First Impressions
I really wasn't sure what to expect
when I ordered this toy, I knew it
was for anal play and from the pictures
I'd seen I expected a butt plug. I
was happy to see when it arrived it
consisted of a little more than just
a butt plug. This nicely packaged
anal toy is basically an anal plug
on a flexible stick and I could see
endless possibilities for some fun.
I
hadn't realized when I ordered this
it was waterproof which in my book
is always a plus and adds to the versatility
of this type of toy as shower/water
play is something that I've personally
always enjoyed.
The
first thing I noticed when I took
this toy out of the package however
was a really heavy odor. While it
wasn't an unpleasant smell by any
stretch of the imagination, it was
really strong and to some extent off
putting. I tried to abate the smell
a little before I test drove the flex-a-pleasure
by washing it with soap and water
but the smell persisted, no matter
how hard I washed it.
This
toy actually comes complete with batteries
which was a definite pro as I'm one
of those who no matter how big my
supply I never seem to have the right
one for the right toy and there is
nothing more frustrating than having
a toy but no batteries when you get
the urge to do some research... This
toy take 2N batteries and I'm pretty
sure they are not a type that many
of us keep in our emergency stash,
so the manufacture including them
made a lot of sense.
This
toy consists of a flexible wand that
at one end contains a vibrating anal
plug while the other end houses the
battery compartment and control. I
was pleasantly surprised to discover
the vibrations where variable and
the unit itself was quiet when in
operation. The vibrations traveled
quite well along the wand before reaching
the plug itself and because the wand
was flexible using the controller
was relatively easy.
Of
course the acid test is would my new
flexible friend be able to please
me or not.
Solo
Play
So after applying an ample dose of
lubricant to the right spots I tried
my new found friend out. After a little
clitoral play with the plug end of
this teaser I was ready for something
more and this took the form of anal
play. The plug is not small at 3.75
tall with a diameter of 1.5"
but it's definitely not the largest
I've used and some encouragement from
my brain the plug began to hit the
spot.
The
wand itself measures in at 5.25
which is an ideal size, allowing me
to bend the wand into a position where
I could comfortable reach the controller
and add some vibrations to the mix.
I've never used a vibrating anal plug
before and I have to say I was impressed,
the vibrations took my anal experience
to a whole new level. I'm not sure
why I surprised by this as the rectum
is packed full of nerve endings, but
at least it was a pleasant surprise.
I
have to say that this type of vibration
was not enough to take me over the
edge and I still needed some clitioral
stimulation, which was easy as the
controller doubled as a bullet vibrator.
The only drawback with using the flex-a-pleasure
this way was it limited the positions
I could enjoy my solo play in.
I've
since used the flex-a-pleasure in
the bath tub and it's definitely waterproof
I'm happy to report.
What's
It All Add Up To?
I like the Flex-A-pleasure as a whole
item but there were several things
that have prevented me from using
it on a regular basis. The smell I
first encountered still lingers despite
many uses and for me it's off putting.
The last thing I want to smell while
I'm self pleasuring is rubber.
While
the flexible wand on the surface seems
like a good idea, I soon discovered
it actually limited the amount of
different positions that I could use
it in and actually be comfortable.
Comfort is something that is important
to me, especially when it comes to
anal play, and I suspect the same
is true for many other women.
If
you're used to the more tradition
butt plug that allows you to go about
your daily work while it's inserted,
this is not going to cut the mustard,
as hiding the flexible controller
would be nigh on impossible. I did
like the added sensations that the
vibrations gave but the wand, while
flexible, simply wasn't flexible enough
for me.
For
me the flex-a-pleasure is a toy that
I occasionally use nowadays. It's
not a staple of my solo repertoire
and likely never will be. If I could
find a way to get rid of the rubber
like odor I would probably be more
likely to get this out of the toy
chest more often.
