SmartBalls by Fun Factory


SmartBalls.

On the night that I drunkenly purchased the Love Swing, I also purchased this particular item. We had seen them at the AVN Expo, but we didn't see these up close and personal. We were looking at all of their buzzing items and didn't pay much attention to some of their other items. So when we came across these we decided to add it to our order so it could hitch a ride with our swing.

Not your typical kind of sex toy. I consider them more or less vaginal dumbbells. But that is a GOOD thing!! And these little dumbbells can provide quite the workout for your pelvic floor. Working out has never been so easy and pleasurable! There is a metal sphere that silently rolls around in each of the balls. I do recommend that if you are going to use these, that you use some water based lubricant prior to insertion. It makes for easier insertion and removal. Once the smartballs are inserted, you just let them do the work. The sphere rolls around inside of the balls which stimulates and strengthens the pelvic floor muscles. Kind of like involuntary kegel exercises, with the exception of having to actually focus on squeezing pc muscles.

Golden Curved Love Wand by Phallix Glass


Golden Curved Love Wand. First off, I would like to provide a little more in depth info regarding this particular toy. Description: 7" long clear solid curved wand with a multi-textured 24-karat gold fumed Pyrex shaft. This toy is made of "lead free" crystal which is completely non-toxic and will withstand extreme temperatures as well as physical shock without any compromise to it's structural integrity.

With that said, I love this toy!! I have the 1 inch diameter toy . It is also available in ¾ inch as well. Glass toys have the ability to retain whatever temperature you desire them to be. You can place it is warm water, or you can stick it in the a cold ice water bath. Whatever you please. On a hot summer night, there is no other toy that is more satisfying after having soaked in some cold ice water. Some might be intimidated by the rigidness, but don't be fooled. The shape and feel of the love wand is awesome. It is weighted just enough to allow for easy penetration while lying on your back. If necessary, add a bit of lubricant or saliva to allow for a smooth fluid penetration. And what is great about glass toys, is that you can use any kind of lubricant (e.g.: water based, silicone based, etc.)

The Love Swing


Love Swing. Aka Sex Swing. Ok, I must admit that this was a drunken purchase. One night while my significant other and I were perusing an online toy site we came across this interesting apparatus. Initially, we thought "how cool would that be!!" Well, it is pretty cool....but long story short, install the eye hook screw in the ceiling when you are sober. When you live in an older house not all of the studs are placed in 16 inch increments. So you can imagine our frustration once we finally found a stud to place the eye hook. Kind of took the fun out of being able to use it once we got it put up. The swing comes fully assembled, you just have to place the eye hook and then lock the swing into place and you will be ready to go.

Also, be prepared to explain to others why you have an industrial eye hook hanging out of your ceiling. ;) If you are drunk enough, you might just pull it out of the toy box and show everybody at your party what a great purchase you made. Some will be envious and some.....well, may never be able to look you straight in the eye again.

It is a great recreational device to use every now and again, but it does take a bit of agility and patience to get it positioned right where you want it. If not, you may feel a bit wobbly while in the midst of sexytime. There are free standing swing stands, but they are more expensive than the swings themselves. So if you don't mind an industrial eye hook hanging out of your ceiling, then you will be in for a swinging good time!!

Layaspot by Fun Factory



Layaspot: I was first introduced to this particular toy at the 2005 AVN Adult Expo. I was perusing the Fun Factory exhibit when lo and behold a representative from Fun Factory named Rudy approached me with this petite curved looking device. At first look I thought...hmmm, not for me. It did not appear to be insert able and in no way looked like it would serve any type of pleasure that I would be welcoming. However, I was joyously mistaken. IN A HUGE WAY!! This little device has three extremely enjoyable variable speeds that will induce toe curling on the brink of orgasm sensations. Yes, that was one too many "-able" words in that last description. But this particular toys deserves it. The Layaspot is small in comparison to other toys, and is not entirely insert able; unless you enjoy an inch and a half of insert ability...but, this toy is specifically designed for clitoral stimulation. On the Layaspot's container it is recommended for the "clitoris, vagina as well as nipples and the penis." During my experimentation of the Layaspot, I noticed that it was well received during mutual pleasure around the clitoral and testicular region (balls, for those of you non-medical types). While using this toy, it was REALLY appreciated when utilized around the base of the penis close to my clitoral region and on the opposite side by the aforementioned testicular/ball region. I would highly recommend this toy for mutual play...but, I would also highly recommend this toy for single play for those ladies that are an "outside" stimulation kind of gal.

Specs: Layaspot is totally waterproof and is guaranteed for underwater use. Comfortable, easy handling. Powerful, quiet and durable motor, hypoallergenic which is great for those with latex allergies, made of non-porous material which makes for easy clean up (hot water and mild soap). Made in Germany. Uses 2 "AAA" batteries.
