So Divinely Sexy!
What a gorgeous little box! I wonder what's inside. Sexy lace lingerie perhaps? Or maybe some sensual massage oil? Or maybe even some steamy love notes and a rose from your lover? Honestly, with how gorgeous this box looks, I definitely want to keep it out for show. And for that reason, I'm glad it locks because I'm keeping much naughtier secrets inside!Published: December 8, 2010
Pros:
Lockable, gorgeous color & lace, perfect moderate size for just the basic things
Cons:
Lock is easy to break, wish it had just 1 more inch in width for my favorite items
I can not describe to you how much I needed another container for my growing collection of adult toys and accessories. So it didn't take any convincing to select the Devine Toy Lace Box. Besides being much prettier than the USPS shipping boxes my toys arrive in, this one locks!
Inner Divinity
The capacity measurements (internal measurements as opposed to the exterior surface area measurements which are listed on the product page) for the box are 9.25" long, 4.5" wide, and 4.5" deep. As you can see, the space in the box isn't too exceptionally large. I definitely can't even house half of my collection in this box. But for traveling or keeping my favorites/new items available bedside in a pretty (and unassuming) box is what is really great about the Devine Lace Toy Box.
The inside is lined in some kind of black, faux-satin material that is super smooth to the touch. (Yes, the inner lining is black and isn't the red of the top of the lid as seen in the pictures on the product page. Strange, huh?) And there's a thin black ribbon attached to the lid and side to keep the top from flopping backwards when opened. I was pleased that once the Silica Gel was removed (please do not eat this, people), there was no unpleasant smell left inside that I would need to be concerned about contaminating my toys.
And though I'd love for there to be just another inch or so in width to fit absolutely all of my newest toys and addictions, this little beauty can still hold quite a bit. Here's the obligatory image of some random fun stuff inside the box to help give you an idea of space.
External Beauty
The backside and lid of the box is plush to the touch with some kind of cottony layer underneath. It adds an even greater sense of lush sensuality and extravagance. On top of that is a red satin with black lace sitting atop of it in a delicate rose pattern. Gorgeous right? The design and cover to the lid and front closure also extends to the small back panel of the box as well.
Around the rest of the box is another smooth, black material that I haven't really been able to identity. I've researched it and found disagreeing claims that it was a vinyl material, faux-leather, or even a satin blend. But what does matter is that it's relatively easy to clean but does seem susceptible to staining from oil-based lubricants (which I have not tested for this very reason).
And, of course, on the front is the small stainless steel clasp that goes through the opening in the front panel of the lid to close it. There's a small opening for the adorable little lock (complete with two little keys) to go through to provide some minimal security.
I do feel it necessary to inform you that this lock is the equivalent to the cheap ones that come with children's diaries or music boxes and is equally as easy to break into. So the security really is minimal. If you desire a little more hardcore locking, it could be difficult to find a lock with a thin enough rod to fit in the ring. But then, you may need to upgrade your whole system to a harder, more durable container too. So as long as you don't have terribly rude/nosey roommates or siblings, this should be fine.
Claim to Fame
All in all, this enchanted little box is a beauty on my dresser and allows me to keep my newest assignments and favorite toys handy in plain sight while still serving as a sensual piece of decor. And though the lock is easy to break into, it's very presence is enough to deter all in my household from taking a quick gander into what I have stashed inside, which honestly is for their own good.

Follow-up commentary
3 months after original review
I've gotten quite used to having this beautiful box out in the open in my room. It's gorgeous and unassuming. I don't even use the lock on it but I do flip the locking ring downward when I close it to keep the lid flush because that little flap likes to poke out. It thankfully has not developed any odor whatsoever from the different materials of toys inside, the toy cleaner, and my favorite arousal gels. There has been no fraying of the lace for me and it's still just as pinkish red as it was when it arrived. It was an all around great product to receive!

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...
