Devine toy lace box should be considered divine.
This box is perfect for someone with a small collection of toys under 9" long. I can fit my cleaner, my lube, and my vibe in here without any issues at all. This is sexy, discreet, and perfect for anyone ranging from shy and secretive, to proud and open.Published: June 9, 2009
Pros:
Small, discreet, sexy, pretty, holds a lot, changeable lock.
Cons:
Provided lock sucks, could be too small for some, rather expensive.
I love this little box. That's exactly what it is too. It's little, but not a bad little. It's a little discreet and it’s small enough that you could be hiding jewelry, a diary, or personal mementos inside it. It becomes less believable that a giant locked box is just for memories (the innocent memories, anyway).
When I got this in the mail, it came wrapped in very delicate white tissue paper that I tore through like an eager child on Christmas. The tiny lock and keys also came wrapped in tissue, and plastic. It was a lot smaller than I imagined, but it still excited me.
Immediately I thrust my 9" vibrator, my large Maximus lubricant bottle, and my before and after toy cleaner inside. Everything fits perfectly. The toy box was almost made to fit my prober. Any toy OVER 9 inches however, will not fit... unless you like turn them diagonally or something, so they lay across the box floor like this / <-. I still have room in my toy box, and I am eager to fill it up.
Let's start with the box's design: The box is sturdy and on the outside, the back, all the way across the lid, and onto the lip where it locks is covered in a deep red satin. Overlaying this crimson fabric is a delicate black rose patterned lace (at least, it looks like roses to me). The sides and front wall-under the locking lid-lip, are covered in some sort of pleather. The entire interior is covered in red satin, a very passionate color and a very sensual texture.
There is virtually no visible stitching, everything is seemingly seamless (haha pun). There is a thin black ribbon connecting the lid to the side, which enables the lid to stick straight up in the air. This keeps the lid from slamming shut, or falling back all the way, which is probably a good thing for the 'hinge'. The lock is annoying, the keys are dinky, and this aspect of it is -very- cheap. I've upgraded my lock to a luggage lock, to prevent myself from getting locked out of the box when the cheap lock breaks or something.
The good: It's so pretty, and small enough to be deceptive. Even if it is small however, it has great internal space! You can put in your own lock if you dislike the provided one. Very well made, and it's got a sort of sexy aura about it, with the red satin and black lace- also the fake leather. Toys up to 9" can fit easily. However when your collection gets too big, you could always use this for something else- cigarettes, stash box, diary, pictures, ect.
The bad: It is not impossible to see what's inside, just by lifting up the lid you can peek inside at the contents. The provided lock is a piece of junk, flimsy and unreliable. It wouldn't be a good choice for someone who has a large collection, or just a small collection of large toys. Anything over 9" will not fit. Also if someone gets close enough to it, the label "Devine Toys" is embossed into the pleather. That just might just be a dead give away to some! It's also pretty expensive, at 40 bucks a pop.
My Choice: I am happy with this box and have labeled it lovingly ‘My Pleasure Chest’. It keeps my treasures safe and sound. Even if it would be easy to just pull up the top and have a look inside, I'm not too worried about someone doing that. Was it worth the 40 dollars to me? Yes. But it might not be the perfect choice for everyone. This would get 5 out 5 stars if the lock was better.

Follow-up commentary
11 months after original review
The inside of this box is now a little cruddy, which could be avoided if I didn't have to sometimes throw things into it hastily. It's begun to get too small for my growing collection, and I'm thinking it is time to move on, and look for bigger and better options. This was a great beginner case, and though I'm gonna hate throwing it out, I'm not sure it would be that easy to clean the insides considering the box is formed of cardboard.
Also, the strap that connected the lid to the box, that kept the lid from flopping open too far broke about a month ago, which is kind of annoying. For as expensive as this item is, I don't know if it's exactly worth it. I did love it while it lasted, but I think for being a 40 dollar box it should last for more than just under a year of heavy use. Maybe that's just me, maybe it stood up well to the test of time.
Anyway, I leave you to draw your own conclusion. I loved it, and now I am kind of neutral on it. It has it's good points that I love, and it's bad points that I hate.

Devine toy lace box – flimsy lock
-
I am looking into getting myself a proper toy box. I really like the look of this one, but the lock looks super flimsy. Do you think you could replace the lock with a different one?
-
I don't have that box, but I can't see why you couldn't replace the lock with something a bit more sturdy. I'm pretty sure a lot of other people have :)

Lace toy box quality/construction
-
wdanasSince the corset toy box I wanted is out of stock, I'm thinking of getting the lace toy box instead. One of the reviews mentioned a bit of fraying on the lace; from my experience with other lace items, I know that could potentially happen if it's not higher-quality or well put together. Can anyone who has had one of the lace boxes for awhile assure me it will hold up and not look messy and horrible after a year of use? :) -

If if it not, please let me know, and I will personally see to it that EF gets them in again so that your original desire can be fulfilled. I am not sure when you posted this, but we recently shipped them the corset style. Regarding your lace fraying issue, any lace receives lots of friction will show signs of ware and tear. The lace we use is not the super delicate french lace of lingerie, so has longer staying power than that certainly. We hope you love your DevineToy box, whichever you choose.

I did already order the lace box, and it should be here today. I don't foresee the box getting a lot of wear and tear just sitting on my bedside table, so it's good to know it should hold up well.
Have you ever considered making the corset box in different colors? The pink is nice, but red or purple would be beautiful too. :)

How much can you store?

Read some reviews?

I think this would be good for small collections.. It does seem a bit small for the price, though.

Do you think a few small electronics would fit in here?
-
a digital camera,a kindle,ipod touch and a nintendo 3ds?
Does that seem like it would fit nicely in this box? Would this bee a good choice or would they fit oddly in there? I'm not worried alot I just have a sister I don't trust and it makes me feel good to lock up things she might run off wih...SHe has been known to go through my bedroom and even take sexual things like the sex card position deck or porn then she leaves it lying around in her bedroom and then I get introuble for having those things.....BOOO! SHe is 21 now living here with her 30 year old boyfriend...I've wondered if they have dug around in here or if she gets urges too... -
I'm not entirely sure about the Kindle, but after watching Mistress Kay's video review on it, it looks like it would hold everything else easily and without problem. Although she recommends buying your own small padlock if you really want to keep people out of it. You could probably even keep a few other things in there with the camera, iPod, and Nintendo.

The Nintendo 3ds isn't out yet but will be in 2011...

Does the Devine toy lace box store well anywhere?
-
would it store well under your bed? I have a cat who likes to go under my bed not sure if she would touch this...If you wanted 2 of these would you be comfortable just storing it un top of your dresser or would u just get the devine toychest so you just hve to buy 1 storage item or do you think it depends what your storing? I thought maybe I lace box for vibrating stuff or glass then the other if I decide to get handcuffs or blindflods,ticklers or bdsm kind of stuff or misc like sexy dice or a small game...

i hope so

Thank you for viewing Devine toy lace box – sex toy storage review page!



I love the pictures however, I would have loved to have seen how many toys you could have stuck inside!
Really good review; it's pretty, but I definitely agree that the size is an issue. Too bad the lock sucks. =/
It dies look pretty cute. I never thought you could peake inside...could the toys be pulled out if you mnaged to catch one with a finger? Thanks for the review!
Good review! The pictures are a nice touch. Too bad the lock sucks, for the price you'd think they'd include a decent lock.
Sleeping Dreamer - I'm sorry, I only have the one toy right now, or I'd put in a menagerie of toys just for you =) Maybe when I get a few more, I will add more pics in the followup review.
Backseat Boohoo - The size is an issue for big collectors, most definitely. But if you just have about five and under toys that are under 9" it's perfect. And the lock does suck, but I suppose it should be expected- if the box is greatly done, -something- has to be crappy! That's like the ying and yang of products.
Naughty Student - Hmm, I haven't tried, but I'm sure if you had a smaller vibe- like for example one of those pocket vibes, or a lipstick vibe, or if you kept condoms/cock ring/little tidbits, it'd be rather easy. I'll try it right now for you. Okay, I have the jelly flex prober, and it is rather long/thick. I can manage to pull it up into solid view, but I cannot pull it out. I cannot get a good enough grip on my maximus lube though. I suppose the thicker the object, the harder time you have in gripping it. Smaller toys I'm sure I could pull out of there.
Luscious Lily - Thank you- and as I explained before- it's the ying and yang of products haha. If one part of it is fantastic- Something else has to suck =)
sorry the lock sucks..I have another carrier that the lock sucks on too! Pretty though. thanks for the review! Hopefully wou will get more toys soon to fill it up!
Too bad about the lock, because this one looks great.
NIce review, thanks!
I've wanted this ever since I first visited EF. It looks so, so pretty.
Thanks for the review!
Good job!
NIce review!
I love this! I need it... hopefully it's around when I finally save up enough. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for the review!
