My girlfriend decided that our very unequal sex toy drawer needed more “man” toys. Thus the Tenga Flip Hole landing on my door step on a Wednesday afternoon. It came discreetly packaged with about 15 layers of bubble wrap. The Tenga comes in a cylindrical tube packaged with three different lubricants, Mild, Wild, and Real.

I pulled the toy out and was pretty surprised at how heavy it was. At 1.5 pounds, my right arm is sure to be a bit more defined in a few months. I opened the Tenga and was amazed at the multiple varieties of textures on the inside of this thing. I’ve had TPR Silicone toys in the past, but the Tenga has a bit of an odd residue to it. I’ve washed it a few times and the residue has lingered a little. I cleaned it, slid it back into the plastic holder, and grabbed a tube of the lubricant, Real.

How does the Tenga feel? Great! The variety of textures felt amazing. By pressing the middle buttons on the sides, the entire thing would tighten up on me. I really like sensations on the base of my penis, by pressing the buttons closest to the base, it would tighten up there, and loosen a little at the head. If you’d press the buttons at the head, it’d loosen at the base.

The best thing about the Tenga is ease of cleaning. No more funky smelling masturbators for me. I rinse this off, coat it in a toy cleaner, and rinse it off again. I find it easier to just leave it lying completely open, texture side down, on a towel than to balance it on its holder. It can be done, but I have no patience. Make sure you allow your Tenga to completely dry before storing it. I was in a hurry, shoved it in the plastic holder, and next time I used it, it had an odd smell. Luckily I was able to wash it away.

Opening up also allows for really easy lubrication. Because this is TPR Silicone, it’s best to only use water-based lubricant. The included lubricants are water-based. Mild is thickest, then real, then wild. I didn’t really care for any of the lubricants included, so I use my own.

I do have a little complaint about quality. My Tenga has an air bubble in it right above the word “Tenga”; when I squeeze this down onto my shaft, the air bubble blows up. I’m afraid it’s going to pop. Other than that, the product is well constructed.

The Tenga Flip Hole is my “man” toy. It’s well-constructed, provides great stimulation, and cleans more easily than any other masturbator I’ve ever owned. It is expensive, but it should last longer than most other masturbators just because it can thoroughly be cleaned.
