Design

This stroker has a somewhat unique look, but this is probably the most mild of Bad Dragon's offerings. It is supposed to be modeled after a water nymph, and the bright blue and shimmery coloring definitely gives it that fantasy vibe. The whole stroker is about 8 inches long, with a roughly 3 inch diameter, though the cross section is slightly oblong. The entrance has a small molded labia and a clit fixed slightly open. Across the body of the stroker it has gentle curve in the middle that makes it easier to hold when in use. You can get this stroker in almost any color, but the "natural" coloring is what I have here. The signature color scheme is a marbled white and blue, but there are a lot of other patterns or even a surprise option. It does not come with any kind of plastic casing like many other strokers (Fleshlight, Main Squeeze, etc.). If you want something in the sci-fi or fantasy realm, definitely take a look at Bad Dragon's other offerings which often have more bold design choices. I personally am not a huge fan of those, and so I wanted this more basic option, and for anyone else in the same boat as me they have a pink flesh colored option as well.
Experience

Unfortunately I wasn't a huge fan of how this stroker actually feels. The silicone they used while labeled as "ultra soft" just cannot compare to TPE, especially the formula that companies like Fleshlight use. This isn't a failing on Bad Dragon's part, silicone as a material just cannot be made that soft without falling apart. There is heavy texture on the inside which feels nice for a little bit, but quickly becomes overstimulating to the point of numbness. The first half of the stroker has a ridged spiral pattern followed by a wavy ridged section, with a slight indent between the two. It does have a bit more room internally which means it will work for people with more girth. Because there is no plastic casing you can squeeze slightly to make it tighter or for more texture. I found that covering the exit hole can also induce some suction which allowed for extra stimulation, and had the added bonus of cutting down on noise. Compared to other strokers I would say it is maybe a little bit quieter in use, but still by no means discreet.
Silicone is also quite a bit more dense, and therefore heavier than TPE. This means that for a long play session, it quickly becomes tiring to use even without the stimulation issue. The one benefit of that weight though is that it can feel a bit more realistic, and it has a bit of "bounce" between the weight and texture of the material.
You will definitely want a high quality water based lube with this toy, NOT a silicone or even hybrid option. Silicone based lubes can damage this toy because it is also silicone based.
Quality

While I do have complaints about some of the other aspects of this toy, quality is one area where it shines. It is made of a high quality silicone, with no obvious nicks or little tears, and the shimmery blue coloring is quite nice. Bad Dragon's toys are poured silicone so they are not all uniform, even the same color scheme might look slightly different between each toy, and there can be slight difference in texture. That said, any outright defects are not sold as regular toys, but rather go into their flop toys category at a discount instead of being discarded. I noticed some lines pop up on the underside after a couple uses, but they don't appear to be any kind of structural defect, and it's entirely possible I just didn't notice them when I first got the toy.
Materials and care

One of the main benefits of using a silicone toy over TPE is that is much easier to clean. Soap and warm water, or even soaking in a diluted bleach solution (and then rinsing) can be used to thoroughly sterilize the toy. Silicone is not porous like TPE and is therefore considered body safe. You will definitely want to ensure nothing is left inside the body of the stroker because bacteria and other nasty things can take hold. Because it's designed to stay slightly open, it dries much easier than other strokers in my experience, but you can still use a drying rod or pass a rolled up paper towel through to catch any residual moisture.
You will still want to be careful about nicking it with anything sharp, even fingernails, or stretching it too much, because it can start to tear. You should also try to keep it from contacting other toys, especially silicone ones, which can sometimes cause some damage. While Bad Dragon does offer warranties on it's other toys, the penetrable toys like these do NOT come with a warranty so you will want to be extra careful considering the high price tag.

Tenga Flip Zero Review
An overall great toy with a very unique design, but a couple unfortunate design choices.

Kiiroo Feel Pocket Stroker
It's definitely a "pocket" toy, it's quite compact, but also quite tight so not ideal for larger people. Unfortunately it seems to have some quality control issues also that make it difficult to recommend.

Satisfyer Men Vibration+
A nice alternative option compared to strokers which provides a very different sensation, but it might not be enough on its own to get some people over the edge.

Jane Wilde Main Squeeze Ultraskyn Stoker
A great stroker with nice stimulation throughout the different chambers, soft TPE, and a squeeze plate function if you need just a little extra sensation.

XSpaceCup XT18 Foldable Version Review
The XT-18 foldable version quick shot stroker from Xspacecup is a solid toy with a unique cowgirl simulation feature, handles for easier grip, and a collapsible design. However, with only a $20 difference between it and the superior XT-5, the XT-5 is recommended for its stronger motor, more settings, and longer stroke length.

Chastity Device by House of Denial Called "Steel JTS S236" Review
I like this cage, and the design of it did not disappoint. This is not a beginner cage as the locking mechanism is different from a standard cage. Im not sure how well it would keep someone secured if they were brave enough to wear over night

Rubjoy Review: The Realistic Blowjob Robot
This is the most realistic blowjob simulator I’ve tried yet. Instead of the generic up-and-down motions of a piston, the two servo motors provide a precise emulation of a head bobbing up and down along with those small human-like imperfections in motion or even deliberate left-right gyrations. That’s what you’re paying for with the Rubjoy, and if a realistic feeling motion is what you’re after, there is no better solution on the market right now. I highly recommend the Rubjoy if you’re looking for a realistic automated blowjob that can truly be used hands-free.

The Ring of Pleasure
The Durex Pleasure Ring is a simple, affordable way to enhance pleasure and prolong intimacy. Designed to maintain firmer erections for longer, it delivers on its promise of enhancing sensations for both partners. However, it’s not without limitations—its snug fit may not suit everyone, and the limited-use nature of the ring might deter eco-conscious buyers. That said, its ease of use, affordability, and effectiveness make it a fantastic choice for couples looking to add a little extra zing to their bedroom repertoire. In the end, it lives up to its promise as an affordable, entry-level sex aid, but it doesn’t quite exceed expectations for those seeking premium features or longevity.

Co-Starring With The Vanna Bardot Dopamine Ice Sleeve Fleshlight
The sight, sound, and feel of the Vanna Bardot Dopamine Ice Sleeve Fleshlight is an experience pretty much unmatched in the world of male masturbators. Based on the specific southernly dimensions of the half-French, half-Brazilian brunette hottie, this limited edition of the famous Fleshlight Girls porn star line. If you have never tried a Fleshlight, they are surely worth their reputation; if you have, Vanna gives you her own specific loving 'fit,' a uniquely wonderful feeling you really shouldn't pass up. Wonder no more why Vanna has won both AVN and XBIZ awards as you piston away inside her love canal, regulate airflow suction from the end cap of the hard-shell case (sold seperately) and fantasize about your cock even bigger than it will already grow inside this toy, by viewing it through the ‘ice’ magnifying see-thru sleeve of this expert jerker. The phthalate-free SuperSkin material Fleshlight makes all their sleeves from provides such a realistic feel you’ll easily imagine you’re costarring with Vanna, delivering the hardest and deepest fucking she has ever had. The sleeve really gives as good as it gets, so be ready to blast off pretty much from the moment you push all the way into the thing. But clean-up here is easy, so when you are ready to go again, so will be your Vanna Bardot Dopamine Ice Sleeve Fleshlight.

Sohimi Luxury Powerful Thrusting and Spinning Robot Pussy
The Sohimi Luxury Automatic Masturbator is a well-built, multi-functional toy with independent thrusting and rotating capabilities. Its powerful motor and durable design make it worth the price, especially with a discount. However, it’s quite large and the insert can be tricky to clean due to the fixed cage. It’s ideal for those seeking a robust, high-end masturbator but might not be the best option for users looking for something more compact or quiet.

No Syoumei 005 Zhang Xiao Yu: Unique texture!
This onahole is based on the popular Chinese nude model Zhang Xiao Yu, and it has some distinct features that set it apart from traditional male strokers. The sculpted buttcheeks, stomach, and the realistic color and texture are definitely noteworthy. While it’s not a 100% accurate replica of female anatomy, the design does a good job capturing a pleasing aesthetic, especially with the attention to the curves of the cheeks and the stomach. It’s definitely an interesting toy, offering a unique visual appeal, and for anyone curious, it’s worth checking out.

DYSO Impulsion Review: Quite the Machine for Quite the Session
DYSO calls their Impulsion a “next-generation sex toy.” It features a 360-degree rotation, nine vibration modes, and eight rotating, all using body-safe materials and cutting-edge tech. But this jerk-off machine, resembling the handle-end of a lightsaber, is a heavy-duty (and heavy to hold) masturbatory sleeve set in a case. With an hour-and-thirty-minute charging time (and the charge lasting almost as long), this sex toy will give you exactly what you want. It's extremely customizable as you can adjust the experience, for however long you last. Certainly priced on the high-end of things, but still not so sky-high as some other motorized masturbators are. One needs to remember that in the end, this toy from DYSO is providing a squishy masturbatory sleeve inside a heavy case that is turned, twisted, and powered by a motor. If this is the kind of thing you’re into, DYSO delivers cock-rumbling fun with the Impulsion.
