Review: Womanizer OG

Womanizer OG

I’ve now reviewed products from over one hundred different sex toy brands, but when I’m asked my favourite it’s always an easy answer: WOW Tech. The company overseeing both the German-based Womanizer and Canadian We-Vibe, among other things (and coincidentally now part of the UK’s Lovehoney Group, who have long been my favourite retailer), they’ve been leading the industry ever since I joined it and produce some of my absolute favourite toys. Whilst We-Vibe, makers of the legendary Tango X and Nova 2, have a broad catalogue to cover a wide range of electronics, Womanizer instead specialises on just one kind: air pressure. And since that also happens to be my favourite type of sex toy, it goes without saying that Womanizer holds a special place in my heart, and finishing up reviewing their entire range was a highlight of last year. Of course, even with this, I was still over the moon when they announced an entirely new model a few months ago, but with a design as eccentric as its name, I can’t say I wasn’t a little concerned.

Review: Bestvibe Flirting Magic Wand

Bestvibe Flirting Magic Wand

It’s been five months now since I moved, and yet I’ve only just finished unpacking all of my sex toys. Rather than having a bedside table filled with all the wonderful perks of my job like usual during this time, I instead had to choose just one toy to get me by. My selection, of course, had to be my beloved Magic Wand Rechargeable, which remains my favourite toy despite also being one of the oldest offerings in my collection. Spending all of this quality time with a wand massager really reminded me just how much I love them, and even though they may not be the trendiest toy right now, they are still unbeatable in terms of versatility and power. So, when Bestvibe approached me about reviewing some toys from their store recently, I told them there had to be a wand massager, and they directed me to their Flirting Magic Wand.

Review: Banana Pants Bumpher, Shagger & Honeybunch

Banana Pants Bumpher, Shagger & Honeybunch

Despite being a relatively new kind of sex toy, the idea of the grinder is extremely simple. Humans, particularly those with vulvas, already enjoy grinding upon things for stimulation, and these small pieces of silicone just offer a tool designed specifically for it. Coming up with a variety of textures to differentiate them then gives the opportunity for themes, with tentacles for those looking for something otherworldly or flowers for those wanting to keep things a little more discreet on their nightstand, and they can be as unique as you fancy too, with many stores offering them in custom colours. But some makers are taking this simple idea and continuing to innovate. We saw it with the Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II and its straps for added security and with the Godemiche Grind Ring and its ability to be attached to dildos and massagers. And now today we’re taking a look at yet another new interpretation, this time with Banana Pants’ range of dildo base cushions.

Review: Godemiche Grind Ring

Godemiche Grind Ring Bubbles and Pyramids with V-Plate

Earlier this year I took a risk covering a new type of sex toy that could have easily just turned out to be a quick fad. But it paid off in spades, with my Grinder Round-Up not only being my most popular post of the year, but one of the most viewed posts on my blog of all-time, cementing the unique style’s place as the toy of 2022. Since then, the interpretations of what a grinder can be have only continued, and I’ve received multiple offers and requests to review more of them. I was more than happy to oblige, of course, and so you can expect to see a lot more of these rideable and lay-on toys at the blog soon. To kick that off, we have UK small business Godemiche’s version, which just so happens to be one of the first grinders I became aware of, and one that I originally intended to include in the Round-Up. But it looks like it all worked out for the best, because not only have Godemiche sent me two of their Grind Ring, but they’ve thrown in its V-Plate attachment as well!

Review: ZALO BESS

ZALO BESS and attachments

It’s no secret that the design aesthetic ZALO brings to this industry is one of my all-time favourites. In the four years I’ve been working with them they have not only consistently released some of the most beautiful electronics there is, but their innovative ideas and exemplary packaging have been unrivalled. From their Sweet Magic series, inspired by the beautiful anime magical girls I grew up watching, to their more recent Legend line, featuring ancient Egyptian design cues that speak directly to the history buff in me, I can’t say enough good things about the way ZALO present their products and brand. But there is something else I’ve brought up time and time again when speaking about their products, and that is that they always try to do too much, and rather than having a single product that can do one thing perfectly, they end up with a toy that can do many things averagely. In fact, my previous review for them was actually my most positive yet, and saw them enter my Top 10 of the year for the first time, despite the fact that it was the oldest toy I had tried so far, making me call for a return to their more simplified roots. So when I recently heard about their brand new Legend series toy, the BESS, I was all for it, but I can’t say I wasn’t worried!

Review: Lovehoney Fifty Shades of Grey Greedy Girl

Lovehoney Fifty Shades of Grey Greedy Girl

As a sex toy reviewer I feel like I’m always looking at new releases and trying to discover that next big thing, but if we were going to talk about products that have stood the test of time to be well loved years after their launch, then I’d be remiss to not mention Lovehoney’s hugely popular Greedy Girl from their Fifty Shades of Grey line. The UK retailer’s collaboration with the best-selling book series is one of their most notable collections, but no product from it has ever quite come close to the cult-status that this classic black rabbit has acquired. For years now I’ve watched it consistently rank as one of Lovehoney’s best selling products, and to be perfectly honest I always just assumed it was because of the FSOG craze, and nothing more. But with the film adaptations over, and the books celebrating their 10th year anniversary, the fad may be gone but the Greedy Girl’s sales have shown no signs of slowing down. So today, with the help of JOUJOU, I think it is finally time to see what all the fuss is about!
