Ella - dildo by LELO - review by violetinwonderland

"Ella" is a G-spot dildo, but is also double-ended and the long end can be used anally or vaginally. It was immediately apparent to me that the main use of her was the traditional style curved end. The protruding head was artfully crafted, but still reminiscent of all other G-spot toys. It's best used if that end is inserted vaginally after locating the G-spot and then putting plenty of pressure on little miss G-spot until you get that magic O. The dildo-style end can also be inserted vaginally or orally. As an added bonus, it can be used anally if inserted from the dildo end. I would not advise using the G-spot end anally as the toy is small and it's more likely to get lost.

The luxurious velvety texture is pure silicone. It's bendable, smooth, and soft to the touch. It's biodegradable and safe for the body as well. It's completely non-porous, so there's no worry about germs with this toy. But consistent before and after cleaning is advisable for maintenance of the toy. Lelo also offers lengthy warranties, making the toy a lifelong investment.

On one end is a traditional G-spot curved head and on the other end is a tapered narrower dildo. The whole toy is fairly small (great for me, not the best option for everyone), but it still packs a punch. I found the design of the G-spot curve acceptable and for most women I think it really would be quite an enjoyable experience. For me, it felt like someone was pushing on my bladder. That was the same problem I have whenever men finger me, so that just didn't do it for me. But when I tried the more slender dildo side, it was ecstasy. I didn't reach that magical O, but I certainly had an enjoyable time trying.

The sleek design of this wonderful toy from Lelo stood up to every task I threw her way. From pumping at amazing speeds to slow searching, there were no problems. Even with copious lube, I kept my grip. The silicone was smooth and velvety, never 'tacky' as it sometimes can be. I haven't tried anal or oral with this toy (and probably won't—don't hold your breath). But vaginally, I couldn't ask for more from a dildo.

I personally use warm water and plenty of soap before and after each time I use it. It initially took only a brief washing before it was ready to use and has consistently proven to be an easy clean up. I prefer water-based lubricants as a general rule and use them with this toy. Silicone-based lubes should not be used as they can damage the toy. If you don't have a water-based one on hand, consider investing in one for the sake of the lovely Ella.

The packaging was lovely. After removing the outer packaging, I found that inside was the most delightful little black box you could ever find. Except for the word 'Ella' imprinted on the side, no one would ever know what is inside. (I'm using mine to hold some extra jewelry.) The gorgeous purple toy was nestled in among black velvet and beneath that was a white silk drawstring bag. I couldn't ask for better. What luxury!

After getting a good clitgasm for a warm up (those are easy enough for me to get), I carefully washed and prepped Ella. I used the handy G-spot finding guide along with some lubricant and G-spot arousal gel to find the darn thing. The rough texture was noticeable enough so I went to work. I lubricated myself internally with a couple of my fingers, and then put lube all over the G-spot head of the toy. I slowly inserted it and felt it glide over my G-spot with ease. I slowly rubbed a little bit and felt like I had to pee. I tried doing this for 5 more minutes, but the peeing sensation just wasn't pleasant. Whenever I have researched the magical G-spot orgasm, I always find that it says you'll feel like peeing right before your orgasm, or for 10 to 15 seconds and then it will stop but that you don't really have to pee. Those people are either men or female virgins. After feeling like I have to pee and making the guy stop fingering me and running to the bathroom, I end up peeing for about 5 minutes. None of this 'feeling like you have to, but not needing to' business.
So, after I peed for the requisite 5 minutes, loathing this darn body part that doesn't ever work right, I got back to business. This time I lubricated the narrowing dildo side. I inserted that and pumped it back and forth a bit. I started to moan. It felt amazing. I pressed it harder against my G-spot and went a little faster, pumping in and out. I did this for a long time. It really felt incredible. And it felt like my whole body was opening up. I even felt that same tingling I get right before I get a clitgasm. But still, no momentous G-spot orgasm. I'm beginning to think something's wrong with me.
