Double trouble thick - double ended dildo discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by Not Here Anymore f/k/a Happy Lady

I was so excited to receive the Double Trouble Thick that I ripped the box open in the post office parking lot. My first impression: What have I gotten myself into this time? It looked like a massive pink police officer baton. Scary in a “I'm not sure this is a good scary” kind of way.

The Double-Trouble Thick is made of Sil-A-Gel which is phthalates free, latex free, and has antibacterial properties which allegedly limit the transfer of bacteria. It is very smooth and silky, although I have noticed it has a couple of scratches, which makes me wonder how “antibacterial” it can really be. You should use condoms (regular Trojans fit it fine) with the Double Trouble because it cannot be completely sterilized and some people have been known to have reactions to Sil-A-Gel similar to Jelly reactions. It should be washed with antibacterial soap and hot water or toy cleaner. I used a water-based lube with the Double Trouble because it does have a silicone component that could chemically react with a silicone lube.

The property description measurements are very accurate. It is indeed nearly 15” in total length, and 5.5” around. It definitely feels all of the 1.5 lbs weight stated on EdenFantasys, if not more. I suppose if I keep the Double Trouble toy in my nightstand I won't need any other defense weapon.

The girth is something you should definitely consider before buying the Double Trouble because, although it isn't rigid, it isn't soft enough that the girth has much give. Surprisingly, it is very flexible. I can bend it completely in half so that one end rests against the other.

There is a seam on it, but it does not appear to be two dildos glued together. It is more like one really long dildo with covers meeting at the seam. The two ends feel like they are somewhat loose covers over a solid core. Extra attention should be paid when cleaning under the seam. This isn't difficult, it should just be noted.

The Double Trouble has a smell that I can best describe as plastic cotton candy. It isn't unpleasant, but it isn't exactly appetizing. It doesn't taste so great either.

My previous experience with a double dildo shaped like the Double Trouble was quite comical. That double dildo was jelly, floppy, and too small to be of much use. To me, the Double Trouble is the perfect double dildo.

The girth is just right for both my female-bodied partner and I, and allows us to hold on to the Double Trouble without too much effort. We have used it in several positions including missionary and “backwards cowgirl” without difficulty because of it slipping out or not being flexible enough. We have used it for simultaneous mutual masturbation, and also for gender play.

I have also used the Double Trouble for solo sessions, but I have not attempted to use it for double penetration on myself. It is just too large for me to be interested in anal play with it. My partner and I agree it probably could be used for double penetration on one person because it is so flexible.

The Double Trouble stimulates my g-spot nicely, although not so much that I have a g-spot orgasm. It's more that it is very filling.

As of the date of this review I have not tried one of the “L” shaped double dildos, such as the Feeldoe or Nexus products. I have read users have had difficulty with keeping those toys where they are supposed to stay without the help of a harness. My partner and I did not have to use a harness to both enjoy penetration with the Double Trouble. It really works very well and is most certainly worth the price.

I would give the Double Trouble 5 stars if it were able to be completely sterilized.

This toy has wound up living in the back of my toy box. I'm glad I kept the original packaging because it is the only thing that somewhat contains the smell - which has only gotten worse.

I have learned since writing the original review that Doc Johnson said this toy does not actually have a silicone component. On the Eden forums a representative of Doc Johnson said "I just wanted to let everyone know that Sil-A-Gel is an ingredient that we add to all of our PVC material during the manufacturing stage. It is not a material unto itself. It is anti-bacterial, cadmium and latex free and utilizes ingredients that are on the FDA Safe Ingredient List....that is where the SIL stands for. This was not meant to trick anybody into thinking that this was a silicone product. If you have a product that really smells terrible, we are very sorry. The smell of rubber can be off putting to some people, but it shouldn't be worse than that. At the end of the day these are rubber based products. If you have any questions for me, pls do not hesitate to ask."

So if you are looking for a non-rubber material, this product is not for you. It definitely smells more like rubber every day.
