Beautiful but not big enough!

I think this toy has a GREAT texture if you're into velvety silicone. Ella could work for some people, but I found it too pointy on the phallic end and the G-spot end. It won't be my only toy, but it could be good for beginners and good solo play. I think Lelo is a great company, so if Ella isn't your thing another toy from them could be a great addition to your collection!

Use

This is a small G-spot dildo with an interesting shape and a great texture. It's best for vaginal stimulation and for fans of silicone. The rose color is gorgeous, so although it's not my favorite toy because of its size and shape, it's certainly one of the classiest, prettiest, and best feeling. It came in a lovely box and I truly felt like I was experiencing luxury when I opened this toy!

I didn't have a ton of success with its G-spot capabilities, and I found the flatter end somewhat too pointy and uncomfortable for me. However, I found the flatter end to be a great handle and used the long end for penetration. Its penetration length is good for me (I've been told I have a somewhat deep vagina) but the end is pointy and sometimes rubbed against me in an uncomfortable way. It's super easy to clean and very aesthetically pleasing, so although it's not my favorite I don't regret getting it!

Material / Texture

My favorite part about this toy is the material. My favorite materials are glass and silicone, so the fact that Ella is 100% silicone is a major plus for me. I got the rose color and it is a very pretty deep pink/purple color. The silicone is so silky, and I can definitely tell why Lelo gets such positive reviews. The toy does not have a smell at all and Ella is very easy to clean. Silicone is nonporous and very safe to use. I use soap and water to clean this toy, and it wipes perfectly clean every time. However, if you wipe it off with a towel there are little fabric particles that can stick to Ella, so I would recommend air-drying. It only takes a tiny bit of lubricant to cover this toy which I appreciate as well.

The toy is pretty hard and won't break. It doesn't have any give if you squeeze it, but it does bend a bit in the middle (but not very much at all). I've definitely dropped it a couple times (bit of a clutz!) and it's not dented or bent at all.

Design / Shape / Size

Ella is 7" long and is 4" around at its widest point. It has about 5" of insertable length. I have pretty small hands and it was very easy to hold Ella on the flatter end. As for length, it was a good length, but I could have done with it being a bit longer (but, as I said, I am rather deep and prefer thicker and longer dildos). My major gripe with this is the pointy-ish end on the more phallic side. If I move it around too much or press in a certain way, I feel uncomfortable. However, the great texture still helps me to enjoy this toy. It is not totally round and has some slight ridges on the sides, which I actually like because they add some interest.

As for the G-spot end, it didn't really do anything for me to be honest (but I have some trouble with my G-spot sometimes, so I didn't expect much). However, if I used it lightly I could run it over my clit and that felt pretty good because I love silicone texture.

It's also a great travel toy because it doesn't contain any metal, is very compact and can fit in a corner of a suitcase if necessary.
    • Discreet look/design
    • Whimsical / artistic

Performance

I had some success with the dildo end of this and enjoyed pulling it in and out of myself because of the great texture. I didn't get off on it at all though because of the pointy uncomfortable end. However, my partner tried to use it on me and it was way too easy for him to hurt me with it because of its design and points. It would be good for solo stuff but I wouldn't recommend pushing it too hard into you, or you'll definitely feel the point on the end. For just a gorgeous dildo, though, and a super-pretty art piece, I actually recommend it!

Care and Maintenance

I LOVE caring for Ella! I'm such a fan of silicone and the velvety feeling is so soft and lovely! You can put this toy in the dishwasher, wash it with soap and water, boil it, or use wipes. So easy! I wash it with soap and water and let it air-dry before I put it away. I store it in the satin pouch it came with, which really adds to the feeling of luxury.

Experience

Overall I didn't have the best experience with the shape of this toy, but I think it depends on your shape and preference before saying yes or no to this toy. If you prefer toys that are a bit thinner/less long, then go for it. The flat end can be used for G-spot stimulation if you're into that, but I didn't have much success to that end. My partner loved the feeling of the toy, but we didn't have a lot of success using it together because if he turned it one way or another, or pushed too hard, it hurt me a bit. This won't be my only toy but it definitely wasn't a waste and I enjoy the texture very much.
