Bitch impressions paddle by Sportsheets - review by KrissyNovacaine

This is a small leather slapper that will be perfect for those just starting out with impact play or humiliation. This slapper is not one that will do a heavy amount of damage which is what makes it perfect for newer kinksters or those that aren't masochistic.

This paddle is also extremely portable, so it would be great for kinkier folks who travel because it doesn't take up a ton of room when space may be limited.

All of that being said, I would not recommend this for anyone who is more experienced with impact play. It doesn't actually have a lot of bite, nor does it feel like it will hold up over more extensive use.

This slapper can be use on just about any part of the body. You just want to avoid the head and anywhere that organs are unprotected by the rib cage.

This is made from a very cheap leather predominantly. The leather scratches easily and isn't very remarkable to the touch. I own leather toys that are blissfully soft. This does not compare at all to them. This is some of the cheapest leather I have ever felt.

The slapper is two pieces of leather with a red piece of paper between them. The two pieces of leather are uneven at then end. This part of the paddle is only about 5". The handle is the remaining 7" of this. I was actually surprised when I received it at how small it was. For me, there was nothing remotely intimidating about this.

The cut outs are rough and uneven. There are jags from the cutting that are left with little bits still hanging off. It looks really ugly when you are close to it. It's much less noticeable from a distance.

The handle of the slapper is made from the two pieces of leather sewn together with a piece of plastic in between. Used correctly, this should hold up fairly wheel, but I worry if this was to get stepped on. I think in that case, this would easily be broken.

This was a disappointment for us. Our combined experience with BDSM is over 20 years. When it comes to toys, we expected more then this offered for what this cost.

When we do impact play, we expect marks. We look for pretty shades of purple. This barely leaves pink on me. It is possible to leave the impression, but only with the exact right smack on a large fleshy area. We were hoping to use this with humiliation play, but it's too unpredictable for us which makes it more frustrating then erotic.

Newer kinksters will probably be satisfied with the bit of pink sting that this can dish out, but it is not enough for us.

This can be stored any where as long as it is cool, dry, and our of direct sunlight. To clean, the best option is a leather cleaner. Just make sure you don't get the paper wet.

Packaging for this was basically nonexistent. There is a nylon cord laced through the metal grommet on the end of the handle with a paper tag on it. One side of the tag has a bare butt being spanked with a paddle. The other side is just legal stuff. Pretty basic.
