A bit pricey for what it is...

This was my first masturbator ever. It's sticky when you first open it, but that went away after washing it. It seems more suited to guys like me who are on the smaller side of spectrum, but it is extremely stretchy, which probably means it can be used on larger guys.

The Ribbed Stroker is handheld meaning you'll be using some muscles to enjoy it. It's reversible in the sense that the outside has deeper ridges than the inside, and they both feel really nice running along the underside of your penis. I highly suggest using lube with this thing because it doesn't really slide too well along dry skin. I've noticed that no matter how tightly you actually grip it, it applies the same amount of pressure to your cock, but when it's slippery with lube, gripping too tight can make it fly off your cock and out of your hands.

As for cleaning, it's double-sided so it is extremely easy to clean it up. A little soap and water and it's good as new.

When you first open the package, it's sticky to the touch, but that is typical for this type of material. A good cleaning will get rid of it. (Who doesn't clean sex toys before using them? Ew.) It is really squishy, and really stretchy. It has a scent to it, but it isn't off-putting.

This isn't the prettiest thing you'll ever lay eyes on, but I've sure seen worse. It's clear, so you can see through it to whoever's cock you've got it wrapped around. I'm smaller, so it fits pretty well on my cock. Because of the stretchy nature of the material though, it can slip out of your hands and off your cock. I like how it feels: not too tight, not too loose, but then again, I am of smaller stature. I've stretched it out to see how much stress it can go under, and it seems to be taking the abuse in strides.

I use water-based lube with this, but I'm not sure what other lubes you could use. It's pretty easy to clean up, just use soap and water, especially since this is an external toy. I don't keep it anywhere special, just in the plastic packaging it came with.
