Be advised, I am reviewing this for male play. Before I go into the positives/pros, let me get the negative out first. I'm on my 3rd one in the 6 months I've been using this particular product. The first one's hose broke off at the base of the scrotum area (granted this was after 13+ uses for roughly two hours per use) and had a weird odor to it that took a few weeks to go away. The second one eventually could not be inflated as it had an unknown leak (this one lasted around 16 uses, 2 hours per use) and also had a bad odor to it. (Honestly think the air being blown into it was the cause of the odor.) Currently on my third one and it's working well so far after 7+ uses. (You guessed it. 2 hours per use.) So why the 4 stars despite being on my 3rd one? I have gone through 3 other inflatable toys before purchasing this one and each one displayed a flaw. My first was a bulb which was fine for what it was, but you couldn't ride it. My second inflatable toy had A GREAT feel to it and the entire shaft inflated mainly in girth, but it could not hold the air every time time I inserted it into myself. The third one was a hard curved one with an inflatable balloon that, while big in girth, would require the user to have the entirety of its insertable length inside you and then pump it up. If even an inch wasn't inside you, all the air would go to that inch. Also, it wasn't the type of toy you could ride. Then I purchased this and all the flaws I pointed out in the others were gone. It was as if someone(s) designed this specifically knowing the flaws in those inflatable products mentioned above. The toy itself, when deflated, is about 6 insertable inches in length and about an inch and a half in diameter. However, I would advise to pump it at least once before inserting as it difficult to put in at the default uninflated setting. The bulb pump itself is easy to work, squeeze to enlarge, press the release button to release the air. (No turn nozzle like some other inflatable toys.) With each pump, it not only grows in girth (2 3/4 inches when inflated at max), but also in length (about 7 3/4 inches when inflated at max). Best of all, with the exception of my second one (which went through 16 uses before it could no longer hold air), it holds all that air inside and doesn't deflate. The suction cup at the base makes it convenient to place on flat surfaces which is a plus in my book, especially if you're playing solo. Aside for being on my third one in 6 months, my other complaints are minor. As I mentioned before, it does have an odor to it (though it's to be expected) and I've only been able to find it in black. A variety of colors like dark brown, flesh tone, latin tan, etc would be nice, but that's just me being picky. Still, I've yet to find a better inflatable toy that not only expands in girth and length, but one that also holds the air inside as its being inserted and/or ridden. I hope you find the review helpful. Also worth noting, the first two were much more curved than my current one. Personally, I prefer the third one because of it's lack of curve. Update 10/22/2016: I started noticing a slow leak last week and will very likely purchase another one. All things considered, I've been using my 3rd one virtually every weekend (and occasionally a week day here and there) since early June of this year and feel, despite going on my fourth one in under a year, it's still worth the money when compared to the other inflatable toys on the market.
