This toy was extremely promising and exciting when it arrived however over time we realized how hard it was to clean and that it began to fall apart which was unexpected for the toys price. We would not buy this toy again and would not recommend it personally to others as it is simple but the quality does not live up to the price.
This is a very simple and easy to understand toy. As it has a basic and non obvious look you can just pull it out of the packaging, lube it up and away you go. There is really no wrong way to hold it so you can turn it to get the right sensations for your own personal liking. There is give in the sleeve so that it can adjust to different sizes.
This toy works for both solo play or to add some new enhancement to couples play. Instead of a plain hand job or blow job have her or him use it for some new sensations and since it has no vibrating parts it is completely waterproof and can be enjoyed anywhere.
The toys outside is made of hard plastic, providing some rigidity to hold its shape. The material of the actual sleeve is TPR silicone which is very smooth. The toy doesn't have a smell or a taste. The smoothness of the silicone makes for great gliding when you add lube and never really needs a second application of lube once you apply the first and begin your fun.
The inside of the sleeve is like a toy store of different textures combined into one toy. There are nubs and ridges and bumps all along the interior. These all combine along with the material to provide a unique experience.
Being made of TPR silicone means it needs to be washed before and after each time you use it. It is easily washed with warm water and soap or for those who prefer, an antibacterial toy cleaner. It also means you can only use a water based lubricant with this toy.
The design itself does not scream sex toy, which makes it somewhat discreet. It is not a small toy so I wouldn't leave it out. The actual size of the toy was unexpected as it was bulkier than my husband and I expected it to be. This bulkiness makes it a little more difficult to hold unless you have bigger hands. There are two openings in the hard plastic on the sides that allow you to squeeze the TPR silicone sleeve directly, which allows you to adjust the tightness to your liking, but again if you have smaller hands it can be difficult to wrap your hand comfortably around it.
My husband really liked all the different textures on the inside and the fact that he could control the tightness of the toy as he went. He also has bigger hands than I and found it easier to hold the toy than I did.
The toy is very easy to travel with as it comes with a base that covers the opening and holds the toy together.
My husband was very pleased with the uniqueness of all the different textures all combined on the inside of the sleeve. He also found it very easy to use and to adjust the tightness throughout the use.
The cleaning of the toy has both pros and cons, so you have to decide if it's worth it for yourself. Unlike most sleeves the Flip Hole actually hinges open allowing complete access to the interior of the sleeve. Even though it doesn't take any special cleaning, all the different textures and nubs create hard to clean nooks and crannies inside the sleeve. This means you need to really be careful when you clean it, making sure you get it completely cleaned and completely rinsed out. However it is super easy to make sure it dries completely since the base acts as a stand to hang the toy open on for it to air dry.
As stated before the outside of the toy and the base of the toy are made of hard plastic but the interior sleeve is made of TPR silicone. It is completely water proof. The toy requires that you clean it before and after each use which as stated above has its pros and cons. You can also only use water based lubricant with this toy.
It comes in a clear plastic tube along with three small tubes of lubes. I can not describe the lubes as we decided to stick with our favorite lube when we used this toy.
My husband and I have had this toy for a little over a year now and it had unfortunately not held up like we had expected it would. The sleeve is no longer as tight as it was, even when you use the toys unique ability to adjust it during use. Parts of the casing have fallen off as well. We have also found it to be way harder to clean then we really want to have to put into a toy. However, these are definitely different for others. As for us if it weren't falling apart we might be willing to put the time in.
Overall had we known what we know now about the toy, we probably would have chosen something different to try as this began as such a promising toy but over time has been disappointing.
Follow-up commentaryI still don't like it3 months after original review
We had to throw this away and replace it because it just wouldn't hold up. It finally kicked the bucket and no longer did anything for the hubby. Definitely feels like it was a waste of money for this item to have not lasted long.

Thank you for the review
I was just wondering if you used any type of powder with it? Having it fall apart so soon is really disappointing!
