Hot Octopuss PULSE Duo Remote Control Vibrating Male Masturbator

I was lucky enough to be offered a chance to test this in exchange for an honest review, thanks Lovehoney. I was really looking forward to receiving a high end or at least high price item and comparing it to other similar devices I have bought before. As can be seen in the pictures the toy comes with watch like wristband devices to control the vibration strength and patterns, one for him and one for her with a small silver or rose gold ring around them to differentiate between them. There are also buttons on the side of the toy and a picture only leaflet explaining how to use both. This isn't particularly easy to follow, it's definitely not a quick glance to familiarise yourself and needs a bit of studying. I used the device alone initially, sneaking into the shower room - the device is waterproof. Geez this is one loud toy, even with the shower running I thought everyone in the house would be coming to see who was using a pneumatic drill upstairs. The source of the noise is the movement to the "power plate", a raised area that sits against the end of the penis and generates the magic. This really is powerful and the design of the toy allows you to position it in exactly the correct place. The wings and body of the toy also carry some of the vibrations and the overall sensation of being wrapped in a powerful toy soon tipped me over the edge, despite the loud noise and concerns of others in the house hearing. You often read of vibrators being classed as rumbly or buzzy and this would definitely fall into the rumbly category, it has serious power. A few days later I whipped it out in front of Mrs N and explained what we needed to test. She was actually turned off by the technology and not that interested in trying it when we turned on the vibrations designed to please her - these were very much of the buzzy variety and she's a rumbly kinda girl. We carried on but she fairly quickly wanted to move on so not a huge success as a couples toy at the first try. I think the noise was off putting for her. I'm pleased with this and it has become my current favourite solo toy when I am not concerned about the noise of it causing any issues. Easier to clean than a Fleshlight and offers a different sort of experience. Thanks for the opportunity to try it Brenna.

Never written a toy review before but I feel so passionately about this product that I think other people should know about it. I bought this toy to try with my partner....we have an issue where he always cums way before me. I’d heard that the PULSE DUO LUX can give a simultaneous orgasm so....obv I wanted to see if this was true! The toy is super elegant and beautiful, with watch strap remotes that you can wear on your wrist, or pop out of the straps and hold. It comes in a lovely soft silk storage bag and v cool packaging. The toy was charged when we received it and so we used it straightaway. Cut to the chase: first simultaneous orgasm we’ve ever experienced. I could cry!!! We put it onto my partner’s d*ck and played around till we got it to a level he liked. Then I sat on top of him with the underside against me. I had his controller and he had mine. It was crazy-awesome. We were turning the vibrations up and down and teasing eachother for ages. It was incredible that we could stimulate eachother like that and control it to the point where we could orgasm together.... We’ve used this toy at least five times since it arrived and it has totally transformed foreplay for us....I’m addicted!

The toy is packed in a cardboard box which has information and illustrations on the outside. Inside is a recyclable cardboard carton containing the masturbator, two remote controllers, a charging lead, a black drawstring storage bag and two small leaflets. The masturbator itself is quite heavy but feels sturdy and well made. It is made in black silicone with ‘wings’ which wrap around the penis. The outside has a ribbed area for clitoral stimulation, 2 control buttons on each side and a charging point. Inside there is a small raised circular area which is the vibrating section which stimulates the penis. The toy is fully sealed and waterproof. The remote controller mounts are designed to look like watches so that they can be worn on the wrist for convenience. I am guessing that they are bluetooth but there is no mention of this in the specifications. In any case they connect instantly without the need to ‘pair’ them. The charging lead has a standard USB plug at one and and a magnetic connector at the other. This type of connection is now becoming commonplace on fully waterproof toys. The storage bag easily holds all the supplied items. As soon as we unpacked the toy we put it on charge. The charging indicator light is on the magnetic connector rather than being in the masturbator itself. A red light indicates that the unit is charging and this changes to green when the charge is complete. We set aside some time to familiarise ourself with the toy and it was just as well that we did! In order, I imagine, to be multilingual the operating instructions are totally pictorial with no text at all. This makes them less than helpful. The sequence of button presses is particularly difficult to follow. Additionally this toy has two completely independent vibrating regions controlled by the two remote units. In the instructions these are referred to as Controller A and Controller B but there are no identifying markings whatsoever on the actual controllers. In fact they are identical apart from the fact that on one unit the bezel was silver and on the second unit it had a slight gold tint. As usual in such circumstances we simply tried out various button combinations till we had worked out all the functions. It turned out that the controller with the silver bezel operated the internal vibrator and it’s patterns and the one with the gold bezel controlled the external vibrator functions. In fact the controllers themselves work well with no lost connections. Once we had established the basics of the operations we tried the unit out. Initially we used it as a solo male masturbator so, using water based lubricant, I slid my penis inside. The instructions gave no indication about which was the top of the unit but the illustrations on the box show that it can be used in either orientation depending on whether it is used solo or as a couples vibrator. With the pointed region at the top, the internal vibrating plate lined up exactly with my glans and frenulum so I used it this way. I started with the plain vibrations. There are 8 speeds of vibration controlled by the + and - buttons on the unit or the remote. They are all very powerful and very intense but also very loud. The unit was so loud, in fact, that it was difficult to concentrate on the amazing feelings the vibrations were producing. The internal plate vibrating against my glans and frenulum felt really good though. I worked my way through the speeds and patterns to see how they all felt and also stroked the unit up and down my penis to find the most effective spot. To be honest when I experimented with the patterns I found them frustrating although they may work well for people who enjoy edging. Eventually I settled on the steady speeds in the middle speed range and gently moved the unit up and down my penis building, gradually, to a very intense orgasm. Overall I was very impressed with this toy as I do not usually orgasm with strokers or masturbators. I could tell from the start though that this one was going to work for me as the feelings were so intense. A couple of days later we tried the toy in its second role as a couples vibrator. As before I used water based lubricant to ease my penis inside the sleeve then my wife straddled me and the toy in conventional ‘cowgirl’ fashion. I set the internal vibrator going first then my wife switched on the external vibrator and settled down on the toy. Unfortunately things did not go as well as we had hoped. Although the internal vibrations are powerful and intense the external vibrations are buzzy and shallow. They are not focussed at any particular point on the toy either so my wife found it difficult to position herself correctly for the best stimulation. Even more problematic though was the fact that the sleeve would not stay in place. It kept rolling to one side moving both vibrators away from the

I was sent this toy to test and I had high hopes - both for the pulse as a solo and a couple's toy but it didn't quite hit the mark on either front. Firstly, the good - this toy comes in nice packaging and does have a high quality look and feel. The device itself is easy to use and charging is also fast and simple. Turn on the pulse plate and the duo gives out some really nice pulses that you can vary in strength and rhythm till you find just the right one. With a bit of lube and you can slide this on your penis and let it do all the work - the pulsing is a really nice change from basic vibration! Plus in addition your girlfriend can use the vibrating side for her own fun - with or without you! The 'ok but' - I like the idea of the two remotes but it could be clearer which is for the main 'male' bit of the toy and which is for the 'female' side. You can't see it in the pictures but the metal ring around each pop out control is a different colour - silver for the man and a kind of rose gold for the girl. The controls are a good addition but I really don't see the point of the watch straps - you can just both hold a control in your hand and use it that way - pretending you have a new smart watch feels a little redundant for a product like this when you want to be in the moment. I actually felt a bit stupid reaching over to play with the controller in the strap - it feels a step too far. And 'the noisy' - make no mistake, the power plate is loud - and not in a normal vibrator noise kind of way. It's more like a piston hitting a small drum kit kind of noise and is really hard to ignore. I would say the best thing to do is get your girlfriend to sit on top if you want to make the noise more bearable. And finally - this toy is okay for solo play but there are better toys out there for men. As a couple's play toy it really depends on what you want - I enjoy mutual masturbation if I can see what my partner is doing - this toy sits between you but there is no real connection with your partner in the way I would like. However, I can see how it would be a great choice if you have issues maintaining an erection or if you/your partner don't particularly (or can't) enjoy actual penetration. If you don't mind the noise of course!
