Ok, quick story first. I've just had to retire my favourite toy Ella - ( https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=30970 )
through 'over use' and when trying to get a replacement LH was out of stock.
Basically within about 6 months she developed some holes/tears (and I am quite gentle with her) till eventually we had to admit defeat.
It got me to wondering about other makes/models. And if ones with 'sleaves' would help hold them together slightly better.
Can anyone recomend me something different? Whats the tenga ones like?
I have a few of the thrust ones, but fancy giving another one a go.
Hey zephron, I'm sorry to hear that poor Ella has been retired but you can move on to something bigger and better! The fleshlights are great and high quality, you will struggle to tear one no matter how rough you get. The flesh on them is great and worth the money but it may be your while just checking the sale ones if your not wanting to shell out so much as £60 is quite a commitment. The Thrust toys are brilliant and for the price you can't really beat them so I have always recommended these especially the pro range. But if your looking for something mid range then go for the PDX toys as these are amazing, they also have a suction valve which you put your finger over and it creates a vacuum which makes everything feel far tighter https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=38352 I reviewed this and it's worth every penny!
Fleshlight toys are really high quality and well made so I think they're worth the price tag. If you're not convinced, why not try one that's on offer?
Hi Zephron. I concur with LIL_KNOWN69 - the PDX Elite toys are pretty good indeed for the price. I had the privilege of testing and reviewing one - https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=38355 - and I've continued to use it a lot since, and it always satisfies.
If it is a fleshlight light your after I know the initial outlay is a lot. There are highly pleasurable and are worth paying that extra for. Don't forget you are covered by lovehoney 365 return policy if you didn't get on with it.

That was one of the first ones I saw funilly enough, and thought that it looks quite respectable, in that it wouldn't look out of place on a gentlemans nightstand too, rather than shamefully cast aside in the drawer underneath.
(In the same way that when a ladies glass toy collection can be displayed on the mantle as Objet d'art, this has the look of something like a simple vase, or modern air freshner about it.
It's one I'm now considering, many thanks. ;)

Thanks. I like the look of that too. I've a few more like ella to keep me going (Lea and Dana quickly followed, but just are never as good as the original) while I save up. 
OH has had a genuine fleshlight for a number of years, maybe 10? It seems to have held up well but is not used often these days. He would like to use it as a couple more but it scares me lol.

Ok, What does that entail? A just being nosey really, and also wondering why its scares you?
I showed some girlfriends 'ella' when I first got her and I think they liked seeing me get off, and also 'helped' as I poked out of the other side...  Which was fantastic.
But as I understand the fleshlight is like a sealed unit.

Well there are times when either I don't feel like having sex (or can't for other reasons) but I am still happy to play with him a little and give him some relief. He would like me to use the FL occasionaly.
I am scared because it's not something I have ever used, I am worried it will not be pleasurable for him or I will possibly hurt him. It's stupid really but I can't help it.

ahh, understood. Just wanted to make sure that that was what you meant, and I didnt misconstrue anything.
I think just take it easy and be gentle, and make him 'promise you' that if there is any discomfort for him that he will ask you to stop.

Went for this in the end, and with all the deals on atm I managed to stock up on some 'stocking fillers' too, and still have them for less than the full price of the blue one i 'really' wanted (because I'm weird).
Mr Spiders first Flesh Light arrived yesterday.... he loves it!
I'm wondering can the inner sleeve be taken out and replaced for different textured sleeves for the future? Sorry if this is a stupid question - but I can't find the info anywhere - tired - been up most of the night! xx
Hey lady spider, I know LH did the inserts a while back but I don’t believe they have them now. I did a quick search and couldn’t find any so it may be worth putting a note in the “pander to me thread”. You can swap and change the inserts and cases or all the fleshlights I believe, glad your partner is happy with his purchase.

I have both a Fun Zone and Fleshlight Flight Toy, both I’d recommend every time. The Fun Zone Double Pumped was the cheapest of the two but by no means the least enjoyable. Have fun!
I have 2 Fleshlights, and 2 Thrusts ( one handheld and one you can use hands free)
I try to alternate so they dont get over used and always make sure they are cleaned well and looked after! However, like yourself have been gentle with Fleshlights and they have still ended up ripping or tearing
Fleshlights are definately worth the money. You just need to check the length because banging the tip of your penis against the air / vacuum controller sucks (in more ways than one). I started with a Flite (which other than my ignorance I couldnt fault) and had this problem but the actress versions are a little longer and feel fantastic aswell.
If you google "which fleshlight" and go onto their website they explain whats best fit for what size & preference as diffrent internals do different things. Then you can come back to LH and order as they have an awesome selection. Theres a special offer if you order 2 at the moment (just ordered one for my wife to use with me that she can keep handy if the feeling takes her)
Also, if you do get one, make sore you but a tube of renewing powder. It makes a massive difference. Enjoy and I hope Ive helped!
Only sad thing is that they dont do a longer flite version.
