Review: Hot Octopuss AMO

Hot Octopuss AMO

One of my most anticipated products to review in 2019 was the Hot Octopuss DiGiT. As one of my favourite manufacturers, primarily due to their ability to harness powerful yet rumbly vibes in their sex toys, the announcement that they were going to release their first clitoral vibrator was a big deal. It was well worth all the fuss too, because the DiGiT was one of my favourite toys of the year, coming in at Number 8 on my Top 10 Sex Toys of 2019 list. But whilst the vibrations were certainly there, I did have a little bit of an issue with the non-removable finger band the toy featured. While one of the main design features, so I can’t really fault it, I did find it restricted my use of the toy, and also mentioned that it might pose a greater issue for others, for instance those who are left-handed. As such, I suggested an upgrade to the DiGiT where the band could be removed, or alternatively a version without the band at all, as a fix. So, as Hot Octopuss are a fantastic bunch who actually listen to reviewer feedback, here we are again with the brand new AMO, a toy that’s very similar to the DiGiT… just without the band!

Review: ZALO Amorette

ZALO Amorette with case

I have been lusting after ZALO’s Sweet Magic line for years. You see, unlike most other toy brands, ZALO splits their products into collections, which are each inspired by a different theme. Since I tend to review new products though, so far I’ve only tried their latest range, the Legend Series, which takes its aesthetic cues from ancient Egypt. I loved those products and they really helped to establish ZALO as one of the best companies in the industry, but really it just made me want to try the Sweet Magic line even more. Based on the anime magical girls I grew up with, like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura, I felt like these toys were made for me. But despite all this, Sweet Magic is a fairly old range, and as such it seemed unlikely I would be asked to review anything from it. So you can imagine my excitement when ZALO recently announced they would be adding a new toy to the collection! Plus, not just any toy, but the Amorette, an absolutely beautiful egg-style vibrator that truly looks like nothing I’ve ever seen before.

Review: Uberrime Tentare Tentacle

Uberrime Tentare Tentacle

It’s finally time for the last review of 2019 (and the decade!), and I’ve made sure to save the best till last. The Uberrime Tentare Tentacle is a product I’ve been dying to try all year, so I’m super excited to finally have my hands on it and be sharing my thoughts with you all today. Now, I’ve got to admit, the first time I saw this toy I thought it was a dildo. So despite how amazing it looked, my mind instantly assumed that due to its stubby dimensions it must be quite large, which probably wouldn’t work for my body. But I couldn’t get its unique design out of my head, so after I successfully tested the Uberrime Ripley Alien earlier this year I went back to it and actually read the product listing. Turns out it’s not a dildo at all (although it can still be used as one), but actually a sleeve for bullet vibrators such as the We-Vibe Tango. Well, as soon as I read that I knew I had to have one, but with so many other beautiful Uberrime toys to choose from it still took me awhile to get round to requesting it. When it was time to choose a product to wrap up the year with however, I knew exactly what I wanted it to be.

Review: Dame Kip

Dame Kip

On August 9th 2019 at approximately 6:58pm my We-Vibe Tango was pronounced dead after finally losing its long battle with battery failure. It was a truly sad day, as even though I knew the end was near I still wasn’t quite ready for it, because I had yet to find a successor. The Nu Sensuelle Point was the obvious choice, and as my second favourite bullet vibrator it was more than worthy of taking over the Tango’s work. But it had health issues of its own to contend with, this time in the form of the buttons struggling to respond. So, instead, I put my hope in a new toy, the Hot Octopuss DiGiT, but despite strong vibrations I couldn’t help but feel its use was limited due to the restrictive finger band. As such it’s been a pretty dark time for me since then, but I got through it knowing that one day I would find a worthy replacement. So, when I heard whispers about an amazing new clit vibe I thought perhaps my time had finally come. At least I did until I heard who was making it… Dame Products.

Review: Cosmopolitan G-Spot Romance

Cosmopolitan G-Spot Romance

While they still might not accepted by websites like Facebook and Instagram, sex toys have certainly ditched a lot of their associated stigma over the last few years. They’ve gone from something that was incredibly private, to something that now many people are not only happy to express a desire for, but to also admit that they own. Plus, what could originally only be purchased from shady looking stores where companies would seek to take advantage of customers by selling them products made with unsafe materials, can now be bought in the comfort of your own home on inclusive websites that promote and educate about body-safe options. As with anything that becomes popular however, it has meant that now even previously established brands are looking to cash in on it. I spoke a lot about this recently in my Future of Sex Toys post, and it’s something I believe we’re only seeing the beginning of. It’s an idea that has intrigued me though, as despite their inexperience in this industry, brands do have a reputation to keep up and thus incentive to create high quality products. So, when My Little Secret contacted me recently and asked if I wanted to review Cosmopolitan’s new range of toys, starting with their G-Spot Romance, I couldn’t resist.

Review: Lovehoney Desire Wand Vibrator

Lovehoney Desire Wand Vibrator

Wand massagers are easily one of my favourite, if not my absolute favourite, types of sex toys. The best toy I’ve ever tried is one of them, and while they aren’t as versatile as perhaps bullet vibrators or suction toys, you really can’t beat the orgasms you get with them. So it’s surprising to see that it has been well over a year since I last reviewed one. There isn’t really a good reason for this, but if I had to suggest one I would say that the wand vibrator industry has been a little quiet lately, and so there really just hasn’t been anything that has caught my eye enough to request it for review. This changed however, when Lovehoney contacted me last month about reviewing their brand new Desire App-Controlled Knicker Vibrator, and at the same time asked if there was anything else from their luxury Desire range I’d be interested in. It then only took one look at their store for my eyes to be instantly drawn to their uniquely shaped Desire Wand Vibrator.
