Feeling a wee bit adventurous?
If you're new to anal stimulation, or looking to try it for the first time, these would be good! If you're not such a newbie, look elsewhere. Skinny fingers recommended.Published: September 22, 2010
Pros:
Nice material, size variation, easily cleaned.
Cons:
Too small, too tight on the finger.
This set includes three explorers made of silicone with a stretchy loop, intended to be worn on a finger. These silicone anal explorers would be perfect for a novice who is interested in exploring anal play. Because they come in three sizes, you can start out with something that is fairly small and work your way up. They are designed to fit over a finger, which allows for complete control of penetration and movement. Because they do not have a flared base, they must be worn on a finger to be safe.
The silicone is very smooth and flexible. Although the finger hole is stretchy, they are a bit too small to be comfortable. This wasn’t much of a problem for me, since I have small hands, but it might make using them uncomfortable for someone with larger hands.
The kit includes three sizes, with diameters of 5/8", 3/4" and 7/8" which is about a range of a pinkie finger to a thumb. They range in insertable length, the smallest at 2" and the largest at 3". I think that this range would allow for someone to start off with something that is comfortable and to expand their horizons, so to speak, as desired.
Although there are three sizes, these probably aren’t going to be enough for someone who is experienced with anal play or for the more adventurous. However, if you're interested in adding something new to your sexual repertoire and haven't tried anal stimulation, these would be a good introduction.
Because these are made of silicone, a water-based lubricant is a must as silicone based lubricants will degrade the material. Because they are made of silicone, they can easily be disinfected by boiling or washed with warm water and antibacterial soap. The silicone is also safe to heat or cool, allowing for temperature play. Although silicone is dishwasher safe, I wouldn't recommend it with these toys because they are so small.

Experience
I wasn't impressed with these products. I knew right off the bat that these are intended for those relatively inexperienced with anal play but the fact that there were three size options gave me a little bit of hope. However, these just didn't work for me. If you already know that you like anal stimulation, these might not be the best choice. If you're looking to try something new, though, these might be a good choice!
I do not like how tight the finger holes are. I'm female and have relatively small hands and I was concerned that my fingertip was going to go numb. It was actually a bit painful. I had hoped that my partner and I would be able to use these during sex, but since he had big hands, I know that these would never work on his finger.

Quote: Why are these and products like these on Eden if they're not available for purchase?There are multiple reasons why a product can be listed as not available for purchase:
1.)These products just haven't been stocked yet.
2.)For some items Eden waits to see reviewer feedback before they decide to stock a product.
3.)Some products that are assigned as description reviews aren't available for purchase until the description review has been published.
4.)Certain products have a particular release date and they can't be sold before then.
Hope that helps :) -
I have had items like these these on my wish list since I signed up with EF, so like a year? I have recently inquired about them and have yet to get a response. :(

Nice review!
That's a shame they're so tight and small.
