The Lovense Gush will leave you leaking!

The Gush is packaged neatly like a smartphone. It's got pretty tough cardboard with high quality photo print and pictures of the device and came shrink-wrapped like a new electronic device. It does say "Sex Tech" on the box though. Nevertheless, the box is packed neatly- great unboxing experience.

It looks like a sex toy. It's teal colour is subdued and unique, I like it because it's not too loud. It's round and contoured shape makes it really easy to hold and stroke with. Dimensions: 3.39 inches Long x 2.05 inches Wide with 1.38 inches of insertable diamter Materials: - Silicone Insertable sleeve and wings - ABS plastic back The Gush is smooth with minor ridges in the insertable portion of the toy. The interlocking "wings" are soft to the touch and beveled with rounded edges that are stretchy and accommodating of most sizes as long as you're not too girthy. The Gush has 1 button to power on and cycle through patterns on the left side where your index your right hand's index finger and ring finger naturally lie (sorry left-handed users!). The top side has a tapered contour to accommodate the glans conical shape if you want to place the Gush directly under the Glans, pretty thoughtful.

The Lovense Gush is a premium priced toy. The build quality and finish of the Gush is top notch. It's all smooth Silicone, no seams or burs, the plastic module at the back is smooth and adheres well to the silicone and the Gush's contoured shape. There's no residual adhesive/glue or rough edges or gaps that give you any concern of the toy falling apart. The Gush is not too heavy but has a nice weight to it. It's light enough to hang off my cock while vibrating with the wings hold comfortably to my member, but it's definitely not flimsy feeling, especially when you open up the "Wings". They form right back into place with 0 creasing or tears- this is with 8 months of use at least twice a week. The battery doesn't degrade much either after 8 months of use- so that's super promising for an expensive toy that it will last at least another year!

Just to preface, I was cross shopping the Gush and Hot Octopuss toys based on their similar design and shapes. Despite hearing the rave reviews for the Hot Octopuss, I picked the Gush for it's quieter operation and extensive app featuresets because that mattered more to me YMMV. == In Use== Using the Gush, I quickly learned that it's not going to make you orgasm right away, it's more of a teasing, "slow burn" toy meant to build excitement and anticipation up until you come. Don't get me wrong, this toy on the medium level or the "Firecracker" or "Earthquake" patterns leaves eaves you leaking and you cant get over the edge-but it takes some time. The stroking experience is OK with a little lube- but it can get messy quickly, being an open ended stroker. Just have some tissues handy. I mostly enjoyed using this toy with it strapped to my cock with the included straps while sitting at my computer, watching my favorite scenes, TV or in bed while having it on. It gives you enough pleasure that you feel compelled to finish (ejaculate) either using your hands or via turning it the vibration up to a higher setting- so that's a win! This toy is ideal for fun for edging sessions given it's moderate intensity and customizability. The Gush is also fun to wear it while working at home if you want to live dangerously. On lower intensities, it's also quiet enough to be used in public if you have the wits for it. One standout feature I really liked was the Vibemate app's ability to play custom patterns from other users and the AI Video Sync that allows you to wear the Gush and watch your favorite videos while feeling some feedback based on the action in the video like penetration. It's great for a hands-free orgasm. The variance in patterns is OK but it the intensity can be dialed back so you don't get caught off-guard. ==Things I didn't Like== - The Gush gets fairly loud on the High Setting - The magnetic charger can easily get dislodge and prevents charging (weak magnet) - Stimulation is OK unless you trade-off noise and crank up the vibration == Key Value Propositions== The Gush It can get you over the edge with it's decent vibrations and cool patterns, to me the key value proposition that sets it apart from other similar products like the Hot Octopuss is the relative quietness at moderate levels and the extensive customization and app connectivity: - The preset Low, Medium and High settings are adjustable (allowing it to be a stealth toy) - The mobile app "Remote" app allows play with a partner - "Vibemate" app that allows you to connect to a PC/Mac/Android to play custom patterns - A.I Video Sync keeps things fresh and entertaining with semi-unpredictable patterns - Trophy App allow chatting and connecting with others to control or be-controlled in real-time It's not super powerful but strong enough for beginner users, couples play and even public play as it's fairly quiet on low to moderate levels. I am happy with my purchase.

The Gush is super easy to clean with mild soap or toy cleaner. It's open-ended design makes it easy to rinse and dry. The included lint-free bag is nice to store the toy and it's charger so it doesn't get damaged or collect dust.

Priced at 119 USD, the Gush is a premium-ish toy that offers a lot of smart, app controlled features. This is a fair price to me but I like smart app controls and the Video AI sync capability. - It is rather pricey if you're not using the smart app features If this toy interests you, the good news is that the Gush goes on sale quite often, so be patient if you want to experience the toy and save a couple bucks.
