My Experience With Bondage Boutique Pinwheel

My Personal Experiences with Bondage Boutique Pinwheel

First Impressions

When opening the package for the Bondage Boutique Pinwheel I was pleasantly surprised by how heavy it was. I was expecting it to feel more like a cheap, plastic toy. It’s surprisingly beautiful. The metal is shiny, the handle is curved and textured in a way to fit comfortably in my hand. I was really impressed.

Pleasurable Pain

I was excited and nervous to try this out. I am a recovered self-harmer and always have to be mindful of my mood and the tools I’m using when I go into something that has the potential for pain or to draw blood. The Bondage Boutique Pinwheel is just enough pain to be pleasurable without tipping me into a bad headspace.

Love The Feel

My partner and I experimented with different parts of my body and pressures. I at no time felt like I was in danger of bleeding. There was just the right balance of pain with pleasure. Small indents were left, which was great for me. This tin tool is going to quickly become one of my favorite things to bring out.

Pros
Easy to adjust pressure
Price is great
Beautiful feel
Cons
The spikes will get things stuck in them easily
Other reviews have said it starts to squeak after a lot of use
Spikes aren't extremely sharp

Design

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Design

This pinwheel exceeded all of my expectations. It's heavy enough to be comfortable. The curve sits amazingly in my hand. It's even 100% silent. I was prepared for a little bit of noise. Maybe with a lot of use that will change; so far nothing.

Ease of Use

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Ease of Use

The Bondage Boutique Pinwheel is so comfortable. It's easy to maneuver to create different pressure points. It doesn't stick at all when rolling across the skin. There were no challenges in using this.

Quality

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Quality

This pinwheel is made so well. It looks and acts like an extremely expensive toy. I was expecting something so much different. I was so pleased with it. I am not afraid that it will fall apart after a few uses or start to stick.

Price

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Price

The Bondage Boutique Pinwheel is worth every penny. The price is part of why I had low expectations. This is in the lower range of other ones I have seen with better performance.

Performance

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Performance

This pinwheel performs like a dream. It gives just the right amount of pain with pleasure, allows for controlled pressure, and looks beautiful while doing it.

Packaging

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Packaging

The Bondage Boutique Pinwheel arrived in a pretty plain white box. I would have liked to have had something I could keep this in, instead of cardboard that won't last. I did appreciate that it was wrapped tightly. Something that will be digging into my skin, I want to keep as protected as possible.

Materials and care

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Materials and care

The pinwheel is nickel-free stainless steel. It has shiny metal made to not tarnish and can easily be cleaned with soap and water. Because of the stainless steel, I do expect fingerprints to show up over time.

Special feature

Bondage Boutique Pinwheel Special feature

Compared to other Wartenberg-style pinwheels, this one doesn’t feel as cheap. I enjoy the medial style and pinwheel shape. Others have spikes that are much closer together, and I haven’t enjoyed them as much. The weight and stainless steel makes this one a top favorite for me.

Recommended for the intermediate user

The Bondage Boutique Pinwheel was rated 60 out of 100 meaning that it is most suitable for someone with some experience
