-Packaging
When my partner and I first ordered the Fetish Fantasy Elite 8” Dildo I was excited. It seemed to have a very nice design and was visually quite appealing. When it arrived I was pleased to see the packaging. It was a simple cardboard box with a picture of the toy and some specifications on it, nothing seedy or pornographic. The box itself is a little luxurious; it has raised crocodile skin effect on the sides. Once opened the dildo was stored in a foam material bag (similar to something you would get a photo frame in to keep it from breaking). It also included a free silicone blindfold and two 29ml bottles (one lubricant and one toy cleaner). This put me in a great mood for opening the toy.

-Material/Care
Once out of the packaging my very first impression of the toy was that it had a really nice feel to it. It was a little slimmer than I imagined but this was not a problem. It measures in at a generous eight inches in total length with about seven and a half inches insertable. It has a circumference of about four and a half inches at its widest. It is textured, with numerous ridges and grooves running down the length of it. These are not extremely pronounced, so it would help with stimulation without being uncomfortable. It is made of silicone, which is one of the safest materials you can get for toys. It is non-porous, latex and phthalate free. As with all silicone toys, make sure to use a water based lubricant and not a silicone one, as you will destroy the finish otherwise. With regards to cleaning, there are a few ways to go about it: the box mentions that it is safe to wash in the dishwasher; alternatively you can wash it with warm soapy water or toy cleaner. With it being pure silicone, you can boil it to sterilise it completely.

-Use
As I mentioned it has a soft feel to it but as with many silicone toys it doesn’t have a natural smoothness to it, so lube is a must. It has a little flexibility to it which makes it good for insertion, as it can adjust a little to suit your body. It has several ridges running along it to increase g-spot stimulation, which is a bonus. The head is slightly curved as well. As I mentioned it is a little slimmer than you would typically see on an eight inch dildo, but my partner and I found it to be more than adequate. It comes with a flared suction cup base; this makes it compatible with most o-ring style harnesses. The suction cup on it is a little shallow, so it won’t stay terribly well in place. This is practically the only thing wrong with this toy, trying to make it o-ring compatible and have a suction cup doesn’t work terribly well, but other than this minor detail this is an amazing toy.

-Bonus Item
The blindfold that is included as a free item is really good especially for a bonus item. Often with cheaper blindfolds they don’t work well on me, because of the shape of my nose but this one works well. It is adjustable but at the maximum length is a little bit tight. The fact that is silicone makes it waterproof and easy to clean if need be. There is very little to find fault with, a great free item included with the main toy.

-Summary
I have to say I am very impressed with this toy. It is cheaper than similar silicone dildos from different ranges, but is every bit as good in my opinion. Aesthetically it is beautiful to behold, the curves and shapes of it look amazing. Silicone if one of the best sex toy materials available. Its harness compatibility is a serious plus. Measuring in at over seven and a half inches insertable, it is more than enough for both my partner and I. As I mentioned above, it is a little bit slimmer but we found it more than adequate, if you grave serious girth then it might not be for you. It has a little flexibility without being floppy at all. In summary I think this is one of the best items of its type and you won’t really do better for the price you pay.
