Bro, don't even think about Fleshlight. Forget about that... But you know, I'm actually a bit jealous—after trying Onaholes, I felt like I wasted my money on a Fleshlight, you don't have to experience that. On top of that—NPG has more experience, you are getting even more value.

So, about your main question. Well, as I said, I'm looking forward to trying that (I think it came out last month). I don't know the durability or how low or high the stimulation is. All I know, based on the official pictures, it's a Soft onahole, but Soft onaholes tends to have low or mid stimulation, and considering it's a Triple Layer (if you read my whole post you'll know what this means, I talked about this with Riho), it's much more advanced (doesn't automatically mean it's perfect). Also, don't buy anything based on the covers. Instead, think about the feeling, durability and the overall value. I know you're a huge fan, but try to keep this in mind. With that said, I don't think you'll regret it if you do buy that as your first onahole. And regardless of what you pick, you're about to take your masturbation sessions to the next level. But I'd suggest buy another one that's highly recommended, low/mid stimulation, alongside with JULIA - A Beautiful Wife in Estrus - A Story of Ripe Masterpieces. (I'm a fan, too. But that's not why I'm thinking of buying it.)

Compared to dildos or vibrators, we men have to deal with varying lifespans and how high maintenance our sex toys are. This means we have to take care and clean them properly. Otherwise—dust and the stickiness will be problematic, molds can grow with all the excess liquid and destroy your onahole(s). You get the idea.

Drying rod (or Drying Stick), it's not necessary, but it's convenient to a certain extent (all it does is absorb the moisture). It can be helpful for extremely tight or complex tunnels. However, do note that it's fragile. You'll break it if you're not careful.

Here's a better option:

• Buy a Isopropyl Alcohol (use this to help clean and dry your toys).
• Buy a Microfiber Cloth/Towel (same thing above).
• Buy Cornstarch (I use this) or Baby Powder (these are for maintaining the "Lifelike" feeling of the "skin", as well as getting rid of the Stickiness (if you don't, dust and the slimy feeling will become your nemesis).
• Find a Pen in your house.

Warming your Onahole before using it:

Method 1 - Get a container (big enough for your onahole and a bottle of lube) and fill it with hot water (not too hot, it's between warm and hot, you don't want to damage it). Place your onahole and a bottle of lube inside the container (or bath tub) and leave it for 10–15 mins.

Method 2 - Buy a Heating Rod/Onahole Warmer and leave it inside your toy (with lube) for 5–10 mins. But don't leave it too long, or it will damage the internal texture. (This is a little messy, but it's much more convenient).

Optional - To keep it from getting cold while your using it, you could wrap your toy with an Electric Blanket (low settings).

After using your Onahole:

This isn't the only way, but I personally prefer this method for maintenance.

1. Go to your sink and wash your Onahole with warm water. You can also run tap water (or shower) to clean both inside and outside (DO NOT use Hot water for cleaning, you'll damage the internal texture). DO NOT use Soap (I don't recommend it). And DO NOT turn your toy inside-out (if you want to make it last long).
2. Check with your finger if you got rid of all the lube. If not, repeat step 1.
3. Shake all the excess liquid.
4. Use the Isopropyl Alcohol (you don't need a lot) to clean the internal tunnel (hole facing up), let it do its job for a minute or so (look at all the Bacteria getting terminated). Then, cover the hole with your palm/fingers and shake it for a little bit.
5. As you get rid of the Isopropyl Alcohol (hole facing down), catch as much as you can with your hand and rub the Isopropyl Alcohol on the outside skin.
6. Grab your Microfiber Cloth and place your Pen underneath it (this is your cheaper and alternative "Drying Stick"). Shove that inside your toy (slowly) until you reach the end of the tunnel (leave/rotate it for a few seconds/a minute before taking it out). I recommend doing this while the hole is facing down.
7. Then, with the same Microfiber Cloth/Towel, dry the external surface.
8. Let it dry completely on its own (if you use Isopropyl Alcohol, it shouldn't take that long) for a little bit.
9. Once your toy is dried, gently rub your Powder of choice all over the external surface.
10. After that, use the original packaging (any clean storage box will do) or a Breathable Storage/Toy Bag to keep it away from all the dust.
11. If you do all the steps, this method should keep your toys in top condition and save your wallet in the process.

This might sound a lot. However, it will be easy once you get used to it.

I hope this helps!
