Pjur Aqua by Betty's Toy Box



Name: Pjur Aqua

Price: $18.99

Material: Water Based Lubricant

Power Source: N/A

Basic Description:
This clear lubricant is water-based, it is compatible with latex condoms.

Pros: The cap is fairly accessible, you have to screw it off, but it doesn't take very much strength to do so. also it is in a squeeze bottle, so all you have to do is turn it upside down and squeeze it, which also does not require much strength to do.

Cons: It is a little sticker than other lubes I have reviewed so you might have to wipe it off or jump in the shower when you are done.

Accessibility Features: The bottle and cap are the main accessible features in this product

Ponderings: It is a little expensive for how much lube you are getting, also I would have liked it to absorb into my skin a bit better.

Silicone Grip Thruster by Betty's Toy Box



Name: Silicone Grip Thruster

Price: $39.99

Material: Silicone

Power Source: N/A

Basic Description: This handheld dildo is made from body safe silicone. It is a medium size (7.5 Inches) G-spot Dildo. It also has a flared base so it can be used for vaginal and anal penetration. It is not a thrusting vibrator.

Pros: The handle is nicely textured to help you get a grip. It also is decently lightweight as far as dildos go. Also, it is rather flexible as well, ensuring you'll hit all the right spots.

Cons: It does not vibrate so it requires a lot of manual hand work to use. Also, it is not the thinnest so keep that in mind when you purchase this.

Accessibility Features:
I really like the handle because it gives you a good grip to use this toy. the price is also very accessible for a dildo!

Ponderings: if you want an affordable dildo with a good grip, this toy can be great for you!

Wicked by Betty's Toy Box



Name: Wicked - Aqua Water Based Lube

Price: $7.99

Material: Water based lubricant

Power Source: N/A

Basic Description: This is a fragrance-free water-based lubricant, it is vegan, latex friendly, and paraben free.

Pros: this lube feels so nice, it is simultaneously nice and slick but it absorbs into your skin, leaving it feeling soft instead of sticky. The fact it is fragrance-free is good for people with sensitive skin. also, you can use latex condoms with this lube as well.

Cons: the pump is not super easy to use if you have little hand dexterity because it needs a bit of pressure. I could not use it myself.

Accessibility Features: The fact that you would not feel like you have to wipe it off or shower is very accessible because you can just relax instead. also, the body safe material used to make this lube is very accessible. The pump is somewhat accessible as long as you are able to put pressure on it. the price is also very accessible as well for such good quality.

Ponderings: if you want a good water-based lubricant and can manage a semi-tricky pump, this is a great product for you!

Kip by Betty's Toy Box



Name: Kip

Price: $85

Material: Silicone

Power Source: USB rechargeable

Basic Description: This cute vibrator looks like lipstick! it is small, waterproof,  and has 5 intensities and 5 patterns.

Pros: The shape of the toy makes it easy to get a good grip of. it is also lightweight so that's good for people who can't hold heavier toys. its lipstick shape makes it a very discreet toy as well.

Cons: the buttons can be a little confusing because they are unmarked, but they are fairly easy to press. if you like wedging toys in between your legs, this toy could get lost because of its size.

Accessibility Features: the size and shape of the toy are the main accessible features.

Ponderings: If you have fairly good hand dexterity and like clitoral stimulation, this toy could be great for you!

Pivot by We Vibe

This is a special review that features my self and Andrew Gurza. Andrew is a sex and disability awareness consultant and creator of the podcast Disability after Dark. He also has Cerebral Palsy.

My Review: 

Name: Pivot


Price: $109


Material: Silicone


Power Source: USB rechargeable


Basic Description: This is a vibrating cock ring, it has 10 vibration settings. It is waterproof and can be controlled from a Smart Phone app called We-Connect.


Pros: Even though I don't have a penis, I can really use this toy! I can put it over my 2 fingers and wear it like a ring. It stays in place very very well! Also, the fact that is can be controlled via an app is amazing. I, with my very little hand control, could still change the settings in the app very easily.


Cons: The button to turn the ring on need a certain amount of hand pressure in order to use it (however it can easily be turned on from the application as well)


Accessibility Features: This toy is very very accessible! From the shape of the toy, to the grip, and the app, it is an overall amazing toy!


Ponderings: if you don't have a penis, you might not think this toy could be for you, however, if you use a little creativity this toy can be a great fit! I highly recommend this toy for anyone.

Andrew's Review: 

Name: Pivot


Price: $109


Material: Silicone


Power Source: USB rechargeable


Basic Description: This is a vibrating cock ring, it has 10 vibration settings. It is waterproof and can be controlled from a Smart Phone app called We-Connect.


Pros: As a penis-having person, I will say that once you get it on, the sensations feel very nice on your testicles and penis. It was enjoyable to top someone wearing this toy.


Cons: I could not put the toy on myself, and had to rely on my sexual partner for this. It can be painful positioning your testicles with this toy, and after a while, the sensations for me were not all that pleasant.


Accessibility Features: I found that being unable to put the toy on myself was problematic. Although having a hot partner put it on was fun too. I didn’t have enough dexterity in my hands due to spasticity, in order to change the settings on the toy, but the ability to use it with a smartphone app increases the accessibility.


Ponderings:
Can they make it so that it is easier to use by yourself, and is more comfortable on the testicles?

Satisfyer Pro G-Spot Rabbit by You're Welcome


Name: Satisfyer Pro G-Spot Rabbit 

Price: $69.95

Material: Silicone

Power Source: USB rechargeable

Basic Description: This interesting G-Spot vibrator is both for your G-Spot and it also has a clitoral suction cup. It has several vibration and suction settings. It is also waterproof.

Pros: It is a good length to get a grip on this toy. The G-Spot part is flexible but the clitoral suction cup is firm in place.

Cons: The buttons are not very intuitive at first. They are also pretty hard to press and require being held down to turn on/off. The rigidity of the clitoral suction cup could be a con for some people because you can not move it where you need it.

Accessibility Features: The length of this toy is an accessible feature. Also, the fact it can do dual clitoral and G-spot stimulation is great because you might only need this toy to get off, instead of needing multiple.

Ponderings: This toy is fairly accessible so if you want a gspot/clitoral suction vibrator, this toy could be great for you!

Sliquid H20 Natural Lubricant by You're Welcome



Name:
 Sliquid H20 Natural Lubricant 

Price: $15.95

Material: Water Based Lube

Power Source: N/A

Basic Description: This clear lubricant is glycerin and paraben free. It is hypoallergenic and non-staining. It is fragrance-free and flavor-free as well. 

Pros: This lube would be great for someone who has any kind of allergies or sensitive skin. It is not super sticky so you don't have to jump straight in the shower afterward.  It is a little more sticky than Uberlube but not as much as other lubricants I've come across.

Cons: The bottle needs a fair amount of hand coordination. It needs to be first clicked open, then you need to flip it upside side down, and then you need to squeeze it from the bottle without getting too much. 

Accessibility Features: The fact it is hypoallergenic and clear is the main accessibility feature in this lube.

Ponderings: I would definitely recommend this lube to people with chemical sensitivity or allergies. The bottle needs work, but other than that, it is a great product!
