Good for you and great for your toys
My hubby and I only use this lube in the bedroom and have now for two years. Its safe for our bodies and our toys. Safety first, then mind blowing orgasms after!Published: February 22, 2012
Pros:
Great for use with any toy. Amazing for anal.
Cons:
Not a preferred taste.
Maximus has become our most favorite go to item in the bedroom. Anal has turned to be something really amazing and so has been solo play with any plug or vibrator.
Water based, glycerin free, and coming in a 8.25 oz. pump bottle its just amazing. There is no smell whatsoever and you don't have to use large amounts of it to do what you need to. There is a taste and while its not a preferred taste by any means it's much better than any other lube I have tried in the past and we have tried quite a few. This lube doesn't dry out and leave 'gunk' on your skin when it dries. I've read and heard about some saying they have a problem with the texture of this lube. But from our play with it, when we use too much we do think there is an odd texture too it. We've never had to use more than a nickle or a dime sized amount of this lubrication for comfortable insertion. Also after, when you go to clean your toys (or yourself) its not hard to remove the lube. A toy wipe, or just soap and water will get the lube off with no left over stickiness.
We have acquired quite a toy collection and have liked that this lube is great to use on all of them. Whether its a plastic, silicone, glass, or a metal toy - its okay. It doesn't break down the material of the toy and leave crevices for germs to settle in. Ex. - Like a silicone lube would do with a silicone toy. We have also traveled with this lube, and even though the pump pushes down and twists to lock we have made sure to slip it into a Ziploc bag and we have never had it open or make any messes.
A comfortable lube makes for comfortable play.

I know most people absolutely love this lube, but when I try to use it, it feels like my genitals are on fire! Could it be due to the parabens? Any thoughts, or any recommendations for another thicker water-based lubricant?
-
I'm not sure if it's kosher to mention a competitor's product here, but BabeLube is a wonderful water-based lube that's comparable in thickness to Maximus.
-
Maximus is my go-to lube. I have very sensitive skin and have never had a problem with it.

Is Maximus as Great as The Reviews Say?
-
Two negative things I've seen written are that it has a bitter aftertaste and it does peel off, dry, and need to be washed off.
Positives and opposites I've heard are that it has a natural tasteless feel similar to saliva, and it is a thicker lubricant. Also the pump looks like a great feature that makes this product less messy.
I would like to try it for myself, and wonder if it is really the go-to lube for me, and for others like me. -
This is my favorite water-based lube, hands down and without a doubt. It's pretty thick (ideal for backdoor fun). I've fallen asleep with it on my hands and don't wake up with fuzzy or sticky palms (until they get wet, then it reactivates).

It is slightly bitter but not bothersome. It is thicker and also works very well for anal. I never feel the need to wash it off unless I overdue in the heat of passion.

Does Maximus come in any other size bottles? I feel like 8 oz. would be a lot for me to use before it goes bad. Also, it seems like a big bottle to store somewhere discrete.

It really isn't very big - I have mine it a bedside drawer. Maximus is so thick that you don't have to worry about it leaking unless you really press on the bottle. If my mind isn't playing tricks on me, the bottle is about 2-3/4" in diameter and 4-1/2 to 5 inches tall (including pump), and I think it's closer to 4.5
I think mine's good to 2013 or something (I'm not at home now, but I can check later), so I wouldn't worry about it going bad -

For some reason 8 oz seems a lot bigger to me. lol
