The Fantasy Fetish Sex Swing from Lovehoney (pictured left) is the pick of the bunch currently available in the UK. Retailing at £89.99 it is not the cheapest available (that honour goes to the Door Sex Swing from Bondara at £28.99) but we think this is a far superior product offering excellent value for money and is the one we've merrily bounced around on at home for the past three years ;-)
The most significant advantages of this swing are the width and strength of the metal frame and the fact that it truly is a swing where you hang sitting underneath the frame on long vertical straps. This is one of the key components to look out for in a sex swing because many of the cheaper ones (particularly the door mounted swings) are very restrictive indeed which defeats the purpose of a sex swing because they don't allow you to hang in balance when seated - take a look at the cheaper Bondara swing mentioned above to see what we mean. The lack of height in the cheaper models is also extremely restrictive for taller users and means that in many positions you have to use your arms to balance yourself because you can't sit naturally.
Apart from being very well made, the Fantasy Fetish swing offers excellent value for money because what Lovehoney don't mention on their website is that it is actually also a spinning sex swing if you want it to be. This is a feature you can pay another £20 or £30 pounds for which is an absolute rip off because all you need to make a sex swing spin is a simple metal swivel that costs £3 in any DIY shop.
With comfort in mind, the straps are wider than on many swings which helps reduce the pressure on the bottom, legs and feet and all contact points are padded with thick firm foam that offers support rather than soft foam that doesn't help spread the weight. There are five pairs of buckles that allow excellent adjustability for different positions and different sized users and the swing is suspended on a spring which helps both comfort and usability.
All in all this is an excellent product that has everything you need in a swing and offers exactly the same quality and features as models costing up to £60 more.
Pros
- A real swing that allows you to hang in balance not just a simple harness with a hook.
- Enough height and width clearance for all users.
- Extra wide straps with five pairs of buckles for excellent adjustability.
- Sprung for comfort, usability and extra fun!
Cons
- Not the cheapest on offer (but very good value given the quality).
