Lovehoney Advent Calendar 2024 Day #4: TPE Penis Stroker

I’m unboxing Lovehoney and Womanizer’s 2024 24-day adult advent calendar day by day and bringing you a mini review of what’s inside each of the little boxes.

This calendar retails for £149 at Lovehoney UK and $199 at Lovehoney US, and contains £457/$530 worth of products! Don’t wait too long if you want one, because they normally sell out by mid-November.

Today is Day 4.

Lovehoney Advent Calendar 2024 Day #4: TPE Penis Stroker

Day 4’s box contains a TPE penis stroker, complete with a slot along the side to add the bullet vibrator from Day 1 (or any other bullet in your collection) if you want to.

Product Info

Lovehoney penis stroker around red silicone dildo

  • Material: Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), a kind of soft plastic
  • Colour: Translucent white
  • Body safe? Ish. TPE is generally non-toxic but it is porous, which means it will harbour bacteria and cannot be fully sterilised. Don’t share it and don’t expect it to last forever. I recommend upgrading to a silicone stroker when you can.
  • Waterproof: Yes, you can use this toy in water safely, though it may damage the material more quickly.
  • Size: 4″ length but stretchy
  • Speeds/patterns: N/A
  • Lube-compatible: Water-based lube is best
  • Cleaning: Warm water and antibacterial soap. Dusting the toy with a little cornstarch after cleaning and drying may help to extend its life.
  • RRP if bought as a single item: This exact product is not available, but a similar item retails for £34.99

Pros

  • A decent introduction to strokers if you’ve never used one before
  • Ability to use with the bullet vibrator from Day 1, transforming it into a vibrating stroker
  • Very stretchy to accommodate most penis sizes
  • Nice internal texturing that hugs and stimulates the entire shaft of your penis

Cons

  • Weird powdery texture that feels horrible on my hands
  • Material cannot be fully sterilised
  • Unlikely to last long

Verdict

It’s fine for what it is, but I would much prefer it were made of a non-porous material like silicone. Again: if you like the sensation, upgrade to a silicone stroker for a toy that will last you a lifetime and be far more hygienic.
