Hottie - dildo discontinued by Happy Valley - review by caffeinated

The Hottie is best, in my experience, for vaginal penetration and for teasing the vulva (including the clitoris). I have also had a lot of fun wearing the Hottie in a harness (not for any functional purpose, just for the dress-up fun of it). It is easy to manipulate, and while G-spot stimulation wasn't especially focused for me, it was still present.

The Hottie is made of silicone and has no noticeable smell. Its silicone is relatively unyielding upon insertion, but it is forgiving enough to be comfortable (if you like the size). The silicone has a slight matte finish which I did not experience firsthand, since I used a condom on it to make cleanup easier. The underside of the base is the only part that is glossy.

I really like the simplistic-but-realistic design of the Hottie. It is 5 inches in circumference, which I think is my upper limit. The stretch was pleasant once the initial vaginal insertion took place, but there were moments where it was less than comfortable. This was my first dildo ever, so only brave beginners should attempt this ride. The Hottie is not particularly discreet (it IS a large, blue phallic object), so keep that in mind if you want to travel with it.

I found nothing wrong with the Hottie, apart from its somewhat large size (which is a personal opinion). It is silicone, which means that it is safe and easy to clean (soap and water, dishwasher, or boiling!). Its color is gorgeous. I love wearing it in a harness and just doing homework in my room with it on. It is very harness-compatible and fits perfectly in an O-ring with minimal flopping-about. It's a lot of fun to hang out with some of my friends in their dorm rooms and mess around, just poking them with it and enjoying the novelty of being a girl with a beautiful, blue penis.

Being silicone, the Hottie is very easy to care for. For cleaning, you can use soap and water. If you want to sterilize, you can run it through the dishwasher on the top rack or boil it in water. Water-based lubes are my recommendation with the Hottie. Whatever you do, don't use silicone-based lubes, as they will destroy silicone toys. Don't let such a gorgeous toy suffer such a tragic end! I just keep the Hottie in my sock/underwear drawer, and it doesn't seem to pick up too much lint there. It is a bit big, so it's not easy to store in a box or small drawer. Apart from that, storage isn't a problem.
