What About Bob?

I’ve tried a lot of Lelo products, with mixed results. I moan for Mona, but Ina exasperates me. Mia is the cat’s meow, while Gigi is moderately enjoyable. Billy is the bomb. But, what about Bob? Here was a plug that looked simple yet intriguing, and I was thrilled when Babeland.com sent this to me for review.

Bob arrives in the standard Lelo packaging. The outer box is black, and imprinted with Lelo Homme on the front. The sides and back give some information about the product. Inside is the black Lelo box which contains Bob, a white satin storage pouch, an instruction manual and small pamphlets about Lelo’s 1 year and 10 year guarantees.

So, what about Bob? I requested Bob in navy, and he’s a beautiful deep matte blue, soft and smooth to the touch with very little drag. Bob is small, just 5” long overall, gently curved, with an insertable length of 3 1/2″. He is just 1” in diameter at his widest point. His tip is gently pointed, and after ballooning to this maximum at about 1 3/4″ down his body, Bob narrows into just 3/8” on his neck. Bob is firm, but his neck is very flexible.

Below the neck, Bob sports a ring about 1 1/4″ in diameter. The ring is almost 1” wide inside, and large enough to slip a finger through to control Bob and also allow for easy insertion and removal.

Bob is designed to be a prostate massager, but he works just fine if you don’t have a prostate. He’s easy to insert and feels filling, even with his small diameter. He stays in place and doesn’t slip out due to the narrowness of his neck, and his base (handle) fits comfortably between butt cheeks and makes him suitable to wear for extended periods of time, whether in or out of the house.

Bob is made of silicone, so he’s scentless, phthalates free and nonporous. He’s easy to clean with warm water and antibacterial soap, and he can also be boiled on the stove or run through the dishwasher on the top rack to sanitize him. Since Bob is silicone, only water-based lubricants are safe to use. He can be stored in his storage bag or in the box he comes in.

So, did Bob work?
I am so glad I got Bob, and wish I would have found him sooner! I love his size – he’s easy to insert and a great way to prep for something larger. His handle makes him comfortable to wear for extended periods, and he’s not noticeable under tight pants. The way his neck narrows also keeps him from falling out when I wear him out under a skirt.

I love Bob’s handle ring. It helps some in insertion, but makes him a lot easier to remove than grasping a flat base. It’s also useful for my husband, who can slip a finger through and gently tug on Bob, which feels oh so good.

Bob is a wonderful plug, and a great one to consider if you’re looking for a small, yet effective, and comfortable anal toy. Thank you to Babeland.com for sending him to me for free to review! If you’d like to experience Bob for yourself, you can buy him at Babeland.com . You won’t regret it!

Flirt With Me

G-spot vibrators? Can be a lot of fun. Most of my favorite vibrators, although not all, are great for g-spot stimulation. Waterproof g-spot vibrators? Even better. So I was happy to get the Flirty G vibrator from Good Vibrations to review, to see if this would be a good addition to my collection.

The Flirty G comes in simple packaging. The plastic bag can be resealed for storage, and protects the toy while not in use.

The color of this toy is gorgeous. Blue is one of my favorite toy colors, and the Flirty G is a vibrant, deep turquoise (darker than in these pictures). It’s made of TPR and has no scent right out of the packaging. The surface is somewhat sticky and will pick up lint and hair like a magnet, so you’ll want to wash this one both before and after use. It can be cleaned with warm water and antibacterial soap, or you can use a toy cleaner. Water-based lubricants are safe to use.

The toy is actually a “sleeve”, about 5 1/2″ long, that fits over a vibrator (the Flirty G is 7 1/2” long altogether). The top, which is about 3 1/2″ long is soft and squishy, and incredibly flexible. The bottom 2” of the sleeve fit tightly over the plastic vibrator underneath. This top part can be removed by rolling the sleeve upwards and gently pulling the vibrator out. It’s just as easy to put back on the vibrator, so you can use this with or without the sleeve, and you can also remove the sleeve for easier cleaning. Just make sure that the inside of the sleeve is dry before putting it back on the vibrator.

The insertable portion has a flat head about 1 1/2″ long and 1” wide, meant to stimulate the g-spot. It sits atop a thin, flexible neck before attaching to the clitoral scoop, which is covered with tiny, flexible nubs.

The base is separated by a silver band and is plastic in the same lovely blue as the sleeve. Turning the base 1/4 of a turn counterclockwise reveals the battery compartment which holds 2 AAA batteries. The direction is clearly labeled. An O-ring sits under the threads to ensure water doesn’t get in when using this in the shower or bath.

On the bottom of the base is a white button which turns the Flirty G on and allows you to cycle through 9 functions:

– low steady vibration
– medium steady vibration
– high steady vibration
– 4 pulses, pause, repeat
– 2 long and a really long pulse, pause, repeat
– 3 short and 1 long pulse, repeats
– long pulses
– 5 short and one medium pulse, repeats
– 5 pulses, with the last two slightly longer than the first 3, repeats
– off

The Flirty G is fairly quiet, although a bit louder in the water. It probably won’t be heard if you’ve got some background ambience going on. The vibrations are moderate and are strongest in the clitoral scoop, although they can be felt through the entire toy.

So, Did It Work? I like the idea of this vibrator, but the sleeve didn’t work well for me. The tip and the shaft of the insertable portion were too flexible, and didn’t allow me to get the pressure on my g-spot that I need. The scoop was nice and I did like the nubs, but it could have been a bit longer for ideal stimulation. I also wish this had a dedicated off button. There are a lot of patterns to cycle through to turn this off in a hurry!

I do like that the sleeve is removable, and the vibrator alone was good during foreplay for clitoral stimulation. While it wasn’t strong enough for me to orgasm, it was strong enough to turn me on.

You’ll like the Flirty G if you don’t need very firm pressure on your g-spot, and prefer moderate vibratons.

Thank you to Good Vibrations for sending the Flirty G to me for free to review! If you’d like to purchase one of your own, you can pick one up at GoodVibes.com .

Giant Crayons Can Be Fun!

I love anal play. And while I don’t have too much trouble going up 1/4” to a 1 1/2” diameter with a plug, sometimes this is too much when I want to use a dildo. The in between size can be hard to track down. I had a toy ages ago that was the perfect size, but I hated the jelly material. So I was excited when I found the Platinum Silicone Tool at EdenFantasys – the toy I used to have, but new and improved!

The Tool comes in a blue and black box with the toy visible through the front window. The back of the box has some product information, and warranty info and product registration can be done on the Doc Johnson site.

The dildo itself is a beautiful shade of cornflower blue (like the crayon)– soft and shimmery and a bit sparkly. In fact it even resembles a giant crayon without its label. The surface is matte with a bit of drag to the touch, and completely seamless.

Firm enough for insertion, the Tool is also flexible enough to be bent in half and is squishy but not tacky to the touch. It’s a bit too flexible for hard thrusting but it works well for more gentle action.

The Tool is 7” long, with 6” being insertable. The tip of the Tool is blunt and only 5/8” wide. It tapers out to the maximum shaft width of 1 3/8”. The base widens in 2 stages, up to a maximum of 2” diameter across the bottom of the toy. It’s suitable for both vaginal and anal play, but if you plan to use it both ways a condom should be used.

Made of silicone, the Tool has no scent, and it’s non-porous, latex-free and hypoallergenic. The surface does tend to pick up lint, stray hair, and other materials easily, so it should be cleaned both before and after use with antibacterial soap and warm water. You can also run this through the dishwasher on the top rack or boil it on the stove to sanitize it. Only water-based lubricants are safe to use.

So, Did It Work? I really like the Tool for an anal dildo. It allows me to go up in size more gradually during anal play and is much more comfortable than going straight from 1 1/4″ to 1 1/2″. The tip is easy to insert, and I love the flexibility and overall squishiness of this toy. While I wish it was just a bit firmer, it’s firm enough to gently thrust with, and it’s a good warm-up to a larger size.

My partner liked the size of the base on the Tool, and he found it easy to hold on to while using this on me. We also thought this might be a good toy to use in the Liberator Wing. It didn’t work too well when trying to slide it between the cover and the Wing body, but it was flexible enough to set on top of the Wing and use for double penetration.

The Tool is a great tool for anal play, and reasonably priced. I got mine at EdenFantasys, and you’d like to try it out, you can purchase your Tool from them by clicking the widget below.
