Toys in Love

The always brilliant people over at LoveHoney asked us politely to do another review for them. – Which is utter fabrication; actually I hired a highly trained and motivated swat team of ex-navy seals to raid their warehouse… – But trust me; though now being wanted by Scotland Yard, it was worth it!

I’m usually not much for toys that vibrate. – Or rather; they have to have a setting and a certain strength, before I go into that little world of my own where pleasure doesn’t lurk, – but attacks with a vengeance. The Super7 G-Pulse doesn’t do that for me. It’s close, but not quite. – And I think I know why: The dildo is soft, squishy and oh so utterly nice when you manhandle it. – In and out in that steady rhythm that’s juuust right for you. But being so soft also gives the vibrations a hell of a time getting to the tip, before all that squishiness eats them all up. – And especially for men, where it isn’t so much the entrance, the sphincter, we need stimulated most, but the prostate. So for all it’s strong, undulating pulsations, I think most men might just go for the toy as a dildo, not a vibrator. – Which they absolutely should. All that soft silicone… is plenty enough!

For woman on the other hand… I think if the damn thing hadn’t run out of battery last night, she’d still be in there playing!

So FYI: though batteries are included – always a plus – they aren’t the best bunny-rabbit sort’a deal. – Usually we use rechargeable batteries, and I would usually have been able to give a better estimation on how long a fresh set would’ve had it going for but… I forgot to put some in the charger yesterday…

Just have some ready when it arrives. (You can thank me later)

My OH loves it! The multitude of vibrations; from weak, strong, circular or not, are all great. She especially likes the way the pulses go up and down, like rolling hills instead of peaks. There’s no direct way of getting the strength of vibration you want though. – So best love the weak, medium or strong you get. – My Oh usually goes full out on most vibrators – since most strong vibrators can’t vibrate worth a damn. But she likes the medium on this one, which probably means the strong is pretty strong in comparison to most… Pinning it down to one sentence from her and it was: “I can’t believe this is a 20-quid vibrator!”.

One note, from a dude though: – And I’m going out on a tangent here, but bear with me. These Super7 vibrators are made for women. – I get that, but still; using it as a dildo, made so obviously perfect for anal play – with all its bumps and ridges – it’s such a shame there’s no stop/collar/ridge/flange thingy on it. So if you want to use it for anal play either: a) do it with a partner, or b) have a firm grip on the thing. – With some lube it can get rather slippery… There is one of the other Super7 vibrators – The Ballsy – which I would recommend if you just plan on using it for anal play when alone.

In the small instruction leaflet in the box, it says the material is a soft, natural, non-toxic jel. – Not silicone. It is in fact a medical-grade silicone. – Just a misspell. But medical-grade silicone that’s hypoallergenic, non-toxic and so forth, also means that you don’t have to worry about phthalates and other crap. Crap which a heap of dildos in this price range will so happily hand you with a smile and a ‘thank you for your purchase’ shake. I really don’t get why sex toys can’t get proper categorisation, i.e. some bloody regulations and serious rules about what’s allowed and what’s not. I have these images of (some) manufacturers standing smiling over their little chemical sets, and I really badly want to buy guns. Lots of guns…! But that’s why I really love this Super7 range from Lovehoney so much. – It’s a very safe, very good quality, very good vibrator, at a very good price. – That’s a whole lot of ‘very good’ in my book, for under 20-quid…

The Range of Super7 vibrators all come in a nice looking black box, with an outer sleeve of some kind of slightly frosted plastic material – sporting a silver embossed LoveHoney logo on it. The box itself gives you a safe bed for the dildo, when it’s not in bed with you. – And a great way of storing it away from dust and so forth. – It looks more like something a several times more expensive dildo would arrive in. There’s actually a really good little set of informative videos under each of the Super7 vibrators on the LoveHoney site. – I suggest you check them out before committing. – They show the vibrators in their boxes – real size, and manhandled by The ‘Professor’. – Always a cool character.

The vibrator is ‘submersible’. – It’s not a bloody submarine, but the o-ring will let you use in the shower, or with a bucket of your favorite water-based lube. Don’t use it in the tub or put it in the dishwasher. – Just some warm water, soap, and some sex-cleaner will do just fine. And as always; don’t leave the batteries in it if you plan on not using it for a while.

Final thoughts would absolutely be a recommendation. – It’s a really really good affordable dildo. It difinitely looks great and it performs like a champ. – What’s not to like? It’s LoveHoney’s own brand and I haven’t seen them anywhere else, so for the time being at least, LoveHoney is the place to be. – Besides, with everything they stock, where else would you be?
