G-Spot Stimulating Intimate Part Spreader with Adjustable Clamps

I was super excited when I received the email telling me this G-Spot Stimulating Intimate Part Spreader with Adjustable Clamps was on the way for testing, so big thanks to Lovehoney. The reason for my excitement was this; I have and hate the original, clampless version, and this incarnation of it potentially addressed one of the main problems I encountered, which was that the original part spreader didn’t spread my parts. But the fact is, they’re both much of a muchness. All the things I disliked about the original are here – the deep ridged silicone that feels like a cheese grater, the too short to stay put insertable length of around 3 inches that makes it scrape uncomfortably against my pubic bone, and the awkwardness of getting it situated correctly without a second pair of (patient and determined) hands. Try as I might, I can't figure out how the clamps are supposed to aid anything. They lie flat against my labia, and they don't like being twisted (the clamps, not my labia, lol). Flying solo, I found trying to use the clamps after inserting the horseshoe end near enough impossible. They popped off, the insertable part popped out and it all twisted around – nightmare. Clamping then inserting was easier, yet still hugely problematic. Trying to stretch the insertable portion down to my vaginal opening once clamped in place pretty much ripped my lips off, and when I did get it in there was that horrible scrape. Lube is essential as the silicone is quite draggy, especially combined with the ridges, but once the lube spreads to the labia it causes the clamps to slip off too, then trying to re-clamp myself with wet fingers maddened me to previously unknown levels. Another issue this shares with its clampless relative, is that once you’ve bent it out of shape to try to accommodate your anatomy, there’s no getting it back again. I found myself mangling it further and further until it became barely recognisable from its original state. To be honest, I’m starting to think it’s me. I’m convinced my labia resemble an inflatable swimming armband, and it’s possibly going to take more than a few inches of silicone wrapped wire to hold them apart. Women with more streamlined labia might find they get along with this, but all I can do is suggest fuller lipped ladies steer clear.
