My verdict
This toy from UTIMI will give you a shockingly good orgasm. If you're looking for powerful vibrations and out-of-this-world stroking, then this is the toy for you. I'm happy with how easy this toy was to use and how simple it was. It's an electronic masturbator with a futuristic vibe to it. I have a slight gripe with the toy's vibration versaility, as it doesn't have the more gentle settings that I was looking for during my session. Still, I had an amazing time with the Shadow Glide from UTIMI, and I think you will too.

About the product
The UTIMI Shadow Glide is an electronic masturbator that features an offset sleeve. You're able to use the toy to control how intense you want the vibrations and stroking to be. You can set the stroke length and speed. There are 10 speed settings and 10 vibration modes. You go through the vibration modes with the power button.
A small screen on this toy shows you the levels of the different stroke lengths and speeds. The sleeve on this toy features multiple ridges and is see-through. It's attached to the console and can't be removed.
Design
Sleek masturbators are always a treat to have. Sometimes I get tired of the whole fake vagina thing. I can appreciate a good orifice, but I love simplicity.
This toy is sleek and simple. It looks a little futuristic, especially with the rocket on the screen.
There's a handle on the opposite end of the toy's sleeve. It makes it so much easier to hold onto the toy during your session. If it tore off, you'd probably have trouble using the toy.
Personally, I sat down while using this toy. I held the handle away from my body. I'm not sure if this is how you're meant to hold the toy, or if you're meant to have the handle on your right side.
I found that holding it away from my body was most comfortable for me. This also let the toy completely go down on my shaft.
Experience
This toy felt amazing. I had a really fun time with it. The console wasn't too heavy, the buttons were easy to press, and the sleeve felt amazing. It's a little difficult to see, but the ridges were very pronounced and they added a lot to the experience.
I preferred setting both stroke length and speed intensities toward the middle of the scale. I had fun experimenting with the different vibration modes, but I was craving something more delicate during my sessions. The vibration modes offered were quite intense. I definitely used them, and they brought me to orgasm, but I was looking for something more lowkey to build me up to it.
The sleeve is squishy and soft. The ridges brushed against my shaft with every stroke. I adored this feeling and I couldn't get enough of it.
If you're looking for a toy that has powerful vibrations and toe-curling stroking, then get this toy right now.
Quality
The product was really high-quailty! The handle was comfortable and sturdy. Like I said before, if the handle falls off, then you'd be kinda screwed.
My toy was shaking and jumping around during my session because of how intense I had it set at, but the handle stayed strong and stable.
Price
This product is definitely worth the price. It's at around $88 on UTIMI's official site right now. It's around the average ballpark for electronic masturbators of this type.
Personally, I would pay up to about $120 for this toy. It's extremely high-quality and I see it lasting for a while.
Performance
This toy definitely performs well. It was able to quickly and seamlessly go through the different stroke lengths and speeds. The vibration didn't seem to cause any problems with the toy's performance. This surprises me, as I would think that a mini earthquake inside of a console with delicate wiring would impact the device's ability to perform. Happy to say that this isn't the case with the Shadow Glide!
I adored the screen on this toy. Most manufacturers wouldn't put something like this on a toy if it meant that they could cut costs. The little rocket is so cool! The scale on the left shows the stroke length level and the one on the right shows the stroke speed level. It was fun to see just how far I could go without having an orgasm!
And just for fun, they put a timer on the bottom. If you want to time your self-pleasure sessions, then know that you'll have an accurate timer built into your toy.
Packaging
The packaging was great! Like always, UTIMI provided some lube to get you started. I always appreciate when brands put a little something extra for their customers.
Materials and care
This product was pretty easy to clean, but you really do have to be careful. You can see how the sleeve is attached to the console here. It's seemingly bound by glue. If you yank at the sleeve too much, then it'd probably be torn off from the console.
Because you can't really remove the sleeve from the console, you have to take your cleaning materials and clean the sleeve with the console attached.
I used a towel and rolled it up to help me reach the end of this sleeve. It seemed to have done the trick, but I wish there was a more elegant cleaning solution. Air-drying seems to be pretty effective, which is always a plus!
