Cons
May not be strong enough for some users, lint and dust magnet. Expensive for it's size.
Hustler's Lil Helper is perfect for stimulating the clitoris and labia during foreplay, in solo play or with your partner. Perfect for couples to stimulate each other during sex and teasing afterwards. The lil helper's flared head also benefits women with shallow vaginal walls providing stimulation to their g-spot directly.
The Hustler brand never cheaps on material and this toy is no exception. It's made of medical grade silicone and states that it's been imported from Japan. It is also phthalate free making it completely body safe. The lil helper has no odor and is smooth to the touch. It does have a slight seam in the middle and also the hustler logo with is indented but neither are raised high and cannot be felt during use. The handle is smooth with velvet coating and is easy to grasp even during play. The lil helper's shaft is stiff and has no bend whatsoever so it's able to take alot of use.
This line of hustler toys has different levels and the lil helper is stated as a beginner toy so it's great for light to mild stimulation. It's obvious in it's user friendly design with a large bulb made for clitorial and surrounding area stimulation. The overall length of the toy is slighty under 5" with the inserting shaft at 3" long. It's shallow length benefits beginners or those who enjoy smaller toys. This toy does have some girth to it though so while it's short in length it can still be felt especially towards the head, So it's great for penetration as well. I suppose it could be use for teasing around the anal area but I do not recommend for anal penetration as it does not have a flared base.
The control button is located on the base of the cap with also houses the battery compartment. The toy takes two AAA batteries and the base twists easily to open. The power button controls stimulation levels and powering the toy, but it isn't the easiest to manoeuver so that's a bummer. It gets somewhat stuck but this could just be a issue with my toy. It's not a dealbreaker but gets annoying especially during use. To turn the toy off/on you hold the button down for a few seconds and to cycle thru the five different speeds and functions you simply press the button once. You don't have to cycle thru the patterns to turn the toy off so that's a plus for me. This toy has one steady strong vibe and the rest are patterns.
1. Strongest straight vibe with no pulsing.
2. Low pulse.
3. Throbbing pulse.
4. Fast,low pulse.
5. Fast,high pulse.
You should always wash your toys upon first use and also after every use for sanitary reasons. Hot water and a mild soap or toy cleaner is best for everyday use but you may also boil this toy just be sure to remove the batteries and close it properly and let air dry when possible. It's best to use a water based lube with this toy so as not to damage the material.
Silicone attracts dust and lint easily but proper storage should prevent this. Wrapping in a towel or placing into your toy box is best when not being used but avoid allowing the toys to touch others so that no damage is made to the outside.
The Lil Helper arrives in the standard plastic black box with a small scale description of the toy and the main info on the back. What makes it standout is the little activity info panel which lists the following calories burned per hour....
I actually thought I wasn't going to like this toy when I recieved it but it does a great job at warming me up when I have sex. It's not the strongest toy on the market but It provides decent stimulation for me and my husband but I think he's biased and likes it since it's not phallic shaped.
Follow-up commentaryI don't like it anymore2 months after original review
While this didn't provide intense stimulation, i did enjoy it while it lasted. After only a few uses the on/off button has stopped functioning and is completely stuck so it's basically broken. Decent lil helper while it was working though.
