The Fetish Fantasy Elite 8" Dildo by Pipedream is made of 100% silicone. It can be used as either a strap-on with an O-ring harness or for solo or hands-free play. It has no odor or taste, and is easy to clean with either toy cleaner or soap and water. It can also be sterilized after use by boiling or cleaning with a bleach solution, which makes it great for those who share toys with partners. One thing to keep in mind is that, being made of silicone, this is a lint magnet; so you may want to store it inside a lint-free pouch to keep it from attracting lint and hair. As with all silicone products, silicone-based lubricant shouldn't be used; nor should you store them where they can come in contact with other silicone products.

The ribbed textured dildo measures in at about 8 1/2 inches with a 4 3/4 inch circumference. It has some flexibility to it, which was very nice and lent to a little more of a rougher ride without being too uncomfortable. The mixture of firmness and flexibility also allows it to be used as an impact toy, which was a nice discovery and would lend to it being a good dildo to use during BDSM play. Although this is not a dildo with a lot of girth, the ribbed texture adding to the sensations may also cause this one to have a little more drag, so be sure to have that lubrication on-hand when breaking this one out for playtime. I found that insertion was a little difficult at first, but once I added a little more lube there were little issues, although it was still difficult to take it all.

Speaking of the texture, the ribs are not too pronounced as to be bothersome or distracting, but I was still able to feel them. Like I said before, the ribs also seem to give this dildo a little extra drag; I can imagine this might cause it to be a little harder for anal use.

The suction cup base works very nicely, firmly keeping it place during play. This was a little bit of a surprise, as other dildos that I have used in the past were not as sturdy for hands-free play. The suction cup was used in a tiled bathtub, but while playing around I also found that it stuck well to a wall and hardwood floor.

The blindfold was easy to adjust, and I found it quite comfortable to wear. Like the dildo it also has no taste or odor.

The sample of lubricant is water-based and worked well with it. I did have to apply a little more than I usually would, but other than that I had no complaints with it.

Since my review, I have gotten used to the drag this has and actually started to like it. It gives me the friction that I crave. I have noticed that it's better to use a good quality lube with Fetish Fantasy Elite. I have now also gotten to use this in a harness and it worked wonderfully in combination. Since it is not floppy, strap-on play is hands free.
