This toy is great for opening your vagina, especially if you are used to larger penises. The manipulation is not great as it is meant for sticking to a surface and riding. If you can find a surface, it works just fine. I would take care not to go too deep with it if you are not used to that, it could hurt. It can be used by anyone who requires that size. I end up using this toy as a staple in my sex shows and it's just great for me. It is just what I need to wake myself up. I would give caution if you are not used to this size. Also, it gets a little bit heavy because of the size. If you are using other toys at the same time, be very careful. It is relatively smooth, so I am not seriously concerned about bruising anything. I have seen softer dildos, but this one is relatively good. I was reminded of kegels. This is a great toy to practice kegels with for me. If you can grip this toy you can do wonders. That means those muscles are strong. That is what you need for great orgasms. I happen to be in great control of all my muscles. This toy helps because it gives me a challenge while I am trying to orgasm, something to focus on. It doesn't actually make me orgasm, but it helps to have more than one thing going at a time. Also, I would not use this toy for anal until you are ready. Make sure you are cleaned up or that could get messy (mostly because of the texture). I have not tried it for anal, because I am trying to slowly get to a larger size. Lastly, it just looks great while you are playing with it which helps you in the visual department.

Oh yeah... I'm not sure if the suction part makes it usable in a strap-on fashion. It seems to me that it does, in the right strap-on harness, which is a definite plus!

It is a realistic toy and as looks go, it does look quite realistic. I have seen more detailed finishing. I don't know if it just me, but I do not have a whole lot of sensation inside my vagina. So when asked does it feel realistic, I know I cannot feel a whole lot anyway.

Touch wise...it is closer to a real penis than a lot of other toys, I would give it medium marks for all these things, or a bit higher than average. As I said before, because of the size maybe, there is a drawback with concern to the weight of the toy. That is quite a bit of latex...

Taste... uh, there is no taste, unless you add a taste, which works just fine for me.

This toy is firm, yet flexible. I'm pretty sure it is meant to be firm. It is hard to hurt yourself with this when used properly, which is great. I think this is a mid-experience level toy. It is not for the novice.

Design- The design is perfect... It is supposed to be the closest thing to a penis. I think it achieves that goal. Plus the suction, gives you more options, kinda makes it hands free... As I said before, I believe you can use it in a harness. I don't think u can ask for much more...

It worked just fine for me... As I said before. I believe it is for a user with a mid-level experience. So the weight might even be a plus... I happen to like larger toys... Of course we would all like the genuine article but this is so much safer...

This toy, is above average in the realistic department, I believe...

I am a little less inhibited so I would have no problem traveling with this toy. But for some more conscientious users... the size may be a problem... It can't be mistaken in an airport scanner

This is a dildo, it's not hollow and because it is not a small dildo (8 - 8.5in), for my purposes it does get kind of weighty. Also, it takes some ingenuity to make it look aesthetically pleasing to the audience. Although, the suction base gives you some leverage. It gives you the solid base so that it stays upright more readily than other dildos.

Because you are using this toy in an area that is prone to infections and general irritation, and I can be a bit of a germaphobe (we know germs can live a long time sometimes without liquids), I suggest that an airtight container is best. It may not be the manufacturers suggestion but I would go all out with cleaning before you store it and leave it to grow unwelcome microbials. I can deal with rather harsh cleaning agents, but you may want to look into detergents for sensitive skin. Also, you might look into detergents that do not break down the latex, probably the cleaners found here.

While the packaging served its purpose, as in there was no confusion or misgiving about your purchase, I do not feel that was much thought given to upkeep of this toy. The clear plastic case is adequate for restoring this specific toy. The description and specifics about the toy were printed on the cardboard insert. But then again, it is not a complicated toy to use. If you are into larger toys this should suit the bill just fine. I think it is a staple of any toy collection, not for the novice but for the intermediate and professional.

As I stated before, I have used this toy and it is a staple of my collection. It is actually a size upgrade from a vibrator with a corded remote. Texturally speaking it is more comfortable than most other toys I have used. Unfortunately, given the size and my lack of affinity for dildos in general, I do not know or desire to know if I can utilize the full length of the toy. I am happy with the realism (I have seen better), and I am content with the functionality. I believe that the more creative I can get with this toy, the more options I am bound to find. So again, I recommend it for your general use, it is great !
