The fleshlight is kind of infamous in the sex toy circle as the veritable Cadillac of vagina surrogates—the be-all, end-all of male masturbators. Chances are if you've seen any such device advertised elsewhere on the internet, it's this one. That being said, I've tried a handful of other such toys of varying quality, so I had some experiences to compare this with.

The fleshlight comes packaged in a nifty little can. It's a pretty hefty, large toy, actually. And don't listen to anyone—unless you're unfathomably naive, there's no mistaking this for a flashlight. The fleshlight definitely has some cool features when it comes to masturbators: the plastic case makes it very easy to hold and control. One of the biggest annoyances with these things is the soft ones where it gets so lubey that it's hard to hold on when you're going at it. Another cool feature is the cap on either end. The front end cap goes over the entrance and makes it easy to keep it free of dust and such. The other cap on the other end lets you control the amount of suction created by the insert. The effect is subtle, but fun to play with and definitely interesting to use. It does result in a lot of airy noise when all that air is getting pushed through. This fleshlight's exterior is molded from Raven Riley, which is definitely a plus if you're a fan. The insert is, as it shows, removable, which makes cleaning this up a breeze. Air-drying the material as you're supposed to can be an inconvenience, depending on your living arrangement.

Despite these pros, there's really not a whole lot to write home about with regard to the experience here. If you take a look at the cross-view of the inside of the insert, it looks very promising. The inside looks to be modeled moderately closely after actual female anatomy, but some of the features are so deep inside it's worthless to a lot of guys. My experience, while definitely great and a wonderful step up from just hands, wasn't a whole lot different from other such toys. The material is nice, and it feels as though it will last longer than most other cheaper toys, but the exact same sensations can be felt from toys less than half the price. Also, I don't know how long they expect you to soak this thing in hot water to get it to retain heat for more than thirty seconds, but it was far too long for my patience (even after 5-10 minutes in too-hot-to-hold-your-hand-in water, the insert returned to room temperature within a minute). The main draw here, by my logic, is the pornstar molding, which I'm sure for some people is much more of a selling point than others. To whom it may concern, it's an important point.

Bottom line is, I don't really recommend shelling out for this unless one of the features relatively unique to this device (the case, suction control, pornstar mold, material, etc), you can get a more-than-comparable fix for much less.

There is nothing new to say here. I stopped using this a long time ago, and I no longer have it. It's definitely a high-quality toy, but I just got bored of it. Keep that in mind if you're looking to purchase it. There are cheaper, comparable alternatives.
