Alliance of Independent Sex Toy Testers

Last updated October 7th, 2024

The Alliance of Independent Sex Toy Testers unites bloggers who are trusted to provide authentic & inclusive reviews of adult products.

Why Is This Important?

The main aim of my blog is to provide consumers with unbiased and honest reviews of body-safe sex toys. I work hard to keep this an open and inclusive space, and put countless hours into testing each product that gets featured here to ensure you have as much information as possible before making a purchase.

Unfortunately, not everyone is me. Lately there has been an increase in “review” websites where the sole intention is to make money. These blogs pump out glowing reviews of products they’ve never even tried, whilst simultaneously using shady techniques to make themselves rank higher on search engines, such as Google. This means that when you look for a review of a toy, you’re more likely to find their website than mine, or any of the other amazing bloggers who do work similar to me.

That’s why we started the Alliance of Independent Sex Toy Testers. It’s a group of blogs just like mine, who provide reviews you can trust. We’re not a collective, but rather a group of independent bloggers who are able to uplift other members and hold each other accountable. So next time you find yourself on a sex toy tester’s blog, make sure to check for the above badge!
