This stool is used to help you manage your sexual positions. Not really to find new ones, but more to help with the hard to hold positions. It works well for doggie style, cowgirl, reverse cowgirl; just to name a few. You could also use this during oral. With her sitting on the stool and him laying below it. The uses are endless. It all depends on your kink level. This is more of a couple item, then a solo item. There is nothing stopping you from using it on your own, there just isn't really any reason why your would want to use this on your own.

This can be used just about anywhere. It is waterproof in a sense, you just do not want to use it in the shower to tub. But it can get wet and not cause any problems. And it is pretty discreet also, no writing or sexy shapes on it. It is just a stool. You can make up all kinds of excuses for why you would have a stool in your house. Yoga, maybe?

This is made from tubular steel, with clear TPU plastic seats. (not sure what TPU plastic is, no info was included with the stool) The tubular steel had a cheap Wal-mart feel to it, not like something you just paid almost $70 for. It does hold 300 pounds though, so it is built pretty heavy duty. It just has a cheap feel to it. It was like one of those piece together kits you purchase from Ikea or Wal-mart. Its hard to explain. But you can feel quality from a high quality piece of furniture, and this just did not have the feel to it.

I can say that it held up both my wife's weight as well as mine. Not together mind you, but at separate times. So it is well made, just does not feel like it.

I did not notice any smell from it right out of the box. I don see it picking up any scents either. As far as taste goes, there was no reason to taste it. So I didn't.

This worked out pretty well for us. We used it for cowgirl and doggie style. It worked well. I will say that she was not resting on it in the right position during the doggie, and it was hurting her boobs. But with some repositioning, she was comfortable again in no time. We plan on using it for some oral tonight. With her sitting on the stool, and me beneath.

She found that she could go longer in the cowgirl position while using this stool. It was easier on her legs. It was just about the right height also, for the insertion depth of my penis. It worked during doggie, just did not really add anything extra to make us pick this up for the next time we perform in doggie position. I found that it was just easier to use the wedge or the jazz for doggie, then pull this out of the closet. But it works. So if you have a bad back and have trouble with some sexual positions, this might help you out.

This shows up in a cardboard box. Not just any cardboard box though. A box covered in models pictured in different sexual positions using the stool. They are not naked, but it is not discreet either. There really isn't a reason to keep the box around after you open it and put together your stool. I have only kept mine around for the review, then it will get tossed. I do not need it laying around the house for the kids or someone else to see. And the stool does not need it for storage.

There wasn't any instructions included with the stool. I found that you will not need instructions to put this together. It can really only go together one way. Instructions would have been nice, for those who are not good with their hands.

I think that the most needed type of cleaning for this would be a quick wipe down with a damp cloth. I don't really see this needing anything more. Ours gets wet from time to time, and my wife just wipes it down. There really isn't a way to sanitize this. I suppose you could spray on a cleaning solution, that might sanitize the surface. You can take it apart and wipe down the plastic slats with some warm water and soap. But I do not suggest getting the metal wet, as it could start to rust on you. And rust and skin do not go together very well.

We have just been leaving ours together, in the closet on the floor. It works well to hold her yoga ball and keep it from rolling around. Plus it is pretty discreet, and hides well in the closet. But it is super simple to break down into separate parts and keep stored flat under the bed or in a drawer.

Overall I feel this is a nice toy to have laying around the house. I think it is on the expensive side for what it is, but if you can get it on sale it is worth it. I would not pay full price.
