XCritic.com: Fun Factory Boss



I'm a fan of Fun Factory toys, so when given the chance to review the Boss for XCritic, I was quite excited. The Boss is a bit girthier than I typically go for, but as it's still smaller than my partner I decided to give it a try. I was under the impression that the Boss was a Babeland exclusive toy, but was completely baffled when I went to their site and could not locate the particular Boss I received anywhere on the website.

It came in the typical Fun Factory box, which I like. A see through window, thorough instructions, a guide to their other toys, and a sample of water based lubricant only. It is made of 100% hypoallergenic silky silicone. And it's billed as waterproof. There is a newer style battery compartment on this toy. And while it is easier to open, I have my doubts on how waterproof this truly is so I avoided to shower to be safe. It takes 4-AAA batteries (not included).

Onto the bed test! While the Boss is 5.25" in circumference, once I turned on the vibrations I was sadly underwhelmed. The vibrations are very weak. There is a boost button on the bottom to supposedly help once you start coming, or to get you over the edge, but I found the button was so hard to press down continuously to get the boost it just interfered. The head is nicely tapered up to massage the g-spot. But as this toy is so thick I can't thrust rapidly and therefore had to try to rely on the poor vibrations to climax. That climax never came.

The Boss had everything going for it, girthy silicone shaft, a nice tapered head for g-spot stimulation, a boost button to supposedly enhanced vibrations. But what is the Boss's failing spot is the fact the vibrations are weak and the boost button is more of a burden than a benefit. If the motor was better or if this thing simply didn't vibrate it'd be a recommended, but sadly I have to rate it Skip It because it just doesn't perform as it should.

Every time I read a review of the new style boss I rejoice that I ended up getting the old style with the difficult battery compartment and the dial control.

Sucks when improvements turn out to be not such an improvement.

Very helpful review. Just from the image I got very excited but from your experience, I'll definitely pass.

Adriana- does your Boss (the newer model I assume you have) suck on vibrations?
