Getting this thing working was easy. A quick run through the wash, and it was clean and ready for use. The docking part of the toy works best with a little bit of liquid. Basically you cannot just stick it on a desk or bathroom wall without some liquid. After setting it up and twisting the knob at the end to snap it in place so it wouldn't go anywhere, you can use the toy. I found that this toy helped me to last longer while also practicing the strenuous exercise routine that is having sex. I appreciated the warm feeling the inside of the toy gave. It was very life-like and easy to get to completion. I am circumcised, so this is a very promising toy for all facets of play. You can also pull the toy out of the "fleshlight" hold that is around the toy and enjoy the benefits it provides as well. All around, great toy and great product.
