Sex Toy Review: The Double Entendre Subscription Box by Unbound Box

The Product: The Double Entendre Box by Unbound Box

The Verdict: (out of 5)

Subscription boxes are all the rage right now. You can get a box full of literally anything you want - luxury foods, clothing and, yes, even sex toys. I’ve always been a big fan of ordering myself boxes that would let me relive the feeling of getting a surprise birthday gift so, naturally, when I was offered an opportunity to review a box full of hedonistic delight, I jumped at it. Unbound Box aims to deliver "a quarterly box of the most covetable erotic products." From the anticipation of it arriving on my doorstep (I took a sneak peek at what I’d be receiving) to the blissful aftermath of testing each and every product multiple times, this box did not disappoint.

The Unwrapping of the Unbound Box

My roommates gathered around the dining room table and oohed and aahed as I pulled product after product from the midnight blue box. (What can I say? We’re all very open, probably due to the thin walls and close proximity of our bedrooms). The packaging was colorful, fun and curiosity-inducing, which made the unveil feel like a party. The box included:

• Sliquid Strawberry Pomegranate Lubricant
• Je Joue Ooh Vibrator Collection, which includes a Pebble vibe, Classic Dildo and your choice of Cock Ring OR Butt Plug, plus a large motor to power all these attachments.
• Handcuff Bangles
• Cocktail Pastilles
• Let's Play/Go Away Door Hanger

It's a lot of good stuff! Plus, individually, these products will cost you more than $300, while the Double Entendre Box is sold for $110. The price of the box drops to $65 if you purchase a quarterly subscription.

Once everything was unwrapped, my partner and I headed to our bedroom. And, no, our roommates were not invited.

Handcuff Bangles

These cute, gold-plated bangles do double duty as handcuffs. I wore them out to dinner to get a feel for how they’d function as teasingly kinky jewelry (my partner knew what they were). I loved it. It was like having a sexy little secret that only we knew about, which made us eager to finish our drinks and head home. True to Unbound’s promise that this bling is also functional and secure, these cuffs held up through some of the rougher moments of our evening too.

Sliquid Flavored Lubricant

While I’ve acquiesced to my partner’s request to use lube on occasion (he’s a big fan of messy play), it’s never been something I’ve enjoyed. After using just a squeeze of Sliquid’s 4.2-ounce bottle of strawberry pomegranate lubricant on both myself and my partner, I’m a little more open to it. It tastes like candy, which had us both even more eager to use our mouths on each other, and it worked well with the Je Joue Ooh vibrator (on me) and butt plug (on him).

Je Joue Ooh Vibrator Collection

Be warned: these toys are addicting. Don’t let the motor’s size deceive you - it packs a lot more punch than it looks capable of producing. Plus, it is designed to fit into all of the attachments to power them, providing four vibes in one. The fact that it also comes with a USB charger is a huge plus. The vibrator's three speeds ranged from a soft rumble to an intense buzz, but this vibe does it right, and doesn't make me numb at higher speeds (something I've experienced with other vibes.)

All of the attachments feel and look high-quality. They are made of a nice, soft, body-safe silicone with just the right about of "give." The G-spot vibrator was the perfect length and, with some manual clitoral stimulation, had me orgasming after only a few minutes of use. I can’t say the same for the butt plug. My partner and I took turns with it (with washes in-between), and while it felt full and stimulating for me, he enjoyed the sensation but didn’t feel like it stimulated his prostate. The cock ring was a similar story. I loved the vibration of it on my clitoris when I was on top, but my partner felt it was a little snug and not quite as pleasurable. Again, these toys do seem to be well-designed; they just weren't the best fit for us. The Pebble vibrator was my favorite Je Joue toy, by far. It gave just the right amount of stimulation and has been the cause of a few sets of multiple orgasms. All in all, I’m really impressed with the quality of all of the toys - they’re quickly becoming staples in our bedroom.
