Our September staff picks are up and, as usual, good taste abounds. Check the full posts out here but some teasers for you…

From Audrey in Seattle, the crafty Clone-A-Willy kit:

Of all my sex toy purchases, this is the best investment I have made; not only do I now have a personalized dildo, I also have a memento of a very good time!

From Darlinda in New York City, the lovely Mona:

After working at Babeland for 5 years and trying tons of vibrators, I had decided that I didn’t like internal vibration. Then came Mona! The low vibration is perfect for internal use — it feels almost human, and the curvature makes it easy to reach my G-spot.

From Tracy in New York City, it’s back to school with the Smart Balls:

I always forget to do my kegel exercises, and they really do work for strengthening orgasms, so I got some Babeland Silicone Smart Balls. Now, I just stick ‘em in and they do all the work for me; there’s even a pleasant little rumbling sensation down there when I move around.

From Siobhan in Oakland, the gorgeous Simply Blown Plugs:

It looks like a work of art and it’s available in many colors. Plus, glass is amazing in that you can change the temperature yourself for added fun.

From Phoebe in Oakland, the revving good time of the RO-80mm:

This is my go-to vibe for the shower, every time. It’s waterproof, virtually silent, and the shape delivers pinpoint vibration, which I love for clit stimulation.

From Krista in Oakland, a beginners favorite – the Beginners Strap-On Kit:

If only all of life could be so simple and perfect! BabeLube to slather up the pretty silicone dildo, a little vibe to add to the wearer’s fun, extra O-rings in case you want to change out to a larger or smaller dildo… this is my first recommendation to anyone looking for their first strap-on.

Sleek, curved and pink or purple have been the lastest fads in sex toy design over the past few years. Although many of these toys are absolutely fantastic, I was thrilled to see something new coming out – the playful, colorful line of vibrators from Toyfriends.

The Toyfriends toys offer a range of different types of stimulation, from bumby, to tickly rabbit ears, to focused sensations to a nice hug of a curve. The toys are also bigger than they might seem at first glance, they fit snugly in the hand. Not only that, but they are fully waterproof and they have two vibration speeds and three pulsation speeds. Their silicone material makes them easy to clean and take care of. Plus, as I mentioned above, these toys bring some playfulness to the more serious-minded toys we’ve been seeing recently. I know I’m ready to go!

Which Toyfriend would you pick and why?
