This is the product widget for the Lelo Ella. Also featuring other various Lelo pleasure objects.(Review is below)
Use
The Lelo Ella is a silicone, non-vibrating, double-ended dildo that is very smooth to the touch. She has some drag against skin so she won't easily slip away while lubricated. A very streamlined beautiful toy--very pleasing to the eye as well as more sensitive areas!
Ella is great to use with a partner or by yourself. She's very durable and easy to grip--a toy that will last in any nympho's collection.
One end is hooked with a flat surface that is targeted for G-spot stimulation. The tapered end has a bulge in the middle designed for more traditional penetration. It's literally two toys in one.
You can use her without fear of being heard because she has no noisy vibrations. Unless you count moaning! Let's just say she made it into the top TEN dildos and dongs(On EdenFantasys) for a reason.
Material / Texture
Ella has earned a ten on material safety, made completely with velvety smooth food-grade material / Hypo-allergenic / Latex free / Non-porous / Phthalates free silicone. Very body-friendly.
A very clean toy, with no smell or taste. None of those gross fumes that stink up your room when you open the box and linger on the toy. I had a rabbit vibe that did that once, which I got from another site. It was repulsive.
Ella has a matte finish, which creates a slight drag on the skin. When used for clitoral stimulation, I find this more preferable. After applying lube you won't feel it drag on the skin, so no vaginal-pulling here. Overall, there is a very luxurious feel to the toy.
Design / Shape / Size
She is very light at only 0.3 lb, not hard to hold in use for long periods of time. She's firm to the touch--not squishy like some toys. Her hooked end can bend, but only very slightly with a lot of pressure. So she will not bend easily during rough use.
In total length she comes to 7" with an insertable length of 5". You can use either end depending what you prefer. Her hook end is designed for G-spot stimulation; the other for a more traditional penetration. Both ends fit quite comfortable for me, not too slender and not too big. Although I usually prefer my toys a bit larger than this is. The Ella would probably be uncomfortable if she was much larger because of the curved flat-topped end. So I’d say she is a well-balanced toy all in all.
There are no seams or annoyances. Very streamline. The word 'Lelo' is imprinted into the toy but is very tiny and not noticeable other than visibly.
I personally prefer her shape and design over more realistic dildos. She's more artistically appealing, and more discrete than realistic ones. I myself am an artist and am drawn to beautiful pieces of art and pleasure. How could I pass up this one?
Performance
Silicone retains heat so you can warm her up by touch or by soaking her in warm water before use if you like.
She is very easy to insert and remove comfortably once lubricated, because of her smooth silicone. The hooked end is difficult to use at first. I don't think I would recommend this to someone first starting out with toys, just because of the hooked tip. But it is amazing for targeting right in on the G-spot. And the smoother, tapered end doesn't look too pointy, but it definitely felt stabby in use and really didn't do much for me.
I would recommend something softer for beginners. Although like any tricky toy, you will get more used to the Ella over time, and be able to maneuver her better.
Care and Maintenance
Clean-up is so easy with the Ella. Just wipe her down with a disinfectant toy cleaner, or soap and water. Let dry, place her in your box, and you’re done. No wires, no batteries, no nooks and crannies to clean on her. Just smooth perfection.
Silicone is one of the easiest things to clean other than glass toys. Silicone literally repels dirt and bacteria, so get as dirty as you want with her! She didn't even pick up lint from my towel, or even tissue paper when I dried her with them. But to be on the safe side I would let her air dry or if need be pat her down with a towel (don't rub).
If you use her for anal play or have a yeast infection, or if you share her and want to make sure she is extra clean, Ella can be boiled. Three minutes is all it takes. Or you can put her through your dishwasher without soap, though I wouldn't recommend it, especially if you share a house with others! It would be a little hard to explain to them why there's a sex toy in with the dishes.
Sounds appetizing, right?
The safest lubricant to use with her would be a water-based lube. Silicone will react badly with silicone-based lubes. Treat your Ella right and only use water based lubricants!
For storage I keep her in a box with my other toys, but each toy has their own box or bag. It is best to not have your toys touch. The Lelo Ella comes in her own beautiful black container with all her papers. I would highly recommend keeping that box for her.
Packaging
You'll find your Lelo Ella inside a plain, black, sturdy cardboard box with the words 'Lelo' imprinted on the top of the box. There is a clear plastic holder over her for extra protection which comes off easily. The box she's in you will want to keep to store her in so she stays nice and clean. Plus, in the bottom of the box is your Lelo one-year warranty and a small booklet of Lelo products. This will keep it all organized for you. It's a pretty discrete box. It's smooth and flat black. It's not shiny, nothing that will leave fingerprints or catch anyone’s eye. There's also a little satiny bag in the box that you can put your Ella in. Very good for traveling! But I just put it over her in the box to keep dust away.
It's really a quality product you can tell as much just from her packaging. The Lelo line carries all quality products so you know you’re getting a toy that is not only luxurious but also designed exactly for its purpose.
You also get a free Lelo lubricant with your Lelo purchases! So if you don't already have a water based lube you won’t have to wait to use her so you can run to the store and get lube.
Personal comments
I wish it had vibrations!
But it is a lovely toy anyway, I'm glad to have her in my collection. She's quite the catch for the price.
Experience
hen I first tried using Ella, I was so focused on how to maneuver her that I totally lost arousal. My advice would be to get very comfortable and relaxed before using her if you haven't used a toy with a curve hook like hers. She was the first toy I had shaped like this.
Once she's in though, her hooked, flat-topped end (my favorite of the two) hits things perfectly. Best for rocking motions and slight thrusting, just watch out when thrusting with the hooked end! I found her very enjoyable, but not earth-shatteringly so. I did not orgasm with her unfortunately, but she was a good warm-up toy for me. I expect we will get there at some point. I will be testing her some more to see if she might have any more secrets up her sleeves!
