Hottie - strap-on dildo by Happy Valley - review by ambitious1

This is a nice firm dildo, about as firm a silicone dildo as you will find. It is a strap-on dildo and fits within an o-ring harness easily. As far as who can use it, the answer is just about anyone. It is apt to both anal and vaginal use, and because of its base it can be easily grasped to use as a stand alone dildo if a harness eludes you.

It also comes with the ability to insert a vibe into the dildo itself, this allowing the dildo to vibrate. Most bullet vibes will fit into it, however, anything out of the ordinary in size may not. The vibrations are a nice addition and definitely add to the experience, however it gets weaker towards the tip of the dildo.

The material is made from a non-porous, easy to clean, smooth silicone that is very stiff compared to other silicone that I have dealt with. This can either be a plus or a minus as firmness is definitely my preference but maybe not everyone else's.

It is a very smooth dildo, which can either be a plus or a minus, depending on one's preference. In my case, smooth is definitely a plus. There are no ridges, seams, or imperfections in general that affect this dildo, which is definitely appreciated.

The color of the Hottie is definitely a plus. The shiny blue definitely makes it stand out, and not in a bad way, but maybe I'm just partial to the color blue. Regardless, the dildo is pretty and definitely adds to everything going for this toy.

The design has a slight curve which can allow it to be used for the P-spot or G-spot. However, it is only a slight curve so it may not be perfect in that regard. Rather its main function can be simply explained as a standard dildo with the option for vibration or strap-on use.

As far as size goes, this particular toy may not be for beginners. Its length is standard but its width is a solid 1.5 inches across its entire length. With its relatively unforgiving material, this to may be a bit too wide for those without experience, and may even require a bit of preparation prior to insertion for those who do have some experience. Overall, the average user would find it a tad large, but not so much that I wouldn't suggest it for the average user.

Last but not least, the ability to fit bullet vibes in the toy needs to be addressed. For average bullet vibes it will fit, but even then it's a bit tight of a fit. Sometimes it can be a bit hard to remove, and that is my only complaint on that matter. Other than that, it is a functional design that definitely adds to the toy.

First and foremost, this toy is harness compatible. Its flared base allows it good control, and it functions just as it should in this regard. So far no difficulties in control, at least that my partner has expressed, so quite content in this aspect.

As mentioned before, the toy is very firm, which in my opinion adds to its performance. It may not be forgiving, but a good firm experience is always appreciated.

The vibrations are always a welcome addition, however, they get weaker towards the tip. Therefore the vibrations may not be as powerful as you might like, but in any case they are always a welcome addition.

As mentioned before, this particular toy is a tad large so taking it slowly is a good route to take. Make sure to use plenty of lube and work yourself up to its girth, as it may be difficult to take straight up. However, its size adds to its performance if you are the kind of person that likes a bit of a challenge. Otherwise it may fail in that you have to take a good while getting used to it.

This toy is very simple to clean. It is made of silicone so soap and water is your best bet. I would recommend taking the bullet vibe out first because, I would not trust it to be waterproof though. In general, it is very simple to clean and can be done so in a myriad of fashions.

Don't use silicone lube. Store it away from other silicone toys. These are the 2 laws of keeping silicone based products in good condition.

The bullet vibe uses watch batteries, but have good duration, so this hasn't been an issue yet.
