Liberator Wing - position pillow by Liberator - review by Darling Jen

This is more than a long, stiff pillow (or are you just happy to see me?). This is one of the most well-known Liberator shapes – the Wing! Now I’ve heard almost as many people who it didn’t impress as I have people who are now huge fans so it’s important to know what is important for your body and positioning preferences. But I am one of the those that simply LOVES it! So prepare yourselves for an ode to this wonderful addition to my Liberator collection!

THE FABRIC

As for all of the Liberator shapes, its top layer is a microfiber. It’s velvety smooth, shiny, and matte enough to help prevent slipping and sliding all over the pillow. It helps repel water (or other liquids) and is completely washable and dryer safe. My only complaint, just like with the Axis Hitachi, is that the shade of purple it comes in isn’t the same purple as my other purple Liberator shapes.

But unlike my Liberator Throe and Axis Hitachi, this one actually has a patch on the end with a Viking-like woman on it. Not that the two holes for sex toys is really all that discreet but this image will certainly pique some curiosity out of your household visitors. “So, this isn’t just a body pillow… Is it?”



THE LAYERS

Further proof that this is not just a pillow, the layer beneath the microfiber is a black, waterproof cover to protect the foam core from, you know, anything messy. You can feel free to over-lube, accessorize with food products, or enjoy your body’s own gooeyness without worry. It will simply wipe clean, assuming the liquid even makes it through the top layer.

Though I wasn’t sure of listing this as part of the layers or the shape, it’s important (or at least interesting) to note that the hole actually cuts all the way through the foam to the other side. But the waterproof covering is just a deep pocket that you shimmy in place down it. Why does that matter? Well, that way no water is going to sneak past it and into the foam. And foam is pretty evil when it comes to material care because it takes, what feels like, weeks to dry and is so porous that smells in the air can permeate it and cause permanent stains. Moral of that story? Keep your Liberator foam covered!



THE SHAPE

So now that we touched on the topic and you’re now knowledgeable about the hole, let’s delve into that. The liberator wing is, well, wing-shaped. The curves make it comfortable, the length makes it useful for all sorts of positions, and the width is perfect for me to straddle. This is what breaks it for most people, honestly. Not all heights, weights, and personal preferences agree with this shape. And that’s ok!

It’s 23 inches long, 7.5 inches tall, and 13 inches wide. (I am giving approximate measurements and did notice that it’s a bit different from what’s on the product page.)



And if we use the Viking Liberator woman as a point of reference, the top of the Wing is where you’ll find the first area to place a toy. It’s a groove in the foam that extends the length of the wing right in the center. It’s roughly an inch deep about 1.5 inches wide. It’s pretty much the perfect size to slide in a straight, traditional vibrator (or an equalivant) to straddle the top of the Wing and get stimulation through the microfiber layer. But because it’s on the wider side of the wing, it’s more difficult to get direct stimulation, at least for me.

Now the best part of the wing is the hole! It’s on the bottom of the Wing, on the opposite side of the patch. It’s roughly 3 inches wide (though I’m not sure you’d be able to get something 3 inches in diameter in the hole), and is as deep as the Wing itself (and, remember, it’s a pocket so it won’t fall through). As long as the item isn’t too slim, this slit actually holds onto your toy with impressive grip! And there’s no rule on what you can use: dildo, plug, wand massager, clit vibrator, try them all!
