The Cupid 3 dildo really is an object of beauty. I am always being told off for being overly twee, and in that respect this super-cute dildo certainly reflects my personality. I love the Sh! Women's heart shaped base; this combined with the little pink, decorative, heart-shaped motif in the corner is enough to send me cooing into overload. I guess the design is actually very kitsch, for me it takes me back to my childhood and conjures up images of My Little Pony and The Carebears; a trait that you may consider incompatible with an adult product; but I personally think it's nice to have something with a cute and retro design like this for a change.
The Cupid 3 is made from a super-soft, extremely flexible glossy silicone. This makes it perfect for both anal and vaginal use, and means that you can thrust with all your might and not do any damage (well I guess it depends how much your might amounts to, but certainly not much damage!). I have used this dildo for both these purposes and found it extremely comfortable. It may be very flexible but it is still firm enough to thrust with. And of course, as it is silicone it can be sterilised by boiling for a few minutes in water, making it perfectly safe to enjoy for both uses.
The flared base is not only cute, but practical too. It makes a great handle for you to grasp onto whilst masturbating or using this on a partner, whilst also making sure it wont disappear up your rectum during anal play, and suitable for use in a harness. We have been using it with the excellent Sh! Women's Emporium Harness, the combination looks stunning together and we would thouroughly recommend purchasing both items if you want to achieve this beautiful, pure, bridal look. It would however also fit in any harness with a suitably sized o-ring (1.75" roughly).
Cupid 3 is reasonably narrow with a tapered head and a 6 inch shaft. The shaft has a slight curve to it and is composed of three subtle bumps which actually feel far less subtle when in use. By using just the first two segments vaginally, this dildo hits my g-spot and gives good stimulation, however it does lack a bit of firmness that would make it a great g-spot toy. I don't see this as a negative though, as you're never going to get a dildo that does everything. As it's not too long I'm able to take its full length both vaginally and anally, and the soft silicone means that it doesn't hurt if it prods against my cervix. The size, shape and softness of the dildo, combined with the large and slightly grippy base means that this has also become a firm favourite of ours to use for (harness-free) double penetration (using this in my ass whilst Alex is fucking me doggy-style). The base sits fairly securely against Alex's pubis, meaning that when he thrusts in and out of me so does the dildo - and let me tell you, that is a totally sensational experience!
In conclusion the Cupid 3 is an absolutely brilliant, top-quality adult product. Its well-proportioned size and unintimidating design would make it perfect as a beginner's dildo, but it also has properties that make it stand out from the crowd and worth purchasing for us sex toy junkies. This is a toy that is going to be used time and time again in our house and I can highly recommend it.

This dildo was part of a very generous wedding present from Sh!, selected specifically to go with Lucy's wedding dress. It is actually the first Sh! branded dildo we have tried, and, I can tell you, it wont be our last.
The Cupid 3 is made of 100% silicone of a particularly pleasurable variety. It is very soft, squidgy and bendy, but dense and holds its shape well. The surface is glossy and sleek, yet grippy and almost rubbery too. I can't really describe it any further, hopefully our pictures are of some use also.
One entertaining feature of this dildo is the cardioid (a.k.a. heart-shaped, I just love that word though) base. This is both distinctive and practical, providing a secure base for harness use. When in manual (literally "by hand", from the Greek manos as this post seems to have turned into a etymology lesson) use, the base makes it slightly awkward to get a good grip, but by no means impossible.
The shape and size of this dildo are well thought out. There are a couple of subtle bumps, with a slight increase in diameter from tip to base, but nothing that interferes with vigourous thrusting. There is also a pleasant upwards curve (which sags a little bit due to the softness of the silicone). The combination of the size and the softness, with the non-phallic and non-threatening design, make it in my view a perfect beginner's dildo, both for vaginal play (though maybe something firmer and more curved would be worthwhile if you want strong g-spot stimulation) and for anal play.
However, I am by no means an anal beginner: so did I find this enjoyable? The answer is a resounding yes! I find this dildo excels in a very specific fashion for me. Playing with or being pegged with a large or highly textured dildo is a wonderful but extremely intense experience, and often I don't last all that long, so it doesn't really matter if I can't take a fucking for too long. However, sometimes I am in the mood for a longer session, or just something less harsh, but I often still find that after a while I get irritation and have to stop. The softness and shape of the Cupid 3 make it incredibly comfortable, and I have enjoyed some long, romantic sessions with it.
I love this dildo. It would be a brilliant, though not cheap, beginner's option, especially for anal play. The design may not appeal to everyone, though a variety of colours including some lovely looking marbled options are available. I am a believer in the principle that whilst only some people can enjoy big toys, everybody can enjoy the right small toy, and I think this is a versatile, comfortable and enjoyable option for all.

F*cking wankers! Copied toy from Germany and calling it their own. That's stealing in mij book.
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteIn our view that is a serious allegation, especially against a manufacturer that we hold in high esteem and that is generally very well regarded. It doesn't help that you have posted this accusation anonymously and provided no supporting evidence, either of a similar design or of priority over the Sh! design.
We have scoured the product lists of all the German manufacturers we know of and have come up blank. If you see this and want to provide further information then please do so, either here or by email. Otherwise we will shortly be deleting this comment because as far as we are concerned at this point it is a baseless libel.
Thanks,
Alex and Lucy.
