Lovense Lush 3 Review: I'm Not A Lush Over This One At All...

Video Review

Rantings of a Mad Woman!

My very first toy was a dinosaur shaped Monster Pub egg with a stiff tail that vibrated as much as the main bit did... I loved everything about it from the looks to the feel until it died and was replaced by one very similar to this. Though the tail was longer and way more flexible than that of the dinosaur it had some stimulating abilities about it as well. Both had the ability to be controlled manually or by app, which at first bothered me and made me feel weird, but eventually I came to see the value of the app control.

In a sense, I'm glad that these two toys were my first exposure to the world of sex toys... not keen on the circumstances that led to them coming into my life... but they were/are definitely perfect intro toys. They're discreet to wear, easy to travel with and store and require no muss or fuss to enjoy... simply insert, turn on and enjoy! No manual motions necessary, just good vibes.

By the time the second one had come along I was starting to feel a bit bold... I actually got a thrill wearing it when going to pick my partner up from work after he got it for me. I felt sexy, adventurous and kind of naughty, especially because I left my phone in full view with easy access so he could take control if he wanted. At the time I thought it was a super spontaneous and different way to spice things up... but that's not how it was treated... But I digress...

Despite my rollercoaster beginnings with them, I've grown fond of the eggs/bulbs that have entered my collection, to the point that they're essentially my favorite style of toy, which is why it's a bummer to say that of all the eggs I've encountered up to this one, I feel it's potentially my least favorite. It has the biggest hype, which weirdly puts me off more than it entices me; its price is insanely high for it to do nothing more than the others; the tail provides no stimulation; and it seems weaker than the others I've encountered. At least MotorBunny tried to justify the price of their G-Thang Bulb by having the video game gimmick! This one, I can't figure it out or why it's gotten as much hype as it had. The Monster Pub one and second one were purchased from Amazon for waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper and were way better than this one. Ridiculous!

Mini Summary!

Lovense's Lush 3 is an ordinary bulb/egg toy that's discreet to wear and easy to use. It has 7 preset features, 3 single vibrations and 4 patterns, that can be accessed by the single button located on the tail end of the device: simply hold the button to power the device on/off and press it to continuously cycle through the settings. If the settings aren't enough and reaching down is too far, fret no more as it's also capable of being controlled by the Lovense App! With a use time of 3hrs and 40mins, the good times don't have to end too early. Just make sure to let it charge for about 1.5hrs with its nifty little magnetic charger. The good times are also not limited to just the bedroom or dry public spaces, with the IPX7 rating things can get as wet and wild as you want!

It's available in the usual Lovense Pink for $239 normally and $119 on sale.

Packaging!

Much like I expressed in the Lapis and Nora reviews, I really appreciate the simplicity of this box design. It's yet another product I'd feel comfortable walking up to the counter with, especially because it's an egg and not an overtly phallic shaped device lol.

What's In The Box?!

Inside the package: the toy itself, a storage/travel pouch, a magnetic charger and a manual.

Once again I find the simplicity of the inner packaging appealing as it's laid out practically identical to Nora: simple foam cutout with holes for the toy and charger while the rest lay nicely underneath.

I'm floored and ecstatic that all of the toys in this recent goody box have come with storage/travel bags... It's normally one of my biggest complaints that one isn't provided and now I'm like 4 for 4 lol. Disappointed that Lovense isn't like We-Vibe though and willing to share an extra goody of sorts, but I'll take the bigger win of the pouch any day!

Back That App Up!

Lovense's app is super simple to use!

1. Simply take a picture of the QR code in the manual or on the back of the box and download the Lovense App.

2. Turn the device on by holding the top button for about 3 seconds.

3. Open the app and allow it to find your device, once it connects you're all set!

4. Make an account in order to use different features!

You can use a remote feature, save your own patterns for later use, give access to another person and chat while they take control, or sync it up to your favorite music!

There are also so many other features to be explored in this app:

1. Access patterns created by other users

2. Play roulette and connect with a stranger

3. Access 16 other apps/games in their gallery

4. Connect to your partner across the world

You can even have your toy sync and vibrate to:

1. Any nearby sound

2. The speed of the car you're a passenger in, Uber just got a lot more interesting... lol

3. Your favorite game

4. Your alarm clock settings

5. A Youtube video

The possibilities for pleasure are limitless!

How Did It Do?!

Information and operation: To power the device on/off simply hold the button on the tail for a few seconds and press it to cycle through the 7 presets. Or get funky and free and control it with the Lovense App!

First and foremost, the tail sits waaaay to high to be of use as a clitoral stimulator and has very little to no vibration sensation anyway. Kind of disappointed by this as I like an egg that can stimulate inside and out, and given the high price for this one you think they'd consider and include that feature... At least it stays true to the fact that it does "hug" the body and is discreet to wear... physically.

The motor on this thing sounds like a loud fridge hum and even seems to rattle, at least until the 3rd setting kicks in and settles the rattle a bit. The patterns all sound digitized and suuuuuuuuuuuuuck. The only saving grace for this egg are the 3 single vibrations and the app patterns made by other users.

I found it to be oddly weaker than other eggs and the sounds it made were just utterly ruinous for the experience. I don't know if I just got a dud or other ToyChat users are just blowing smoke as I can't figure out why it's getting the love and praise it is. I know the tail of the MotorBunny G-Thang Bulb didn't do anything either but the whole experience with that one, including the letdown of the controller haptics, was vastly better than this.

Would I reach for it again? Potentially... it wasn't hateful, but I have better eggs to reach for first.
