Ella is a double-ended dildo best suited for vaginal use. It is particularly good for g-spot stimulation. I wouldn't recommend using it anally because it is fairly short and doesn't feature a flared base. Other reviewers have mentioned that the dildo gets caught on their pubic bone and/or bruises their cervix, but I haven't noticed either of these problems.

Ella is made of silicone, so it has no odor or taste. The texture is matte and velvet-like. While others have mentioned that such a texture requires less lubricant, I find that I need more than I do with shinier textures. It has "Lelo" engraved on one side of the pointed end.

The dildo is very firm - the only part that bends is the curve before the flat-ended side.

The flat-ended side provides fairly good g-spot stimulation, it doesn't allow me to put as much pressure on my g-spot as I would like. I also find that the dildo is somewhat difficult to use. Though the dildo is 7" long (5" insertable), my vagina seems to swallow it up and I'm not left with much of a handle to hold onto. Thrusting is still possible, but it doesn't come as easily as it does with most other dildos I've tried. The girth (or lack of) is what keeps me from really enjoying the toy. I like feeling "full" and Ella simply cannot provide me with that. The pointed end does absolutely nothing for me and I feel the toy would be better if it was longer and included a flared base. The small dimensions and shape of this toy would probably make it great for p-spot stimulation, but the lack of base makes it unsafe to use in this way.

I might have appreciated this toy more if I acquired it when I first started my sex toy journey, but since that wasn't case all I have in my mind when I use this toy is "meh, I've had better". It's just boring to me.

While Ella fulfilled its function as a g-spot dildo, its small size and plainness mean that it is one of the most frequently overlooked toys in my collection.

Since this toy is 100% silicone and contains no electronic parts, you may:
Boil it for a couple of minutes
Wash it with soap and water
Soak or spray it with a bleach solution
Put it in your dishwasher

While some sources say that some higher quality silicone-based lube is safe for use with silicone toys, if you want to be safe you're better off sticking to water-based. It generally recommended that you keep silicone toys from touching while storing them.

The engravement on the side of the dildo sometimes collects gunk, so you may want to use a toothbrush or a toothpick to clean that area of the dildo.

The dildo comes in a black box with a coloured cover (will be the same colour as you picked for the toy). It is great for storage of the toy or repurposing as a container for bits and pieces. It would make an excellent gift box as it looks very classy. The box includes a satin storage bag as well as warranty information and a user manual.

If you like the shape but would prefer a vibrator, try Gigi.
