For such a little toy, it can sure deliver quite a sting. This flogger is both smaller and stingier than I was expecting. Expensive rubber floggers have always scared me a bit from reading reviews about them easily breaking skin, I wasn't expecting anything like this from something priced like this; I was rather unsure what to expect. But I'm glad I gave this toy a try.

The ends of the thin red latex tails of this whip can leave quite a sting, with just a bit of thud. It's nothing too intense or scary, if you're new to such toys this can be an inexpensive introduction. And more experienced individuals could still find a place for this toy in their collections.

It's also extremely portable. I carried it around in my messenger back for school all day. I got one of the strands got in a zipper briefly, and it was very easy to get out without damaging it. The tails will tangle a bit, but didn't take much effort to untangle, just some patience.

The thin latex strands smell of latex, as expected, but it's not noticeable unless you make an effort to smell them. The handle, which would be better described as three black wooden beads, doesn't provide the best grip if you intend to do some intense wielding. It's probably more of a problem if you have bigger hand. There's a black loop that allows you to hand the whip up vertically; it is a nice touch and helps to keep the tails from getting all tangled up.

I haven't gotten to use this with my partner yet. The thought of him holding such a small toy makes me giggle a bit. The toy just doesn't look to serious, and I'd imagine even less so when wielded by a big man. It's a good thing this has a good sting to it, otherwise I don't imagine it being incorporated into our play as a couple very often.
