The ToiBocks Blog

Archive for November, 2009

Two of my favorite “industry” people have reviewed the ToiBocks and gave it a big thumbs up!

Who are Freddy and Eddy? They’re a couple who are deeply committed to each other and to helping other couples find a new level of intimacy through reviews, advice and just simply sharing their experiences with others.

Here’s part of their About Us

We are a married couple – together since 1989 – who don’t ever want to lose the wonderful intimacy and sexual attraction in our relationship. We believe sex and intimacy are integral to the happiness and longevity of all relationships and that these components should be BETTER the longer we’re together. In other words, we wish to defy the stereotype that marriage shouldn’t be the sexiest and most fun time of our lives. Freddy – Ian – is the husband, Eddy – Alicia – is the wife (we’re now comfortable using our real names, incidentally). For the record, at one time we would’ve scoffed at visiting an adult store or cruising the web looking for sex toys. This site was created to address issues we OURSELVES had (and continue to encounter as we navigate the wonderful waters of marriage). We realize sex is a beautiful and natural occurrence, vital to fulfilling our roles as husband and wife. We need not be ashamed of our sexuality in any way, shape, or form and neither should you. Finally, we live in a house with a white picket fence and love to take our 10 year old son to the beach every chance we get. Probably just like most of you.

Here is their review of ToiBocks:

This box ROCKS. Plenty of space and gorgeous design set it apart from all others.
Synopsis: A line of stylish storage cases for all manner of sex (or otherwise) products.

Our Review: One of the most underserved categories in our industry is sex toy storage. Specifically, options that cater to the odd shapes and sizes of pleasure devices, while combining style and beauty at the same time. For Your Nymphomation and Devine Toys are both great options (FYN having the more diverse selection of the two), but neither approaches the traditional jewelry box in terms of being bedside table appropriate.

Then along came ToiBocks. Made of wood and velvet lined, this lovely container looks at home in almost any room, has plenty of space for even larger items, and locks securely to keep out unwanted snoopers (like kids). With two levels, one could conceivably keep rings and necklaces in the top compartment, while holding a couple favorite vibes or dildos underneath (with room to spare for lube, wipes, etc.). In ours, we keep our most necessary orgasm producers (Fun Factory Layaspot, Tantus Curve, Emotional Bliss Femblossom, and Sliquid Silk) in the spacious lower section, while keeping a few of our cock rings in the top. The ToiBocks even has a divider inside to further organize your fun.

Warning – spoiler alert!

However, as nice as the ToiBocks is, it has one more innovation we haven’t seen anywhere. That is, when you look at it from any angle, you can’t locate a locking mechanism. No key, no lock. Nothing. So how does it lock? Glad we asked. The designer managed to come up with an ingenious magnetic “key” in the form of a metal logo, that locks and unlocks the box. If you didn’t know about this feature prior to approaching the ToiBocks, you’d be hard-pressed to figure out exactly how to access the contents inside. In fact, we spent more than a few minutes in front of a grinning Dawn Tulman – the inventor of the ToiBocks – trying to unlock the mystery before finally giving up at a trade show in 2008. Kudos, Dawn, you stumped Freddy and Eddy, bigtime!

In conclusion, this is one of those “must-have” accessories for anyone looking to store their private fun within arm’s length. Not only is the ToiBocks a lovely little piece of decor, but it also keeps the dust away while protecting toys from possible light degradation. It’s sturdy construction means years (if not a lifetime) of use and we’ve installed ours right next to our bed where it serves up frisky contents night after night. Oh, and did we mention it is a gorgeous piece of functional furniture, regardless? For all of these reasons, we give the ToiBocks our highest recommendation and rating.

Recipe for a sexy holiday: Set up the ToiBocks with the key in place and hide the directions. Get your sweetie a risque item and lock it in the bottom. Watch their delight when they open their beautiful jewelry box valet and then tell them there’s something special hidden inside. Enjoy them trying to figure out how to get into the ToiBocks and watch the look of amazement on their face when they find their risque item and know that they have somewhere safe to keep it!

For a fun variation put something in the bottom that they can use on you once they get it out!

Suggestions: OhMiBod’s new Freestyle, you no longer need an I-Pod to enjoy this fabulous product (www.ohmibod.com)! A sensuous massage candle – they make candles now that not only fill up the room with amazing scents but also can be poured directly onto your lover’s skin for a sensuous massage! Fuzzy handcuffs and a blind fold are fun items to play with.

Best thing is that now they have a safe place to keep those things that might embarrass them if they were discovered.

Feel free to post your own suggestions on what would be great to hide inside the ToiBocks this holiday!

Happy Holidays!
