So, as you may know, the Njoy Pure Wand is a thing of legend. I had read about it, talked about it and gazed upon it longingly but had never used one myself. So, obviously, when I faced with the opportunity to try one out, I kind of jumped at the chance.
Now, I’m not going to lie to you, I was a bit apprehensive about the Pure Wand. My g-spot (I’ve come to prefer the term Mass of Goodness for all of the parts that make folks with bodies similar to mine orgasm, but that’s another post) and I are not thoroughly bonded and with all the hype behind the toy itself (so much talk of squirting) I was afraid of being tremendously let down.
I was clearly being silly.
So, what’s the deal with this toy?
It’s pretty straight-forward. It’s a medical-grade stainless steel dildo. I had the pleasure of meeting Greg, the founder of Njoy at CatalystCon and what struck me was his commitment to quality. He got extra fired-up talking about making sure the toys meet his stringent criteria for smoothness and perfection.
How does it work?
It’s a dildo. No moving parts, no motors, no buttons. It’s got bulbs at each end, one is an inch in diameter, the other is 1.5 inches and it’s about 8.5 insertable inches.
How does it feel?
It’s steel: cold, hard, badass. I seized the opportunity to use a silicone lube (I hesitate with most toys) and that felt amazing. The Pure Wand holds temperature remarkably well which is a lot of fun. Going on a tip from a reader I filled a bowl with warm water and a bowl with cold water and alternated the sensations- awesome.
No, seriously, how does it feel?
Okay, I was a little nervous. I frequently struggle with even feeling g-spot stimulation. I’ve made significant headway with the Ella and the Stronic toys but still… So, the first time I used the Pure Wand alone I heeded Epiphora’s warning and put down some towels just in case (When Piph says to do something, do it), spent some time with my beloved Hitachi (Yeah, try to make me stop calling it that!) and then proceeded with the small end of the Pure Wand. Almost immediately I said “oh!” Yeah, the hunting-around-until-I-feel-something that usually accompanies g-spot play for me was conspicuously absent. We got right to the point and it was awesome. I decided to try the bigger end and, although I would have doubted that it was possible, that felt even better. Even the smallest movements felt incredible. Thrusting, rocking, moving it like a butter churn- it all worked. Finally, for fun, I added a clitoral vibe and that resulted in an orgasm that I can only describe as more dimensional than any I’ve had before. I felt that thing in my hair. Now, I didn’t squirt (honestly, I tend to get a little scared or something and back off when I feel that coming… don’t know why) but I can see that the Pure Wand is a likely candidate for bringing that about.
Full disclosure- I also used the Pure Wand with a partner and had less exciting results but I think that was the result of where it landed in that evening’s slate of activities as I have used it, quite enjoyably, since.
UPDATE 10/2/13: At CatalystCon I mentioned that I “have a Pure Wand and a g-spot and am not convinced I’m using them together as well as I can” and a fellow sex geek volunteered to help me out with that (sex geeks are good that way). By the time I left LA on Monday, the Pure Wand was officially the toy that made me squirt. Yup, that happened.
UPDATE 6/30/14: This has become my go-to g-spotting toy. I now travel with it (it may be in a bag by the door right now because I’m traveling this week) and introduce partners I really like to it. (My version of meeting the family). I’m still not squirting all over the place all the time (Epiphora says I give up too early… dude, stuff feels really intense!!!) but I am leaving some messes behind, as it were. Also, amazing orgasms, so, whatever.
It’s funny that when I first wrote this I didn’t love using the the Pure Wand with a partner and now I do that quite often. It’s a testament to not dismissing stuff after one try. I love this thing.
Things I’m down with:
- Um, orgasms.
- Terrific for temperature play. Can be warmed or cooled.
- Orgasms
- With Njoy you know you’re getting a high-quality product.
- Orgasms.
- I love medical-grade stainless steel! It’s sexy, it feels good and it’s easy to clean- it’s, perhaps obviously, non-porous (woo!) and can be cleaned with soap and water or boiling water.
- Orgasms
- It can also be used as ad hoc home security as I did my first few nights in my new apartment. It’s the only toy that gets me off AND makes me feel safe.
Things that make me go grr
- Umm…. It’s a little heavy? Oh, who am I kidding? There’s nothing about this toy that displeases me.
Specifications
- 1″ and 1.5″ bulbs
- Approx 8″ end to end and 10″ along the curve
- 8.5″ Insertable Length

This product was provided to me free of change in exchange for my honest review. My review policy is simple: I will never lie about liking a product if I don’t (in fact I probably won’t even write about it) but when I do like something it’s hard to get me to shut up about it.
