I'm so overwhelmed by this spectacular plush sex log with its vibrating dildo, I can feel a longing for it even as I write this review. After submitting my name as a tester I never expected to be lucky enough to actually be given the chance to test and review such an impressive item. Thank you Lovehoney for the privilege. Not knowing exactly when my parcel would be delivered, I felt all the more excited waiting in anticipation of its arrival. Thank God the postie had no clue as to the contents of my mystery parcel because, as you can see from the pictures on the box, they leave very little to the imagination. On the day of delivery I could hardly wait for my maiden ride with it. Admittedly, when I opened up my parcel to see the sturdy box containing the inflatable luv log, I felt intimidated, nervous and excited all at the same time. The package was heavier than I had expected with the box itself being particularly strong and secure. Taking the inflatable log from the box I could see instantly that it was a high quality product. The plush flocked surface felt smooth and warm to the touch, not having the coldness I had expected. To inflate it I began by using an inflatable air bed pump, but I also tested blowing it up myself and found it only took me about 4 minutes. Once fully inflated it looked particularly impressive and inviting, not least due to the massive looking dong proudly standing to attention beckoning me. Although rigid in the main it does have a slight degree of flexibility and is not totally unyielding allowing it to feel and look just perfect, especially with its lifelike veins and head. The luv log with three sturdy handles firmly fixed in place with one on either side and a third at one end promised to offer a thrilling experience. All the seams and finishes on this sex cushion looked remarkably durable and secure, giving me total confidence prior to using it. The remote control wire comes permanently attached to the base of the dong but thankfully causes no discomfort when in use. With the remote not having too long a wire it was always in easy reach and the battery compartment was easily accessed to insert the two AA batteries. The dong itself seems bigger than the measurements might have you expect once you see it in all its glory and even moreso once inside you. It also, like the handles, comes fixed in place, which unfortunately prevents it being able to be swapped like is possible in harnesses for pegging. However, it does make it seem especially stable and secure. I was further impressed with the thoughtful provision of a repair kit consisting of a patching square and small tube of glue for convenience in the event of too vigorous a session causing any damage. The free gift of the eye mask suggests yet another angle to intensify your pleasure, which obviously would be safer and best suited to couples play. With batteries in place, all that remained now was some lubrication for myself and the handsome dong. Being PVC, most lubricants would be suitable without having to be water-based, so apart from requiring an anal lubricant of course for anal play, there is more choice than with silicone toys. Being unsure of the stability of the log and having rolled off many an airbed in my time, I decided to first try using it on top of my bed where at least I would have a soft landing. After some warm up using a couple of clitoral and small vaginal vibes, I was soon more prepared for the main course. Climbing onto my bed using a small stooI which I had at the ready and standing astride the log, I was easily able to lower myself slowly onto the dong to insert it vaginally. Its firmness instantly thrilled me, while its girth filled me, hitting every nerve ending as it went. Going deeper until my labia were completely flush with the log, I could hardly believe the amazing sensations created. By now in a kneeling position, I was able to grind and rock against the log in any direction I wished, giving me a sense of control usually experienced in the cowgirl position with a partner. Grasping the handles enabled me to bounce and glide up and down on the dong to my heart's content. What bliss this experience was for me. Now being single after many years of marriage, I could once again enjoy the sensations of riding a partner. As if this wasn't exciting enough, the many possibilities of changing position to give incredible variation to the sensations further enhances the play value of the luv log immensely. Due to my prior excitement and anticipation of the fun to be enjoyed, I was extremely aroused within minutes of the intense stimulation finding an orgasm building before even having a chance to try the vibrations. As my body was catapulted into a sensational orgasm I felt my legs trembling uncontrollably. Where the orgasmic spasms would often push any dildo out from my body I was unable to free myself quickly enough, making the orgasm all the more intense. After that tremendous wave I still remained penetrated by the dildo and slowly settled into a steady rocking motion to continue some gentle play so that I could try out the vibrations. Although they were reasonably strong and travelled well for the whole length of the dildo while being extremely quiet, I did not find them quite as powerful as expected, so found that by adding some clitoral stimulation on this first occasion from my tango vibe I was soon experiencing a second powerful blended orgasm. By now feeling a change of position and stimulation should be explored I dismounted and proceeded to apply some anal lube in preparation for some anal play. Again standing astride the dong, I decided to get right down to it once more, but more tentatively this time given its girth. Fortunately the lashings of lube combined with my heightened state of arousal made this procedure completely painless and easier than anticipated. This time from the off I chose to use the vibrations, turning the scroll wheel on the remote control to the maximum, to find that they felt more intense anally. Again adding some clitoral stimulation, I was soon edging my way to yet another euphoric orgasm. This intense stimulation left me feeling totally fulfilled and satisfied. Since my first solo session with this amazing sex product, I have enjoyed similar thrills each time I have used it, both on my bed and the floor and foresee it being used regularly without ever being deflated. When it came to cleaning, a damp cloth and some water is recommend for the cushion while toy cleaner should suffice for the dildo, particularly an antibacterial one after anal use. Unfortunately I did encounter some dye running from the flocked material when cleaning once damp, but fortunately did not seem to notice any staining against my skin. This issue may disappear with time and has not dampened my enthusiasm for it, but it would be worth bearing in mind if you were to use it on light coloured furnishings or fabrics. I would definitely recommend this inflatable luv log to solo players and couples alike. With its wide versatility and terrific fun value opening up many play scenarios even as a position enhancer without using the dildo, it offers great value for money and is worth every penny. Being inflatable allows you to discreetly take it with you on holidays or weekends away. I would not have thought to buy one for myself, therefore am extremely pleased to have been introduced to its pleasure through Lovehoney. If you have never tried one of these, you have never lived!
