Better than a cardboard box
Published: September 7, 2008
useful review
This case is wonderfully unassuming and well-constructed, but it doesn't offer many features that distinguish it from any other lockable receptacle. The elastic straps and pocket are not as useful as they appear, and there is no way to separate toys that could melt together.
Pros:
Discreet, well-made, easy to clean, comes with lock
Cons:
No dividers, no plastic bags or pouches, elastic straps and pocket not very useful
I confess, I used to store my toys in a cardboard box.
This was back when I only had a few toys and hadn't explored the wonderful (but expensive) possibilities of silicone and glass. I wasn't harming my plastic toys, really, by just throwing them into the box and shoving it under my desk. But I wasn't treating them nicely either.
When EdenFantasys sent me this For Your Nymphomation case as a Christmas present, I was very excited. Finally, something that could be properly closed and stored! They sent me the purple one, which just happens to be my favorite of all the available colors (unfortunately, it doesn't come in neon green or orange yet).
On the outside, this case seems to be quite aware that it is made for adult toys. The case is well-constructed and very unassuming; the subtle material doesn't even hint at anything naughty (unless, of course, you buy the leopard-print version of this case and are not normally an avid collector of all things leopard-print). The dangling tokens attached to the zippers have the For Your Nymphomation logo on them, but someone would have to be very familiar with the logo to make the connection. The tokens are glow-in-the-dark and easy to grab, and unzipping is quick.
For extra security, the case comes with a mini padlock and two keys. I've never used the lock because I don't want to draw attention to the case. It does work, but the key shape is very elementary and I doubt picking the lock would be difficult.
Inside the case, however, there is very little that makes storing toys easier, especially if you have more than a few toys. The top flap has four different sizes of elastic strap that are for strapping toys in. The two smallest straps make the least sense; I can just barely squeeze my 2 oz. bottle of O'My lube into one, but that's it. I don't use the other straps because I very quickly realized that if I did, I wouldn't be able to close the case without rearranging all the toys in it.
So I've opted to put all of my toys in the main part of the case, which is lined with an elasticized pocket. Like the elastic straps, the pocket sounds good in theory, but doesn't really help with the storage of toys. At first I stuck a row of toys inside the pocket, but I eventually found it too cumbersome to retrieve them from there (especially with other toys sitting on top of them!). Also, the pocket seems to be made for long items; my bullets and butt plugs just get lost.
Sad but true: the current state of my case is one of chaos. I simply pile all the toys in, with the silicone toys in store-bought plastic bags and the glass toys in their fabric pouches. Does this mean that I'm too lazy to keep my toys organized? Possibly, but it also means that I found the built-in system of organization inadequate.
Don't get me wrong—I certainly appreciate owning this case, and I plan to use it for as long as I can. I've just come to the conclusion that my ideal sex toy case would be quite different from this. It would have compartments, like a sewing box or bead box, and they would come in a great variety of sizes and shapes. And, like the XL version of this case, it would come with heavy-duty plastic bags or pouches. Cute ones.
(It would also be free and materialize on my doorstep in the near future.)

Experience
I've had this case for nine months now, and it has held up wonderfully. I usually leave it sitting upright under my desk. I have unzipped it, thrown it onto the bed, and watched my cats walk over it many, many, many times. I can also attest to how easy it is to clean the exterior. One of my cats barfed on it once, and I had no trouble restoring the case to its previous state.

Well, at least the purple matches the Xtreme pack g-spot bullet vibe. =P Your cat actually barfed on this? Ugh! At least no yuckiness soaked into the material! Bad Kitty!!!!
I like the color! It seems like a lot of the sex toy cases seem better in image than in practice. & they're very expensive!! I keep all of my toys in a clear under the bed box. I make little satin bags based on who uses them. Mine bags are black, his bags are blue. Eventually, if my toy collection gets too large to remember which toy is which by a simple squeeze, I've bought some plastic, which sews onto the satin bag and I can insert a little picture of it into the plastic. I'm a bit of an organizational nut. I keep all of my lubes in a pull out fabric cube in my night stand. If you ever find that perfect sex toy holder, make sure you update us pronto!
Oggins: That's true, it does match! And yes, my cat barfed, but I'm used to cleaning it up so it wasn't a big deal.
Beautiful Dreamer: Dude, your system sounds like it rules! Putting pictures on the front is a GENIUS idea. If you do that, I must see a photo of it!
I'm not totally into these cases either, for the same reason. I plan on designing my own large boxes for holding things, with lots of separate compartments.
I was really excited about getting a FYN case, but the lack of dividers really turns me off. I like to keep each of my toys separate and have a pouch for batteries, a pouch for lubes, etcetera...I'm too organized for my own good, and I'm actually considering using a tacklebox for storage! =P
Backseat: You really should just use a tacklebox. There is absolutely no way to actually organize things in this case. You can't keep toys separate or anything. Mostly, though, I want a picture of a tacklebox being used for sex toys. It would be amazing!
I've always wanted one of these cases as well. Storage seems to be such an issue with sex toys, especially since I'm obsessive about keeping them clean. Unfortunately, we have dogs, so the dust and hair seems to get on EVERYTHING. I've settled for using a cabinet space on my entertainment center that I wiped out, and I keep toys with rubber/skin like material that attract particulates in plastic bags after cleaning and drying them.
It's getting rather cramped and unorganized though. Permanent storage of more than one or two things seems to be just shy of impossible unless you live on your own and want to put them in a china cabinet.
OMG I think I stole your headline
LMAO
Srry ;)
Haha, no, it's okay, yours has its own charm to it!
Ew about cat barf! LOL
But it's a shame this didn't work better. I think many storage ideas sound better than they actually work. I also like when the containers have a lining just in case to deal with moisture and such.
Thanks, I planned on getting a few but I think might stick with my lockable luggage.
