Egg masturbator - masturbator in a plastic case by TENGA - review by Jimbo Jones

The Tenga Egg masturbator is different if nothing else. It is amazing both in idea and execution. It is a compact masturbator with different interiors that is very stretchy and provides good stimulation. The visual aspect is even worthwhile as you can see through it as it stretches along your shaft. It is like a very small and very thin version of an Ice Fleshlight, or almost like a thick condom with interior texture (ribbed for HIS pleasure).

Peel off the wrapping, open the egg, remove the plastic insert and free lube pouch, lube up the interior, and you are in business. The soft silicone may not be built to last through many repeated uses, but the price isn’t bad either. There are several different interior textures which might keep the repeated experiences exciting, but this review is for the twinkle interior.

The material of the Tenga egg masturbator is listed as silicone. If this is pure silicone, it is softer than any silicone toy in my experience. It feels more like TPR silicone. It is possible that it is similar to the silicone used for the exterior coating of Vixskin or Tantus H2O toys which are also very soft on the outside. This might also explain the delicate nature of this toy as reports have been made that it can be punctured pretty easily. There was no detectable odor with the Tenga egg material.

The texture for consideration here is the Twinkle interior. There are little stars and vertical waves on the interior for stimulation. It’s like there’s a galaxy trapped on the inside of this little egg – think Men in Black, only bigger. Maybe that’s a bad analogy, but the interior textures are very stimulating, so this one is definitely worthy of consideration.

Well, like the name suggests, this masturbator is in the shape of an egg with a hole on the bottom for entry. The design is unlike any other and since there are so many different interiors available, it should take one a while to work through them all. The different interiors might not feel all that different, however, so it might be worthwhile to try some of the most disparate ones and see if you can really tell the difference before deciding whether one wants to try them all.

The size is diminutive, but it does have a lot of stretch to it, so if you don’t go too crazy, it should be able to stay intact. The fit was reasonable and not too tight, so warming up with the egg is definitely possible. Lube it up and stretch the opening over your head and then slide up and down until you achieve the desired outcome. It definitely adds a different component to a masturbation session.

This might be the trickiest thing about the Tenga Egg. If it is made out of pure silicone, then you just need to avoid silicone lube. If it is made out of a blended material like TPR silicone, then sticking to water based lubricants becomes much more critical. If you want to play it safe, stick to water based lubricants. This makes water play trickier, but a thicker water based lube might work out okay in this circumstance. The impression is that the Tenga Egg is not designed for long term use.

The Egg is easy to clean as it can be turned completely inside-out with little effort. Soap and hot water or toy cleaner can be used for cleaning. If it is pure silicone, than it should be able to hold up to a boiling, but this has not been attempted yet with the egg I have. Sharing is a no-no unless you are able to sterilize it by boiling or thoroughly cleaning with a bleach solution (if it truly is non-porous like pure silicone).

Packaging is diminutive as well which makes the Tenga Egg perfect for traveling. It comes in a plastic case (like those plastic eggs you can get at the stores during Easter season). This egg is covered with a shrink wrap plastic outside for shipping. Once the shrink wrap is removed there is no clue as to what is inside until it is opened up. Upon opening, there is a small plastic insert which helps the egg maintain its shape during shipping and has the free lubricant sample pouch rolled up inside. All in all, very creative packaging that has a great look.

I don’t travel often, but I happened to be taking a flight just after having received the Tenga Egg. I figured this was a perfect chance to see if I could get a sex toy past security without issue as this thing is very easy to miss. Both flights I went on it passed through security in my carry-on bag without issue and without embarrassment. It’s fun feeling a little sneaky when you go through airport security.

My use of the egg was straight forward, and it worked very well for me. I did not puncture the egg or really have any trouble with it at all. I will say that it is best to let it remain outside the hard shell after cleaning so it can dry out because it would take a very long time to get dry inside that shell.
