Honestly? I bought this thing because, well, times get lonely sometimes. Saw it online, figured “why not?”. Ordered one, waited for it to arrive like a kid waits for Christmas, kinda nervous, kinda excited.

Opening the Box, First Impressions
Package finally showed up. Plain brown box, nothing exciting. Opened it up. Pulled out the Fleshlight itself – way heavier than I thought it would be, solid feel. It came in this hard plastic case. Okay, first thought was “how do I get it out?” Twisted the end cap off – seriously, it was screwed on tight, hurt my hand. Then pushed the sleeve out from the other end. Weird, squishy material. Smelled a bit like plastic at first.
Getting Ready For Action
Okay, time for the main event. Here’s where I messed up the first time:
- Lube? Essential! My dumb self thought “maybe not that much?” Wrong. So wrong. Tried without enough the first go. Big mistake. Uncomfortable as hell. You need the lube, guys. Like, a good amount inside it. Don’t be stingy.
- Warming it Up: Read you should warm it for a more realistic feel. Tried the sink with warm water. Dumb move? Probably dropped the thing in. Water definitely got inside the plastic case through the little hole at the end. Oops. Dried it off best I could. Worried I ruined it already.
First Go – Trial and Error
Slipped into it. Felt… different. Cold at first, even after the sink thing. Used more lube (learning!). Honestly, the hard plastic case felt kinda bulky, awkward to hold. You gotta find a way to wedge it so you don’t have to death-grip the case the whole time. Used it kinda like it was in my hand. Fiddled with the end cap – looser lets more air in, different sensation. Tighter feels, well, tighter. Played around with that.
Big takeaway? Pace yourself. Went way too fast, just pounding away. Didn’t feel as good as it could have. Stopped, slowed down. Found a rhythm. Actually closed my eyes, tried to relax. That made a difference. Focused on the feeling. Much, much better. Just took some practice, wasn’t instant magic.
The Aftermath – Cleaning Duty
This part? Honestly sucks. It’s gotta be done though. Soon as you’re done, really. Don’t leave it sitting around. I unscrewed the end cap again, pushed the sleeve out of the case. Used my finger to scoop out the… well, you know. Then ran warm water through it. A lot of water. Ran it through both ways. Inside out? Nope, too scared I’d tear it. Just flushed it good.

Then, gotta get that sleeve dry. Used the paper towel trick – stuffed some carefully inside it to absorb the water. Took ages. Left it out sitting upright in its case, but end caps off. Took forever to dry properly. Learned my lesson – you need time and patience after the fun’s over. Don’t rush this step either.
Figuring Out What Works For Me
After a few tries, I got my routine down:
- Lube Factory: Seriously, drown that thing. More than you think.
- Warm Up: Now I just put the sleeve (without the case!) in a zip-top bag, run hot water over it for a few minutes. Easier, less mess.
- Take It Slow: No need to rush. Find a comfy position. Experiment with the suction cap.
- Clean Immediately: Non-negotiable. Warm water flush, inside scoop, dry thoroughly. That drying time is a pain, but better than mold or nastiness.
It’s not rocket science, guys. Just takes a bit of trial and error, some lube, and a lot of patience with the cleaning. But yeah, once you figure out your rhythm with it… definitely worth the effort. Makes solo time way more interesting.
