Most men reading this have used the same hand, the same grip and the same pace for years. There is nothing wrong with that. But part of what I do here is show you what else is on the table, and every so often something fun turns up that could really spice things up.
This one is called the Thermos, a heated automatic male masturbator Sohimi sent me to try. The name fits the second you see it. It looks like a flask. It warms up, it thrusts on its own, and it is quiet enough to use with someone in the next room.
Here is what it does.
The heat is the first thing you notice. Many warming toys just give you one hot patch, but this one runs 10 internal warming strips 360° around the inside, so the whole sleeve warms evenly. If you use the app, you can pre-warm it to a realistic 107°F (42°C) around body temperature before you start, so it is ready the moment you are.
Then there is the movement. It thrusts by itself and you set the speed. Slow and building, or fast and relentless, whatever you are in the mood for. It is stronger than it looks, up to about 550 strokes a minute at the top end, and you will want to hold on to it once it gets going.
For something that powerful, it is very quiet. Under 48 decibels, softer than most conversations. Privacy matters to the men I write for, so this is a big selling point.
Three sleeves come in the box, each with a different internal texture, one built around oral, one vaginal, one anal. You swap them depending on what you feel like that night. And because there are three, you always have a clean dry one waiting while another dries off.
Cleaning is simple. The sleeve pulls out and turns fully inside out, so you can wash every ridge and leave it to dry. Be sure to always use a water-based lubricant only. Silicone lube damages the silicone sleeve over time, and you do not want to ruin the texture that makes it feel like anything.
The app is where you can unlock the full pleasure potential. You can build your own thrusting pattern and save it. So, if you’re working on lasting longer, or teaching your body to sit near the edge without tipping over, a rhythm you control gives you something measurable to practise with. You can hand control to a partner too, from the next room or the other side of the world, and sync it to music or a video if that tickles your fancy.
The practical bits. It charges over USB-C, takes about three hours to fill, and gives you roughly fifty minutes of play, which is 2-5 sessions for most men.
If you have spent years using one firm, fast, dry grip, your body learns to answer to that and not much else. Bring in warmth, changing pressure and a texture you did not create yourself, and you widen the range of what you can feel. That is what a toy like this is for. Not to replace your hand. To remind your body it has more than one setting.
