RPP 3.0 #45: Mood Pleaser Orange (Zig Zag) (RPP #98)

Finally life is going back to normal, so I can come back to write reviews! Today's review is for another model of the Mood Pleaser line from Doc Johnson. The Mood Pleasers are a series of four sub-$20 masturbators, each with a different color and internal texture. I already reviewed the white model (Mood Pleaser Massage Beads), and today I will be reviewing the orange one - The Mood Pleaser Zig Zag. 
Without further interruptions, lets go to the review!  

General Description

The Mood Pleaser Zig-Zag (Doc Johnson)

Like the rest of the Mood Pleaser collection, the Zig Zag is a small masturbator with a very tight entrance and a modern design that does not scream "sex toy". It basically has the same external shape than the Mood Pleaser Beads, with the main difference  the color - the Zig Zag is bright orange -  and the the texture. Where the Beads had a nice regular array of massage bumps, the Zig Zag has a design of capsule shapes bumps arranged in a zig zag pattern. Like the other toys in the Mood Pleaser line, it is an open-ended toy designed to be used as a stroker.

Review

The MP Zig Zag is a simple - and effective - toy. The texture is basic, but well used, it does a good job on helping you to reach your orgasm. Forget about realism with this toy - the exterior design is completely abstract and the interior design does not even try to feel real. The job of this toy is to give something different when masturbating and, in that, it delivers.

Zig-Zag texture (Doc Johnson)

The sensations are mild at the beginning of the session, but as your penis gets used to the toy and the lube is being used, the bumps and their zig-zag design become more and more noticeable. If you like to extend your sessions, stroking slowly, the Zig Zag will become a good toy for you because the sensations are at their best when hitting those bumps at slow speed. You will feel the change in direction of the bumps and you will be surprised by your orgasm. It won't be strong in intensity, but it will be long and pleasurable. 

If you prefer to go for a quickie, the Zig Zag also delivers enough intensity to curl your toes if you use a thinner lube that allows you to feel the bumps. Using faster strokes, the texture becomes intense, and you will be cumming after a few minutes.

Using the Mood Pleasers can be tricky due to the tight entrance. Personally, I don't even bother with it - I penetrate the toy through its back orifice, which is wider and a lot easier to penetrate. You have to remember that this is a small toy, so if you have a large / thick penis the Mood Pleasers could not be right for you. Cleaning is as easy as flushing with running water and then allowing it to air dry.

Total score:  32 / 40


Verdict:
The Mood Pleaser Zig Zag is a good toy for beginners or if you want to add some variety for your foreplay. The texture takes a while to get used, but once you understand it, the Zig Zag is an entertaining toy to use. For about $15, it is a good toy to play with.

FYI:
I used the new Slick Specialist lube for my sessions with the Zig Zag. My Eri Nanjo doll assisted during the hands-free sessions.
