No matter how you use the Fetish Fantasy Elite 9 dildo - you've got to be an advanced toy user with a taste for stretching your limits - dare I say - Size Queen (or King).

There is some taper to this shaft but absolutely no give - the silicone is near ROCK HARD. My intended use was for anal especially for pegging. Although I can't take 9" anally, I assumed that the length would make it easier for my wife if she didn't have be quite as close. Secondarily - I like the idea of pushing limits and felt the taper to 2" would help me do that.

Since we share our toys - after proper cleaning we also use the toy for my wife vaginally. The 1-3/8" tip eases entry and the gradual taper to 2" works nicely. The shaft is textured but neither of us could feel the textures in use. 9" is also too much length for my wife - but when fully aroused she can take 7.5"-8". This gives her good a-spot stimulation at the top of her vagina and pressure at the opening with the stretch of the 2" apex.

The shaft ends in an obvious suction cup. The cup serves two purposes and does both of them well. The cup sticks well to any smooth surface and can easily be deformed to allow for easy installation into your favorite harness - even if you don't have a 2" O-ring capability.

As a bonus the box includes a silicone blindfold and samples of a water-based lube and toy cleaner. Nice touches for Pipedream to include.

Bottom line the Fetish 9 is a dildo that is made from body safe premium HARD silicone, has a mostly smooth texture, tapers to 2" and is suitable for solo and couples play either vaginally or anally.

This 9" monster dildo is made by Pipedream. Although I expect great quality from Tantus, Vixen, Lelo and others', they command quite a high price. Pipedream is more of a value driven company. This is a great service to the community because it creates the opportunity to obtain high quality products at reasonable costs.

There is no doubt that this toy is made from premium silicone. There is no odor and it has the feel and heft that you expect from silicone. Ah but we're spoiled. When we transitioned from the 1st generation of Tantus silicone like Champlette and Echo - to the softer O2 and Vixskin formulations, we were 'ruined'. Not only could we have safe - but we could have comfort as well!

This dildo is by far the hardest silicone we've ever seen. Not saying that's a bad thing - just know before you buy. Although my wife was OK with this vaginally - I found it just too hard for anal play.

I guess because it's long and round you can consider it phallic - but it's not realistic, it has no attributes of a penis. The textures are stylized and make an attractive presentation. There are obvious mold seems that have been ground or cut smooth. Although you may consider this a visual flaw - the workmanship is such that with your eyes closed you cannot feel it.

The silicone blindfold is smooth and cut to a shape that is effective at blocking out light - more than the fabric versions that we now have. For this time of the year it works great - in the summer though, perspiration could be an issue.

As the description suggests this is a "Fantasy" design - that is phallic but not realistic. Give them 100% for staying true to the concept. The dildo is has a full 9" available - if you can take a dildo that long.

The initial size is 1-3/8" and has a slight curve, presumably for g-spot stimulation. However since I know of no woman with a g-spot 9" inside, I'm not sure how useful this is.

At about 2" down the shaft the curve ends at 1.5" diameter and begins it's taper to it's 2" diameter apex which occurs at about 7" down the shaft. The shaft then tapers back to 1.5" just before the suction cup.

There is a narrow constriction to 1-1/4" before the suction cup - which is 2-5/8" in diameter. The advantage of this constriction is that it gives the shaft some ability to flex during use without being overly rigid or losing it's seal. On the negative side this crevice can be difficult to cleaned and I fear that with extended use would be a point for premature failure.

The blindfold is thin smooth silicone that conforms nicely to the face. The straps converge at the back to a plastic piece that you can use to make the blindfold tighter - but not loosen.

Although of very high quality materials and well made, this is not one of our top performers. For my wife the 1-3/8 head doesn't do as good of a job at stimulating her deep a-spot as she would like. The broader softer heads of more realistic toys like O2 Revolution, Vixskin Johnny, Maverick and Outlaw all do a better job. It's not a bust though - she finds the gradual taper of this toy a nice way to get her ready for something really big like the Vixskin Outlaw.

For me - or should I say for her to peg me with, the jury is still out. It goes in easy enough, but the curve is not welcome as it goes deeper - and I'm not a fan of how hard the silicone is. We're going to try it a few more times - but there are other better options.

The suction cup is flexible enough to make it easy to mount to our RodeoH harness - and I'm sure it would work well for any metal o-ring style harness as well.

As for using the suction cup solo - my wife doesn't do that - so I took one for the team and used it for solo anal play. The suction cup worked great - I just couldn't find a position where I didn't feel like I was being gored by the curve at the tip.

The blindfold did a great job of blocking light and creating an effective sensory deprivation experience. We had no issues with the silicone getting caught in or pulling hair. It's something we are going to explore more of.

As most of you know by now - avoid silicone lubes with silicone toys. We have used both water-based and oil-based lubes successfully - but maximum life is best assured with a high quality water-based product.

Cleaning with hot soap and water is quite easy. Since the crevice at the bottom never enters the body, we haven't found cleaning this area an issue. For those aficionados of toy cleaners, bleach, alcohol - even dishwashers - all are quite OK for this premium quality silicone.

The blindfold is quite thin - but not too thin. All the same, I would think cleaning with mild soap and water should be sufficient.

Packaging is not a big concern for me - but those who want to know.

The dildo and accessories come in a solid (no cut-outs) cardboard box 3" x 4" x 10.5" with an interior plastic cage that protects the product from damage. The box is nicely decorated - but there is no doubt about what the contents are.

You could certainly store the toy in this box - but we do not, it takes up too much space.

This is usually my favorite section of the review - where I can share many of the great experiences we've had with a toy. But alas - there isn't much more to add. We'll keep the toy and continue to experiment. Maybe we'll have something interesting to convey in the follow up review.
