 Rating:  - Not a 3-pack, not exactly a 1-packSome merchants may describe this product as a 3-pack, but it's not. Then again, it's not really a 1-pack either. The package states, "Contains 3 disposable lube shooters", but in my opinion, that's not the case. My package contained a blister pack with one complete device (plunger and tube), plus two spare container tubes. The explicitly-stated concept is that the device is supposed to be disposable, but without stating it, that only apparently goes for the outside tubes. The actual plunger I guess never gets 'dirty' (depends how you'd define it, I guess), leading to the rationalization that only one plunger is necessary.... A few small problems here. First, I find throwing away things like that a waste. If I can wash a butt plug, I can definitely wash this. They don't make disposable butt plugs now, do they? If you dispose of one of these every time you have sex, for the price they sell these, that could really add up! Plus, that wouldn't be very 'green', now, would it? Second, if someone is so cleanliness- and hygeine-obsessed as to throw out the cylinder each time, aren't they NOT going to want to schlep around a sticky, gloppy, lubey plunger which they are saving because it's still 'clean'? My guess is the maker decided it was cheap enough to include 3 tubes, but too expensive to include 3 plungers since the plunger has a rubber piece, therefore requiring some assembly and greater manufacturing cost. The package also includes one little rubber 'cap' for the tip of (just one of) the tubes. I guess that's to prevent more liquidy lube spilling or drying out? I think the idea here is to keep one of these filled and 'at the ready', but that little cap is not big enough to keep the whole tip clean... so.... you'd still probably want to wash it before insertion if you're carrying it around loose, or just keep it in a little half-sized zippered baggie, esp since I'd bet that plunger could get easily depressed accidentally, and I don't think that cap would prevent it. ***My package did NOT come with a little fabric baggie. The blister packaging did not appear to be designed to include one, either, and there is no mention of it on the insert's copy, so assume that they've made a change for cost-savings purposes. I don't miss it. Again, a zippered baggie is probably a better (read: watertight) solution anyway. The plastic is also far more transparent than the photo makes it look, which is a good thing because you can see air bubbles, lube level, and plunger position. The device was longer than I thought it'd be. Overall length is 5.5 inches, insertable length is 3.5 inches. I don't know why everything sex-toy related ends up being so much bigger than you'd expect it when it arrives (except for masturbation sleeves, of course!). Packaging commands you not to insert it beyond an inch, so unless it's a CYA-type wink and a nod (like don't insert cotton swabs in your ears), the device is unnecessarily long and can hold more lube than necessary (7/16 inch outer diameter, 5/16 inch inner diameter). Its capacity is 4cc, which is a lot when we're talking about lube. The big red finger braces are also big enough for Bigfoot's whole family to use. Prior to this, I used a dispenser which was smaller in every way, had a flat tip (so narrow it didn't really cause pain, though) and was less fancy (much smaller fingerhold braces), but bore a good resemblance to this device. It was a topical dispenser sold with and used for a brand name of a prescription skin solution sold in Europe. Despite being plastic only with no rubber parts, and not designed for the purposed I used it, it actually has a more positive seal than the Lube Shooter--basically no air, and much smaller. When I try to suck up really thick anal lube like California Exotic's Anal Lube, there is an air bubble at the tip of the Lube Shooter plunger. And the stuff is so thick that trying to get that air bubble to get to the tip to be squeeze out is an exercise in frustration; the answer is just to 'shoot' until you get to the air bubble, and try to not inject the air bubble. I haven't tried it with thinner lube, because... uh, this is obviously mainly for anal sex, right? So... I would only use thick lubes with it. I learned the hard way as a beginner that you don't want to give your anal sex recipient an enema of liquid lubricant. My recommended [anal] lubricant: Cal Exotics Anal Lube, Original Formula, 6-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2) My recommended vaginal lubricant: I.D. Glide (but you don't need this thing for that; just drizzle it on your nizzle, fer shizzle). Despite encouraging you to discard the outer tubes, the packaging also states they can be washed and re-used. There's some more CYA copy in small print, like how you should 'never' insert the tip into a bottle of lube and suck it out that way. Huh? If it's clean, who cares? AND if you're using real anal lube (thick stuff), you'll never be able to 'pour' it into the little 5/16th opening; I'm sure the manufacturers know this. Another weird thing is it insists that pregnant women not use it--like at all, under any circumstance (?). There is no mention of country of manufacture, and it also says 'patent pending'. I hope they don't get a patent for this. It's just too obvious. Do a search for 'topical applicator', and mostly patent applications come up, not products [eyeroll]. But more importantly, the Lube Shooter's design could be improved by an intelligent rodent. You could make this thing half the size--in every dimension, and produce a unit with better vacuum lock which is easier and cleaner to carry around, and even more comfortable to use, for the same price or less. How about instead of a 3-and-1 combo, sell a complete 2-pack, or just a 1-pack--even cheaper. I'd go for the 2-pack, so I could have 2 kinds of lubes ready, or have one for backup :) . And while I'm quibbling, I think the red color is too attention-getting and loud, and too subconsciously reminiscent of blood, which represents injury. And injury is something you don't want to have in your subconscious when you're about to engage in anal sex! Clear or opaque white would look more medical and subtle. Maybe they'll take my advice and create the Lube Shooter II. Maybe someone else will read my advice and make their own improved version. Go ahead. I think a few million people have had this idea, and at long last, one person actually did it. The main advantage this big guy has over my little topical applicator is its curved tip, but the medical applicator is so narrow it hardly causes a problem. This thing IS better than anything else I know of that you can buy: oral syringes, irrigation syringes, whatever. So, it does the job. Get it and get whatever's better later on. Finally, this idea's time has cum! Rating:  - With this sword I shall penetrate!What a great device! Makes me wonder why I didn't think of something like this, well I did kinda. My partner and I would sometimes use a small turkey baster to deliver anal lube. I mean seriously, you can't lube a tight butthole with your fingers. What are you supposed to do after that? Wipe them on the sheets? Put a handful of greasy fingers on your partner's hips as you grab from behind? Oh no no no, never again. This device easily and gently lubricates the anal cavity for maximum pleasure and no mess. No more sticky tubes hiding in the sheets! With a convienent carry bag, this can be taken and used anywhere, the car, an airplane, or a lavatory. Highly recommended product.
