My favorite way to get a hard-on!

The Annie-O is an excellent option for anyone looking to explore pegging or gender play. The issues with it are minor compared with the quality of material and durability of the design. I'd definitely recommend the Annie-O over non-leather strap-ons, but it seems to be equivalent in quality to other leather harnesses, so really, it's the cute design and double dildo feature that puts this above the others.

Use

The Annie-O would be best for girls. It is good with double-ended toys like the Feeldoe, if you're not strong enough to support it but still want that penetration for yourself and your significant other. It allows a second dildo to be used on the wearer but only for the pussy — unless you're designed strangely. In which case, have fun!

I'm not saying a guy couldn't use this, but that nice second dildo feature would be a bit wasted. Additionally, the double straps really help keep it in place on my ever so large ass, which most guys do not have, this kind of shape and probably wouldn't benefit as much.

Material

The Annie-O is a well-constructed leather harness with cute metal and suede accents. It seems to never lose that lovely leather smell. Other than its hair consuming tendency, it is very comfortable as the leather is soft enough to feel good on my skin and hard enough to feel like it can stand up to the wear and tear of use.

Design / Craftsmanship

I think that the Annie-O is remarkably well made. When you go to local adult toyshops, you often see the cheap cloth or rubber harnesses. I was never able to bring myself to get one of those because they seemed small, poorly made and uncomfortable. I was scared that if they were durable enough they'd be uncomfortable. I have no such worries with the Annie-O. I can adjust the straps as I gain and lose weight, I've seen no signs of wear after over a year of regular use, and the one time I lost the o ring, I was able to replace it (causing me to find the original one a day later) with an equally strong steel one from the hardware store.

The O-ring is one size only, which limits what toys you can use with it. This is a little disappointing since there are toys with knots and ridges that are unable to be used because I can't get a bigger O-ring with the Annie O. As I said before though, the double dildo feature does allow compatibility that you don't see in most other harnesses.

My biggest concern with the Annie-O is the snaps that hold the inner flap and the O-ring in place. They seem to come undone often during use. So far it hasn't caused any big problems, but I imagine that on the right body type, the dildo might be able to slip out. I can't see any way of fixing this issue, but I will deal with that part if it makes the harness unusable.

Size / Fit

Since the Annie-O is adjustable on every strap, it should fit almost anybody. The straps are extremely long and I imagine the number of people it wouldn't fit is relatively small.

I had briefly considered wearing it with my packer under my clothes, but the numerous straps and thick leather make it too impractical unfortunately.
    • Adjustable
    • Fits comfortably
    • Will fit most body sizes and types

Performance

The Annie-O is a great harness to experiment in. It is very secure, with the exception of those snaps, though they have yet to ruin a good time, so I feel comfortable trying new things and am able to concentrate on what I'm doing rather than what I'm wearing.

Getting into and out of can be a bit complicated because you need to undo at least one strap, which means readjusting it every time you put it on. However, this is at worst an extra 30 seconds of preparation.

As I said before, the snaps aren't always good at staying closed, so while putting a toy into place isn't so bad, keeping it there may be a problem as the snaps come undone. I haven't had to stop everything just to fix it, but I'd listen for that little *pop* when they come undone so you can pay closer attention to how lose the toy feels during use.
    • Comfortable during use
    • Easy to put on

Care and Maintenance

Keeping the Annie-O clean is a bit of a challenge because of the way the toy is snapped in place. In order to remove the toy, you must take the harness off entirely, and pull the dildo out through the O-ring and the leather opening, which means any kind of fluids on the dildo can get onto the harness. Using a condom can help, but in the end, make sure you wash it carefully (lots of water is bad for leather) and sanitize it with leather safe products.
    • Hard to clean

Experience

My biggest recommendation is to keep a pair of underwear on with it if you have any sort of hair down there. The straps between your legs will do their best to pluck you bald otherwise.

The best fun I've had with it is combining it with an egg that has a cord so that it doesn't go far if it falls out of place. The straps really help make sure the vibrations are up close and personal, and for me, provide a matching stimulation to the thrusting motion. Just because my penis is silicone doesn't mean I don't feel anything!

    Excellent! A very thorough review.

    Very nice review! I can definitely see how removing the toy would be messy but I'd imagine it could be messy for most harnesses? Do you think using leather cleaning wipes would be okay for sanitizing? I think I'd be sketchy about that with it being close to genitals but as long as it's left to dry I don't imagine it would be too terribly different than using them on a leather sofa and having sex on that... but I have no experience in that department sooo ;0
