Design
This is a very entry-level toy so it's best to set expectations low. Lovehoney designed this to offer two different experiences. This stroker is not silicone and I don't think TPE. I'm not quite sure the material exactly but it's not very soft and it's not very elastic. Lovehoney lists the material as "soft plastic". Let's be real, it's not a premium toy like a Fleshlight. I didn't expect it to be anywhere near the material quality. However, I was intrigued by the reversible design offering two different sensations. Starting with the default (how it was shipped) sensation. The exterior of the stroker is a ribbed design. The interior is a unique design, Lovehoney describes it as "soft finger-like fronds". The end of the stroker has a small hole so that you can technically control a level of suction, but it's going to be all or none more than likely.
The interior length of the stroker comes in at around 5.5" while the opening diameter is 1". The "soft plastic" material does stretch but not as much as a softer TPE you'd commonly find with more expensive toys. So this might be a tight fit for some. I was surprised at my attempt to invert the toy for the reversible design, it wasn't so easy given the limited elasticity. It's certainly doable but it can be a bit of a struggle.
It's a relatively straight-forward design that speaks for itself. A stroker that will be quick to lube up and go to town.
Experience
OK, so how does it perform... With a water-based lubricant, it's easy enough to penetrate given the unsealed end design. The material does not stretch extremely easily but it does stretch, although it is a tighter fit (for anyone above average girth, this would be expected). I started with the "soft finger-like fronds" interior design. I was rather surprised that I felt practically no pleasure from this stroker. I didn't have high expectations but it literally did not feel good. Almost irritating. I was surprised as usually even with a inexpensive basic-designed toy you can still find some amount of pleasure, but this was just not enjoyable at all. I wouldn't say painful, but almost irritating is the best word to describe the experience.
Reversing the stroker didn't offer much pleasure either. At least the ribbed side wasn't irritating, but it was simply too basic of a design to offer much pleasure. A lot of this likely comes down to the material quality. It's not very soft or elastic. I'd rather use my hand at that point, and that probably says quite a bit!
Overall not a pleasant experience but again this is a very entry-level toy. This might be more enjoyable to someone with average to below-average girth. This is not a "one size fits all" type of toy.
Quality
I can't say this toy is high quality. It's entry-level and the material probably won't last very long. Given that it's not very elastic, it's going to be prone to rips/tears if paired along side someone with above average girth. Likely even from just inverting the toy on a regular basis. I didn't feel comfortable with the reversible design as it took a bit of force to invert it.
Price
This toy can be found in the range of $20-30. It's inexpensive and a low risk investment. You won't be spending a lot of money on a toy like this so don't feel bad if it doesn't offer a great experience.
Materials and care
Using a water-based lube is necessary with a non-silicone toy. It was easy enough to clean and dry given that the stroker can be inverted. Beyond that, there's not much else to worry about.
About This Author
KarlandLeniApr 21, 2025We’ve got a similar sleeve from another brand, also made of TPE — and yeah, they’re just not built to last, sadly. Still, great review! Even if the toy didn’t win us over, we appreciate the honest take 🥲

TENGA Spinner 01 Tetra, an affordable and easy to use toy
The TENGA Spinner Tetra provides a very affordable and pleasurable experience. While it might not be the highest quality, for the price it offers plenty of enjoyment and a gateway to exploring other toys. A great beginner toy for most with a slight twist. I don't see this toy having high marks for longevity but you do get what you pay for with this one. This is a low risk investment with high returns.

Utimi White Vibe: My New Favorite
The Utimi White Vibe offers an affordable automatic stroker toy while also delivering lots of pleasure. This toy seems to accommodate varying sizes without sacrificing the quality of the experience. While it might be a tad noisy, it's not too significant. The design offers an easy method for cleanup. Only the sleeve needs to be removed and it is incredibly simple to clean. Having the ability to turn the sleeve inside out makes cleaning and drying extremely simple. The different modes of thrusting and vibrations allows you to customize your experience. Anything from a slow and long build up to a quick orgasm, it's whatever you want and you get to choose how you get off. The price point is competitive assuming longevity is on par. The materials feel high quality and the motor doesn't appear to struggle once the unit is fully charged. This is a great option for anyone wanting to try out an automatic masturbator without having to invest significantly. It's become one of my favorites.

The Tantaly Brandi is a no-brainer choice for someone looking to dip their toes into the sex doll world. It's extremely affordable and low risk for trying out something new. The quality of experience and orgasm alone justifies the price. This is a unique experience worth trying out for a low cost.

Fleshlight Stamina Training Unit, perfect the edging experience
The Fleshlight Stamina Training Unit (STU) is a great toy to work on your edging game. The repetitive pattern on the inside makes it easier to control your orgasm. Fleshlight is a well-known brand at this point. You know what you're getting but it might not be the most affordable price compared to other brands.

UTIMI Mermaid: Underwater Fun with Rotation and Suction!
The UTIMI Mermaid is a fun toy that mixes rotation and suction into one waterproof package. Using this toy in the bath is probably one of the most relaxing things you can do to unwind. The toy features delicately placed ridges and a "tongue" to offer you a truly unique sensation. While you can't really stroke with this toy, it'll still bring you to orgasm through intense suction and rotation. If you prefer a stroker, then I would recommend looking elsewhere. If you want something more akin to a relaxing blowjob, then go with this toy.

Fleshlight's Vanna Bardot Dopamine Review – Pure Pleasure Overload 🚀
Buckle Up, This One Doesn't Play Nice Some Fleshlights are gentle, teasing, and let you ease into pleasure. Dopamine? Nah, this thing grabs you from the start, locks you in, and doesn’t let go until it’s drained you completely. You want a relaxed, slow session? Look elsewhere. But if you're after intensity, overstimulation, and the kind of orgasm that leaves you questioning your life choices for a solid minute afterward? Well, my friend, you’ve come to the right place. 😏 This Fleshlight is one of the tightest, strongest, and most intense sleeves out there, and there’s a reason it’s been #1 on FleshAssist for so long. It’s relentless in the best way possible - great for stamina training, brutal for casual play, and an absolute beast if you crank up the suction. It’s not perfect - the drying time is ridiculous, and the intensity can make longer sessions a challenge. But damn, when it’s good, it’s really good. So, if you’re ready for a Fleshlight that’s going to work you over and leave you wrecked (in the best way), then Dopamine is your new best friend. Let's get straight into it. 😉

Hello Cake Oral Stroker review: Pocket-sized and Pleasurable
The Oral stroker is a compact, stealthy gadget that’s perfect for both solo missions and partner co-op. I gave it a spin on my own and, honestly, it was surprisingly effective, especially for the cost. The material does get a bit sticky after a wash, but if you let it air dry and hit it with some renewal powder, it shouldn’t be too bad.

Tenga Puffy Latte Brown
The Tenga Puffy is a unique manual masturbator with a soft outer case. It is a little bit bulky for my tastes and I am still undecided on whether or not I want to keep this in my personal collection but if you don't mind the bulkiness and want a high quality product then I recommend this for you.

Autoblow AI Ultra Review
The Autoblow AI Ultra is a chunky little machine which is definitely not something you’d leave out if guests are coming over. But it feels really solid and well made. The sleeve is soft and has a decent amount of texture. It’s a bit loud when it’s running, but honestly, once you’re in the zone, you stop noticing. You can sync it with videos which ends up being kind of amazing when it actually matches the action. However, the Autoblow AI Ultra takes a bit to clean, but nothing terrible, simply pull out the sleeve, wash it, and let it dry. You have to lube up quite a bit for it to feel good, but again, not a big deal. Setup is pretty simple: plug it in (yes, it needs to be plugged in, no batteries), insert the sleeve, lube up, and pick a mode. There are several blowjob "styles" you can choose from like slow and teasing to fast and deep. Honestly, the variety is impressive, you don’t feel like it’s just doing the same motion over and over. Although most of the time I do use funscripts while using the product. The big buttons make the Autoblow AI Ultra really easy to use and enjoy.

Lovense Solace Pro Review - Has AI gone too far? Not yet.
The Lovense Solace Pro is an amazing toy that I would recommend to anyone looking to take things to the next level with their sex toys. This toy does almost everything right: it's simple to use, incorporates some pretty advanced AI technology, and most importantly, it feels amazing. While I would recommend this toy to anyone who has a penis, there are some shortcomings, specifically its enjoyability in certain situations and the AI sync function. But overall, this is my new favorite sex toy and there's a high chance that it'll be yours, too.
