of cleaning this feather tickler, so make sure that you keep it in a place where it won't be exposed to dust and dirt.

Would have preferred it to be softer, have more even feathers, and have a shorter handle.

I still don't care for this feather! It's been pushed to the bottom of the box and I'll be getting something else for similar play.
