Promising, yes. Attractive design, yes. Quality construction, actually yes. So what's the problem?

The Tenga Flip Air (White) is a great concept. It builds on the original Tenga Flip Hole line and adds a new world of textures including a difference from the White and Black models as well as the Lite versions, which are also different in size. However, when they went from a top hinge to a side hinge something went amiss. As stated above the quality of the construction, from the molded outer case to the TPR Silicone interior is well made, and well attached.

Something simply went wrong in the execution. While it seems to create a good seal along the edges you are left with what I can only describe as a "Can of Queef". This thing is as noisy during use as a Hitachi Wand, and infinitely more distracting. I know, too much lube, not enough lube, too endowed, not endowed enough. Well I tried everything to make this thing behave quietly, including trying it with different size toys to see if it was indeed an anatomy issue but it is just always loud.

It is, in fact, so loud it is distracting. I have tried it a few times and have yet to get off using it, usually swapping out to a different toy, or handling this manually. Even with the wife "driving" it was a no go. I am in hopes that this was a design issue on my end and they are not all like this, but I do not believe this to be the case.

I can't recommend it to anyone based on experience but I will cover the basics. Molded plastic outer in white with a side hinge to allow it to "clam shell" open. To open simply slide and remove the cover(a molded plastic cup with an upright on one side which fits onto a rail to keep it closed and to cover the opening when not in use). Open the "clam shell" and apply lube to the interior. The interior is a TPR Silicone (water based lube here) map of bums waves and depressions, one on each side of the shell and each with its own textures. The interior is open at one end and terminated at the other by the end of the shell. From here simply replace the cap this time leaving the hole exposed for insertion. The flip open design makes it a breeze to clean with warm soapy water and the cup/upright can be used a a sort of drying rack. On either side of the shell is a small rubber protrusion which acts as an air valve to control the amount of "suction" created in each stroke. The control air release to each side independently.

Unfortunately here I have used the words, stroke, terminate, distracting, noisy, and everyone's new favorite, "Can of Queef". As such, this is a thumbs down in my book. Hope the next version corrects these problem, because it truly is a promising product.
