Classic bender royal - dildo discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by Maiden

I wanted this dong for its bending ability, but it has proven to be versatile in many other ways. Used as is, its generous length allows for getting a good grip while using it. It's easier for both of us to handle than our other dongs that have bases. My man has taken to using it as a smacking device, as it makes a nice smacking sound on my skin. I love the way it feels; so different than the paddles and floggers we have. This dildo is best used for vaginal play, as it doesn't have any flare or "stop" at the end at all. It is rather long, so there is plenty of room to hold on to it. However, with the end not having a ridge or ANYTHING, I would be afraid it could get stuck anally.

Bending this cock also has it's uses. Unlike other bendables that I had to spend much more on, this one stays bent in the position you put it in. Not only does this make g-spot stimulation possible, but I found that I could bend it 90 degrees and stimulate my labia and clit at the same time. This would be enhanced greatly if there was an opening in the end to place a bullet.

This is a classic rubber dildo; it smells and tastes like they all do... not pleasant. It has a some what realistic feel, due to the defined head and veiny shaft. I definitely felt the "veins" but not so much as to be distracting or uncomfortable. I liked them actually... ribbed for my pleasure! It's a firm cock, but still has the give and flexibility needed to avoid bruising of the cervix.

The design of this toy is amazing for such an inexpensive toy. The look and feel is the same as other dongs I've had, but the bending feature was the biggest selling point for me. It allows you to create and maintain the exact curves that you want! Also, for a rubber toy with this length, the wire inside keeps it "erect" not "floppy", as you will find with other dongs. It is a BIG cock, however...10 inches long and 1.75 inches thick, so beginners should take it slow and use lots of lube.

The wire that is inside this toy is the best part! That being said, I did notice that gravity will make the toy slip around the wire at times...it's hard to explain, but I'm going to try. When I first opened the toy and was showing it to my partner, I bent it at a 90 degree angle upwards to demonstrate how it worked. I was holding it by the end with one hand and bent it with the other. When I let go with the hand that I bent it with, the weight of the "head" made the rubber slip around the wire so that the head was bent towards the floor. I don't know how else to explain in, but it's as if the wire is just inserted in the middle with no glue or anything to connect it to the rubber. This hasn't been a problem while it's been inserted, so it's not a big deal to me. I have used this toy three times and haven't noticed any other problems with it. I will be sure to do an update in a couple months.

Rubber is very porous, so condoms are recommended to prolong the life of the toy and keep from spreading bacteria. I only plan on using this for my vagina, so I don't use condoms, but that is a personal preference. It also attracts hair and lint easily. I wash it with antibacterial hand soap and warm water, and let it dry before placing it in a plastic zip top bag. Then it goes in the drawer with my other toys, taking care not to place it next to anything that might damage it (like my spurs or metal clamps, etc.). You are supposed to be able to use water based and silicone based lube on rubber toys. I only use water based lube with my toys, so I don't know how a silicone lube would affect this toy.
