My Experience With Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel

My Personal Experiences with Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel

I’ll be honest, my wife and I aren’t into a lot of pain when it comes to our foreplay. However, we were curious to give this Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes pinwheel a try because the idea of varying from a soft tickling sensation to something a little sharper was interesting. We tested it out on our back first and immediately took it to a tougher spot like a foot. The spikes were much more abrupt than we expected. The product does feel pretty premium compared to other sex toys but the slight tickling sensation was minor and when it became sharper it was just too much for our experience. Having said that I would not discount it for those who do appreciate some pain sensations.

Design

Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel Design

The Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel looks the part for couples wanting to get edgier. The grooved handle was slender but felt comfortable to wield for delicate finesse and the polished metal gave it a nice medical feel. My only critique is the wheel wobbled a little and squeaked while rolling, but it didn’t take away from the appeal.

Ease of Use

This toy is pretty self explanatory on the use. I would recommend testing it on tougher areas of the body first before going straight to any sensitive areas. The wheel rolled nicely, but the pressure is something you will want to test first with your partner with lots of communication. Test it in different areas to find what you like.

Quality

The polished metal makes the Fifty Shades pinwheel feel like a premium product, and is easy to use and clean. There were no signs of manufacturing on it such as sharp seams or exposed gaps — it's very smooth and well made. The spikes on the wheel felt very durable, bringing confidence for many sessions.

Price

Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel Price

I think this is appropriately priced, the materials are good quality, rarely do you get a solid metal piece like this for this price point. The experience is what you would expect from the product. It feels like it would last for years to come and go well with other similar toys. The storage bag leaves something to be desired, but that is really the only think I could fault it for on price.

Performance

Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel Performance

It worked well for the intended purpose and it felt sharp enough but not so much that we were afraid of puncturing skin. I think the wheel could use a plastic washer to stop it from squeaking and wobbling. The bag it comes with does little for storage because the spikes poke out of it immediately.

Packaging

Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel Packaging

The packaging design was classy and what you would expect for the price point. It was clear what the Fifty Shades pinwheel was and what it was made from. It definitely appeals to people familiar with the Fifty Shades of Grey series, but is reserved in appearance and would not be as bright as other designs. The package has a sophisticated look like the metallic print to match the product itself and rich blue colors to compliment.

Materials and care

Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel Materials and care

The Fifty Shades Darker Adrenaline Spikes Pinwheel is made from high quality polished metal which was a nice feel and made it easy to clean and polish with a simple rag or a microfiber cloth you would use for your glasses. The silk storage bag is thin and does not keep the spikes from poking through, so I would recommend a thicker fabric or leather to hold the almost .23” spikes in.
