Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-OnStrap-on kits are incredibly versatile sex toys to keep around but they can be disappointing if you don’t buy the right brand. For one, if the harness isn’t very customizable, it may be too big for some wearers, making them loose and hard to aim, or too small, rendering it completely unusable. The best ones use body-safe materials for the dildo and washable fabrics for the harness. I recently got the Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-On and was curious if it met my expectations. Find out in my extensive review!

Key Takeaways
4.5 out of 5 stars

After testing the Advanced Strap-On for several weeks, I think it’s perfect for seasoned peggers on a budget. I especially loved that I could adjust the size of the thighs and waist to get a tight, custom fit, minimizing the times the dildo comes out. It’s also easy to use, considering it will take a little getting used to, especially if this is your first pegging session.

Who Should Try It? Anyone who wants to penetrate their partner and doesn’t have a penis (or can’t use their penis) will find this a budget-friendly, quality strap-on with plenty to love. And if you have erectile unpredictability or ED, this is a great way to include penetration in your life again.

Who Can Skip It? The dildo size is not beginner-friendly, so those new to pegging may want to start with the Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On until they are ready for the size increase. And if you have a large penis, you might be more comfortable in a strap-on with a penis pouch, where your penis has a place to be, even if you have an erection. Finally, folks with a wider waistline than 60” will want to find a larger harness or even a strapless option, like Desire Luxury.

What Is Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-On?

The Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-On harness kit is an almost endlessly versatile strap-on and harness kit. A strap-on is made up of two things: a harness and a dildo. The O-ring that holds everything in place is usually a part of the harness. You wear the harness around your waist and connect the dildo to it before penetrating your partner.

The Lovehoney Advanced version comes with a machine washable harness, three O-rings for different sizes of dildos, and a 7” silicone dildo curved to pleasure prostates and G spot alike. It’s excellent for anyone who wants to penetrate their partner, regardless of their body and gender.

First Impressions and Features

Unboxing

The Lovehoney packaging isn’t luxurious but it is more than adequate. It comes in a cardboard box—not the sturdiest kind, but it does the job. Once I opened the box, I found the harness and a dildo, along with two additional O-rings (image below). Nothing else was provided, but that kept the price affordable. The package is sufficient but not overly giftable.

The Lovehoney Strap-On has handy features, including:

  • Straps that adjust between 28-65”
  • Curved dildo targets G spots and P spots
  • Three interchangeable O-rings, so you can use the harness with your favorite dildos
  • The harness has a pocket for a bullet vibrator (but the kit does not provide the bullet vibe)

How To Use Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-On?

Using the Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-On is easy, but pegging is a little bit difficult until you get a feel for it, especially if you’re someone with a vulva.

  1. To begin, step into the harness, and tighten the straps until they fit snugly yet comfortably.
  2. Once your partner is ready for penetration, use your hand to guide the dildo the first time.
  3. Then, try different thrusting rhythms and depths and ask your partner what they like.

My Personal Experience

There’s almost nothing I love more than a sex toy that works for every body, and the Lovehoney Strap-On is precisely that. Everyone has an anus; just about anyone could wear this kit for fun. It’s perfect for lesbians, trans, or nonbinary people who want to incorporate penetration, gay couples who want to try pegging, or anyone with erectile unpredictability or ED. It’s a versatile and inclusive toy, my favorite kind of sex aid. I was excited to try this version and see what I thought.

I’ve been using strap-on kits for years, since well before I became a sex toy tester. Pegging is fun! It’s a unique activity that helps turn the tables on routine penetration in a straight relationship and gives both parties a better feel for what the other person feels during sex. But it’s essential to be able to laugh at yourselves during sex. There are ample opportunities for things to go “wrong,” so it’s best when you’re with someone who doesn’t take sex too seriously. It’s also a good idea to adjust the straps before you begin so you don’t have to spend several minutes getting everything fine-tuned.

The biggest pitfall, for me, has been getting the right angle and rhythm so that the dildo stays in. Since I don’t have any sensation in the dildo, it can be hard to tell when something gets into a weird position or slips out of place.

One of the things I love about this strap-on is that you can adjust the size of the thighs and waist to get a tight, custom fit, minimizing the times the dildo comes out.

Pro Tip: you have to find the sweet spot between precision and comfort. The tighter the strap-on fits, the quicker it will chafe. But the looser it is, the less accuracy you have and the more it will fall out. In the image below, I demonstrate how easily you can adjust the straps.

Closeup of the pegging harness

If the straps are too long and the dangling bothers you, feel free to cut them to fit for a more tailored look and feel. If you need a looser fit, be prepared to guide the dildo with your hands most of the time. Or, hear me out, you could also wear pants. It’s comfortable, and you can go for hours without chafing with total accuracy. With a few tweaks, these straps are shockingly comfortable!

My last tip is that if the pocket deadens the feeling of the vibration too much for the harness-wearer, try a panty vibe (while wearing underwear) instead. The buffer will be thinner, so you’ll feel the sensations more clearly.

Packaging

The packaging is minimal (image below), but that’s what you want with a toy like this—that’s how it stays in the budget category. Inside the cardboard box are the harness, the dildo, and two differently sized O-rings. That’s it! But that’s all you need, aside from some water-based lube.

The packaging

Design

The design of this harness kit is excellent. It looks sturdy and well-made and feels natural once fitted correctly. There are plenty of harnesses for larger people, and smaller people could trim the straps to remove the extra length if desired. The ability to resize it makes this more inclusive, so I’m a fan of it.

Material

The material quality is excellent. My only qualm is that it could be softer, which might help prevent chafing.

Dimensions

The length of the harness straps is big enough to easily fit plus-size people, something that most strap-ons can’t say. Love that!

Ease Of Use

Strap-on sex isn’t necessarily the most straightforward activity, but this product makes it a lot simpler. It’s easy to use, considering it will take a little getting used to, especially if this is your first time. Since this kit doesn’t have a vibrator, there are no buttons or remotes to learn. Wearing the strap-on is intuitive.

Versatility

Well-made strap-on harness kits are perfect for nearly anyone, and this one is well-made. The non-phallic dildo will appeal to people of all different types of sexualities.

This harness kit is perfect for nearly anyone except those with reduced pelvic mobility. If you have reduced pelvic mobility, you’ll have more fun with a thigh strap-on. Also, if you need a lot of vibration to get off, you might find the sensation of a bullet vibrator muted by the harness, so you may not get to have simultaneous orgasms with your partner.

The three O-rings

Because of the three O-rings (circled in the image above), you can use a lot of different-sized dildos with this pegging harness. Remember that any dildo you use must have a flared base, or it won’t stay put.

Warranty and Support

You can return an item within 60 days of purchase to Lovehoney, and you don’t even have to pay shipping! If you’ve tried the toy and decided you don’t like it, they will give you a refund up to 100 days post-purchase. This warranty isn’t the best out there, but it’s still a decent option if you’re worried this isn’t the correct strap-on for you.

Minor Issues I Found During Testing

The straps are good quality and should last a long time, but they aren’t the most comfortable to wear, especially if you’re engaging in extended pegging. They can start to rub a little bit. Further, after a lot of motion, it can come a little bit loose, and you’ll have to readjust the straps to get a tighter fit.

Review Summary

After testing the Lovehoney strapon, I think it’s perfect for seasoned peggers on a budget. I loved the wider waist length, which should fit people of many different body sizes. Though the straps can rub on your skin after a while, this can be mitigated by loosening them or wearing something underneath it. Anyone with sensitive skin may want to get a boxer-style harness instead.

Pros

  • Waterproof, washable, body-safe materials
  • Great price: $44.99
  • Harness length will fit larger bodies
  • Pocket for vibrator
  • Three different sizes of O-rings will be compatible with other dildos
  • Smooth dildo, long enough for advanced prostate enthusiasts
  • Sturdy straps made to last

Cons

  • The straps can rub if you wear it for a long time
  • The dildo begins to come loose after a while

Who Should Try It

If you have erectile unpredictability or ED, this is a great way to include penetration in your life again. Strap-ons are the perfect gender-affirming toy for trans-masc folks, too. Anyone who wants to penetrate their partner and doesn’t have a penis (or can’t use their penis) will find this a budget-friendly, quality strap-on with plenty to love.

Who Can Skip It

If you have a large penis, you might be more comfortable in a strap-on with a penis pouch, where your penis has a place to be, even if you have an erection. Folks with a wider waistline than 60” will want to find a larger harness and may be better served by the Lovehoney Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On Harness Kit.

Alternatives to the Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-On

Lovehoney Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On Harness Kit

The most significant difference between these two kits is the size of the dildo: the Advanced has a 7” dildo, and the Beginner’s has a 5” dildo. The larger dildo is purple, while the smaller one is black. Further, the Beginner’s has a more extensive range for harness size, ranging from 18”-68”.

Lovehoney Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On

They both have a pocket for placing a vibrator inside and three different-sized O-rings so you can switch up the dildos. The price is the same, so it will come down to which size you are more comfortable with. If you’ve never pegged your partner before (and they haven’t been pegged before), this is unquestionably a more manageable size to begin with. You can read our Lovehoney Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On review here.

Doc Johnson 9” Remote Control Strap-On

A 9” dildo isn’t for the faint of heart, but this strap-on kit gets extra points for being hollow so that the wearer can insert their penis if they have one. The harness vibrates and is operated by a remote control, adding extra pleasure and ease of use for the wearer. However, the waistband only expands to 48”, making this a poor choice for people with larger waists. You can grab yours for $149.99.

You can find more options in our main strap-on review guide. We also have an article specifically for lesbian strap-ons.

I am Sold! Where Can I Buy It?
