Flip hole - masturbation sleeve by TENGA - review by Johndoe

Have you ever wondered why almost every male sex toy tries to replicate the feeling of a vagina? It's really a good question; why make a toy to replicate something that in general isn't always a great experience? The wonderful experience comes from enjoying your entire partner, not just the "hole" that you thrust into.

The Tenga Flip Hole understands that, and works from a completely different premise than almost all other male sex toys. Instead of being a fake vagina, it aims to be better than the vagina. It's internals look completely different than anything you'd expect. When you first open it, you won't believe what you're seeing.

Instead of a smooth orifice, it's filled with large silicone bumps, ridges, and spiked balls. The entire inside is incredibly soft and malleable; creating an almost perfect experience for any user. The ability to push the exterior "buttons" of the Flip Hole is interesting, and does in fact add to the entire experience. When you're close to climax, rapidly thrusting while applying major pressure is a delicious sensation.

The ability to flip it open is pretty much equal to the second coming of Christ for masturbators. I cannot tell you how brilliant it is to just open the thing and clean it; while not having to worry I didn't get everything. No "smells", no possible build up of things you can't see. It's a great feature that should be appreciated for itself.

Now, the Tenga does have some faults. First, this thing is like a 1920 Mistress; very demanding. The Tenga requires a huge amount of lube throughout use. When you first apply it, it will work fine. However soon it will seem to get caught in the corners of the flip hole; making it downright uncomfortable to use. Reapplication of lube is pretty much required every five minutes or so.

On the upside in relation to lube, the Tenga comes with three very good samples of their "hole lotion". Both me and my partner pretty much swear by Wet lube, but I may be switching to one of the included lubes if I can find it cheap.

It should be noted that the Tenga is made of silicone; only use water based lube with this product. Use of other lubes could possibly cause the toy to literally dissolve or weaken. It would not be pleasant if it happened to tear while you were using it.

Now, I've got to do a comparison here. The Fleshlight is the defacto male sex toy king, and also happens to be in the same class as the Flip Hole. When compared side by side, it's a very close competition. I own four Fleshlights, ranging from their new SIAC line, to the traditional Wonderwave. While they all offer different feelings; I personally found the entire Fleshlight line inferior to the Tenga Flip Hole. The Tenga is just much more intense than even the Fleshlight Vibro.

Finally, the exterior of the Tenga is pretty nice overall. To the average person walking through my room; the Tenga looks like some weird tech toy. The ability to let it sit out in plain sight and dry off is great. No longer is it a requirement to keep my entire personal area spectator-free for several hours after use.

The most annoying thing about this product is it's name. When I showed it to my partner she burst out laughing at the title emblazoned on it. However this is more than made up for by the positives.

While this isn't quite specific to the item, I must comment on the shipping here at Eden Fantasys. I ordered my product at 4:30 PM, and ordered next day shipping. I had it delivered to my home before 3:00 PM. That's incredible service and speed, and I definitely will not hesitate to order from EF again.

On the actual Tenga, I've only used it twice. Once by myself, and once with my partner. The first time by myself I used way too much lube to start off with. The sensation was muted and pretty much non existent. I put it aside in disgust at that point. Later that night my girlfriend reached for it, and with only a small amount of lube started to use it on me. Needless to say, the sensations without the excess lube was absolutely wonderful. Even more so when I wasn't doing anything by letting my partner manipulate the Tenga.

If you're going to use the Tenga, definitely start with a small amount of lube. Then work your way up if you need it.
