Starting off, after a good amount of experience with Brad, I can gladly say that he is perfect for any person of any gender or identity and works very well for g-spot and p-spot stimulation. Brad is perfect; he comes equipped with a suction cup that is ideal for hands-free use or use with a harness. The suction cup is made of the same body-safe silicone that the rest of the dildo is made up of, so you'll find that it gets a solid grip on most surfaces, especially shower walls. I think this toy is excellent for any sort of sexual encounter, be it by yourself or with a partner. He's firm while also being soft enough for comfort, which I find to be very pleasurable.

First thing out of the packaging, I noticed a very slight silicone odor coming from the toy, but after a little time out of the package and in the open, I found that the smell quickly disappeared. There is virtually no taste once the smell has taken care of itself. This toy is a very wonderful firm-yet-soft body-safe silicone, which is a preference of mine when it comes to toys. Brad feels rather realistic without being TPR or Loveclone RX, which is a huge bonus. The realistic shape, size and texture all add to make an extremely exciting and pleasurable experience. I think that if this were a simple shaft without the unique veins and widening in the shaft, it would lack character and overall make the experience much less enjoyable and pleasurable.

The shape of Brad was daunting at first, as I hadn't had much experience with a dildo that realistically widened mid-shaft. The rest of the size seemed comfortable enough, but it did very honestly take me a little while to come around to experiencing Brad to the fullest because of this. It's hard to tell just what kind of widening there is in the photo on the website, so while it was a little unexpected, I've found that it's an incredible bonus. The realistic shape only amplifies the pleasure that you receive from him. The head is small and slips in easily, which is my favorite aspect of the shaping and design. It was extremely easy to adjust to the size and shape once it was inside for both myself and my partner. I don't typically use very large toys, I consider myself more of a beginner when it comes to thickness and girth, so I think that this would be a good toy for anyone that is just starting out with toys/insertion, and experts alike.

Brad's overall performance is extremely satisfactory for me. It's bendable in the perfect places, has enough give to hit the perfect spots while also being firm enough to be used with any sort of play that you would like. The only thing that could possibly make Brad better would be larger balls. This may sound funny, but I quite enjoy massaging my c-spot with the balls when I ride dildoes, and I know my partner enjoys it as well, and the balls are rather small on him. Otherwise, the shape, texture, material, and everything else that comes along with brad is IDEAL. He fits comfortably inside of you while you do whatever floats your boat.
The suction cup on Brad is phenomenal! It fits perfectly into any O-rings that we have for harnesses and holds up valiantly against the proper surfaces such as finished wood and bathroom tile walls.

To take care of Brad, you have a few options. He's made of completely body-safe silicone, so you'll have the option to boil him if need be, or put him in the top rack of your dishwasher. You can also clean him using warm water and soap or toy cleaner. There's no need to use any sort of condoms with Brad. You should stick to water-based lubes with Brad to avoid degrading the toy's overall composition. I'd suggest getting your own pouch or container to keep Brad in if you have other silicone toys, just to avoid degradation.

The boxing was discrete as always (thank you Eden Fantasys!), however, the packaging for Brad itself would not be suitable as a storage or gift box, much less could it be considered discrete. I received Brad sealed in clear plastic that was essentially destroyed the moment the box was opened.

Brad is perfect for anyone and all-- Don't let his realistic shape and texturing deter you! I am not one for hyper-realistic toys, especially when there's a widening in the shaft like with Brad, but I took a chance on his excellent price point and brought him home anyway. I've never been so relieved I took a chance before. My partner and I both love Brad, either alone or together, and we've both very quickly learned to love his unique and realistic shape.

My personal experiences with this toy alone have been very exciting, and I've found it to be so comfortable and easy to use that it's my go-to for alone time now (which is saying a lot; I have quite the collection!). I've enjoyed using it on my partner in tandem with a massager or my favorite Eden Fantasys wand, which you can find in my other reviews. That released an orgasm unlike any other!
