The Hismith Automatic Lube Launcher isn’t just a toy, it’s an experience. It takes something that’s usually fiddly and utilitarian, like refilling a syringe mid-scene, and replaces it with a gadget that keeps you immersed in the fantasy. The sleek design and whisper-quiet motor make it feel more like a kinky accessory than a piece of lab equipment, and the app control adds a wicked layer of unpredictability that manual methods can’t touch. That said, it’s not without quirks. The shot size is playful and rhythmic rather than overwhelming, which works brilliantly for edging and teasing but doesn’t quite deliver that one-and-done soaking that syringes excel at. Cleanup is straightforward, charging is painless, and honestly, I loved how much thought clearly went into making this feel intuitive to use both with and without a machine. My only real wish is for more control over flow intensity, because sometimes you want a light drizzle and sometimes you want a full-on storm. All in all, it’s a clever, well-made device that knows what it wants to be: a teasing, immersive lube launcher that keeps the scene flowing smoothly. It may not replace syringes completely, but as part of a messy play toolbox, it shines.

Of all the lubricants I've tried over the years, I always end up going back to System JO. Their lubes are luxuriously priced, but they're also really good lubes that are pH balanced and safe to use both vaginally & anally and come in a variety of flavors (in case that's your thing). As someone who doesn't drink much, I still really enjoyed the fun flavors of the Cocktails line from System JO, though I think I'm more likely to purchase other flavors in the future.

This is, without a doubt, a staple in my professional kit. It offers exceptional longevity and glide, maintaining a perfect, non-sticky slickness through the longest streams and hottest video calls. It is reliable, safe, and makes cleanup quick and easy. It’s a definite winner

Surprisingly Fun and Discreet – A Unique Experience! Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first got The Sexy Pot, but after giving it a try, I have to say, it’s a fun, playful, and surprisingly powerful little toy. The design is super discreet, which is something I really appreciate. It looks just like a cute little potted plant, making it easy to leave out in plain sight without raising any eyebrows. The pot itself is just for decoration, which adds to the playful aesthetic. If you’re looking for something fun, quirky, and effective, this is definitely worth trying. The design is playful yet practical, and the vibration settings offer a good variety. The fact that it blends in so well makes it a great option for those who prefer a discreet yet powerful toy. Definitely a conversation starter, but only if you want it to be!

Both of these tools from Extreme Restraints are strong, well-designed instruments — but they serve different roles in a power-play toolkit. The Beaded Anal Hook is about control, presence, and internal anchoring. It’s ideal when you want a constant, stable point of internal connection, and you don’t plan on swapping sizes. The Anal Hook Trainer with 3 Plugs is about growth, training, and endurance. It’s a long-term commitment to gradual progression, with the flexibility to start small and expand over time. If you’re building a serious repertoire of restraint and control tools, having both gives you maximum flexibility: you can anchor firmly when you need structure, or train gently when you want progression. In my experience, using them in tandem offers the deepest blend of physical sensation and psychological influence. One anchors the body — the other grows its capacity.

The Uberlube Travel Set is elegant, discreet, and remarkably versatile, transforming even brief sessions into immersive, controlled, and sensual experiences. From a Dominant’s perspective, it allows precision, guidance, and confidence in orchestrating pleasure. For partners, the silky texture and pleasurable glide amplify sensation, anticipation, and responsiveness. I encourage couples and curious explorers alike to use it liberally, experiment with application, and share experiences—whether at home or on the go. Its reusable case and luxurious formula make it ideal for discreet adventures, guided play, or spontaneous connection. Even small doses create maximized intimacy, controlled sensation, and shared anticipation, proving that thoughtful design and quality ingredients can elevate every moment of pleasure. This is a must-have travel companion for anyone who values elegance, discretion, and reliable performance in intimate settings, making even a 15 ml bottle a gateway to big, unforgettable sensations.

The Trojan Duet 2-in-1 Vibrating Massager + Ring definitely belongs in the luxury category of the toy section. The curved design with its soft-touch silicone surface makes it irresistible from the get-go. It’s not every day you come across a toy that focuses so intentionally on both partners' pleasure, and Trojan nailed it here. The toy features two ended play—on one end you will find a multispeed classic curved vibrator (perfect for internal and external stimulation) while on the other end you will see a multispeed ribbed vibrating ring (best for teasing practically all erogenous zones). While the size may feel a bit on the larger side for some, I found it perfect for both ends of the experience. Whether you’re exploring solo or with a partner, the vibrations—though subtle at first—build to deeply satisfying pulses and rumbles that hit just the right spots. The water-resistant design is perfect for pairing with water-based lube (just keep it out of the bath), and its firm yet flexible build ensures steady, seamless play no matter how you move. The toy is also rechargeable which means unlimited play. For anyone looking to combine the comfort of the familiar with an adventurous twist, this is a must-try. Trojan didn’t just make a toy here—they delivered a secret weapon for intimate connection.

Not to be biased or insensitive by any means, but it has to be said... This is "A Hippy's First Dildo"! I could easily see this device being handed out as an environmentally, sex-positive goodie bag item at an earth-friendly festival, and I genuinely think that would be pretty awesome. Especially if it came in a hemp or other ethically sourced material type bag! (wink wink, nudge nudge! Please include a storage pouch next batch!) The Blush Gaia Bullet is the "world's first sustainably made vibrator" and it sure as hell beats the Blush Lipstick any day. This environmentally friendly device uses two AA batteries (NOT included) and features an adjustable dial at the base of the battery cover with a 90º turn radius (not to be mistaken for a seam in the design >.>). The vibes are great for beginners but more than likely too weak for more experienced users or ones that just prefer a more intense vibe. It has no IPX rating, and is only considered to be splashproof so, I guess it's eco-friendly with water consumption too? ><" If the Rocks-Off SugarBoo, with its more intense vibes and settings, can claim to run for 3 hours on a single pair of batteries, I'd say this would last just as long, if not much longer since it's less intense overall. As long as you have a spare pair and a charger handy you can run as long as you'd like with very little down time! This is long enough and girthy enough to be used on its own, but small enough that it can be paired with another toy or used with your partner. I'd much rather be a relaxed, nap under a tree type girl than a dressed up night on the town one! Though I admittedly have desires to be both lol. That being said, I don't know that this would necessarily be a toy I'd reach for again any time soon just because I much prefer a bit more intense of a vibration than it can offer. I'm extremely happy that it's part of my collection though and wouldn't be against going back to it at all! Especially since I overcame my user error lol.

The Fun Factory Booty Femme is a versatile and beginner-friendly butt plug designed for use during penetrative play. Its unique shape ensures comfort and security, with a longer end that stays nestled between the cheeks, allowing for seamless play without interference. It's made from body-safe silicone, making it easy to clean and compatible with water-based lube.

As a big fan of sex grinders, I love Calypso by Paladin Pleasure Sculptors, or PPSculptors for short. Calypso is a merfolk vulva grinder with a lot of texture. It's great for pillow or thigh humpers and can be used by any anatomy! Pair with your preferred water-based lubricant, then hump & grind away. Pro tip: Use plenty of lube!

The Fun Factory LimbaFlex Small is a versatile, flexible dildo perfect for beginners and those exploring pegging or anal training. Its soft silicone, tapered design, and flexible body allow for precise stimulation, while the flared base makes it harness compatible. Though it has a slight drag, water-based lube enhances its smoothness, making it a great starter toy for various uses.

Although Cake Eater isn't the "licking" vibrator for me, that doesn't mean that it's not the one for you! The flicking tongue, paired with a good water based lube, is a really nice sensation on the clitoris and nipples (or any other external erogenous zone). I like that the icing on the cupcake also doubles as a grinding surface, as that made using the vibrator even more pleasurable for me. With 150 minutes worth of runtime, this little rechargeable vibrator is actually pretty impressive, especially given the price. It's affordable, comes with a nice storage box, and is discreetly sized. Overall, it's a good little toy!

I love my Lovense Hush 2 in the size medium. It has 1.75 inches of diameter to provide a good stretch and a powerful vibration motor to help you reach orgasm. It has a simple to use app with lots of features such as remote control links to send to a friend/partner, Control Roulette to connect with a random user and control each others toys, and you can sync different vibe patterns with the toy. You can also use the built-in vibe patterns without needing to connect the plug to the app. The Hush 2 is made of high quality body safe silicone and is recommended that people use with water based lube with it. Silicone based lube can cause damage to toys made of silicone I use my Hush 2 for an average of an hour, and it takes an estimated 90 minutes to charge. I love the fact that it uses a simple to connect magnetic charger, making charging easier. It also makes cleaning easier since there is no charging port to worry about messing up. The plug can be worn comfortably throughout the day. It is fun to give a friend control while you wear it for the day. The vibrations feel amazing against my prostate as it gets turned on. For cleaning you can use antibacterial soap and hot water. Do not boil the toy in water since the battery can be damaged, but the Hush 2 is IPX7 waterproof. The toy comes with the Lovense Hush 2 plug itself, the usb magnetic charging cable, and a small storage bag. For charging the toy comes with a usb cable but doesn't come with an ac adapter to plug the cable in, you can use a phone charger or charge from a computers usb port.

As a big fan of Twilight Meadow Creations, I was really excited to get Bjarkan to review! This big toy can be used in a variety of ways: as a pussy plug, a butt plug, or as a dildo! You could even grind on it too, if you wanted. While this toy was a bit too big for me, I used it repeatedly on my wife who loved it as a dildo more than as a butt plug. TMC is based in Sweden and make really beautiful fantasy sex toys. Bjarkan is no exception to that! It's based off a troll penis, and has a moderate level of texture. The blunt tip can make insertion a little challenging, so make sure you've got plenty of lube and patience. Cassie, my wife, says that anyone who is looking for a thick but short dildo should absolutely try Bjarkan out!

As far as penis sleeves go, this one takes the cake! (Literally!) It's a great pick for anyone looking to explore enhanced sensations without spending a fortune. While it lacks advanced features like vibrations, it offers a snug fit, jelly-like texture, and a supportive scrotum strap that not only keeps it in place but also delays orgasms, extending playtime—who wouldn’t want that? The ribbed or nubby patterns enhance friction during penetration, providing added stimulation for both the wearer and their partner, making it a win-win for shared pleasure. The fit also boosts the wearer’s size while offering gentle constriction to heighten sensations and help maintain a firmer erection. This sleeve proves that simplicity can be just as effective as high-tech options. Whether experimenting solo or with a partner, it’s a budget-friendly, fun way to spice things up. Just don’t forget the water-based lube to keep things smooth and comfortable—and ensure proper cleaning for repeated enjoyment!
