Welcome to the EdenFantasys review program
If you just signed up and you’re wondering what to do from here, write some reviews! These should be of products you’ve used in the past, or things you just ordered… they don’t have to be from our site originally. You have to write at least two reviews to be considered for an upgrade, but I encourage you to write freely, comment on other reviews, talk to people in the forums, etc. Check out the guidelines posted below before you start. Be part of the community!
If you’ve been around for awhile, thanks for sticking around through all the restructuring and delays. We are in fact on a regular schedule again, though still catching up from that break. Check out the detailed review guidelines below, and welcome back!
Review Guidelines
Before writing: Before you sit down to write about your new toy, you’ve played with it on your own, with a partner (if you have one)- hopefully more than once! Keep in mind the material and associated cleaning concerns.
Title: This is the first place you’ll set the tone for your review. Titles will now be part of the review process (formerly they were automatically generated as the name of the item)- so use it! Make your title funny, serious, whatever you’d like, just remember it adds to your description. Please keep length to six words or less.
Body: What is your favorite quality or feature of the toy?
How well did it work for its intended use? Are there other ways to use it?
What are your sensory experiences of it- look, feel, taste, smell, sound?
How does your body react to it? What part did it play in your sexual experience?
Did you use it in conjunction with other toys?
What material is it made of, and how does that affect use? Cleaning?
A note on materials: please do your research in the toy material (simply click on the material name in toy profile and read about it on our site!) and be accurate in your reviews. For example, if you talk about sharing jelly toys, also mention that you cover them when doing so for health reasons (because you do, right?). If a toy has silicone in it, mention that silicone lube is not safe for use with that toy.
For couples: We love having partner reviews! Keep in mind, though, to speak for your own experience, and have your partner do the same.
These questions are suggestions- a beginning point, if you will. Please don’t feel that you need to write direct answers to them (but do include this information), and don’t be limited by them! And remember, this is an adult site, so feel free to be specific and explicit in your language/descriptions. This review is a chance for you to share (and others to read) about personal experiences with our toys- invaluable information that can’t be found in toy descriptions or elsewhere.
Experience: This is a new optional section of the review. If you have a story to share, or some specific tips on how a toy works best, put it here! This kind of information can also be incorporated into your main review, but feel free to use this section for short, stand-alone stories about an item.
Pros: The best couple points about the toy- physical features and experience-wise.
Cons: What takes away from this toy? What could be improved on? Again, just a couple points about the item.
Summary: Rather than repeating what you’ve already said in your review, give a compelling reason why this item is or isn’t worth it. What was fabulous or disappointing? Or, is it simply not that exciting?
The Summary, Pros and Cons should reflect your overall impression of the item- they stand out in reviews and are influential for readers.
Ratings: Vroom reflects the power/intensity of a toy, while Bee indicates its noise level. Generally speaking, these ratings are only applicable to toys that vibrate/have mechanical parts. Every once in awhile, though, these ratings work for other toys- we just had a review of a masturbation sleeve that got a rating of four bees because of the noise it makes in use (with lube, etc.). If these ratings AREN’T useful, just select N/A.
