Petite Plush Pillow Review

I have so many sex toys it creates storage issues like you would not believe. I am always looking for better ways to hide and store my toys. So, I decided to try out the the Petite Plush Pillow from FunWares.

Petite Plush Pillow

The Petite Plush Pillow is made by Sportsheets, a company local to Southern California and I like that these pillows are made in the U.S.A. In the shape of a rectangle, it is 13″ long, 6″ wide, and 13.5″ in circumference. The outside of the pillow is a soft, slightly furry material that feels nice to stroke. Mine is Midnight Black and it also comes in a light pink. FunWares carries both colors so you get to choose.

You open and close the Petite Plush Pillow using a zipper set into the length of the pillow. Inside is a satiny pillow filled with polyester batting that is sewn on three sides, with the length open. This is where you you can put your hideables. It is kinda like a big squishy retangular bowl.

Definitely plush and smushy, the Petite Plush Pillow has a a fair amount of room in which to store a variety of items. As you can see, I can easily fit my Handmaiden Dong, my Tantus Revolve Dildo, and my Chippendale’s Diva Massager (review to come). I can also fit some lube and a bunch of condoms in with these sex toys. Considering the small size of this Petite Plush Pillow, that’s pretty impressive.

The Petite Plush pillow comes simply packaged in a clear plastic bag to keep it clean. It looks just like a small throw pillow, which is essentially how you can use it. What kills the discretion is the tag. It says “Petite Plush Hide Your Vibe Zipper Pillow” and has images of a vibrator, condoms, and lubricant. The best thing about the tag is the tagline, “The second best place for your vibe,” which cracks me up. The tag also gives suggestions about what to hide in your Petite Plush Pillow, “vibe, diary, lubricants, condoms, massage oils, love letters.” If you’re going to hide a diary in there it had better be the size of a Post-It pad because there is no way any normal-sized diary would fit. I would also think love letters would get super crumpled but if you’ve got something important you want to keep close by, this pillow is a great option.

I alternate the toys I keep in mine, depending on my current mood and what I feel like playing with at any given time. It is very convenient to have this little pillow sitting on my bed secretly holding my some of my favorite sex toys. When I wake up and feel like playing, I don’t even have to get out of bed to find a toy. At the same time, I don’t have to worry the plumber or a friend who stops by is going to see a bunch of sex toys sitting on my bedside table.

The Petite Plush Pillow is well made and sturdy. The materials are high-grade and the stitching is well done. The zipper sits nicely in the side of the pillow and is hidden except for the zipper pull. It simply looks like you can unzip the pillow to wash the cover. Certainly no one would guess this pillow is hiding your very personal sex toys, and if they do it’s because they have one themselves.

I have not had to wash my Petite Plush Pillow or its cover as of yet. If and when I wash the cover, I will wash it in cold and either hang to dry or dry on low. Though the fabric seems strong, I wouldn’t want to do anything to mess it up. If something like oil or lube leaks on the internal pillow, I would suggest washing it in cold and allowing it to sit out to dry.

I wish the Petite Plush Pillow came in multiple sizes and colors. I would love to have one that matched my bedroom decor better, though the black is not bad. I also would love to have one in a bigger size, not huge mind you, but something that could hold a few more sex toys. However, this size is great because I can get a few toys in and it doesn’t take up much room on my bed.

One thing that’s really great about the Petite Plush Pillow is that it still looks and feels pillowy even with sex toys hiding inside. Of course, it depends how much and what I stuff in there. It can make the pillow quite hard but, with just a few things in there, I can still lay on the little pillow if I want. If someone picks it up they’re going to want to know what the hell is in your pillow because you can feel everything in there, but there is enough cushion for it still to function as a throw pillow.

Petite Plush Pillow Pros:
• Soft and smushy
• Discreet
• Can fit a surprising amount
• Well-made

Petite Plush Pillow Cons:
• Only two colors
• Only one size

While I would like to see the Petite Plush Pillow available in other sizes and colors, I am very fond of mine. It secretly keeps my toys in one place, discreetly hidden on my bed. It makes it much easier for me to grab a toy at any old time rather than having to get up and scramble through drawers and boxes. The Petite Plush Pillow is basically for extremely lazy masturbators, like myself. I mean who doesn’t want to have their sex toys at their fingertips, right?

Head on over to FunWares and pick up your own Petite Plush Pillow. Remember, FunWares ships quickly and discreetly and has great prices!

Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser Review

For those of use who enjoy using ice cubes during foreplay and sex, PinkCherry.com has a rather ingenious little product called the Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser.

Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser

The Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser come in three pieces and is very easy to use. There is the stopper, the base, and the plunger. Simply attach the stopper to the base, fill the base with water up to the inner lip, and freeze for three to four hours. When you are ready for play, remove the Teaser from the freezer and pop off the stopper. Give it about two to three minutes, then stick the plunger in the top and push down firmly to begin ejecting the ice. Remember those frozen push pops you had as a kid? It’s the same concept. Out of the base pops your little icicle, all ready to go. As the ice melts, push gently down on the stopper to slide out a bit more. Easy peasy.

The Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser is a great device to torture and tease your partner without freezing your fingertips or getting your hands very wet. I enjoy using the Teaser with the icicle just poking out of the base. This way I can feel added sensation from the silicone bumps on the bottom of the base. The silicone also insulates the ice to some degree and helps it last longer as eventually the icicle melts to the point where the it slides right out of the base. Ooops! When I try to grip the ice more firmly through the base to keep it from slipping it tends to squirt out the bottom. Unfortunately this happens more quickly than I would like, but perhaps I am being unrealistic. After all, it is ice and ice melts.

The Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser is made in China by California Exotics and is 100% silicone. Yay Cal Exotics! This makes the Ice Glacial Teaser very easy to care for and clean. Not only can you use antibacterial soap and water, your favorite toy cleaner, or a 10% bleach solution with this product, as it has no mechanical parts, the silicone can be boiled for 3-5 minutes for sterilization purposes.

The Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser comes in a small plastic bag with a little foldout user manual inside its packaging box. The box is on the large side. You could fit about four Ice Glacial Teasers in it rather than just the one, which makes it less than useful for storage. Additionally, as is typical of California Exotics products, the box is not at all discreet. However, as the Ice Glacial Teaser is small and flexible, it is very easily stored in a small ziploc or on its own in your toy chest. Just be sure it isn’t smushed up against any other silicone toys as they may stick together and not come unstuck. Also be sure to thoroughly clean and dry your Teaser after each use (as well as cleaning it before sticking it in the freezer) before storing it.

The instruction manual suggests using boiled water to get clear ice. However, I’ve used water directly from the tap and it was just fine. The manual also informs us there are different “taste packages” available to flavor the ice. I’ve not seen these taste packages anywhere and surely you can add your own flavors to your water before freezing it. In fact you can make teeny popsicles with any flavoring you want with the Foreplay Ice Glacial teaser. My mom used to make me orange juice popsicles when I was a kid. Though orange juice ice would get sticky when it melts…blech.

Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser Pros:
• Simple to use
• Silicone
• Easy to clean
• Works for approximately 10 – 20 minutes

Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser Cons:
• Requires planning
• Only makes one little icicle

At first I was uncertain about the Foreplay Ice Glacial Teaser because the ice seemed to melt very quickly. However, as I experimented more and learned the trick of insulating the icicle within the silicone, I was pleasantly surprised at how long it lasted. My high score is almost 20 minutes with one little icicle, much more than I expected! This is a fun little product that adds to partner playtime and keeps the tormentor’s fingers almost dry and warmish during play. Of course, I want it to work longer because I love the idea, but how long can one really expect an ice cube to last anyway? Now that the weather is warming up, I’m thinking the Ice Glacial Teaser will be seeing some serious action.
