Intimate grip masturbator - penis stroker by Sinclair Intimacy Institute&re - review by ToyTimeTim

Today we find our hero trimming trees in the front yard; the apple tree is getting out of hand. Anticipation is nagging at the back of his mind; a new toy to try is on its way. The only thing he knows, after some surfing and Google searches, is that it’s a stroker named “Intimate Grip” from the Sinclair Institute Select line from Topco sales. He could not find much as far as a picture, just the toy in the box. He does know that it is made from clear Cyberskin, it is 6" long and will stretch up to 2" in diameter and that it is textured. Also our hero does not share his stroker type toys, but he knows that if he did, he should always use a condom as the material is porous and can not be sanitized.

About the time he is done with the tree the mail person pulls in the drive, they only do that for packages. Finally the mystery will be solved! After thanking the nice lady, our hero heads strait for the sink to wash the new toy and admire the clear stroker.

Opening the shipping box our hero finds a very nice white box. The front has the name and a cut out to let him see the toy. On the back he reads some product info. On the bottom he finds care instructions and the company information, such as website and trademark info. "Enough of that stuff" he says, "Let’s get to it". Opening the reusable box, he finally can fully see the stroker that has been in his mind for the last three days. In side the cardboard box he finds a formed plastic holder with a tight fitting cover. He likes packaging that can be used for storage or be recycled. This is what he see's;



The clear window in the center grabs his attention, nothing better than seeing your tool stroking in and out of the toy. The rest of the toy has a dimpled texture, "that should make gripping it a lot easier" he thinks. At one end he finds a small 3/8" hole, just small enough to cover with a finger, but large enough to allow cleaning ease. Turning it over he finds a larger hole that is about 7/8" across. From here it tapers to the other end, making the feel tighter the farther you go in. The texture, made of raised rings evenly placed through the whole toy, tells the two brains (the one in his head and the one in his pants) that this should feel good.

He smells a faint chemical odor, "not to bad, could be worse" he thinks. After a wash with some antibacterial soap and water (you can also use a toy cleaner) and a quick drying of, our hero heads for the bed, some water based lube and immediate testing...

... For starters our hero, after applying some lube, used the dimpled texture of the out side to rub and tease his engorging penis. When fully erect, he penetrates the inviting larger end all the way to the hilt. The tightness feels real nice and he starts a slow stroking to full enjoy the texture. ~bump, bump, bump~ WTF he strokes again ~bump, bump bump,~ "This feels like a freakin washboard" ~bump, bump,~ "Maybe more lube" he adds more, ~bump, bump~ He does not feel any kind of pain, but real close. "This material is to firm for this texture", he thinks.

He loosens his hand to get a different grip and the toy launches of his penis, the shape of the tunnel must be the reason, a small laugh escapes his lips. "Maybe try from the other end" he thinks. While it does not shoot off, it makes the "washboard" even worse. After trying different grips and techniques he finally tosses the toy in the box and pulls his trusty Flip hole out to finish the business at hand, crushed that this stroker that brought so much anticipation was such a fail. That's OK, our hero looks forward to trying new toys and sharing his experience with other folks.

OK so I tried two more times to use this and it was a total fail! This marks a first for me, as I can always find a way to make strokers bring me to climax. Sadly not this one. :( Really, it felt like I was rubbing my penis on a old fashion washboard.

Oh well, win some lose some. I like a lot of texture in my toys and have even had good luck with the firmer type, but this one just could not get the job done. Thus my rating, I am sure there are some this toy will work for, I would bet not many though.

As of the time of writing this review this product has been discontinued... mmm Wonder why?!
