The first dildo I ever reviewed was the Tantus Splish, and until like most products that I reviewed when I first started, this toy has really stood the test of time and is still one of my favourites. With a diameter of only 2.5cm / 1″ and a length of 11.4cm / 4.5″, it is far too small to be used as a regular dildo though, and instead has found a place in my home for anal play and as my partner’s alternative to fingering. I loved the drip-like design and noted in my review “Its texture is simply marvellous [for anal], and I know I just need to get my hands on a Splash now so my vagina can have a similar experience”. The Splash was the Splish’s larger cousin and I was eager to get one, until Tantus discontinued them both. Those were some sad days in sex toy land… until recently when I noticed Tantus had announced two new products. They have a different name and a new colour palette, but sure enough the Magma and Mini Magma are the reincarnations of the Splish and Splash.
Review: Funkit Toys NoFrillDo R
It’s not too often I get really excited about being sent a product these days. But when Nikki Darling recently announced they would be bringing the NoFrillDo by Funkit Toys to Australia, I knew I had to get one. I’ve been interested in the creations of Funkit Toys for a few years now, and even wrote about their Signet, a silicone ring designed to help further stimulate the clitoris when masturbating with your hand, early last year in my Top New Sex Toys I Want in 2017 post. Unfortunately, the Signet was part of a crowd-funding campaign which didn’t make its goal, and so I never ended up testing it out. But then late last year Funkit decided to try their luck at crowdfunding once more, this time for the NoFrillDo, and it was an astounding success, raising 465% of its goal. Obviously this caught my eye, and so I was over the moon when I heard they would soon be available to purchase in my own country. Nikki Darling must have read my mind, because soon after they asked me whether I wanted to review one!
Review: Njoy Pure Wand
When I started reviewing I made a list of all the toys I believed were Sex Toy Reviewer Must-Haves. I’m proud to say I now own all of them, but for awhile there has been one exception to this and that was the Njoy Pure Wand. Renowned for its heavenly G-spotting and squirting abilities in the sex toy world, the Njoy Pure Wand has been a toy I have probably mentioned in my reviews over a hundred times. One of the main reasons I haven’t gotten it till now (other than the price) is that I have a difficult G-spot that loves to hide and I was starting to think it just wasn’t for me. This was until in July when I got the Jopen Comet Wand as a cheaper way for me to explore the world of G-spotting before committing to one of Njoy’s pieces. If you’ve read that review, which I’d recommend if you’re interested in G-spotting and the Pure Wand, you’ll know that I absolutely adored it and instantly made the decision to get a Njoy Pure Wand as soon as humanly possible. So, of course, as soon as I heard one of my favourite stores to work with, JOUJOU, had started stocking Njoy recently, you can bet exactly what I requested!
Review: Sex Wooden Toys Afrodite
Over the last few months I’ve had the pleasure to review such a diverse range of toys from both large-scale and independent manufacturers. I’ve sought out new materials to try, recently reviewing a stone dildo and with a stainless steel toy review also currently in the works, as well as receiving toys from a range of different locations such as Spain, England, Germany and Norway. So when independent company Sex Wooden Toys from Italy contacted me about reviewing one of their handmade wooden sex toys I jumped on the chance and requested their beautiful Afrodite dildo.
Review: Laid D.1 Stone Dildo
I’ve always been very interested in the healing and enhancement properties that come with different types of stones or crystals. I have very fond memories as a kid of picking out stones that were supposed to help me in certain areas, such as ‘improves your art’ or ‘helps you make friends’, and I still have a rather large collection. As such, I have lusted after the stone collection of toys from Laid ever since I first saw them. Unfortunately Laid products are both expensive and not very common to see in Australia, so they quickly fell to the bottom of my wishlist. Last month however I announced my partnership and affiliation with Australian retailer JOUJOU. As part of this I was able to choose a product from their range to review, and you can imagine my excitement when I saw they stocked Laid. I was most interested in their original dildo design, the Laid D.1 Stone, and set about eagerly waiting for it to arrive.
Review: Tantus Flurry
Since its release Tantus’s Dual Density O2 line has been all the rage in silicone dildos and my dream to own one of these beauties was finally fulfilled recently. In fact, I somehow now own three, which truly is a thought that fills my heart with happiness. This review is all about the Tantus Flurry, however I will soon be reviewing the other two, which are the Gary and Uncut #1. It has been a little while since my last Tantus review, so if you aren’t aware then let me mention once again that Tantus is one of my absolute favourite sex toy manufactures and dildo makers due to their use of body-safe ultra-premium silicone. They are the makers of my current favourite dildo, and if it wasn’t for the fact that their shipping prices to Australia are so high I would likely own every dildo they have on offer. Last year I treated myself and bought a few of their dildos before their shipping prices got so high, however this was my first time asking them for possible review items and I was so glad when they agreed to send me some toys over!
