Grade: B-

Review Summary: With an extremely large selection of products and categories, Sex Toy Sex is sure to have everything you are looking for. The company has been in the sex toy business for almost 15 years, and based on this experience it successfully provides all the essentials for an online sex toy store. The look of the site is very clean, and well-organized, and it is generally easy to navigate. What it lacks in “personality” (no blogs, “how to” articles, newsletter, etc.), it makes up for in solid performance: a fast-loading site, privacy, customer service, a variety of payment options, and respectable shipping rates. And if it’s personality you’re looking for, you won’t be disappointed with it’s owner, Sex Toy Dave, who has made a name for himself in the Hollywood scene and most notably as a client on Bravo’s hit TV show, Millionaire Matchmaker. But with or without the owner’s celebrity status, Sex Toy Sex is a winner.

Pros: Fast loading site, “What’s New” and “Bestsellers” categories, favorites list, advanced search functions, huge quantity of products and categories, plenty of payment options including wire transfer

Cons: Only one view of product on product page, product reviews not notated on product page, no “sort by” option for search results, no sale/bargain category, search function includes DVDs in results (no way to separate)
