The Maia Piper Vibrating Self-Heating suction Silicone Vibrator is a riot. The suction and vibration create an intense sensation that is pleasurable that sort of mimics a blowjob, which is even more convincing when used with lots of lube and the heating function. The soft inner texture included in the internal canal shape really helps it generate a decent level of suction against your member- even at my average size of 4.7 inches length and above-average girth, I had some room and comfortably fit in the sleeve.
The independently controllable 15 levels of vibration X 3 Heat Levels X 5 Suction levels keep things fresh and interesting, they offer pulsating and fluctuating patterns that feel good. The independent control offers you the freedom to explore and discover what you like. With the right setting(s), you can get off easily and repeatedly.
The Maia Piper is well built, solid and not too heavy at 1.1 LBs with an ergonomic shape. It has soft silicone internals and it's waterproof/submergable, making it suitable for shower use. It is definitely a cut above other similar vibration sleeve strokers.
Maia Piper does get fairly loud when you turn on the vibration. The suction can make slurping and gurgling noises if you don't hold it close to you pelvic bone or wait long enough to generate a vacuum on your cock. Not a problem if you have the fan on, or using it in the shower or simply live alone.
Cleaning does require a little bit more attention to clean because you have to run the sleeve under a faucet with the suction activated to rinse out lube or cum from the air-recirculation holes. It takes about 1-2 minutes to ensure it's completely clean.
The toy is rather big measuring at 11.5” long, 3.2” thick x 4.5” wide, so you have to sit, stand or lie down when using it and constantly have a hand to prop it on your junk.
If you don't mind a bit of extra cleaning and a tad bit of noise, the Maia Piper offers a lot of pleasurable possibilities-go for it!

Approx. 40 mins of runtime is short for a 2 Hour Charge Time
Old school DC "PIN" charger
Packaging
Product arrived in plain, discreet packaging, no labels or descriptions on the shipping box that suggests the kind of product was in the box.
The Packaging of the Maia Piper is simple, you get a carboard box with a magnetic clasp that holds your Maia Piper, a USB charging cable, a pair of high quality printed warranty card and instructions card.
I noticed the box isn't airtight sealed with a security sticker like other toys packaging ship with but it but has some shrink wrap on the toy to let you know it's brand new, not a big deal- less waste.
Design
Nice aesthetics and ergonomics, the opening of the masturbator resembles a pair of lips-seems suitable for the suction (blowjob-like) experience it provides. The pink silicone is eye-catching and the hit of chrome on the body looks luxurious, it's pleasing to the eye.
Product is rather long at 11+ inches and not too thick at 4.5 inches wide, but it is ergonomically shaped and not too fatiguing to hold.
Quality
The Maia Piper is made of medium-high quality. The product casing is soft, smooth and spotless, the control panel buttons have a satisfying clickily and tactile feedback with just the right amount of resistance. They also have uniform lighting when activated.
The sleeve itself is made of soft silicone that forms a super smooth canal without any ridges or bumps-no burs or manufacturing defects or seams here!
Although the toy itself is large, it has an ergonomic shape which makes it easy to hold with one hand. I tested the toy in the shower multiple times to confirm that it is definitely waterproof, the water actually enhances the suction performance, it runs fine in the shower without diminished performance. The vibration motors (yes two) are fairly strong.
The only meh quality or design is that the Maia Piper uses and older DC, "PIN" type charging connector that has to be punctured in the charging port which is not a hassle but it does make you question the long-term durability of the toy- it would have been nice to see a magnetic charging port for ease of use.
Experience
Product felt really good.
==The Fit==
I am average length (4.7 inches) and above-average girth and I fit just right i.e. enough to bottom-out the sleeve if I thrust my cock against the sleeve. However just inserting it, there's a little room to spare-so if you're around this size, I think to you will feel the suction sensation really well!
The smooth, soft silicone and canal shape really make the suction and air pulses feel strong on my penis. The suction and heat when used in combination with medium-high vibration is really pleasurable and I personally cannot last very long when the vibration is cranked up, it gets me over the edge where I can cum from this thing multiple times.
The toy gets noticeably louder when the vibration is enabled-keep that in mind.
I turned on the warming feature to warm up the sleeve in advance, add my lube and went to town. The suction feature really shines if you use the Maia Piper in the shower or use lots of water-based lube where it's intensified.
==Thoughts after use==
Albeit, this is my first suction-like toy other than the Arcwave POW (which uses passive vacuum, not using battery power), the Maia Piper blows the Arcewave POW out of the water when it comes to the sensations it provides. Also, the vibrations provided are more pleasurable when compared to penis-vibrators (like the Satisfyer Men's Vibration) that advertise blowjob-like sensations. The Maia Piper is just a cut above because it vibrates the glans and the shaft, the Satisfyer focused on your glans.
This toy is a joy to use in the shower, being that it's waterproof. The suction can suck-in water and spay a gentle jet of water on your glans which is pleasant.
The suction works best when you hold the toy against your pelvic bone to create a vacuum against your penis. I really like the button placement on the toy which allows a quick changes to new suction and vibration patterns to keep things interesting.
You can try stroking with the Maia but it's breaks the vacuum, causing suction goes away and squealy air vacuum noises ensure- it's not meant for that since this is advertised as an "automatic" masturbator where you put it on and let it do all the work.
I really liked the fact that you can individually toggle and control the Suction, Heating and Vibration independently so you can play how you want- build up with heat, suction and then vibration or go nuts and have all 3 all at once-pretty neat.
Performance
Yes, it met and exceeded my expectations. I had my doubts about the build quality, not knowing about the Maia brand and also was skeptical about the potency of the suction feature being capable of doing anything noticeable and I was pleasantly surprised after my first try.
The build quality is SOLID, it's soft to touch (inside and out) and it's actually waterproof.
The product really delivers on it's promises of suction and heating and vibrating functionality that are individually configurable .
The different suction and vibration patterns do offer noticeably different experiences and that this really cool to have, I won't get bored of this toy for a long time. I was satisfied with the product and pretty impressed with the performance.
The charging is okay, 2 hours of charge time for 40 mins of play.
Price
It's on the mid-high price at approx. 99-105 USD. However it's fairly priced because I feel like you're getting a solidly build product with decent, ergonomic design with a LOT of features.
I am not aware of any other heating and suction enabled strokers offered in the sub 100 USD range-price is fair considering the build quality, customizability and performance you're getting from the Maia Piper.
Materials and care
== Cleaning==
Product requires a little bit of time an patience to clean, but it's fairly easy to clean.
When you're done with your session, rinse the toy with your mild soap or Toy Cleaner and then activate the suction feature and repeat again to ensure that the toy is thoroughly cleaned- this takes maybe 1-2 minutes.
Please note a little bit more time is needed to ensure that the toy is fully dried because some water can get trapped in the suction valves, so having the suction function run for a minute to expel any residual water is needed to keep the toy fresh and clean. It's not that inconvenient.
== Charging==
The Maia Piper uses a DC Pin type charger that is not magnetic.
It takes about 2 Hours to fully charge which give you 40 minutes of runtime, a bit short.
It is rather nice that the lights on the toy indicate when it's charged.

amazing review! i'd love to see what you think of the much pricier strokers out there. it seems like this one did the job but I'm curious if other toys can do it better
Just a guy looking for new alleyways of pleasure.
Driven by curiosity and interest of sex toys and their ability to provide new sensations, vibes and feelings.
The Fleshy Thrust Sync is a well-built toy that offers an automatic stroking feature with 8 exciting modes with varying speeds, stroke-depth in addition to 4+ vibration modes and the option to heat the sleeve. The Fleshy Thrust Sync is powerful and will get you off in no time, almost too fast if you're not careful, so use lots of lube to reduce the friction and let it glide over you.
The Fleshy Thrust Sync's standout feature is it's truly immersive, sync-to-video cutting edge AI Sync Video connectivity using the Faptap platform. Thrust Sync's ability to sync and create an immersive experience by recreating the stroke patterns is really something else- whether it's Fellatio, Intercourse or prodding is pretty impressive as the Faptap AI sync is able to faithfully reproduce the appropriate speed, stroke depth and reciprocating motion that is shown on screen. If you're looking for an automatic stroker that has the ability to sync to your favorite videos and other videos on popular adult video sites, look no further- the Fleshy Thrust Sync has you covered.
While the toy is a great experience, please note it is rather large and requires a hand to constantly keep it in place, not allowing for a "hands free" experience. The largest point of criticism for an otherwise amazing toy is that it does get fairly loud as the mechanical whirs and actuation sounds between the automatic stroking occurs- it only gets worse with speed.
I recommend the Fleshy Thrust Sync for users who want a solid Automatic Stroker who doesn't mind the noise and for users who want to watch their favorite videos and get closer to feeling the action- I can't imagine how great this toy would be with VR!
Owning the Gush for 8 months and using other Penis Vibrators and strokers, I can say that the Lovense Gush that offers a comprehensive package consisting of great build quality, ease of use, decent sensations, remote connectivity and smart in-app controls that cannot be matched by similar shaped toys. The closest competitor is the Hot Octopuss which is a MUCH more powerful toy with half the features.
You can stroke with it while cycling through the patterns or wear it on your penis to tease and eventually achieve a hands-free orgasm- It's the male equivalent of the infamous Lovense Lush "G-Spot" toy that most streamers/cammers use while chatting or doing public, voyeur like videos (You know the ones).
It is priced at a premium which is justified to me based on high build quality , user-friendly design and feature-rich apps offered by Lovense such as Remote Control, Vibemate toy and A.I video-syncing and pattern sharing.
While it is versatile, some penis owners with desensitized glans may find the vibrations are not as powerful unless it's cranked all the way up in vibration intensity, making the toy a bit loud. If intensity is your goal, look for the Hot Octopuss instead
I recommend it for beginners and veterans. It's easy to use, and unlike most strokers and penis vibrators
it doesn't require a lot of of lube. Veteran sex toy owners can find something that tickles their fancy whether it's the remote control, opportunity for hands-free orgasms or plethora of app features.
It excels for users who want a slow-burn, teasing-filled orgasm or those into into edging and longer sessions- not really for ones seeking out a quick session, unless you're willing to stroke with it.
If you can justify the price and you're a techie that likes fiddling with the app settings, vibration patterns and syncing the toy with a partner or Vibemate's AI Sync interests you- It's a fun toy! If you don't fancy smart features, you can find a similar shaped toy elsewhere.
TL/DR: The Arcwave Ghost is a low-cost Silicone Stroker that provides decent stimulation with it's two-texture reversible design. It's thoughtfully designed with it's stealthy, inconspicuous exterior, exciting reversible two pattern textures and a smart design that makes the toy super easy to use, clean and store.
However the toy itself provides moderate stimulation and can be noisy if used with a fair amount of lube. It also fits rather snug, so larger penis owners should purchase with caution.
All in all, the toy provides decent stimulation with the easy-to-use and clean design which is why I recommend it as your FIRST stroker-like toy. However if you already have a collection of strokers with intricate patterns, you might be underwhelmed.
At the price of 15 USD, it is still a good buy.
This classic toy from TENGA is an oldie but a goodie! You'll appreciate this if you're looking for something discreet, fun, and easy. The whole experience is quick and effortless. If you want a toy to start the fun immediately, then this is for you. The toy's internal texture was decent. It wasn't anything special, but that's okay in my opinion. For the price point and the amount of effort involved, I can't complain.
It's not often that a toy makes me say, "wow". I rarely find myself being TRULY impressed at a sex toy, especially when I've tried so many. Of course they feel good and they do their job, but I always know what I'm getting myself into. I have my expectations and most toys meet them. Not the dome from maude. This toy exceeded each and every expectation I had. It's a real contender for my favorite stroker. Scratch that, my favorite sex toy. The most shocking thing about this is how simple everything about it is. maude goes back to basics with this toy and truly provides something that will give mind-blowing orgasms.
I was impressed by every aspect of this toy. It's sleek, simple, insanely pleasurable, easy to use, and even easy to clean. Let's get right into it.
The Boost Blow is an oral focused experience brought to y’all by the good folks at Fleshlight. It ain’t modeled after anyone in particular, it’s just a regular pair of lips, teeth, and a tongue. But let me tell ya, the real beauty’s all on the inside…
I got a great deal of enjoyment out of the MainSqueeze Cindy Starfall toy from Doc Johnson. This manual stroker provides a superb feel and offers great stimulation to the sides of your shaft and head thanks to the molding of the inner ridges and chambers offering a tight and enjoyable session. This toy is a part of a collection offered by Doc Johnson that feature a plastic panel that allows you to exert additional pressure on the sleeve, and while in theory that sounds great I found myself hardly using it. I also found that as I used the stroker at certain angles the plastic panel would rub against the case and make noise. It’s a gimmick that I honestly could’ve cared less for and feel brings down the overall experience just a bit. Overall, It is an amazing toy that I would definitely recommend, with my only gripe being the “squeeze” feature.
The Tenga Puffy is a unique manual masturbator with a soft outer case. It is a little bit bulky for my tastes and I am still undecided on whether or not I want to keep this in my personal collection but if you don't mind the bulkiness and want a high quality product then I recommend this for you.
Adult star Sybil has joined the Doc Johnson Main Squeeze male masturbator line. And she is a beauty as much to look at…as this toy fashioned on her most private part is to hold, and fuck.
This is a hardcase stroker that the user can manipulate from a squeeze plate on the toy’s side, as much as from the airtight end cap that you can twist to control suction. Once inside Sybil’s tight and textured sleeve you surely won’t last too long co-starring with her as you play with this male masturbator any which way you like.
This is handheld, solo fun to the max, while dreaming of the porn star of your ultimate fantasy.
Handcrafted in that well-known and realistically feeling ULTRASKYN material, Sybil's Main Squeeze perfectly rendered textured opening and tunnel fits soft, tight, and warm around you when you ‘engage,' the whole toy made for ultimate control as you thrust for all you're worth.
One won't let Sybil down with this high-end jerker-offer. It's so good to see this fine lady join the D.J. team for your ultimate pleasure.
Dream big or not at all, and here you get to dream all you like...about Sybil.
The XT-18 foldable version quick shot stroker from Xspacecup is a solid toy with a unique cowgirl simulation feature, handles for easier grip, and a collapsible design. However, with only a $20 difference between it and the superior XT-5, the XT-5 is recommended for its stronger motor, more settings, and longer stroke length.
The Lulu masturbator is an amazing hands-free stroker. It gives you back your ability to move with hands-free masturbators, as most of them require you to be glued to your desk with a desk-mount. The toy's presentation is filled with luxury from beginning to end. You will absolutely appreciate every little thing that Utimi put into this product's design and packaging. If you want a truly hands-free experience, then you should definitely get this toy.
