AUTOSTRADDLE ANONYMOUS SEX TOY REVIEW #25:

It’s our twenty-fifth Autostraddle Anonymous Sex Toy Review! Over the last few years, we’ve been propositioned frequently by sex toy companies wondering if we’d like to review their toy in exchange for, you know, their toys. In 2011, in addition to “saying yes to the dress” we started saying YES to the sex toys!

This week, one of our anonymous reviewers looked at the Lovehoney Flash vibrator.

+ Material: Silicone
+ Size: 3.7″ x 1.75″
+ Price: $35

Here’s how Lovehoney describes the Lovehoney Flash:

“Crafted from skin-safe silicone with 7 powerful functions, an ultra-quiet USB rechargeable motor and a waterproof finish, the Lovehoney Flash mini vibrator has everything you need for discreet, satisfying pleasure on the go.”

To say that the Lovehoney Flash vibrator is sleek would be an understatement. The small bullet vibrator is designed to charge via usb port and looks just exactly like the cutest flash drive you’ve ever owned. If you’re looking for a vibrator unlikely to be correctly identified by snooping family members, the Lovehoney Flash is just for you.

The Flash came fully charged which is awesome for those of us who like to rip open the packaging and try something right away. The vibrator boasts seven different vibrating modes including four normal vibrations of increasing intensities and three vibrating patterns. I love a vibrator that does patterns, so I thought this was great. It is also waterproof and 100% silicone, another must-have for me.

The Flash is a more buzzy vibrator, though I generally prefer a thuddier one. Generally, that means for me the Flash isn’t going to do it in terms of getting me off. I did, however try it as a replacement for some of my bullet vibrators and found that it is exactly the right width to fit inside the base of my Feeldoe and also my wearable strap-on vibrator. It was much longer than the bullets I normally use in these toys, but it still fit pretty snug and didn’t seem to be a problem.

In reality I think the thing that turned me on the most about the Flash was having it plugged in charging in my laptop around other people. My own little dirty secret. For now it’s been tucked away in lieu of my old reliable vibrator, but I will definitely take it out to play with a partner who prefers buzzier vibration or if I need to secretly bring a toy.
