Road warrior whacker - masturbation sleeve by Cal Exotics - review by Jul!a

While this is a novelty item, it does actually serve fairly well as a male masturbator. It's pretty straightforward and easy to use, as well as nonthreatening, making it a decent choice for a guy looking to mess around with a masturbator without actually investing much in one, and of course, a great gag gift.

The Road Warrior is made of latex, which means it's very porous and shouldn't be shared. The outside is entirely smooth and the inside is filled with little nubs that add some stimulation. The whole thing is very soft and squishy and has a pretty strong drag to it, which means that lube is necessary.

It doesn't really have any discernible smell that I can find, and my fiance couldn't find one either.

This tube is just over 6" long and about 2 1/4" wide and has a circumference of just over 7". For most guys, this will work just fine, however under 5 1/2", less than 5" around or more than 7 1/4" around, probably not going to work. The sleeve does stretch, but not much. Being open ended means that length isn't all that important, but on smaller guys it'll kind of flop over. Larger guys who don't mind popping out won't have a problem either.

We both felt as though this sleeve would not be a very long lasting one. It holds up well to being stretched and everything while it's still new, but it just feels so flimsy and cheap. The nubs aren't really all that pronounced and can't really be felt unless you put pressure directly onto them specifically. For a smaller guy, you're really only going to feel that there is a tube that you're using, and that it's smoother than your hand. Thicker guys that fit inside of it will be able to feel the nubs a little better, and get a little more pressure from the sleeve.

The sleeve easily folds and bends however you want (without a penis inside of it), so you can easily store it wherever you want, however we both recommend a plastic bag of some kind, because it does seem to attract particles. Not as bad as some toys I've seen, but still enough to warrant not just tossing in a drawer.

Well, it's a novelty item, so we weren't expecting much, but it somehow managed not to really let us down.

When he first put it on, he said he could see the nubs but couldn't really feel them. As he got started with lube it felt like it was sliding too easily, but as the lube dried out the bottom curled underneath itself on the downstroke. According to him, it's very unpleasant. The only time he could really feel the nubs was as they dragged over the ridge of the head of his penis. He couldn't really pinpoint any specific sensation that that created, but did say that it was far from unpleasant.

Once we figured out the lube situation, we had to turn the TV up, because this sucker gets pretty loud. I mean yes, there are vibrators that are way louder, but for a little sleeve, it was louder than we expected it to be.

We have yet to use it in an aqueous environment, but since you can safely use a silicone lubricant, that should work well in the shower.

First of all, don't share this. For starters, it's really porous so that's a bad idea. Secondly, it's so darn cheap why would you want to share? Just buy enough to go around.

You should be able to safely use both water based and silicone based lubes with this sleeve. Either way, make sure to clean when you're done by washing inside and out with a mild soap and water. You could also use a gel based toy cleaner as a spray or wipe probably wouldn't do too much. After it's clean you should let it air dry then keep it somewhere away from dust and dirt.

The packaging would fit in perfectly at Spencer's. Nothing discreet about this, at all. But then again, it's a novelty item, it's not supposed to be discreet. The front, back, and both sides have the same cartoon image of a man using this sleeve in varying sizes and "Road Warrior Whacker" is printed all over it.

The sleeve comes in its own little plastic baggy, and there's also a little pouch of water based lube included. We opted to use one of our own instead, mostly because we didn't trust a lube that came with a novelty kit. However, if you're at all interested in their .25 fluid ounce packet of lube, the ingredients are as follows: deionized water, glycerine, peg-8, aloe vera extract, carbomer-940, carboxymethylcellulose, tetra sodium edta, methylparaben, dmdm hydantoion.

Honestly, neither of us had high hopes for this being anything more than just something funny to toss at our friends, but surprisingly enough, it worked out really well. It did seem to eat lube a bit, so we had to keep reapplying, but we also haven't tried with silicone based lubes either.

Neither of us had any problems using this on him. It went on very easily and moved around easily (when lubed).

Now since I couldn't do anything more than just play with this with my hands, I asked him all sorts of questions and his opinion went something like this: Well, it feels a lot better than my hand, that's for sure. I feel as though it would feel a lot better if it were tighter on my penis, but I think for most penises it will be just fine. I can't fault the product for me not being the biggest guy out there.

As a masturbator he gives it 2 stars, taking into account the fact that it's so cheap to buy and not actually meant as a serious tool, it goes up to 3. From my side I gave it 3 1/2. You can tug and twist this thing all day long and as cheap as it looks and feels, it doesn't seem to want to break, yet.

Overall, a great gag gift, and not the worst way to try out a sleeve.
