A trusty go-to pillow is all good… until the pillowcases are in the wash and you suddenly need to get off. each) with quick side release buckles to strap it to a pillow, your hand, a thigh or a forearm and then grind the night away.

Furthermore, my favourite way to use it has become as a hands-free rideable toy, in which I no longer need to worry about pressing the buttons at all. The packaging for the toy itself is then relatively simple, coming off as a bit old-school and not the most refined, with a clear plastic window to see the toy prior to purchase and a bunch of information about the product, brand and its creators on the sides.

Using its single button, you can cycle through five steady speeds and five patterns, which is a great variety, and then in regards to its noise level and power it is roughly in the middle of the ROMP Wave and JIMMYJANE Form 3 Pro, being discreet yet powerful. Fairly small and simple, especially compared to Darque Path’s silicone creations, the Dahlia then features a width of 9.
