My Verdict
The Handy is a super pleasing toy! It looks modern and stylish, it's easy to use, and it has great results. The sleeve provided has nice textures and feels great on your cock, but if you have another TPE sleeve you prefer then you can just switch it out, secure it to The Handy, and get going! Does it have any drawbacks? Yes of course, the buttons - while intuitive - might still prove a little tricky for some, with one of the stroke length buttons located right next to the power button. Also, it's quite bulky and not the quietest toy in the world, so if you're looking for quieter this might not be the way to go. However, for what it is we'd say it's a really awesome toy. It's pleasing, it's adaptable, it's customizable, and it's generally a good time! But don't take our word for it - try it out for yourselves!

My Experience With the The Handy
How did I test The Handy out? Good question! I started off by getting plenty of photos of it, making sure I really showed off some of the key features. It’s a good-looking masturbator and the camera loves it! Next up I put it through its paces, testing it on things such as its texture, its materials, its effectiveness etc. Once I’d checked over everything (thoroughly and repeatedly), I was able to collate my ideas in my head, form an opinion and write this review. Hopefully it touches on everything, but if you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me and ask!
The The Handy’s design
The Handy is an awesome automatic fleshlight with a great design! Simply attach the TPE sleeve to the outside of The Handy, choose a setting that suits you, and let it do its thing! The bank of buttons along the side of the toy controls the length and speed of the stroke. As it is compatible with Bluetooth you can also link it up to VR porn for an immersive experience.
Is the The Handy easy to use?
The Handy is pretty simple and easy to use! Once erect all you need to do is lube yourself up and slide the TPE sleeve that comes with the toy. It's soft and stretchy so ill be able to accommodate your cock. Next up you need to grab the actual Handy masturbator and use the Velcro loop to secure the TPE sleeve into place. Once your cock is in there and the TPE sleeve is secured, all you need to do is select the speed and stroke length settings, and you're away. It might be a little fiddly the first time you do it, but after a few tries, it'll become second nature! The controls are fairly easy to master and easy to use if you want to alter the experience mid-session!
Rating the The Handy’s quality
The Handy is made of only the highest quality materials. They are all body-safe and designed for repeated and extended use. The TPE sleeve feels incredible; it's soft enough to feel life-like yet firm enough to make your cock feel held tight. The hard plastic of The Handy itself is strong and designed to be held onto nice and tight as it is being used, so it can take even the tightest of grips with no problems at all!
Is the price worth it?
Okay, maybe The Handy isn't the cheapest masturbator in the world, but you really do get a premium toy. It does all the hard work for you, all you have to do is just enjoy the experience! It is durable and built to last, so it's not like you're going to be dropping money on these kinds of sex toys regularly. And when you take into consideration things such as the quality, the adaptability, and the guaranteed results, that price tag doesn't seem so bad after all.
How I think the The Handy performed
Asking if The Handy works is like asking if bears sh*t in the woods. Yes - very obviously! Because of the flesh-like TPE sleeve and the unending, unyielding, and unforgiving vigor of The Handy itself, you are basically guaranteed a good time from the moment you decide to use it! Also, as it has simple and intuitive controls where you can vary the experience, you really can customize the stroke and speed until you're locked into something that's just right for you.
Unboxing the The Handy: First Impressions
The Handy comes nicely packaged up in a box that ensures it reaches you in amazing quality. After all, if you're paying so much for a toy you're going to want it to turn up in perfect working order! The packaging is sleek and simple, only showing the product on the side of the slip-on box sleeve. Remove the box from the sleeve and open it up to find everything in its own special place, held firm with cardboard inserts and cutouts. They are to make sure The Handy maintains in the position that it was packed in. The packaging is sleek, it's stylish, it's firm, and it gets the job done in a cool and memorable way!
How to care for the materials of the The Handy
As the materials used in The Handy are of such great quality, you're really going to want to look after them. So when you're finished make sure you remove the TPE sleeve from the Velcro strap attached to the handy and wash it in warm water. You should also use some kind of sex toy cleaner, if you have any available to you. Failing that a mild soap works just as well. Allow the sleeve to dry before adding a little renewer powder to keep things fresh, and storing it away. Should The Handy itself get dirty then DO NOT submerge it in water as it is electric and will become damaged. Instead, wipe it down with a damp cloth and allow it to thoroughly dry before storage.
