Strap-on with dildo - harness and dildo set discontinued by Pipedream - review by blacklodge

This Pipedream strap-on dildo set is a pretty decent beginners toy. I can't see advanced users enjoying this as much since it is flimsy and doesn't stay put very well. When in use, I've noticed the harness pulls away from me, making it harder to thrust properly. So this is not a good one to buy if you want it for anal use. It is a little better for vaginal use and even better for gender play.

The harness is made of elastic and soft foam. The soft foam is 1/4th of an inch thick, and bends very easily. The package does not say it is waterproof, but it is. The elastic is super soft, and no part of the harness pokes or scratches. The 7.5 inch (1 1/2" diameter) dildo is made of jelly, which is phthalates free. Boy does this thing stink. The only thing I can compare the smell to is an floral chemical smell. It smells like what the Toxic Avenger probably smelled like if he was an 80 year old woman. The smell sticks to everything it touches. It has faded only a little bit after a few washes and uses. Jelly has a rating of 2 on the safety scale, meaning it cannot be completely sanitized, so you should probably put a condom on this. Even if this had a higher safety rating, I would wear a condom simply because it reeks and I don't want my vagina to smell like an old lady. Also, water and silicone lubricants work perfectly with this toy.

This is probably the cheapest made harness I've seen on the site. It's a one size fits most, so it is not adjustable. I doubt this is compatible with a wide range of toys since it is literally just a circle cut in the foam. The stats for this claim the dildo holder diameter is 1 1/2", mine however is 1 3/8". That doesn't seem like much of a change, but oh my gosh, it is so hard to get the dildo in. The largest part of the dildo flares out to 2 inches, then gets smaller right before the suction cup so the harness can be secure. This causes problems when the dildo holder is smaller than it's suppose to be. I feel like I'm going to rip the foam putting it in, and even more so pulling it out. The suction cup is AMAZING though. Sometimes I can't pull it off of what I stuck it too. I can drop the dildo from a good foot or two above the floor, and the suction cup just sticks and it stays up right.

Since it is elastic, it will fit a wide variety of people. My waist line is 29 inches and this fits perfectly. The entire length of the waist band is 28 inches, and it can stretch to about 48 inches. If your waistline is any bigger than 48 inches, this will probably cut in to you and feel very uncomfortable. The dildo is 7 1/2" long and 1 1/2" in diameter, but towards the base, it flares out to 2".

While this harness holds the toy in place extremely well, the harness itself doesn't hold in place very well. Using it is kind of hard since the foam kind of just stays with the dildo, pulling it away from me when I try to thrust. It's like my body is moving, but the toy is not. This harness was obviously not meant for pegging since it's so stretchy. It is super comfortable to just wear around though. You can wear this under jeans and you can't even tell it's there since it's so thin. Perfect for gender play as long as the dildo or packing dildo you'd like to use fits.

Every bit of this can be cleaned using toy cleaner, or antibacterial soap and warm water. Super easy to take care of. After washing the dildo, I just stick it to the sink to air dry. It is a complete lint magnet, so keeping it in the box it came in, or something else similar is ideal.

Everything came in a pink and white box with pictures of two girls (one wearing the strap on) on each side of it. It actually comes with an eye mask, but it's made out of super cheap and smelly material. I honestly don't even know what it's made out of, but it's crinkly and has a plastic feel to it. I refuse to put this over my eyes just because it smells bad, and I feel like this will irritate me. I will probably just throw it away to be honest. The box has no instructions, and there are no instructions inside. But it all is pretty self explanatory.

Using the harness during sex equals bad. Wearing the harness around for gender play/fun equals good. The dildo is definitely the best part of this set.
