So you may not know this about me, but I am half-obsessed with trying to find a GREATÂ affordable vibrating sleeve for penises. Something that should not be so hard to do. I mean, you can get an awesome vibe for $9, why is a great sleeve so hard?
So I found something that I thought might [...]
As I have mentioned before, we have a small army of folks who are kind enough to test out some of the toys that we are undecided on. Because we are committed to only selling toys that are safe and do what they promise, we make sure that new toys meet certain standards of usability [...]
A few months ago I was asked to help a blind man learn how to use condoms. This proved to be a delightful challenge because while I have taught probably over a hundred people how to use condoms, this was the first time I had to do it entirely by touch.
The most difficult part was [...]

Once again, I am thankful for the folks that are willing to try out sex toys for us. This one right here… The Symphony by Mantric caught my eye. It has an unusual shape, is made of 100% silicone and is reasonably priced (retails at about $50). But something just didn’t seem quite right, so [...]

Check out this review from our tester & affiliate Venus Toy Trap. She was kind enough to review a cockring that I thought might be great: affordable, vibrating and silicone, but it sounds like the pain he BF experienced made it not worth it.
My eyes were rolling with delight and I was nearly laughing [...]

We started our Toy Tester program a few months ago to basically help me make decisions about what to carry at Early to Bed. Some things I just KNOW we need and some things end up in the discard pile before I even open the box. And then there are things that I just can’t [...]

When I saw these Elastabind Restraints from Sportsheets I was really interested to see if they were as great as they looked. Elastic cuffs seemed like a good idea, easy to use, comfortable. Well let me tell you, I was WRONG.
A staff member brought these home to try and then brought them back again without [...]

We recently started sending products out to our toys testers and are getting some very thoughtful & helpful reviews. We’ve added the Thalia vibe to our collection because our reviewer really liked it. But we’ve had some clunkers too. If you are curious as to what it takes to NOT make it into our collection, [...]

Usually we show you the hazardous, the offensive, and the just plain bizzaro toys that are randomly sent us and we will never ever sell. There is, however, another class of toys we do not carry: the ultra super posh ones that we can’t even afford floor models of. With that in mind, I present [...]

Some toys I look at and I can tell they will be awesome. Some toys I can look at and tell they will suck. And then there are many many toys that I am just not sure. They look interesting, but do they deliver?
So we test them. I test a lot of them. My staff [...]
