These two toys is the second set of purchases I’ve made from Pleasure Forge, however the circumstances of my purchase are a bit irregular, and are worth mentioning as they could affect my review. The first purchase I made from this store in early December of 2017 had multiple issues, namely, fingerprints on the bottom, and the fact that I received a different albeit quite similar toy than I ordered (same model, different colour). After bringing this up with the store owners, they said that they gave me the wrong order due to a hectic schedule caused by recently finished shop repairs from a hurricane, and that they should’ve marked it as a flop. Due to this, I got a 50$ discount off of this purchase, making these much cheaper as a result.
All these events gave me a pretty deep insight into their customer service. Despite the fact that there was some confusion that occured during my order, and every response took a day because I could only message them after their work hours, they had really good customer service, always being kind, and always attempting to help out as best they could. Regardless of their great customer service, this is a review of the toys themselves at the end of the day, so onto that.
It is important that I mention that I am a male, and as a result, I can only review how these toys feel when used anally.
I will first be reviewing their medium kobold. I was very pleased with the pour I received; although one side of it is mostly green, I got about exactly what I wanted. The toy itself has a very squishy feel to it I absolutely love, feeling amazing in the hands, and even better on the inside. The previous order I made was both too big for me to use, and too hard for my tastes, so this was something I was glad to be able to use at all, let alone regularly
There is one notable issue with the toy design, however. Disappointingly, it’s kind of hard to get a grip on it at times. If I want to move it around with my hand, the only option available is to grab it from the bottom, which forces my wrist at a 90 degree+ angle when I move it in and out with my hand. When I’m using this toy I usually sit down on this while I do other stuff, so if I decide to play around with it a bit with a lubricated hand, it will slide around when I sit down on it later, forcing me to stop what I’m doing to wipe down the bottom.
Onto the myconid: although the pour and hand feel this one was as amazing as the first, this one was pretty much a flop for me for a couple reasons. When I first purchased this toy, I planned to use this as a kind of butt plug, since that’s what it looked like to me. I now feel kind of like it wasn’t really designed for this. Firstly, it seems really really big for that; I can only get half the toy and me, and I only managed to get it inside me all the way once, with immediate regrets. Perhaps I’m just inexperienced, and it’s actually designed for plug type use, however if it’s made for a more in and out type of function, there’s another issue that’s hard to get around, at least for anal use. The texture on the outside is moderately abrasive, and makes it harder to do in and out motions with. All the “ridges” (I guess?) make me sore after a short time, especially since I can only get like 2 inches down the thing, which makes me unable to reach the prostate with it, leaving me only with the feel of the the toy itself. I can see this toy working great if you have a vagina, or are well experienced with large toys, but there isn’t really anything I personally can do with it right now.
I think it would be nice if there was a smaller and/or skinnier version, as that would fix one or both of the problems I had with this toy. I think the outside wouldn’t be as much of a problem if it wasn’t stretching me out too much already, as being stretched and rubbed a lot at once gets overwhelming very quickly. On the bright side, I have a pretty good, yet perverted stress ball on my desk now thanks to this.
Overall, I’d say I was pretty happy with my purchase. I got one really good toy out of it, and one that taught me a number of things to be more attentive of when purchasing anal plugs, namely texture and size. The 0030 hardness feels great, and is something I definitely will be getting from this point onwards whenever I buy any more sex toys.
This store has great customer service and high quality materials, and is one I would suggest buying from if any of their designs catch your eye, and if you are in the market for a fantasy toy.
