My Experience With Monarch Swan
First Touch
From the moment I slid the Monarch Swan out of the box, my heart was aflutter with anticipation. An hour and a half later, this swan was charged and ready to go. Now, to be honest, I hadn’t expected to enjoy the flicking tongue. I’ve used another toy that was simply that, and I was not impressed. Naturally, that’s what I tried first, figuring I’d get it out of the way, right? Oh, so wrong!Second Flutter
I love the fluttering tongue feature. It totally caught me by surprise, in the best of ways. I was delighted to find that the suction was powerful and the different options left me breathless, especially in combination with the tongue. The g-spot shaft slid in with a perfect curve and the vibrational options were intensely satisfying.Glutton at Heart
I’m a glutton for pleasure, so of course I twisted the Monarch into it’s c-curve option, and took a moment to adjust for my body type. I then proceeded to lie there until the battery died, happily existing in a state of bliss. Talk about happily ever after.
Design
The Monarch is sleek in design and silky smooth to the touch. It transforms with a smooth gliding sensation and honestly, looks sexy either way. It only comes in one color, a gorgeous dark turquoise.
Ease of Use
The three buttons on this Swan are super easy to navigate. One for the suction, one for the flickering tongue, and one for the g-spot shaft. Press a button to turn one on and cycle through the different functions with each press. To turn it off, hold down for two seconds. To turn travel lock on or off, press and hold the flicking tongue button down for four seconds. When extended, you can use the g-spot shaft as a normal vibrator. Or, grip that end and use the clit suction and flicking tongue to your heart’s content. When you twist the Monarch to use both ends simultaneously, the shape of your body is going to come into play. Depending on where you want the suction, you might not enjoy this twisted position. Good thing this toy has plenty of options available, regardless.
Quality
The Monarch feels luxurious and the transformational twist evokes a sense of sensuality. It’s solid and sturdy and I don’t worry I’m going to break it when I twist, use, or charge it. This is always great, as I put high strength demands on my sex toys. Both ends are a fixed shaft, the inner joint providing the twisting motion. Strength and flexibility. *wink*
Price
The Monarch is surprisingly reasonable price wise, coming with a solid $150 price tag. Similar toys with both clit suction and g-spot vibrating ends clock in on a wide spectrum, from $60 to $300. The Monarch is certainly worth its price, regardless. Did I mention the flicking tongue action? Or the pouch it comes with? This baby is worth your buck and it comes with all the bang.
Performance
This toy is surprisingly quiet, especially when pressed against or inside you. It certainly passes the thin wall test! It takes about an hour and a half to charge. In the name of science, purely for you (okay, maybe one hundred percent for me), I tried all three functions at once, on the highest settings, to find it took almost an hour for the battery to die. And that’s after I’d experimented with it already. It’s softest vibrational strength really is soft and the patterns are fun to switch through on all three functions. And the highest, hardest vibration strength? I like it. And I’m the kind of gal who likes heavy duty, plug me into the wall outlet, body massagers.
Packaging
This toy comes in a gorgeous box, with a magnetic side closure and exquisite care for detail, even including a message on the inside flap. The care and instruction manual is in color and printed on cardstock, folds open, and even has a large labeled picture of how to use the buttons. Everything is packaged safe and securely and the box is one I’ll definitely be keeping for storage. Seriously, it’s beautiful! It even comes with a soft and satiny storage pouch!
Materials and care
Made of body-safe silicone, you can enjoy this Monarch any which way you’d like, knowing you’re safe. While you can enjoy this toy for however long you’d like underwater when using the vibration and flicking tongue settings, it cannot be used too long underwater with the suction function. It is easy to clean with your favorite sex toy cleaner, as it is waterproof. Simply make certain to turn the suction function on so it can flush any lube out of the air hole, so it doesn’t get clogged. Then let it air dry or pat dry and slip it inside your storage pouch. And that’s about as clean as this dirty minded toy is going to get.
Special feature
I don’t know about you, but the twistable body on this toy is pretty special. It can extend out to be used on either side or curve inward so you can use both sides at once.
