Review: Honey Play Box Joi

Honey Play Box Joi

As the range of options for clitoral stimulation increases over the years, I suppose it is only inevitable that these new styles will eventually be available in rabbit form. The bane of any sex toy reviewer’s existence, it was difficult enough to find a vibrating dual-stimulator to match your own body measurements, let alone one with a suction nozzle or flicking tongue. Yet while I have had some unexpected success with air pressure rabbits so far in the form of the Womanizer DUO, I have thankfully been able to avoid the latter of the two due to my general indifference to those little flapping pieces of silicone. That is, until now. When Honey Play Box recently approached me to review their brand new product, the Joi, it seemed it was finally time to give this rising star of the sex toy world a go. Which may or may not have been highly influenced by the fact that it comes in my favourite colour, which I’ve never had a vibrator in before.

Review: Funzze Couple Sharing Vibrator Ⅱ

Funzze Couple Sharing Vibrator Ⅱ

Last week at the blog I looked at a new range of toys based around the idea of not using gendered marketing or specifying a particular use, so that users could instead make their own decisions on how to go about enjoying them. But whilst the Sunflower and the rest of Evolved Novelties’ Gender X range were certainly non-gendered, their line of mostly classic sex toys still couldn’t shake off the methods of use that we’ve already come to associate them with. So for today’s review, I’m looking to take this idea one step further, with a vibrator that’ll really get your imagination going. The Funzze Couple Sharing Vibrator II is a new style of sex toy that I’ve watched go viral over the past few years. With two rounded prongs at one end and a large shaft at the other, there is no immediately obvious way to use this product, and this sense of choice has made the design a popular option when shopping with white-label retailers.

Review: Gender X Sunflower

Gender X Sunflower

Navigating the world of sex toys as a non-binary queer person is not easy. Go to almost any online sex store, and you’ll see a menu with categories like “female”, “male”, “couples”, “gay” and “lesbian”. But where do I fit? I could choose female, my gender assigned at birth, but what if I want a toy I can use solo and with a partner, and what if I don’t know the gender of said partner? It gives me a headache just thinking about it, and that’s as someone with almost a decade of experience in the industry. So I can’t imagine the difficulties that arise for someone new to all this, regardless of how you identify. Because at the end of the day, it’s all bullshit. Sex toys have no gender or sexuality, and the vast majority of them can be used by anyone, regardless of your genitals or preference of partner. So when Betty’s Toy Box (one of the few retailers doing the right thing by categorising toys by type and which body part they stimulate) recently introduced me to Evolved Novelties’ new brand Gender X, which offers a range of gender-neutral sex toys, I signed right up to review the Sunflower.

Review: Vibe Pad

Vibe Pad with remote

My passion project for the last few months, a huge round-up of some of the industry’s best grinding sex toys, is now out to the world. But with such a diverse range of products already making up this emerging trend, there was more than a few toys I was interested in including that just didn’t make the cut. One of them had to be the intriguing Vibe Pad from ORION Wholesale, which one of the round-up’s main contributors, Nudie Co, had just recently gotten in stock. However, whilst very much a grinder just like the toys in that post, it was at the same time completely different, and ultimately it was left out, feeling too unique to be adequately compared to the others. Thankfully for everyone though, Nudie Co were still kind enough to send one out, so that I might give it a review of its own!

Review: Bestvibe Sucking Vibrator

Bestvibe Sucking Vibrator

I can’t help but feel like I’ve become a bit of a connoisseur of suction toys over the last six years. While I was on the fence when they were first announced, it was simply love at first try, and since then they have become my favourite type of sex toy to both test and use. Powerful and climatic in a way that words struggle to describe, they are the only type of toy I don’t need to watch porn or do some intense visualisation to orgasm with, and playing with them always requires some tissues and a blanket on hand, for my inevitable watery eyes and need to bite down on something. So while Womanizer and Satisfyer are typically a safe bet when I’m recommending them to people, I’m pretty much always down to try new versions when they’re offered to me, and Bestvibe happens to be the latest brand to do so with their popular Sucking Vibrator.

Review: Snail Vibe

Snail Vibe

As a sex toy tester, I hear terms like “innovative”, “first of its kind”, and “revolutionary” a lot when looking at products to review, with every company seemingly trying to “reinvent” the vibrator. The thing is, they really don’t need reinventing. Sure, new features like app compatibility and Smart Silence are great, and motors can always be improved upon, but designs like wand massagers and G-Spot vibrators are classics for a reason, and don’t need entire overhauls. The exception to this, and the one product where I do think there is room for change, however, is the rabbit. Despite their popularity, these dual-stimulation toys are well known to be very hit-and-miss depending on how the user’s body matches up to the toy’s typically rigid measurements, and often considered a big risk to purchase. In fact, after seven years of reviewing them, the recent We-Vibe Nova 2 is the only one I feel even remotely safe in recommending to people, but even that doesn’t work for everyone. So when I heard about an entirely new type of dual stimulator that had just won an award for its universal design, I was excited. At least I was, until I saw it…
