Basic, Inexpensive Masturbation Aid

The Maven is a basic masturbation sleeve, and as such, is not worth the hassle of pulling out and cleaning on a frequent basis. It might be fun to use with a partner though I've never tried that.
Published: December 4, 2010
Pros:
Does the job, no mess, easy to clean.
Cons:
Nubs may be too much stimulation for some (though you can flip it inside out and use it that way).

Use

The Maven can be used by moving the sleeve back and forth. It can also be used by resting it on something or wedging in something to hold it still and using your hips to thrust. I preferred the latter method as this more closely simulates actual sex.

Material / Texture

The Maven is made of elastomer and has no real noticeable odor. The outside is smooth, and the inside has nubs though you can turn it inside out.

Shape / Design / Size / Fit

I'm a little larger than average, and the Maven fit ok. It might be more comfortable for average size guys. My sensitivity to it could be because I am uncut. It's small enough that you could travel with it, but I don't think it's so mind-blowing that it's worth traveling with.

Functions / Performance / Controls

The best feature of the Maven is it only has one open end. That means you can finish inside it without worrying about where all the semen is going to go. The closed end also means that, by squeezing all the air out of the Maven before inserting your penis, you can create a slight vacuum effect that sucks your penis in.

Care and Maintenance

The Maven is very easy to clean. Just flip it inside out, wash it, and flip it back (or dry first before flipping it back).

Experience

It does the job, but I found the nubs to be uncomfortable. It could be because I'm a little larger than average, or it could be because I have foreskin, or it could be both. In any case, I find I don't use it often because unless I finish very quickly, the stimulation from the nubs becomes uncomfortable and mildly painful.

One of the nice things about a sleeve is if you're with a partner you don't have to worry about where the semen is going to go.

I really like mine and use every month or so. Interesting that you felt there was a lot of stimulation, most complain that there is not enough. haha. I like it just fine.
Good review.

@Dwtim: Yeah, I guess everyone is a bit different. I think ridges would have provided the right amount of stimulation for me, but the nubs are just too much.

      I'm curious what type of care is ideal to keep the sleeves and pocket pussies from cracking/splitting?

      Is this just something that they all do, or does this happen if the toy isn't lubricated enough? It could just be my size, but every one of these toys my GF has gotten me always seems to develop a split within a week or two.

  • Cornstarch w/ Maven sleeve?
    • I just got the Maven sleeve and it seemed to be dusted with cornstarch or something else white when it was in the package. I assumed it was to keep it soft on the outside, but I haven't heard anything about using cornstarch with elastomer. Just soap and water, right?

      I have heard about cornstarch being used to dust some products like the fleshlight, I think to reduce the tackyness and keep it soft. A google search shows recommendations for doing so with silicone and cyberskin, but not specifically elastomer (although some industrial type sites suggest using cornstarch on elastomer..)

      I think you should use cornstarch because otherwise, the material does get a little sticky after a while. I was wondering, tho, does anyone know if you can use oil lubes with elastomer?

  • Good non-toxic masturbator
    • DavyB
      I wanted to get a masturbator that is NON_TOXIC, not too large, and can hold ejaculate for easy clean-up. I was considering the Maven. It has good reviews and opinions..so I hope I'm making the right choice.

      OMG! The Maven rocks! I own it! Looks like it meets all your needs!
      It's non-toxic (unless you plan on having it for lunch after you use it for masturbation :D ), large enough, very soft and feels great!
      And I think you'll be fine as far as cleaning goes...it's very easy to clean. You can turn it inside out for a better cleaning!
    • Fleshlights are also made with phthalate-free material and are quite popular ;)

  • The maven is awesome..
    • I use this one all the time.. the whole sleeve is really soft and squishy, so if you want it tighter, you can just squeeze it. The nubs on the inside feel great, and a little bit of lube really makes it an experience. Easy to clean up, too!

      I'm not a man, but I bought a "Head Honcho" for a man and he says that it feels like a combination of a "blow job" and being inside a "kitty". I wonder just how good it feels for a man, but I watched him with it and he had a very quick and powerful orgasm.
    • I would dust with cornstarch after it is completely dry. These elastometer sleeves are kind of sticky--more to itself than to humans!
