LELO Ella

Date: (02 November 2011)

As a sceptic of most things branded - I don't like to pay simply for a name, I prefer genuine quality - I generally try to resist the temptations of the designer sex toys. A fancy name and higher price tag does not in my experience always equate to a higher quality product. There are some though which are worth every penny. One such brand is Lelo. I have a few of their toys and they do truly stand out from the crowd.

The Ella is one of the cheaper, more basic items in the range. However it is every bit as well made as any of the others. The material is exceptional. the silicone has the most beautiful velvety smooth feel to it, as well as being practical - it glides over the skin with ease and is simple to keep clean and sterilize should you need to. You can use a sex toy cleaner, warm soapy water or boil it. You can even pop it in the dishwasher if you wanted to. the only thing you have to watch is contact with other silicone, be it other toys or silicone lube. Stick to water based with this one and store carefully. It does come with a little satin bag which makes this easy.

The double ended shape is fabulous and so versatile. The shaped end makes g-spot stimulation simple whether solo or with the help of a partner. The other end provides a gentler sensation and is also great for anal play, especially as the shape of the 'handle' end when used this way prevents it from slipping in al the way.

The Ella has taken pride of place with my favourite glass dildos and I wouldn't be without it now.

It's also worth mentioning how beautifully packaged it is. It comes in a sleek, stylish discreet outer box, with a classy plain black keepsake box inside. It looks every inch the designer item and would be perfect as an intimate gift for someone close - maybe with Christmas coming up. Designer style, top quality, great sensations and great value.

A great starter for the Lelo range.
