With their site alone being valued at something in the range of 4 billion dollars, it's safe to say that Pornhub is pretty much the Facebook of pornographic websites.
That means that they have a lot of money to throw around and they invest in a lot of various entrepreneurial endeavors to help their brand notoriety.
This has ranged from philanthropic efforts to raise breast cancer awareness, paying for people's lawn care, and even planting over 15,000 trees for a 2014 Arbor Day promotion. Being so heavily entrenched in all things masturbation, it was only a matter of time until they decided to get into the sex toy industry themselves and start being a one stop shop for everything that involves wanking.
Pornhub Toys is the newest addition to their list of business ventures, so with them being at the forefront of streaming, camming, VR, and cheeky Twitter posts, they're essentially as well rounded as possible.
Ultimately this piqued my interest as Pornhub has been, as much as it is weird to admit, a pretty constant fixture in my life. What can I say, I like porn.
In case you haven't seen it already, here's the Pornhub Toys promotional video that originally got my attention:
My first question when I saw the new sex toy line launched by Pornhub is the same question you're probably wondering.
Is this just another cash grab for Pornhub or will their toys be able to compete with popular brands? Better yet, are their toys even worth buying?
To answer these questions, we checked out their site and ordered some of their products to get to the bottom it.
Pornhub Toys: A First Glance
In typical fashion the Pornhub colors of black and orange are featured heavily on the site. It looks like your standard e-commerce site and they are just in their infancy at the time of writing this post.
There's a lot of benefits it seems right now to them being new to the game which is something I'd like to share with my readers, since right now they are offering some pretty good deals that can't be found elsewhere. First off, all orders over $50 come with free shipping, so as long as you buy at least two items you'll probably qualify for free shipping.
Also interesting is that they have some popular toys from manufacturer Kiiroo that are just rebranded in Pornhub colors with a new name. Right now, many of these toys are on sale for a price much lower than what Kiiroo charges, for instance you can save $25 on their take on the Onyx 2.
At the time of writing this, their stock is fairly limited, but I'd like to see that change in the future. What I hope for Pornhub Toys to be is a reputable seller of quality sex toys. Right now there is one major issue when it comes to buying sex toys online: quality & safety. Let me explain: when you buy sex toys on a site like Amazon or Ebay, you risk being sold either a knockoff product of dubious origin or a product made from unsafe materials meant to make a quick buck. This means that to get a really good sex toy that won't end up hurting you, you'll have to go explicitly for tried and true vendors & manufacturers and this usually means a higher price point.
Right now, Pornhub Toys offers a wide range of sex toys that go as low as $20 to as high as $200, so if they start operating as a clearing house for reputable sex toys of all makes and models they are poised to help a lot of up and coming toy manufacturers have their products available for sale on a platform they can trust. Despite what you might think, Pornhub actually has a fair bit of integrity, I'd like to hope they don't want to be known as people who sell harmful toys.
Currently there are three main categories available on the site:
Pornhub Toys For Men
The male toys category has anal toys, strokers, cock rings, and a few interactive toys. All of these toys are made out of TPE or silicone so it looks like the body-safe component is being satisfied quite nicely. Any toys that have plastic components are branded with custom Pornhub colors, which in my mind further increases the chances that these toys aren't absolute junk.
Here's a few of their toys just to give you an idea of what their bread and butter is like at the moment:
The majority of it right now is your standard strokers, but all of the strokers pictured have different internal textures and things going for them. Some are ribbed, some aren't, others have a fancy place to hold your hands or a clear texture going for them. They're all worth taking a look at, and they all seem to be more than functional strokers at a fraction of the price that the more luxury brand strokers like Fleshlight retail for.
What else is there?
We got ourselves a standard looking butt plug decorated in Pornhub colors, but it ticks all of the boxes a good butt plug should. There's a nice flared base, entirely body-safe silicone production, it all looks like they've done their research as opposed to just blindingly riding on the popularity of their brand.
Nice!
There's a lot more than just that, but that's the main offerings right now for their male toys. Their site is still heavily in its infancy though, so who knows what's going to come next. Once they get a proper foothold in the adult toy sphere I can only imagine what they'll be pumping out for all of us to pump in to.
Pornhub Toys For Women
On the other side of the gender spectrum are the female toys. These are some anal toys (all of the same options as the male toys), vibrators, and a few interactive options. All of them are made from body-safe silicone and a few are even re-branded toys from other manufacturers that are wearing the Pornhub colors. Their offerings for females are currently way better than what they have for the males, if I'm being completely honest. There's way more products explicitly branded in Pornhub colors and they're nearly all fairly advanced electronic toys.
Here's just an idea of what's on offer:
So they've really covered the entire spectrum of what a lady would like. That rabbit vibrator in the middle giving you the "I'm the captain now" look is one we've tried ourselves, keep reading to see what we thought of it. Besides that, they have it pretty much all covered from bullet vibrators to clit vibrators and especially some perfectly curved G-spot vibrators.
You'll notice that almost all of the female toys have the Pornhub colors to them, but very few of their current male offerings do. I like knowing that Pornhub was willing to put their colors & reputation on these toys, it's just nice.
Toys For Couples
Next is the couples section which is just all of the toys from both gender sections and a lot of high quality bondage gear, with reasonable price tags.
All of the stuff in this section is far, far away from what you'd consider vanilla. Right now there's a lot of overlap in the couples section with the toys themselves, with that cock ring for instance showing up in the male section and the couple's section. Hopefully, the future is bright with things like couples vibrators showing up over time.
So from what I can gather, Pornhub is trying to break into the sex toy industry and right now they are satisfying a lot of the criteria that makes a sex toy shop worth shopping at. These are: only selling body-safe toys, offering these products at a good price, and being a reputable storefront.
Toys That We Recognize
There's got to be a partnership with Kiiroo somewhere in the mix here, because there's very clearly a rebranded Kiiroo Onyx 2 on display in their storefront. This means that Kiiroo has not only partnered with Fleshlight for their Superskin sleeve, but have now partnered with porn behemoth Pornhub to further raise awareness for what they're products are. That's a partnership between the #1 name in male masturbators and the #1 name in online pornography.
It isn't called the Kiiroo Onyx 2 anymore, though. It goes by the name of the Virtual Blowbot Turbo Stroker. I personally love the Onyx 2 as it is not really a stroker at all. It works best when your manhood is fully inserted into the toy and then you let it do all of the work on it's own.
The full review can be found here and with a quick look you'll see the only difference between the two products is that the Pornhub one has black and orange as opposed to Kiiroo's black and silver. Personally, I like the look of the Pornhub one more.
My Wife's Top Picks
The following is written by Angela:
While I haven't had the luxury of trying very many of the Pornhub Toys line yet, this one has so far been my favorite. The Virtual Rabbit Vibrator has some very interesting design features that I think make it extremely worthwhile.
Notice the various ridges along the top side of the toy? All of these work wonders for wicking my natural lubricant into them and also acting as distinct pleasure plateaus that make the experience absolutely awesome.
On top of that, the double-finger design of the clitoral vibrator arm wrap around my clitoris snugly for some stimulation that always makes me crane my head back in enjoyment.
With a rechargeable battery and the ability to sync it to Pornhub interactive videos, it's not just a Pornhub rebrand, it's a toy that works great, period.
The Hitachi vibrator of old made the wand vibrator practically an institution out of female masturbation. Women who previously wouldn't dare buy their own dildos were screaming out in delight nationwide.
The Supercharge Wand is great modernization of this toy, much in the same way the Domi is. There's a staggering amount of different modes on this, 20 to be exact. From quickly rotating pleasure to stationary rumbling that'll make a glass of water fall off a nightstand, it's absolutely fantastic.
Some of these 20 settings aren't made for the normal experience, but instead for the myriad of attachments that come with the device. There's a rabbit vibrator attachment, anal bead attachment and a spiky-head attachment. It's four toys in one, easily. All 20 settings have 8 different speeds which go from hardly noticeable to almost too noticeable.
Decent battery life caps this off as an extremely worthwhile and functional toy from Pornhub.
My Top Picks For Men
The Blowbot Stroker is a pretty decent addition to the vibrating male masturbator market.
It's main features is that the inside of the toy vibrates at varying intensities but also can be synced up to Pornhub Interactive videos for intensity that matches the video you're watching. The inner texture is soft, pliable, and transfer the vibrations nicely. There are a total of 6 vibrators inside the toy, two on each side on the top, middle, and bottom of the toy. Most men will be able to take advantage of all three vibrators and how they're placed means that there's no weak spots anywhere.
Since it's USB rechargeable on top of all of that, there's no reason not to keep this close to your computer and with some of your favorite videos on standby.
This product is a solid option in my opinion and feels fantastic, Pornhub Toys did a great job with this one.
If you're in the market for a male masturbator that does basically all of the work for you, than this is a great choice. It's unique to the other automatic blowjob machines I've tried in the past, it feels awesome.
The Virtual Blowbot Turbo is in fact a rebranded Kiiroo Onyx 2, but I wouldn't ever go as far as to call it just a rebranded Onyx 2.
The Blowbot Turbo is a fantastic toy in its own right and gives for an experience unlike most male masturbators. Inside are ten rings that contract and expand depending on what settings you have them on.
The "virtual" part of the name comes from the fact that it can be synced up to Pornhub Interactive videos, meaning it's way better for putting yourself inside a scene than just about any other toy that comes to mind.
It has a stellar battery life and recharges via USB. What I like most about using the Blowbot Turbo is the completely hands-free experience besides having to hold it in place. It does all of the work, and the sleeve insert is made by Fleshlight, so it does that work well.
For guys that are in the market for a male masturbator which does a great job at simulating oral sex, this one is perfect for you. It's not the cheapest product on the market, however, it's worth its price tag.
My Final Thoughts
If you made it this far, you might as well have a peak at their website, PornhubToys.com. They have a pretty impressive product line for both men and women. Overall, I think moving into the sex toy market will turn out to be a smart move for Pornhub. They've certainly came out of the gates running with their initial launch.
My wife and I are really excited for what Pornhub Toys can end up being. There is a serious lack of reputable and serious toy storefronts on the internet that care about their brand and safety above all else. It isn't always easy to trust the site you're buying from.
The biggest issue is that a lot of reputable shops are one manufacturer's dedicated site, which ends up limiting the amount of total products you can purchase from said reputable vendor. Since Pornhub is a household name, I can imagine nearly all of these sex toy creators are going to want to partner with them eventually with their own Pornhub-styled iteration of their famous toys. Eventually, this should make Pornhub Toys the perfect one stop shop for everybody's sex needs.
Will this actually be the case? We don't know, but we hope so. Only time will tell.
