Our team has been on a mission to stick our eager dicks into every synthetic beaver on the market, and damn it if we don’t take our jobs seriously. So, when we were suggested to put our hands on the TENGA Flip-Hole fuck toy, we just couldn’t say no. As diehard Fleshlight fanatics, we were skeptical as to the quality of the impending lay. But after closer inspection we decided it was somewhat comparable to our top pick – at least for people who don’t know any better.
Perhaps you would like to know better, though. We don’t blame you. After all, our team is a group of horny bastards who can appreciate a good pussy just as much as the next guy. In fact, we like to refer to ourselves as fake vagina connoisseurs, which is why we will keep this Flip-Hole review short, sweet, honest, and complete. Here we go.
What Is the TENGA Flip-Hole?
Well, we were wondering the same thing until we peeked (don’t tell our boss; we were just super curious). This little number looks like a wireless waffle maker for your dick, minus the burning heat and subsequent breakfast. Seriously though, it is a male masturbation device designed to pleasure your penis with a variety of interchangeable lining textures. Or at least that’s the best way we can describe it.
We are already familiar with the TENGA brand. We know them as being one of the best in the biz, so we trust them to give us a proper fucking. The Flip-Hole comes in four colors, and each of them is slightly different. It’s not so much the color that changes as it is the texture inside the casing that can be interchanged to create a variety of unique experiences. We got to choose between white, silver, black, or red. We will explain the details of each in a minute.
In the meantime, it is important to note that the TENGA Flip-Hole is reusable. So, we advise not buying one until you have considered the properties of all four versions. If you’re anything like us, once you find something you like you tend to compare everything to it. Perhaps that’s why our entire team kept referring to the Fleshlight line when we were discussing our final verdicts.
The Main Features
First, we should point out the fact that although the Flip-Hole comes in four different colors and textures, the main features are the same on each. For instance, all units are made to house a removable internal sleeve that attaches at the top using air-tight secures. In addition, every Flip-Hole features pressure pads on the side, which are designed to help you control the power and suction being produced by the sleeve. The sleeves, which are what caught our attention the most, are what we will discuss from here on out.
While we all thought that the textured internal sleeves were sensational, we couldn’t help but to compare them to the Fleshlight brand. The TENGA Flip-Hole feels a little artificial for our tastes – must like cold, coagulated bubble wrap – but then again, we have fucked just about everything under the sun. Our discerning penises, with their professional opinions, say that the SuperSkin material of the Fleshlight is still number one. We dare not argue with an angry dick.
Overall, the Flipster (that’s what we call it to save time on paperwork) is a pretty simple device. We like that. It is not as bulky as the Fleshlight either – it’s rather slim and sleek – but, that just meant it flew out of our hands from time to time right when we were about to get off. Not a good way to go through an intense orgasm, just sayin’. Here is what we noticed about the “Flipster Four” (We get bored after work and come up with nicknames for our fake vaginas. Don’t judge us.):
The White
The texture is soft like a billowy white cloud, if you like that kind of thing. It is supposed to provide all-around stimulation, but it felt more like a lazy hand-job to a lot of us. Not our favorite fake vagina of the bunch, but definitely an option for men with overly sensitive dicks or premature ejaculation problems.
We noticed, however, that the White had the tightest opening and canal of them all. There is also a little orb at the top of the sleeve that encases the head of the penis and, honestly, feels like a million bucks. At the same time, it probably doesn’t feel that great for those with dicks that are 6-inches or longer, but who gives a shit about those lucky pricks? The suction provided by the Flip-Hole White is decent for everybody, especially considering the main selling point is its unique texture.
The Silver
Compared to the white, the texture of the Silver is kind of ho-hum. By that we mean it’s rather plain, but that doesn’t mean it feels like shit. In fact, we liked this one better because it ended up feeling more pleasurable to our already worn out cocks. Simply put: sometimes less is more.
The Silver features a low-profile texture that provided a smooth glide. Used with a great water-based warming lube, and the Silver feels like a killer blowjob from a toothless whore. It’s not as tight as the White either, since, you know, whores are never virgins. The Silver is seasoned, that’s the best way we can describe it.
The Black
Once you go black you may never go back. Okay, we’re kidding, but seriously the texture of the Flip-Hole Black is rather amazing. It is good and firm and it has an incredibly concentrated texture pattern. We found it ideal for men whose junk is relatively accustomed to the fake vagina jack-off game, because it gets in there and drags all the cum out within minutes.
No joke, using the Black is a dick attack. The TENGA brand obviously did their research on this one, but then again it’s all a matter of opinion. We found the Black to have a just-right fit, a fantastic texture, and the perfect amount of suction. It’s probably our favorite of the four.
The Red
It has a texture that reminded us a lot of the Silver, but its texture is just slightly more rigid. The increased rigidity provided more intense suction, so the Red is pretty much just a pumped-up version of the sexy Silver sleeve mentioned above. But that’s not a bad gig if you ask us.
The texture of the Red is rather pleasant too, comparatively speaking. It’s like the Goldilocks of the TENGA lineup – not too intense, not too laid-back. It does offer a shit ton of suction though. It might be the best choice for guys who favor that sort of stuff over fancy textures and patterned nobs.
The Pros and Cons
We obviously had our opinions regarding the differences between the textures of the four Flip-Holes, but how do we feel about the Flip-Hole in general? We had to make a list of pros and cons to decide whether we liked it better than some of others we’ve tried. Then again, maybe our heads were still spinning. But isn’t that a good thing?
Not everything for sale is amazing, even when it’s made from a well-known brand. The modern market is often hit-and-miss, and sometimes we must scrap ideas or products in exchange for better ones. However, the TENGA Flip-Hole might have some staying power if it ends up in the right hands (more like on the right dicks). Here is the good, the bad, and the ugly shit you need to know:
PROS
It is lightweight and sleek.
It is masculine-looking.
It features four separate, interchangeable sleeve textures.
The sleeve textures provide various sensations and intensities.
It feels even better when the sleeve is warmed prior to use.
It is reusable.
The device is easy to clean, requiring little more than water.
It is rather inexpensive when compared to other handheld male masturbators.
CONS
It is kind of skinny and hard to hold onto.
It is not easy to camouflage.
The four textures are somewhat similar to one another.
The sensations are not the most intense we’ve ever felt.
The feeling is nothing compared to the SuperSkin, especially when warmed.
We started noticing deterioration after about a dozen uses.
It takes a few hours to fully clean and try in preparation for the next use.It costs about the same as other models that probably feel better.
Our Final Verdict
Overall, we thought the TENGA Flip-Hole was a relatively satisfying fuck toy. We are extremely picky though. The Flip-Holes have a very nice design, but nobody is going to mistake one for a common flashlight sitting on your table. It definitely looks like a sex toy, but if you’re into that kind of thing who are we to judge.
Since it’s not as heavy as some of the other toys on the market, it can be traveled with easier. However, the trade-off is that you must use more manual power to get the same sensations as the bulkier models. We are a bunch of lazy fucks and we’re not fans of having to work hard for our orgasms. We know you have to fight for your right to party, but we’re peaceful guys who just like to jizz all over the place. If we had to rate the Flip-Hole on a scale of 1 to 10, we would give it a solid 8.
NOTE: Right before we released this review we found out the TENGA brand just introduced new and updated version of of the Flip-Hole. It is a luxury lineup, for a guy who doesn’t mind spending the extra cash on a high-end piece of fake ass. You can find more information on those here.
