Der Venus Grinder

I just wanted to add a review on my order as I'm not 100% satisfied. I've purchased The Tentacle Grinder in the past with the same with The Super Soft Firmness, and the texture feels different, the bumps in the middle looses its shape as I glide my finger across it with minimal pressure. The penetrative tentacle part also changes shape more than I'd like using my hands. The surface also grabs more on the skin compared to the other one I got, so the silicone was cured quicker and such I feel will irritate my skin.

I also think with this model that more importantly that the hole for the vibrator should be have more options when selecting the product. I was under the assumption that the hole would be where the tentacle is would be a small hole that you would insert upwards. However I have a horizontal slit instead under the bumps as shown below. I was confused and looked at some reviews of the same product and saw that they were more like my initial assumption. Honestly I prefer the location now with the easier insertion/removal, and also since I get more pleasure from clitoral than penetration however other customers may feel differently and may feel they're not getting what they asked for. As such I feel that the company should also advertise what the underside of the product in the initial photos in this change or add an option whether they want the vibrant hole to be vertical or horizontal.

On the whole its a really quality piece of work, I haven't had the chance to use it properly yet but from what I have experienced the texture is really very nice, and I love the colours.
I'm not sure on the size, it is very large, to the point of being unwieldy, and the placement of the bubbly points could be closer to the stem. About the stem, its nice but I would love it to be thicker.
If I were to buy it again I would get the medium firmness, I have some trouble getting the stem in, seeing how it's so thin, the supersoft firmess makes it very bendy.
I realised this I'd all very personally opinion, if what im saying sounds like your bag go for it, they're very nice, love thats it's hand made.
My grinder did however have some minor problems in the molding, one of the strap holes seems to be fused shut.

I purchased the grinder in super soft, surprise me premium, with no additional add ons. Let me start out by saying, the colors are absolutely GORGEOUS!! Plus reminds me of the loch ness monster
There’s definitely a learning curve to these toys. You will need to use quite a bit of lube before using her, which I’m not the biggest fan of since the texture of lube and the feeling just isn’t my thing. No lube means things are going to get caught, snag, or drag in an uncomfortable way while you use it, which is irritating. I don’t know if i received the right firmness though; it felt way too hard when I was squishing it to be super soft. Using it normally for just 15 minutes did end of bruising my pubic bone and it’s still quite painful 3 days later—The bruising and pain is definitely making me put off using it again which sucks since I want to like it. I do wonder if the silky smooth upgrade or a different firmness would allow me to actually use it the toy without pain + bruising.
It didn’t come with a little care card or instructions like most toys do, which i do find odd. I have to pull out my phone every time I want to make sure I’m sanitizing/cleaning/storing properly, which is annoying.
Take this review with a grain of salt because what doesn’t works for me might work for you! I will say, if you’re trying to decide between this one and the synstyl, get this one; the shape is much more comfortable and it’s definitely a lot quieter in terms of squelching.

I ordered this as medium firmness, surprise me premium color, with the bullet hole upgrade. The texture of the bumps is very nice, the stem doesn't do much for me but I've never felt good from penetration anyways, so maybe it'd be good for someone who gets something out of that. It does feel kind of hot to have the stem rubbing behind you while you grind without it inserted though. I think medium was a nice firmness for it, I enjoy how the bumps aren't super malleable. The colors I ended up with are alright, I got a dual purple combo, one being a nice middle purple with maybe a bit more blue than red, and the other being a more red than blue purple, almost fuschia-like, which while purple is my favorite color, I've never been a fan of the redder tones. I adore the main middle purple though, and the shade I'm not that into isn't the main color of it so I'm not really upset about it, they do work alright together, and I did pick the surprise option so it was all up to the dealer, and I can't really complain. It is grippy, so an amount of lube is needed, I'm sure the silky smooth additive would be good on this. I got the additive on one toy and one without, this being the one without, and I do think the texture on the other would probably be worth it here too honestly. The bullet hole on mine is off-center though, it goes in at an angle, as shown in the picture. And while the vibrations do go through the whole toy even with that, it is a bit uneven with the strength locations due to it. Not super noticeable but yeah.

I did not know what to expect when I ordered this, but this is the best toy I've ever purchased. After reading reviews I went with the medium firmness and let them surprise me with the colour (I got pearlescent white, which gave me pause, but im leaning into the ethereal alien vibes) Game changer! 10/10! No notes! My only complaint is that I have other jobs to do but zero motivation to leave the bedroom.

Beyond excited with my new toys! Wasn't sure whether I'd like this, so I was kinda nervous to splurge. It arrived way sooner than expected, lucky me. The emails were a lot of fun and it was discretely packaged.

The colors are absolutely stunning. For the grinder I chose Surprise me me basic, medium firmness. Instead of a Venus plant, it reminds me of Nessie (Loch Less monster) which made me fall in love with it. The color is just spot on for that too. Happy I didn't go softer, as I'm not particularly sensitive and generally like pressure. Satisfyer power bullet in the pic for scale - fits well. A longer bullet would too.

The surprise dildo (sized up to medium) was beautiful and surprisingly perfect for me. The egg I added to compare firmness is a fun little treat.

Can't thank you all enough for your creativity and spirit. As a transguy who transitioned in their fifties, I'm connecting to my body finally. These toys are inviting me to experiment and have fun. Highly recommend.
