Review: Uberrime Spiro Nebula

During the burst of confidence my review of the Uberrime Ripley Alien gave me a few months back that saw me asking SheVibe to review the Uberrime Dr. Manhattan, I decided to also try my luck with another of the brand’s toys: the Spiro. Smaller than the Dr. Manhattan but larger than the Ripley Alien, the Spiro has a maximum diameter of 4.4cm / 1.75″, which is a size I am quite familiar with as it features on many of my favourite dildos, such as the Tantus Vamp Super Soft and Tantus Uncut #1. However, other than the beautiful colouring, this isn’t a toy I was drawn to initially as I found the shape of it super unusual, particularly the idea of having the most girthy part of the toy halfway down its shaft. But I wouldn’t be a very good reviewer if I didn’t try new things, and it turned out resisting its vibrant colours was harder than I thought!

Review: Uberrime Dr. Manhattan

Some time ago I read a review on the Uberrime Dr. Manhattan, a dildo based on one of my favourite characters from the Watchmen comic series, and decided I had to have one. But then I checked its measurements, and like many of the fantasy toys I spend my time lusting after (see also: the Uberrime Cthulhu and anything from Pleasure Forge), I determined it was probably too big for me. After reviewing the Uberrime Ripley Alien back in July however, it gave me a new outlook on what my limits were. That toy was made with a super soft silicone I’d never experienced before, and it meant I could take its large size a lot easier than expected. So once that review was done, I had another look at the Uberrime Dr. Manhattan, and found that it used the same silicone. Apparently that was enough for me to decide that it would be my next dildo for review, and so as SheVibe agreed to send the product out to me I crossed my fingers that I’d actually be able to use it!

Review: Womanizer X Lovehoney Pro40

Let me take you on a journey… It’s 2015 and baby sex toy reviewer Grace has just made her blog and is starting to get a good understanding of the adult industry. But then something happens that sends shock waves throughout the reviewer community. An innovative new type of sex toy is released that boasts “suction” technology, from a brand with possibly the worst name ever. Everyone wanted to hate the Womanizer W100, not only because of the name, but also due to its horrendous design and outrageous price tag, but those who tested it found that it was actually surprisingly good. Then came along another company with the similarly stupid name of Satisfyer who copied this new technology, but by offering it for less and using better designs, they quickly became more popular than the original. Subsequently, in 2016 Womanizer clapped back with the release of their Pro40, which used a more stylish and budget-friendly version of their tech, evening the playing field and winning over hearts once more. These days suction toys are everywhere, but this is the original feud that catapulted the tech into what it is today, and the battle between these two brands continues. Yet as Satisfyer keep cutting costs while still somehow producing good quality products, Womanizer’s more luxury-style toys have seemed to fall behind once more, especially with the discontinuation of their popular Pro40. So when Lovehoney announced their collaboration with Womanizer to bring the Pro40 back a few weeks ago, you can imagine the fanfare it was met with.

Review: SVAKOM Siren

As a reviewer I am always on the lookout for the next big thing, so that makes it really exciting when companies innovate and create new and interesting looking toys. Don’t get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy testing old faithfuls such as G-Spot vibrators and dildos, but with those I have a pretty good idea of what to expect and how much I’ll enjoy something. With new toy designs however, it is a bit of journey into the unknown. Things could end up really really good, or really really bad, and I am venturing forth solo to uncover that truth. Then in comes SVAKOM, who are by no means a new brand in this industry, but up until last year I’ve never had any interest in trying out their generally unoriginal toy designs. What changed for me was the release of the SVAKOM Nymph, which caught the eye of many bloggers not only because of its unique design, but because of the weirdness of it. Since I wasn’t reviewing much last year due to poor health I didn’t end up getting one, but this year when SVAKOM announced their follow-up toy to the Nymph, the SVAKOM Siren, I was all over it. Luckily for me SVAKOM were kind enough to send both the Nymph and Siren out for review, so while this post focuses on the Siren, look out for my Nymph review coming soon!

Review: Satisfyer Luxury

I can’t help it, I love Satisfyer! I know they certainly aren’t the best brand out there, and have had their fair share of toy failures, but I just can’t deny the fact that every toy I have ever tried from them has been amazing. Not only that, but each toy I’ve tried has taken their signature suction technology to a whole new level, which is why every time I review one it becomes my next favourite. So far Satisfyer have had products in all of my annual Top 10 Toys of the Year lists, the only company to achieve such a feat, and they consistently place in the Top 5, going so far as to make both number four and two in last year’s list. As such, when I set out to host my biggest giveaway ever a few months ago for my Fourth Blogiversary, I knew I had to include a Satisfyer toy. I was then lucky enough to secure their newest clitoral simulator, the Satisfyer Luxury, and to be honest promoting it for that giveaway really made me want one for myself! Thankfully SheVibe were kind enough to send one for me to try, and I eagerly awaited it to see if my good luck with Satisfyer products would continue!

Review: ZALO HERO

Confidence is sexy. So when I received a press release from ZALO a few weeks ago that introduced themselves as “the leading luxury sex toy manufacturer” I was both surprised and intrigued. For a company who only branched out to the western market a few years ago, they are still considered by many the new kid on the block, that is if you even know who they are. ZALO’s products are beautiful and their packaging is exquisite, and even though I’ve only tried one of their toys, the Queen, I loved it. But “the leading luxury sex toy manufacturer”? That’s a bold claim. It is one, however, I expected them to at least be able to back up, and that is what got me first interested in the toy that the press release featured. It was HERO, their “newest and most advanced” toy yet, and as the second toy in their Legend series it was also the follow-up to the success of the Queen. Of course, with this I knew I had to get my hands on the HERO, and I was lucky enough to have ZALO and JOUJOU team up to send it my way.
