This is text taken from the site. I've heard of this product for a couple years, but just recently thought about it. Has anybody here ever tried or seen it in person? How does it feel compared to a woman? :) My imagination was always captured by the image of a chick friend holding one of these between her legs as you 'fuck' her, but without it involving the politics of penetration? What do you think? Would you try one of these? - L/O
Introduction
When I first heard about the Fleshlight I was intrigued, yet skeptical. I had tried other fake vaginas and had been let down each time. The main problem with previous products was poor materials and no support for the material. Also, they were referred to as novelty items, not to be used as actual sex toys. ?
So, was the Fleshlight different? I decided to give it a try. Ordering the Fleshlight was painless. www.fleshlight.com was the site I ordered from and they turned out to be the company that manufactures the product.
The Fleshlight comes in a variety of orifices including
Also, there are 5 different colors to choose from
Each has its own scent that goes along with the color. (Glow in the Dark, has a lime scent)
Fleshlight?
The Fleshlight gets it name for what the container looks like. It's disguised as being a common utility flashlight. The standard Fleshlight includes the orifice of your choice, in the color of your choice, and the standard internal canal, which is smooth. The standard insert that comes with the Fleshlight is removable for cleaning and can be replaced with a different insert.
In addition to the standard smooth insert, there are three accessory inserts that are sold separately.
Wonder Wave- A little looser than the standard insert and the inside has a wave shape. About 1 wave every inch.
Super Ribbed- A bit tighter than the Wonder Wave with more Ribbing. The ribs are a more pronounced, but smaller. Each rib is 1/8 inches in length and about 1/8 inches apart.
Super Tight- Just as it sounds; the insert is smooth like the standard insert and about 30% tighter.
Each insert can be purchased at the Fleshlight website in your choice of color and orifice type.
First Impressions
When I received the Fleshlight I was surprised by its size and weight. It measures 4" wide and 9.5" long and weighs about 1 pound with the insert inside. The color of the Fleshlight is a metallic gray and it has a textured exterior for better grip. It looks very much like a typical flash light and doesn't draw attention.
The orifice I chose was the vaginal, in pink. At first glance it's unmistakable what the insert is. The detail on the exterior is impressive, with nicely rounded labia and clit. Having heard about the vanilla scent, the first thing I did was smell it. Yep, that's vanilla! It's a mild scent and very pleasing.
From the factory it came with a dusting of corn starch to protect it from extreme cold and heat during shipping. I stuck a finger in and it felt very nice. A little deeper and I hit something hard. A quick check of the instructions and I learned that the insert ships with a plastic rod inserted to help it maintain its shape. When I went to remove the plastic insert, I thought I was going to rip the material. It is extremely soft and pliable, yet as I would find, almost indestructible. Once I got past the fear of damaging the insert, the plastic rod slipped right out and I threw it away, per the instructions.
Following the directions; I removed the large cap and the end cap and then I removed the insert. Once again I was a little timid about touching it, because it's so soft, but when I realized it wasn't going to break, it came right out.
The next step was to wash it in warm water, to remove the dusting of corn starch. It came right off without any scrubbing. Then let it sit in hot water to raise its temperature before use. For this I used a large clean bowl and let it sit in hot water in the bathroom sink. Letting the hot water run, slightly, kept the water hot. The insert floats, so only half of it was in the water. I let it sit for a few minutes and then turned the insert over to heat the other side.
Once the insert was warm, I removed it from the water, shaking it to remove some of the water, per the instructions. Then, back into the Fleshlight. You have to push a little to get it in, because it's a tight fit. Then, per the instructions, I reached through the end opening and pulled the insert through. Screwed back on the end cap and it was ready.
First Experience
I figured the bedroom was the best place to try it out. So, on the bed I used the sample of water based lube that comes with the Fleshlight to lube the inside of the insert and myself. The first time I entered the Fleshlight it wasn't what I expected. It was warm and that was nice, but it didn't glide like real flesh and when I pulled back there was a strong suction effect. Kind of like a blow job. I continued pumping and after a while it needed more lube, so I pulled out and applied more.
It seemed as though I couldn't use enough lube, even though when I pulled out there was apparently plenty on my cock and the insert of the Fleshlight. I continued on and eventually came. It wasn't the best orgasm I've ever had, but it was an orgasm.
I removed the insert and flushed it out with water; per the cleaning instructions and put the insert back in. Replaced the end cap and large cap and left them both loose to provide for ventilation.
After Use Thoughts
I was a little let down. It wasn't better than using my hand and there was so much preparation and clean up to go through.
Then I remembered something. In the testimonials I had read on the Fleshlight website, there was someone who didn't really like it the first time he'd tried it. But he continued to use it and it got better. There had to be some tricks I didn't know and why did it feel like it always needed more lube?
I decided to keep trying. So, I went on the Fleshlight website and read through all of the testimonials and usage tips. I used the Fleshlight every day for the next 20 days and it got better and better...
Having used the Fleshlight several times over the past weeks, I am now very impressed. It's not as good as the best pussy I've had, but its better than most of the pussy I've had!
Thank goodness for modern technology.
Things I've learned, using the Fleshlight.
The End Cap
The end cap is very important. If you tighten it too much, the suction will be too great and the insert will grip you too tightly. It will cause the lube to squeeze out and create friction. This is the cause of the lube problem I was having where it didn't ever seem to be enough.
For me, leaving the end cap loose is best. I get a little suction effect, which tightens the grip of the Fleshlight, yet doesn't cause friction. To tighten the hold of the insert on your cock, just tighten the end cap slightly. This is easy to change, on the fly, while you're using the Fleshlight.
Adding Lubricant
To add lube while you're using the Fleshlight, remove the end cap and add the lube to the end of the insert. Gravity will bring it down to the head of your penis and a few pumps will distribute it.
The sample lubricant that comes with the Fleshlight is called Wet Light and can be purchased on the Fleshlight website. A few good alternatives to Wet Light are Astroglide (My personal favorite) and KY Liquid. Both of which can be found at any pharmacy, usually next to the condoms, in the personal lubricant section.
Lube Trick
All water based lubes dry out and turn into a thick jelly after several minutes of use. If you add more lube, you get more jelly. Here's a tip for waking it back up
Just add water. The water will mix with the dried out lube and become slick again. A good way to add the small amount of water you need is to use an eye drop dispenser. You know, Clear Eyes or Visine. Empty the dispenser and wash it out with hot water. Visine is best for this because the tip actually comes off. You might need to widen the tip to allow more liquid to exit. You can do this with a small screw driver, about 1/8th wide.
For the water, you want to use a clean water. No tap or even spring water, because they can have little particles that can add friction to the lube. Use a reverse osmosis purified water.
This lube trick can be used in any form of sex and will save you a lot of money (lube isn't cheap).
If you feel a section of the insert loose its lubrication, try twisting the Fleshlight. This will help the lube spread out.
Position's for using the Fleshlight
For me the best position using the Fleshlight is lying on my back. I tried standing up and using it, but it's more difficult to add lube and there was more of a tendency to pull completely out, which lets air in and the lube to escape. As far as the best position of the Fleshlight itself, it depends on the shape of your cock. For me it's best to have the clit facing me. If I turn it around, as in doggy style, the lube just pores out the bottom. A little experimenting is needed for this and you'll find the best position for you.
Conclusions
The Fleshlight is without a doubt the best personal masturbation device on the market today. The only down side is the time it takes to get use to the Fleshlight. Having read this review and the tips inside, will definitely shorten your acclimation time. The Fleshlight website has sold hundreds of thousands of Fleshlights and claim to have a 100% satisfaction rate and I believe them. The Fleshlight is the one of the best and certainly the most enjoyable purchases I have made.

nice, so would you say the fleshlight is better than a girlfriend in some aspects?
 
I've never tried it, nor do i have one. But i'd think it'd possibly be better than trying to hook up a one-night stand, jeopardizing a friendship, risking pregancy, or just plain whacking off.
 
Fuck it, I will give this shit a try. I checked Babes in Toyland and GoodVibes. Both were like US$63-65. Babes didn't specify but I think they had the vulva model while GoodVibes had vulva, anal and "neutral" (?!) options. The fleshlight website had lady, mouth, butt and "non-descript" for $50 each. Vulva for me, please!
I will buy it and write up a review.

^ Nice!!! Can you write a 'trip report'? :)
I myself wondered about the 'non-descript'. You know those times you just need a basic hole to stick your dick into?
And the mouth model looks like the vulva model, but turned sideways. Kinda like the real thing?
 
Okay, one pink Fleshlight will be delivered to me by UPS Ground. I ordered from GoodVibes, and since I wanted a couple of "other things" I ended up spending a total US$102! :o Oh well....
Yes, I will write a full "trip report" of how it goes. I definitely wanted the vulva because I am not a big fan of receiving blow jobs. I don't know if the mouth version is just the vulva turned sideways....LOL! But we'll soon know how realistic this thing is.... ;)
 
Seems like it would be perfect for long road trips & when your stuck in traffic. Thank God I have tinted windows...
 
I'm glad that one of the advantages of being male and queer is having special friends that will suck your cock at the drop of a hat.
I don't even need to take them to dinner and a movie in my brand new BMW, hoping for the best in return!
:D
 
I think it would feel good, but I must add that you should be able to mount your "fleshlight" somewhere for full effect. If you hold the fleshlight in your hand, it's going to feel more like you're masturbating. So let me know if it can be "mounted". Hahaha!
 
a review from the nov. 2001 issue of mixer magazine.
"I had serious problems with this gadget. The faceless, expressionless mouth gives it a kind of glory-hole aesthetic, which might be hot if the experience wasn't so damn boring. First of all, its too heavy and bulky, which makes using it really akward. And no matter how much lube I used, it felt like I was stabbing Mr. Happy into a tube of Play-Doh. It was so far from the real thing that I had to finish off my hand. Total waste of my time and energy. It was nasty."
 
NoriegA there is something designed just for the long road trips. It is a automatic blowjob machine that you plug into your car cigarette lighter and creates suction.
Crazy shit.
 
these are shit comperd to syber skin toys,cyber skin fells real i rate them
 
LOL
Okay, here is that critical update that most people have been clamoring for....
Today there was a UPS reminder. I think they tried to deliver my Fleshlight (and other assorted goodies) but found I was not at home. :o Hmm, well, they will try to deliver tomorrow....anyway, I will try this damned Fleshlight five times and then report back to Bluelight! ;)
 
Hey, I've only used it three times so far! Okay, let me use it one more time and then I will post a review....I have been taking notes! ;)
