Original vacuum cup - masturbation sleeve by TENGA - review by corypark

...Then this masturbation cup, made by Tenga, is for YOU! This was a wonderful toy to use. It arrived and looked exactly as the picture does, except a littler smaller than the picture hints. The cup was about 6" tall, so it does an adequate job of pleasuring the parts of the penis that really matter, however, if you're like me and a little larger, I'd recommend the Tenga US line of products, which also produces a deep-throat cup. Just another note on design: look at the product design pictures, and observe the amazing detail on the interior of the cup--I could feel every one of those shapes!

Well, I must say... this truly is the next best thing to actually being deep-throated. While there is no substitute to the real thing, this is about as close as it gets--and by that, I mean that it's virtually identical. The sensation of sucking is controlled by an easy-to-use air valve on top of the cup--just put your finger on it to halt air-flow through the cup. Insertion is easy, the silicone is very very soft and pliable, and it is PRE-LUBRICATED. So it couldn't be easier to use! Just unwrap the cap (there is a small perforated strip to pull on to rip off the part of the wrapper that covers the cap), tear off the small foil seal over the air-hole on the top of the cup (and don't worry, there's an arrow on the side that shows which way is up!), pull of the cap, and insert your penis. Then all you have to do is jerk away, experimenting with different length strokes, different speeds, and different levels of suction (using the air-valve technique described above). It's really simple to use. A lot of attention is given to the head, obviously, as that tends to happen while being deep-throated, and even the post-ejaculation experience is similar to being sucked after cumming; that ultra-sensitivity of the tip. Really nice.

A few important things to note:

1) The product is PRE-lubricated with the type of lube that the manufacturer recommends for use with this product, and there is PLENTY of it; in fact, the base acts as a reservoir, so you don't need to add your own.

2) This a ONE-TIME USE product, and is 100% DISPOSABLE. I've seen comments and reviews on here saying that they've washed it out and reused it, but it is so textured and so lubricated and gets so MESSY in there that one, I wouldn't want to even try to clean that out--gross!--and two, it just would not be a thorough cleaning and hence could harbor bacteria. Not a good thing. It's cheap enough to use once and throw it out--that's what it's designed for, so follow the manufacturer's instructions and ONLY USE IT ONCE!

In that aspect, it's very easy to dispose of...just pop the cap back on, and toss it in the garbage. It doesn't look very incriminating...it even looks like one of those "Soup-in-a-cup" microwaveable cups from Campbell, so discretion shouldn't be a problem when disposing of it.

3) The material adjusts to the temperature of the area around it, so room temp may be a little chilly to put on your willy... so a possible solution, if you don't want to just stick it in and wait for it warm up, is to buy the Tenga Hole-Warmer... which is available for purchase on EdenFantasys. It retains heat well, you just might want to warm it up with that product first (which is reuseable, so a good investment if you buy these cups from Tenga frequently).

Note on the Vroom and Bee ratings: because the sensations from this are certainly intense, although there are no vibrating parts...but I think it deserves at least a little recognition for how intense the sensations are! And the Bee rating is because it is quite sloshy-slurpy-sucky sounding, very much as if someone was actually sucking and slurping on your cock!

Overall, a wonderful product and doesn't fail to please. The next best thing to real deep-throating; and certainly a wonderfully pleasurable innovation in masturbation technology. It's the most advanced piece of technology you'll ever penetrate and cum inside of, I guarantee it. That's what sets Tenga apart in the industry, and I think that all of their products are innovative and extremely pleasurable to use.

The best advice I can give is to give yourself lots of time to explore this toy. Experiment with different lengths-of-strokes, different speeds... even different angles (to the extent you are comfortable with). I even tried spinning it around clockwise/counterclockwise... then I tried doing that in tandem with stroking up and down... a myriad of pleasurable sensations are possible, so don't rush! Take your time... there's plenty of lube to keep it nice and wet. And after you cum, you get that shuddering sort of ultra-sensitive head feeling... I tried to keep stroking a little bit with the cup after I came, but it was overwhelming so I had to pull the cup off... even THAT was really intense. Be sure to replace the cap and dispose of properly, and DO NOT RE-USE.

The following question came up in the comments section: "Can I re-use it if I use a condom?" And here is my answer to that, along with some important information I left out the first time:

I would say a NO, because number one, although there is plenty of lube; the condom will use some up. And I'm not sure whether the lube is latex safe (manufacturer doesn't specify), but I guess it doesn't matter anyway. Again, because it will use up some lube and you can't add more...combined with the fact that a condom defeats the whole purpose of this cup, I'd say no, don't use a condom. It is highly detailed texturally on the inside and a lot of technology and design went into this for YOUR pleasure and enjoyment, so don't waste the pleasure by putting a condom on. Trust me--it feels too good to even want to try it with a condom on.

And a note: always follow manufacturer's instructions--they're there for a reason!
(Note: this is a Japanese product, so the cup's instructions are in Japanese--but if you go to Tenga's website, you can find videos describing exactly how to use it; and if you go to Tenga's US website, they have English information there--or just use this review as a guide!)

Also, DON'T SHARE THIS TOY...the Jelly material harbors bacteria and also because it is meant for one-time use by ONE-person, sharing it could pose a health risk as far as STIs/HIV go. Don't share--just buy two!

OK, so be safe and have fun--hope these points clarified it a bit.
