When I thought that I had warmed up enough, I found out I was wrong multiple times. The shape of the fist does not lend itself to easy insertion, but then again, I didn't get this toy because I thought it would be easy.

My first attempt at inserting was while lying on my side, and while this was easier to relax, it was hard to get the leverage needed to motivate the toy's insertion into my backside, so I shifted to a squatting position which allowed for more pressure to be applied. This approach worked until the lube made its way to the base of the toy, where it then proceeded to slip out from under me. Now I had to balance while also supporting the toy from trying to shoot out from underneath me. As I finally felt it spreading me open, my ass decided to swallow it whole, resulting in a startled but pleasurable moan. The full feeling was amazing and without comparison in my experience, yet slightly similar to the few times I have managed to fist myself. The fullness was more unyielding, as I can best describe it.

Overall It was amazing, but the need to warm up is paramount to a pleasurable experience with the size of Mister Fister. If you don't properly prepare yourself, you will have a poor experience that will turn you away from the world of pleasure it can bring.

Out of the packaging, there was powder on the toy, along with a plasticky smell that required washing before first use. There was no issue washing away the powder or smell using some Dawn dish soap. It feels semi-realistic as far as the skin goes, but when grabbing and sliding my fingers along the dry toy, I feel what I can best describe as "micro folding" of the top layer or a smooth crinkling. That feeling is only with no lubrication on the toy, so it is not an issue during play once there is something slick on the surface.

As far as the continuous smell of the toy, I can only get a plasticky smell with my nose almost touching it. After one session ended a little messier than I would've liked, just a quick clean with Dawn and air drying, there was no lingering unpleasant smell. I have not had this toy long enough to truly determine if odors will slowly stick to this toy or not.

The texture of this toy most definitely lends itself to being slick to the point of it almost being an issue trying to hold it once the lube spreads over the entire thing, but a firm grip can overcome that issue.

This toy is pretty firm with little give but allows for flexibility. In other words, you won't be able to use this as a stress ball but can fold it in half.

The size and shape are spots on, with it only being slightly smaller than my own closed fist. It has more give than real fingers, but that is to be expected with there being no bone, but don't be tricked into thinking that means it will be any easier for that reason alone.

The only part of the design/shape that I am unhappy with is the end of the area, which is a rounded flat that does not lend itself to standing up on its own or sliding out while trying to lower yourself on it.

This is not a beginner-size toy! I have used toys that boast a girth very close to this that I can take easily, but this still proved itself a challenge to me in not only size but the shape of the closed fist.

The texture and the unyielding challenge that this toy has lends itself to making this a good fisting and stretching toy. Where it could be improved, in my opinion, would be to give it a better-shaped base, if not a suction cup base, to better facilitate riding on this toy without additional effort going into making it stay upright.

Couldn't be easier to clean as all you need is hot water and soap. I would not risk boiling or using a 10% bleach solution on this toy due to its more porous material. The pamphlet says it can be placed in the dishwasher, but I will leave that up to your discretion. I have not determined the best way to store the toy as the size makes it difficult to fit in something common and the bag it came in is out since there was a powder and smell in it that I don't want to deal with every time. It is also recommended to dust the toy lightly with cornstarch.

This toy is to only be used with water-based lubricants.

Came in a discreet brown box with paper stuffing and in its own sealed bag. You could use the box it came in but not the bag; it has the powder it was covered in.
