This toy probably wouldn't stand up to heavy play, but don't let that deter you! This toy is capable of dishing out some pain, and if you're careful, it will serve its purpose beautifully. I personally found that the slaps required to leave an impression were rather hard and stung so good, but not everyone is into that. If you're not into receiving a stinging slut branding, you might want to look for a milder alternative. Like most slapping toys, it's a little noisy. I would love to give this five stars, but the flimsy workmanship had to be mentioned.

The paddle is small (under nine inches) and relatively concealable. It is made out of leather. It has a sturdy handle with two pieces of leather that slap together nicely to produce a satisfying clap. I noticed some threads left behind from the cut out letters on my or my partner's skin at first, but these weren't such a big deal. Sandwiched between them is a piece of red paper to emphasize the "SLUT" cut into the leather. Though I am fond of it, it is a rather flimsy toy. Take care not to be too rough with it, or you'll find yourself needing to replace it.

This toy lived up to my expectations and then some. It stung so good, left "SLUT" branded on either me or my partner, and produced that satisfying crack and slap. My only real complaint is the paper used to emphasize the cut out letters makes the toy seem a lot more flimsy than it really is. Other than that, I'll slap my troubles away any day with this.

The toy has a little, middle eyelet with a nylon cord for ease of hanging. If it gets a little scuffy, you can wipe the outside of it off with a damp cloth. The paper sandwiched between the two flaps might not take well to being dampened by mistake, but it isn't necessary for the performance of the toy. You might not be able to clearly make out SLUT on the paddle, but you'll definitely be able to read it in the raised welts on your partner's flesh. Isn't that what matters?
