This is the first male sex toy I have ever used and purchased. Throughout the years I've seen reviews, advertisements, videos, etc... about it. What prompted me to purchase it this time is because I recently built a high-end gaming rig and started using a program called 3D Sexvilla by ThriXXX. In the process of messing with this game I found out about an add on tech called the V-Stroker a USB device that attaches to the Fleshlight and with certain movies and games will translate thrusts into the Fleshlight into action in the movie or game. Well being a techie type I decided I wanted to test out this tech. I already have a TrackIR5 by Natural Point which is an IR device that tracks head movement and translates it to movement on screen. I figured with the Fleshlight, V-Stroker, and TrackIR5 it'd add a whole new level of realism to virtual sex.I wasn't willing to spend $70 for the Fleshlight so I was quite happy when I found it on Amazon for $50 with free shipping. While waiting to receive the Fleshlight I spent some time browsing around the Fleshlight website and really liked the upgrades available for the Fleshlight. In addition I got the impression the Fleshlight was a quality innovative product.The basic Fleshlight comes in a steel canister with the Fleshlight logo on the side. Inside I found the Fleshlight sealed in it's wrapping, directions, and a sample of lube. The Fleshlight has a hard black plastic outer which looks like a flashlight. Additional colors can be purchased for $20 from the Fleshlight website. Inside this there is a very life like feeling synthetic skin sleeve vagina. This flesh like sleeve is easy to remove for cleaning or replacement with a different sleeve upgrade.Over the years I've experimented with my own home made designs so I've figured out techniques to use such a device. One technique is to slip the Fleshlight between the bed mattresses and this will hold and secure the Fleshlight in position enabling a doggy style position. For a missionary position you can wrap a couple of pillows around the Fleshlight and angle it up a bit. By design the Fleshlight allows it's owner to get creative.I think the Fleshlight with the supplied sample lube feels quite natural. I however would suggest figuring out a way to warm the device up a bit otherwise it feels quite cold and unnatural. I personally found blowing a hair dryer on it for as long as it takes to get it warm works. I'm sure there's other methods that would work just as well. A few users have suggested using warm water, which I expect would work as well. Although there's been the temptation I don't think I'll be putting it in the microwave. It would be nice if Fleshlight would create a warmer in the plastic part of the Fleshlight which could be plugged in and would warm and keep the unit at 98 degrees. I did find it warmed up quickly once I started using it.I kind of felt the standard Fleshlight sleeve was to loose for me but there are a lot of women who aren't particularly tight. In fact it felt a lot like my last girl friend. After a few more uses I started to like it. I think I will buy other sleeves to try and find one that feels like other women I've been with. It's nice that Fleshlight offers such upgrades.I do think Fleshlight needs to figure out some way to soften the edge of the Fleshlight. I found that during full thrusting I'd push the plump part in and I'd feel the plastic. I simply had to not thrust in so deeply. I think they could make thick soft rubber gasket upgrade that could slip down over the edge for cushion.The unit is easy to clean. The bottom cap unscrews and easily allows warm water to run through and flush out the device. I leave the top cap off to allow it to dry. I found it to dry quickly. I could of course use a condom and this would likely eliminate the need to flush and clean after each use. I really don't find it to be that much trouble.Overall this is a great device and I highly recommend it!
