Up and Down All Around Disappointment

This toy instead of vibrating has three rows of beads that move up a down in its center. Although I like the concept, the toy didn't work well for me. The toy was too big for me and I couldn't fit it all the way, although I could get it in pass the beads. Another problem is that the toy is made of unsafe materials; only use this toy with a condom, further reducing my urge to use it despite its unique design. On the plus side, the beads do provide a unique sensation and the toy is very powerful.

Use

This is not normally the type of toy I would pick up, I'm a bit of a material snob, but toys that stimulate thrusting motions are pretty rare (mostly rabbit vibes) and I don't know of any plugs that do (there are a few that have a rotating motion) so I decided to give it a go. The result is while I wanted to like it, it just did not work well for me, but before I get to that, a note about the product description.

This toy is listed as vibrating in several places; however, nothing on the packaging or the Nasstoys website suggests this toy vibrates. I do not know where the impression that this toy is supposed to vibrate came from but it is not and I am not going to hold that against the toy. Moving on why to why the toy did not work for me.

The main problem I had is that the toy is simply too big for me. I tried and I tried, while I could get it passed the row of thrusting beads, I simply could not fit the entire toy. I did check the specs before I ordered it and I have taken toys that have had greater diameters then this as well as toys with a greater length. What seems to be the problem is that this toy is both very wide and very long (for a plug) and it seems that it is combination of both length and girth that stopping me from fully taking this toy. This means I cannot comment on how well the toy stays in or how comfortably the base is and how it works as a plug unfortunately. However as I at least got the beads in, I can review how well they worked.

The good news is that the three rows of thrusting beads do provide a unique sensation, I wouldn't call it the same as anal sex but it is different from vibrations and the toy has decent power. The range of sensations according to the box goes from “slow and sensual” to “hard and fast”. On the lowest setting, my sphincter muscles will jam the toy however, around medium the trusting qualifies as “slow and sensual” and while I wouldn’t call its highest setting quite “hard and fast”, they are pretty strong (and you would probably need a full-fledged sex machine to get a true hard and fast experience). On that note although jamming isn’t typically what you want you can have some fun intentionally contracting you muscles just to see if you can jam them.

However, as I could not fully insert it I am left speculating as to how it would feel fully inserted, getting the beads in deeper would likely make them jam less on the lower setting. However, the way I’m using it now the beads are right on the anus and I wonder how it would work with my anus around the neck and the beads further in.

Material / Texture

The toy is made out of smooth rubber. The rubber is black everywhere expect in the center where the row of thrusting beads are, here the rubber is clear so you can see the beads in action. The rubber has some give to it everywhere except at it's neck which is rock hard. Rubber is a porous material and can contain harmful chemicals such as phthalates you don't want leaching into your body. So only use this with a condom covering it. As you can't sanitize or sterilize this toy you also need a condom if you plan on sharing this toy, or if you want to attempt to use this toy vaginally after using it anally.

The toy has a very strong order similar to that of a shower curtain to it and for the same reason as a above you shouldn't be tasting this toy (I don't know and I don't want to know what shower curtain tastes like, let alone a shower curtain that has been in my ass).

The toy's control pad is made out of plastic.

Design / Shape / Size

The toy has a total length of 7 1/2 inches, roughly 6 1/2 of which is insertable. The toy has cone like designed starting with a tip of a little less then an inch in diameter which eventually leads down to a maximum diameter of little over 1 3/4" at its widest, before narrowing down to a neck diameter of a little under 1 1/2 inches*. The base of the toy measures 4" inches long by 2 inches wide. The plug by it's self weighs 11 ounces and the control pack with batteries in weights just under ten ounces

This toy has three rows of thrusting beads starting about an inch and 3/4 down its length. This clear portion with the beads then continues for another 1 3/4" before the toy goes back the black rubber for the remainder of its length. As I mentioned in the use section this toy was ultimately to big for me.

Functions / Performance / Controls

This toy is operated via a control pad attached to the plug via a 2 1/2 foot cord. The vibration strength of the trusting beads is controlled by a dial; turn up the dial to turn it on and increase the speed, turn the dial down to reduce the speed and eventually turn off the toy. The control pad measures approximately 8 1/2" long by 1 3/4" wide by 1 1/4" thick. I have three minor complaints about the control pad. First, plastic on the control pad is completely smooth; some texture would have made it easier to grip. Secondly the scroll on the dial is smooth, I would have liked a click to know when it goes from off to on and vice-versa. Lastly, the batteries have a bit of loose fit inside of their compartment so you can lose power if you move the control pad around too vigorously.

In terms of power this toy was a little difficult to judge as there are no actual vibrations, however as a point of comparison I previously tried a rabbit vibe that was rated at 4 vrooms and its beads jammed even on it highest setting. This toy only jammed when it was set on the low. So based on that I'd say the toy easily earns 5 vooms. In terms of noise this toy sound almost exactly like my electric blender , I actually got the urge for cake when I first heard it, so 4 bees there.

Lastly, The toy uses 4 C batteries ,not included, which are inserted in the back of the control pad. I found the battery compartment easy to open and close. It is recommend that you remove the batteries from a toy when not in use to prevent drain and the batteries possibly corroding while they are inside the toy.

Care and Maintenance

You should clean the toy with warm water and soap before and after each use. As rubber is so porous it doesn't clean very well and you can't sanitize or sterilize it, so again a condom with every use is recommend to help keep the toy clean and extend its life. I recommend storing this in a Ziploc bag or some other container so it is not touching up against other toys especially other toys made of low end materials as the they could react poorly with one another. Lastly this toy is compatible with both water and silicone based lubes.

Packaging

This toy comes in cardboard packaging the front, left-side, and top panels of the box has a picture of naked women on it while the back, button and right-side panels of the box have a picture of a naked man (at least they thought of both men and women when they made the box). Obviously this pron-y packaging is not discreet or gifting friendly. The cardboard box is not designed for storage but as you don't have to destroy it to open it you can save the box and put the toy back in it if you what.

Personal comments

Ultimately I can see why this toy might work for some but as it stands I can't fully insert it and the question becomes: Is the uniqueness of those thrusting beads worth dealing with the cons of this toy? For me the answer is more no than yes. I could see myself using this toy once in a blue moon for variety's sake but mostly this toy left me wishing for a similar toy made out of safer materials that I could actually fit inside my body.

If you’re curious about the thrusting beads but don’t think you can handle the size I recommend looking at some rabbit vibes or some of the plugs that have more of a rotating as opposed to thrusting motion.
