Being a Raven Riley fan I first heard of about this product on her site. I have heard claims that it feels like a real vagina and can't say I care nor do I believe it. The Raven Riley FleshLight was my first one ever and despite the problem I have had with it, I do enjoy this product. I have never heated one in water before using it and that is not required. Much like powdering, it is a suggestion. Upon opening the box and pulling out the sleeve you better notice the hard plastic tube place in the sleeve and remove it or you will be certain to feel lots of pain the first time you use it. (Just a note, I am trying really hard not to swear. Hahaha) No that is not the problem I ran into. But it is something that has been a problem for others I am sure since they warn about it on their site. The FleshLight has a distinct smell that I can't really describe. You can feel somewhat of a powder on it as you rub it with your fingers. It is easy to tell that it does look a lot like Raven's pussy.

But enough about how it looks I would rather talk about how it feels. The first time I used it was truly one of the best things I had ever felt. I was able to feel each rib as they went over the head of my dick. The feel of the entry is still one of my favorite things and I will often pull out just enough to push back in without my dick falling out. I never enjoy having to grab it, lift it and put it back in to rub my hands off because of the lube. My favorite thing is to have sex with it stuffed between the mattress and the bedspring with a towel so the mattress doesn't get a case of mold growing on it. Plus for some reason, hands free just feels better. One thing that is hard to do with any FleshLight though is to sleep with your dick inside one. Yes I have done that and not just with this one. I take a towel and my body pillow and lay the towel across the pillow. Then I place the FleshLight on the towel after putting some lube in it. Then I fold the towel over the closed end of the FleshLight in case any lube leaks out. The towel serves to keep my bed and or blanket from getting lubed. I'm not going to have sex with them nor am I going to stick them in an orifice. No back door entry for me thank you. But any way, I will give a rite good stuffin' before I try going to sleep. Now I do actually sleep but I keep waking up to have sex with it again and again. So in short it is not the best sleep aid. Hahaha.

As to the problems I have had with this product, I have mentioned that in my first review on the SuccuDry. The problem being that it cracks and gets holes in it for some reason. I first cleaned it by running water through it in the bathroom sink. But when I figured that soap residue may be a cause of the problem I moved to the tub as it is bigger and easier to keep the sleeve from touching the sides or bottom of the basin and avoiding soap. But a replacement still had the same problem. Thinking maybe it was a towel with residual detergent on it I got a new towel for drying and had the same problem. I have tried placing it in a shoe box for drying and it makes no difference. Now I clean my FleshLights without soap, just water or alcohol without removing them from the case and then place them in a dishwasher for drying. I do not turn the dishwasher on. Heat of that temp is very bad for this product as are soap and oil or silicon based products. I have gone to great lengths to insure that my FleshLights do not deteriorate. But regardless as to what I do the problem persists. Leaving the sleeve in the case does seem to slow it down though. My best conclusion is that there is something in the water that causes the sleeve to deteriorate that way it does or it is really sensitive and residual soap on my body is the problem. But if soap residue is the problem then lots more people should be having the same problem and FleshLight then needs to address this problem by finding a way to strengthen their product without decrease quality.

Being in my thirties now I had never really thought about buying a sex toy and certainly not a blowup doll (which I still haven't done). I don't see the point in having sex with something that may pop. So when I first started contemplating getting this product and actually did it. It was certainly one of the strangest feelings I had ever experienced. I would imagine it would be like saying “I will never let my girlfriend fuck me in the ass with a strap-on dildo.” And next thing you know there you are in a doggy style position and your girl sticking it to ya. Maybe that's a little to extreme of an example, but it's what popped into my head. (Yes I realize I swore twice. It's hard fighting that impulse.) But as awkward as that was I do not regret it.

In my previous review for the SuccuDry it was requested that I comment on how loud the lube made the experience. It is not loud enough that it would be heard over some music or the TV. It may seem louder when you have those things off because you are more aware of it. But I am sure it probably seems louder than it actually is.

I really have nothing new to say about this product. Strangely I find it even less stimulating than when I first started using it and I credit that to using other FleshLights that are more stimulating. Kind of using drugs, you start with one and when it doesn't work as well you move to harder drugs. That's really about all I can say.
