Visually this product doesn't seem to have much for flaws. It's comparable to other toys on the market at a similar size. Once you feel the material, however, it does feel a bit firmer than other sleeves available. It's certainly soft but it doesn't feel as elastic as Fleshlight's sleeves. The case is different as it's a thinner material that allows you to compress the sleeve. This might be useful for some, but given the tight canal I don't know that further compression will do any favors for those already filling the space. The end cap has a plastic slider that allows you to control the suction. Overall it's a very comparable size to a full sized Fleshlight. Design-wise, it has its differences.
The very first thing I noticed was the tightness of this sleeve. This was not designed to handle above average girth. I had to ensure I was very well lubricated just to penetrate it. Once inside it was certainly pleasurable but it required occasional reapplication of lube. I was also constantly fighting with it pushing me back out. Don't get me wrong, it still felt great but it wasn't completely enjoyable given the effort just to stay inside of it. The end cap didn't seem to work well either. I wasn't able to create complete suction with the slider on the end cap closed. It still let air through. So that feature didn't seem designed well. Oddly enough it made more noise with the end cap on. Once I removed the end cap it was practically silent. The opposite of what I've found with other similar toys.
Overall it still brought me to orgasm (the tightness maybe played a role in that) but it wasn't completely comfortable given how tight it was and the firmness of the sleeve. If this sleeve material was not as firm, the tightness might not have been as much of an issue. The sleeve having a small diameter canal and a more firm material makes this toy geared more for smaller girth. It does not expand well to accommodate larger sizes (length might not be as much of an issue though).
The sleeve material seems like very generic TPE and it has a bit of an odor to it. The firmness of the material is not as inviting, I found it to not be as elastic as other brands. Given that the end cap slider didn't really create much suction with the slider closed, I'd say I was somewhat disappointed with the quality. Those with average to below average girth might not run into any many issues with the tightness and firmness of the sleeve. The fact that not all of the features work correctly leads me to think it's not going to be a product that holds up well over time.
This can be found for an affordable price of around $25-40 depending on where you purchase it. For the quality and experience I'd say it's on par with the price point. You're not getting an incredible value but you are getting a very affordable toy with some caveats.
Given the narrow diameter of the sleeve opening it can make it a bit more tedious to clean but it was overall comparable to other toys with a similar design. Rinsing it under a faucet with cold water for a good 30 seconds or more will help keep it clean. Drying is likely best to use a drying stick inserted on each end. Using a water based lubricant is definitely a requirement. Best to avoid any other type of lube or it could damage the sleeve material.
