Double trouble purple wand - double ended dildo by Cal Exotics - review by Miss Jane

Since it’s firm, this dildo is good for thrusting; it's not hard like glass or steel dildos, so you can thrust to your heart's content.You can use it alone, have your partner use it on you, or put it between the two of you. I also found that the firmness was quite nice to orgasm around. It can be used either anally or vaginally.

This dildo is made of TPE, which is a durable, stiff material. Since it's porous, you should use a condom when sharing because it can't be fully sterilized. You should also use a condom if you use it anally (or *only* use it anally); you don't want to spread fecal germs around your already highly-prone-to-infection areas.

This dildo is smooth and doesn't require much lube if any. If you do need lube, it's compatible with both silicone and water-based lubes.

Each of the heads is different, so you can mix up your masturbation session or choose your favorite if you’re playing with a partner. One has a longer, tapered end and one has a rounded, shorter end. Both are nice, though the tapered end is easier to insert. The middle is slightly bowed; this is good for partner play, so you can both get a little G-spot action. It's also good for solo play, since it makes it slightly easier to hit your G-spot.

The curve I mentioned is so slight that you might not even notice it at first glance. However, if you put it on a flat surface, you will see that it does in fact have a slight bow to it.

I like the firmness of this toy, especially if it's going to be used with a partner. Some double-ended dildos end up being so floppy and shapeless that they're nearly impossible to use with two people, and not great for thrusting - but this one's nice and firm, and keeps its slightly curved shape. Even with the firmness, it's easy to bend the way you want it and is flexible. I tugged it around and it didn't break, crack, or look any different than it did the moment I took it out of the package.

Wash this toy with normal soap and water or toy cleaner to clean. I noticed that soap tended to get stuck easily between the bulges of the toy; make sure you rinse these especially well, because soap can irritate the urinary tract and give you an infection (if you're female) and will be most unpleasant anally (female or male).

TPE is compatible with silicone and water lubes, though you won't need much if any for this toy.

It attracts lint, fuzz, hair - anything soft and textured - so store it away from your fuzzy handcuffs, fibrous throw pillows, and cat.

I didn’t like the packaging. It was bright and non-sexual, but the shapes in the background made me think of birthday party décor or the packaging on a children’s toy. Also, the dildo was stuck to that background when I pulled it out. Since it's just a plastic shell, you could easily store the dildo it if you wanted. I personally wouldn't want to, because I like to keep my toys all organized and in prettier or more easily accessible storage.

It's a decent toy - it just didn't 'wow' me.

It was nice but not wow-worthy solo. When I use this with my (male) partner, I will post a follow-up review.
