Who Is This Not For? If you’re looking for a minimalist-style toy or something that doesn’t have too many moving parts, ADRIAN may not be for you. Although simple to operate, it can feel a little clunky and cumbersome if all you want to do is have a sneaky wank and get on with your day.
You Can Buy It on The Honey Play Box website for $89.99.

What is the ADRIAN?
The Honey Play Box ADRIAN is marketed as a 2-in-1 male sex toy. The primary function of ADRIAN is to get you off, which it does with a water-filled rotating masturbator. As a bonus, you can disassemble it and use it as a penis exerciser to increase stamina and performance downstairs. The ADRIAN has a range of flashy features that we’ve come to expect from the Honey Play Box range, such as ambient lighting that glows through the device and a range of rotating speeds. I’ll cover all of these in detail below.

How to Use ADRIAN Masturbator?
Before you Start:
- Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to power up your ADRIAN.
- To change through the 5 rotating modes, press the power button.
- To switch between the 7 light modes, press the light button. The 8th mode is a 7-color automatic cycle. Press once more to turn off the light
- The light indicator will show 3 different settings: CHARGING – the light flashes; FULLY CHARGED – the light is on permanently; WORKING – The light is on.
To use:
- Before initial use, wash all ADRIAN’s parts in warm, soapy water.
- Remove the lid and apply lube to the silicone tunnel and your penis before use. Honey Play Box recommends not using a water-based lube as this may dissolve with the water inside.
- Add water to the center of the toy. I put enough in to cover the transparent ribbed tunnel.
- Open the small silicone plug before inserting your penis. Plug the hole while in use but remember to unplug before removing your penis, as it can cause a strong suction effect.
- Enter your penis, either semi-flaccid or hard. Begin the toy modes and enjoy the ride.
- For penis training, pull out the silicone tunnel and use it as a stroker without the main machine.
My Personal Experience
When I first saw the new ADRIAN from Honey Play Box, I was torn between intrigue and skepticism. Using water inside a masturbator was something I had never tried or thought about. Sure, I love having some kinky shower time with my regular strokers, but having my cock immersed in its very own plunge whirlpool was definitely new.
At first glance, the flashing disco lights and fancy packaging gave off quality toy vibes (I demonstrate the lights in the image above. You can also see my unboxing video for a better understanding of how they work). However, in an industry known for marketing gimmicks, I was questioning whether this was all hype and my dick would be left flaccidly drowning in a cesspool of my own doing.
With these thoughts in mind, I dived into ADRIAN head first to see how it performed.
Packaging
Honey Play Box has a standard type of packaging that they use across most products, and it works well. It won’t blow your socks off, but the quality is good, and the box feels well-crafted and luxurious. ADRIAN is packaged well enough to gift to a water-loving friend or partner.
The best surprise inside the box was a nice, deep-green storage bag (image above) perfect for tucking ADRIAN away when not in use. However, apart from the bag, the package was notably sparse on extras like lube, discount cards, or in-depth instructions.
Build Quality
The ADRIAN feels solid and well-constructed in the hand. It has a heft, which borders on being slightly too heavy for some users, especially as things get slippery in the shower with a fist full of lube. I managed to avoid dropping mine while testing, but I get the feeling it would only be a matter of time before I did, and plastic on hard tiles is never a good mix.
Design
The finish of the main case is a lovely matte surface, which looks great. My only real gripe is the charger connection, which uses a magnetic port that can quickly disconnect if bumped (image below). I’m not sure why so many sex toy companies refuse to adopt the universal and reliable USB-C connection instead.
A standout feature is the changing lights, which create a glowing effect in the water-filled canister, which operates flawlessly, adding an engaging visual element while you’re getting your rocks off. It’s like a blue light disco for your genitals.
Materials
Safety and durability are a high priority for the ADRIAN, with quality TPE and silicone being used in the central parts you will interact with (You can see me holding the sleeve in the below image). Cleaning is pretty straightforward, but I had issues drying all the separate parts quickly, which left me with a deconstructed sex toy sitting on my bedroom dresser overnight.

Ease of use
Although the two controls on the ADRIAN are simple in theory, they can be difficult to press while in use. Firstly, both the power/function button and the color change button are the same size and shape and placed at the unit’s base. When in use, the base faces away from your body, and navigating which button is which becomes super tricky. This killed the mood for me a couple of times when I first started testing. On the other hand, the controls are well placed if you have a partner helping you with the toy, as they have direct access.
Stimulations
Fascination met intimidation once I had added some water and turned the ADRIAN on. Have you ever lifted the lid of your clothes washer and watched the water swooshing back and forth? ADRIAN is basically a miniaturized version of that. It’s fast-paced and intense, creating a unique sensation unlike anything I’ve felt before. Some may like it, while others may find it too much at first, especially with a relatively heavy motor whirring along with the swooshing water.
I found adding lukewarm water to feel the best, and once I got used to the action, it made me hard like a rock at the base of my local waterfall. I think it took me 3 attempts before I came inside the toy. Still, when I did, it was worth it, with water around my cock giving some otherwordly feel that I doubt you could get from any other toy (or person).
Versatility
ADRIAN is not the most versatile toy in my arsenal, but it has a place. You could use this outside of the bathroom, in theory, but I was a little wary of spilling water everywhere if my cock happened to slip out of the toy mid-stroke. It’s fun as a couples toy if your partner likes to control your pleasure during sex, and they will love the changing light function when you switch off the room lights.
Minor issues I found during testing
Minor flaws with ADRIAN include the lack of detailed instruction guides, which meant I had to face trial and error before enjoying the product. The controls at the base were complex to operate while “in the moment,” but I did learn to use them easily over time.

Who is This For?
The ADRIAN would suit anyone looking for a new sensation that is a change from a regular stroker or masturbator. The fact that you can take it in the shower or bath is great for those who like to jerk off in the privacy of their bathroom or use it with their partner in a steamy spa session. Water-filled sex toys are pretty rare, so it may be the perfect gift for the guy who has everything. People looking to enhance their bedroom performance will also love the ADRIAN, with the stroker designed to prolong orgasms when used without the case.
Who Is This Not For?
If you’re looking for a minimalist-style toy or something that doesn’t have too many moving parts, ADRIAN may not be for you. Although simple to operate, it can feel a little clunky and cumbersome if all you want to do is have a sneaky wank and get on with your day.
If you’re going for something less conspicuous, you’ll find smaller products in this list of the best male masturbators.
How to Clean The ADRIAN?
Clean all parts separately in warm soapy water. Make sure the entire product is completely dry before packing it away.

I Am Sold! Where Can I Buy One?
I bought my ADRIAN directly from the Honey Play Box website. It arrived in no time at all and was discretely packaged.
Alternatives To The ADRIAN Masturbator
The Onyx+
The Onyx+ is another cylinder-shaped stroker that I love. It’s much lighter than the ADRIAN, with fewer moving parts and less noise. The Onyx+ doesn’t have the water-filled function, which is where the ADRIAN shines. However, if you don’t enjoy heavy toys, maybe consider the Onyx+ for a supremely satisfying jerk machine.

Lovense Max 2
Lovense’s Max 2 is a sleek, high-tech cylinder that offers a Fleshlight-style experience with the added benefit of customizable movements and app control. For those looking for a truly premium experience with either yourself or as a couple’s toy, the Max 2 is worth considering. At a much higher price than the ADRIAN, this may be a deciding factor when deciding which of these awesome toys is best for you.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How to store the ADRIAN?
I recommend storing the ADRIAN in a cool, dark place, preferably somewhere private. There’s not much mistaking what it’s used for. Luckily the toy comes with its own storage bag. You can find more sex toy storing tips in this guide.
