Review: Womanizer Liberty

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but my only two reviews of Womanizer’s core products so far have been of their most expensive items. As great as this has been (in a “best orgasms of my life” kinda way), I worry it has given me a false sense of how good their products really are, and it’s also been hard to recommend such pricey items to people, especially when I know full well that without this blog I wouldn’t be able to afford them either. So, it’s because of this that lately I’ve been eyeing the rest of Womanizer’s somewhat small range, particularly their most affordable offerings (which are still really mid-range in terms of price) the Starlet 2 and Liberty. I wasn’t fully set on which I’d prefer, but whilst in the process of finding a company to partner with for the review, something major happened. Womanizer announced they’d teamed up legendary singer Lily Allen to bring out a very special edition of the Liberty… and that’s when I knew I had to have it.

The Sender

Once I’d finished freaking out over how beautiful this toy is and mucking around with its official Instagram Filter, I set my attention to actually getting one. In the end it was For Her Box who agreed to send it out to me, and since this is my first time working with them at the blog I think some introductions are in order! An online retailer based in Brisbane, Australia, For Her Box is solely owned and operated by the wonderful Nik! Since 2016 she has been carefully testing and curating the items she stocks, and the result is a store that puts the emphasis in quality over quantity. Stocking some of the biggest brands around, such as Satisfyer, Womanizer and Fun Factory, as well as harder to get names, like Doxy and ZALO, the majority of items are then body-safe, however do be cautious of the few that aren’t when browsing, particularly within the dildo section. Then, rather than leaving you to browse the overwhelming possibilities, Nik has also shortlisted six of her favourite items from all the major categories, making choosing what to buy easier than ever. Plus, she has also developed a range of gift box-style options, allowing you to pick between “exposed” boxes, where you’ll know what you’ll be getting, and mystery boxes, where all you know is what type of stimulation the items will provide. Shipping Australia-wide in discreet packaging, For Her Box offers a flat-rate of $9.95 for postage or free shipping on overs of over $300, and even provide a free samples with every order.

Product Description

The Womanizer Liberty by Lily Allen is really just the OG Liberty with a fresh coat of paint, but boooy does it look good. The bright pink mixed with an orange-red is exactly the type of bold colours I enjoy, and it has been such a refreshing addition to my toy box. Thankfully though it doesn’t actually cost any more than the regular Liberty, which is great considering companies raising the price of a product just because of a colour change isn’t exactly uncommon. As for the Liberty itself, this has been designed to be Womanizer’s travel-friendly offering, a fact that is readily apparent online due to its fitted magnetic cover, but even more so when you see it in person and realise just how small this thing is. With a length of 10cm / 4 inches, this looks more like a fake key-chain version of a sex toy than an actual one, and I was genuinely shocked when I first saw it. Even now it still looks completely out-of-place when near my other suction toys, although I do appreciate how it fits neatly into the palm of my hand. Almost half of the Liberty’s size is then taken up by its white silicone suction nozzle, which is removable for easy cleaning and so you can switch it out with the included alternate size, whilst the other half features its two buttons. On the back is then the Womanizer lettermark rather than their full logo to keep things discreet, as well as the magnetic charging prongs for the toy’s USB charger. In addition, the Liberty is also fully waterproof and comes in four other non-limited edition colours: lilac, pink rose, powder blue and red wine. 

Packaging

My order for the Womanizer Liberty by Lily Allen was placed with For Her Box on the 9th of November and I received it promptly on the 17th. The box was fully discreet, with no mention of the sender or contents. Opening it up I then found the item beautifully gift-wrapped, and included was a sample packet of lubricant and a thank you card offering a discount on future purchases and care instructions, which were all massively appreciated touches and one of the things I love about shopping at small businesses. The box for the Liberty itself then takes full advantage of the special edition’s celebrity connection, featuring pictures of Lily Allen more prominently than the actual toy, as well as her signature on both the front and back of the box. This initial sleeve, which does provide a few pieces of information about the product, can then be removed to reveal a much more toy-focused box underneath that also features a clear window so you may see the Liberty prior to opening. Both the sleeve and box then use the same bright colour scheme as the toy, which looks absolutely fabulous and really stands out. Once the safety seals have been removed you can slide out the inner compartment using the ribbon handle, which gives you access to the toy as well as its accessories. This includes a “quick-start user guide” (although despite the name it is one of the thickest instruction manuals I’ve ever received, mostly due to it covering so many languages. The full version can be found here), a small card encouraging you to post about the toy on social media, the charging cord, an alternative suction nozzle, and a high-quality branded storage bag.

Charging

Charging the Womanizer Liberty by Lily Allen is easy as it is USB rechargeable. Simply plug one end of the cord into a USB port, and then the other end can be connected magnetically to the toy, which thankfully has one of the strongest attachment strengths I’ve encountered. While charging a light inside the suction nozzle will flash, and when complete this will remain solid. Charging should then take about one hour, and this will give you around 120 minutes of play time. Plus, when the Liberty is almost out of battery, it will let you know by flashing its light while on. In addition, Womanizer recommend charging the toy before first use, and it’s also worth noting that the charging cord features the brand’s logo, which I love as it makes it easy to identify.

Controls

With only two buttons and no special features or pattern modes, controlling the Womanizer Liberty By Lily Allen couldn’t be easier. To turn it on just hold down the plus button for two seconds, which will put the toy on its lowest suction intensity and turn on the light within its nozzle. You can then continue clicking the plus button to increase the product’s intensity by 6 levels, or use the minus button to lower them again, and when done you just need to hold down the plus button for two more seconds. Overall I am happy with all of this and love the simplicity, although it does fall into an issue I usually have with Satisfyer’s suction toys, in that I frequently find myself turning the toy off during use by accidentally holding down the plus button after increasing the speed, and so personally I would prefer it if the minus button turned it off instead. But really this is just me being a nit-picky reviewer. Also of note is that six speeds is a lot less than I have grown accustom to from suction toys (with the Womanizer Premium and DUO both having 12, for example), but this is still more than most vibrators offer.

Travel Case

In regards to the Liberty’s case, this has clearly been well considered as it works brilliantly. The two pieces fit together perfectly, whilst the magnets ensure they stick. When it comes to these sorts of things there is a fine line between having the magnets be strong enough so that the case doesn’t fall off, while still being weak enough for the case to be lifted without any resistance, and I feel Womanizer have balanced this superbly. As for it being discreet I do feel this works well, easily being mistaken for a make-up or menstrual product case, although the bright pink obviously makes it very eye-catching. So for those who really care about this being used for travel or privacy perhaps one of the regular colours would be better, as these are still beautiful but otherwise far more muted.

First Impressions

Not only is the Liberty my cheapest core Womanizer toy by far ($100 less than my second cheapest, the Premium), but it is also really small, so to say I was concerned about its power levels is an understatement. I mean, I wasn’t expecting it to be able to compete with Womanizer’s higher-budget toys, but being so accustomed to stimulation from toys like the Premium left me worried about how a toy less than half its size and price could compare at all. As soon as I turned it on however it was obvious my worries were unfounded, because this little toy can bring it! Plus, it is also incredibly low-volume despite its clear power, easily being my quietest Womanizer so far, and it’d even beat out my Satisfyers too if it wasn’t for the Pro Penguin. As for the interchangeable suction nozzles, these remind me more of the type that was included with the Premium than with the DUO, as rather than having an alternatively sized hole it instead varies their length. This means that people who have a longer clitoris will be covered, as well as those who prefer more pin-point stimulation.

My Experience

I’ve been almost inseparable from my Womanizer Premium since I got it. So switching to the tiny Liberty felt quite strange, and I was just hoping for something good enough to be able to recommend to people looking for a cheaper option. But instead I’ve found myself slowly falling in love with this toy and its deep, powerful suction abilities. It seems that while Womanizer have sacrificed a number of their more luxury features, such as Smart Silence, to reduce the price of the Liberty, their breathtaking clitoral stimulation technology was not one of them, because this toy easily competes with some of the best suction toys I have tried. As a result, the most noticeable difference between using this and other products is the Liberty’s unusually small range of intensities, which not only gives you less of a build up but also means that it ultimately doesn’t reach the same heights as a toy like the Premium. In fact, if I was going to compare the Liberty’s suction to that toy’s 12 settings then I would say it feels most like levels 3 to 9, as it doesn’t start as low but also doesn’t get as high. But make no mistake, the Liberty still feels absolutely amazing and gives me some ridiculously good orgasms, and I actually prefer the smaller size compared to the Premium, which now feels almost bulky. I would even go so far as to say that the Liberty is on par, if not better, than the We-Vibe Melt and Satisfyer Luxury, which are the leading products from the other major players in the suction world. This is because while these toys have a more intense suction, the Liberty has a better thuddy-feeling (a sensation similar to if someone were to tap on your suction toy during use that Womanizer has been excelling at lately), and out of the two sensations I prefer the thuddyness. Then, in regards to the different nozzles, I didn’t really feel a massive difference between the two, but ultimately I prefer the smaller option as it feels just slightly more intense for me. Finally, also worth mentioning is the toy’s nozzle-based light, which I found really helpful when locating my clit just prior to use.

Cleaning & Care

Cleaning the Liberty is easy. Just remove the silicone head, wash it in warm soapy water, and rinse. If the body of the toy is dirty too then the whole thing can be washed in the water as well since it is waterproof. Then leave these to air dry and reassemble, which is very easy since the nozzle has a small circle on it to indicate which way up it is supposed to be placed. Once dry you can then return the toy to its storage bag or just cover it with its magnetic case. Since the Liberty’s nozzle is made out of silicone ensure you don’t use silicone based lubricant with it. Furthermore, I have found prolonged use of the toy can make my clitoris quite sore the next day, so I wouldn’t recommend using it excessively if you are planning on having any rigorous sex or further masturbation within the next 24 hours.

Final Thoughts

The Womanizer Liberty is marketed as the perfect suction toy for travelling, and that it is. Its size and cover keeps it away from prying eyes, while its quiet suction ensures no one will hear it. What I did not expect from one of Womanizer’s cheapest offerings, however, was a toy that can easily compete with the best of what We-Vibe and Satisfyer have produced. I went into this review honestly just excited about the bold colours and the collaboration with one of my favourite singers, but I’m leaving it with an unexpected new favourite. While the Liberty by Lily Allen doesn’t quite compare to the Womanizer DUO or Premium, considering it’s over $100 less I didn’t expect it to. But the difference between these three toys does not feel like $100, as I could happily use the Liberty in place of the Premium, and I will be when I start travelling again (whenever that is). Plus, this means that for all the people out there eager to try a Womanizer but understandably put off by the high prices of the toys I’ve reviewed from them in the past, I finally have a cheaper option that not only can I vouch for, but that I can recommend wholeheartedly with the knowledge that you’re still going to be getting something really good.
