Design needs some serious work -- disappointing
While the Handy's a good idea on paper, in reality it suffers from severe design flaws, leading to an unsatisfying experience and severe durability problems.

Pros
Looks nice, not terribly expensive.
Cons
Nubbed surface isn't very nice, takes a lot of lube, durability problems, fell apart after 3 uses.
I bought the Handy Handy (henceforth referred to as just "The Handy") a while ago, and gentlemen, I urge you, stay away from this one. Buy another sleeve, a large bottle of lubricant, a pair of rubber gloves, anything but this... unless you're used to buying disposable toys anyway. The Handy does its job... for a while, but it has some serious durability problems, in addition to one of the inside surfaces just not feeling like it should. I seriously hope mine was just defective.
The Handy's made of Silicone TPR, so silicone-based lubricants will destroy it. Cleaning is simple enough, either wash out and dry the inside, or turn it inside-out for cleaning. The lack of individual chambers makes it easy enough to clean,
Use is straightforward enough, just lubricate the opening, insert your wang, and make yourself a little genetic milkshake. Terrible puns aside, this thing requires more lubricant than my other two sleeves, and I always end up getting some on the outside of the sleeve, making it difficult to get a solid grip on. Couple that with the fact that my other sleeves, which are actually in the same general price range as the Handy, are both more enjoyable and more effective, and that makes the Handy a "something different" sleeve at best.
The ridged inner surface was enjoyable, felt nice, and did the job. The nubbed inside surface, however was a whole different story. The nubs were unnoticeable, which is strange, considering the nubs on the outside were noticeable (Yes, I tested this specifically for this review). There was almost no suction as well, because the material was so thin, it will just collapse in on itself when the penis slides out.
The Handy was probably made with such thin material to make it reversible. I tried the nubbed surface once, put the ridged surface on the inside, and left it like that ever since, even for cleaning. I've used the thing a total of three times. The closed end is falling off, there's a pair of holes at the entrance opening, and there's a one-inch tear in the sidewall of my Handy. In my review of the Head Honcho, I know I cited some durability problems, but the fragility of the Handy is simply beyond belief; I've turned my Honcho inside-out more times than I've used the Handy, and the Honcho is holding up infinitely better.
In short, there are sleeves in the Handy's price range that are superior in all aspects, simply because the Handy has severe, glaring design flaws, which add up to a less satisfying experience and severe durability issues. I urge you, gentlemen, buy another sleeve, an anal plug, a pair of rubber gloves and a water bottle, anything but this thing. That said, it was better than the hand, all three times I used it before it fell apart, but in hindsight, the only justification for my purchase of the Handy is inexperience with sleeves in general.

Thank you for viewing Nick Hawk the handy handy – masturbator discontinued review page!
The genetic milkshake" comment just killed me - again, I love your sense of humor! Rubber gloves, a water bottle, et al. bahaha! I think you did a great job relating the issues and comparing it to the other sleeve you reviewed. I look forward to more reviews from you!
