First off, let me start by saying that this is one of the best male sex toys you can buy!

I bought this toy a couple of years ago due to wanting to experience anal - but my girlfriend not being willing to try. I will say one thing: this toy will not disappoint.

Now, one thing I do have to say up front is that I don't believe this is the most realistic "anal" toy out there, but it still feels absolutely FABULOUS! Truth is, I don't think any toy can feel just like anal, no matter what!

If you have a Fleshlight currently, there isn't much deviation here, aside from the clear color and the pattern inside as well as the orifice which may differ slightly.

The Fleshlight is definitely large, but can easily be concealed in a closet or large drawer - just make sure no one sees it. It is pretty easy to recognize, especially being that this one is clear.

Using it is easy, and one of my favorite ways to do so is actually to place it in between the bed matressess. In my opinion, this feels even better than it normally does and does add some realism to it (plus, my bed height and my height when I am kneeled down is PERFECT for this). Be aware that you may want to put a blanket around it. I've had experiences where some lube got on the sheets, but nothing major.

Aside from this, you can use it pretty much any way you want, even in the shower - if you have the space. Like I said, it is definitely a bit of a large item.

You can submerge it in hot water for 10-15 minutes prior to use if you want to feel the warmth, which makes it feel more realistic. Honestly, I can say I only did this about twice. The warmth disappears rather quickly and it retains a bit of water, making the experience a bit more wet than it would be (water will fly out of the bottom as it is being used).

One of the best features about this is the bottom (or top, when it is being used). The cap twists off and allows you to control the amount of suction. All the way off will be super loose, requiring very little lube. All the way down will almost feel like you're in a vacuum, and truthfully you'll use more lube than is worth it. However, everyone can find exactly how they like it.

Twisting the cap off is really easy, however I found that once the cap, or the Fleshlight gets wet, twisting it back on can take a few seconds. It REALLY likes to misthread.

One downside with the toy is that it attracts a lot of dirt and hair on the outside. Meaning if you accidentally drop it on the carpet, you may look like you have a Fleshlight cat afterwards. Luckily, it isn't too hard to clean. Simply run some water through it (and on it) for a few minutes and let it air dry. Spray any antibacterial sex-toy cleaner you have on it and you're good to go. However, as a word of advice, I noticed that simply doing this was not enough. After a couple months, the inside started to look pretty nasty.

If this happens to you, the best thing to do is to literally flip it inside out. First, push your fingers through both ends and wash out anything in there. Then, flip one end inside out as much as possible and run water through it, rub your hands across it, etc. Repeat on the other side. I wouldn't recommend flipping the whole thing inside out, as it may damage the toy (though I have done this many times without any ill effects).

If you're looking for a realistic toy, I'm not sure I can say this is just as good as anal since I don't think it is myself. However, it is damn good and you will be orgasming in minutes if you're not careful. I've had it for two years now and it is still in great condition, so it isn't a purchase you will regret.
