XtoysLoving Joy 9 Inch Hollow Strap On Review: Hands-Free, Hollow, Honest
Editor's opinion
The Loving Joy 9 Inch Hollow Strap On pairs a hollow, textured dildo with a stretchy elastic harness for straightforward hands-free wear. Its hollow design makes it flexible for shared and unisex play, but at 22 cm insertable it is firmly at the larger end and not a first strap-on for the receiving partner.
The Loving Joy 9 Inch Hollow Strap On sets out to do two jobs at once. As a hollow dildo it can be worn by a partner who wants to add length or supplement their own anatomy, and as a strap-on it offers a simple, no-power, ready-when-you-are option for couples exploring pegging or shared play.
The appeal here is simplicity: an elastic harness that stretches rather than buckles, and a dildo that needs nothing charging or switching on. What a buyer really needs to weigh is the size. At 22 cm insertable with a 15 cm girth, this is a substantial piece, and the hollow interior means it behaves quite differently from a solid strap-on.
The good and the bad
What works
- Hollow design suits both supplementing anatomy and hands-free wear
- Stretchy elastic harness adapts to a range of body shapes with no fiddly buckles
- No batteries or charging, so it is ready whenever you are
- Cushioned base eases pressure at the point of contact for the wearer
What to be aware of
- At 22 cm insertable and 15 cm girth, far too large for beginners on the receiving side
- Elastic harnesses give less stability and control than a structured buckle harness
- The 3.8 cm inner diameter suits only certain wearers as a hollow sleeve
- Material and lubricant compatibility are not stated, so check before buying
Buy it if
Couples who already enjoy larger sizes and want a simple hollow strap-on for pegging or shared play, or a wearer who wants to add noticeable length. It suits people who prefer easy elastic fitting over an adjustable buckle harness.
Skip it if
Anyone new to strap-on play or to receiving penetration. A first purchase should be considerably smaller, ideally solid rather than hollow, and buyers who want firm control should look at a structured harness with a buckle system.
Design and materials
This is a two-part set: a textured hollow dildo and a stretchy elastic harness. The hollow interior, with a stated inner diameter of 3.8 cm, is what makes the product versatile. It can be worn as a sleeve to supplement a wearer's own anatomy, or used purely as a strap-on for hands-free penetration. The elastic harness stretches to fit rather than adjusting with buckles, which makes it quick to put on but inherently less locked-in than a structured harness.
The product page does not state the material, and material matters a great deal for a toy like this. If the dildo is a TPE or PVC blend, as many hollow strap-ons are, it should be treated as porous and paired with a water-based lubricant, cleaned thoroughly and not shared without a condom. It is worth confirming the material before buying if that is important to you.
Size and who it suits
There is no getting around the numbers. An insertable length of 22 cm and a girth of 15 cm place this firmly at the large end of the market. For an experienced receiving partner that may be exactly the point, but for anyone new to penetration it is a great deal to take on, and starting here would be a mistake.
The hollow sleeve function has its own size logic. A 3.8 cm inner diameter is fairly slim, so it will suit some wearers as a sleeve and not others. Anyone buying primarily for that purpose should measure honestly against that figure.
Comfort and stability in use
The cushioned base is a sensible touch, since a hard base pressing against the body is a common complaint with cheaper strap-ons. The padding should reduce that pressure point for the wearer.
The trade-off is the elastic harness. Stretchy straps are forgiving and easy to fit across different body shapes, but they allow more movement and give less precise control than a firm buckle harness. For gentle, exploratory play that is fine; for anything more vigorous, expect to do some readjusting, and don't expect the pinpoint stability a structured harness provides.
Care and cleaning
Wash both the dildo and the harness before and after every use with warm water and a proper toy cleaner, and let them dry fully before storing. This is especially important if the dildo material turns out to be porous, as it will hold onto residue.
A compatible lubricant will make wear and insertion far more comfortable, which at this size is not optional. Until the material is confirmed, a water-based lubricant is the safe default, as it works with virtually every toy material and won't risk degrading the surface.
How it compares
Against a solid strap-on, this hollow version wins on versatility, since it can double as a wearable sleeve, but a solid dildo generally transmits movement more directly and feels more substantial to the wearer.
Against strap-ons with buckle harnesses, this one is quicker and easier to fit but offers less control and adjustability. If you value a fast, no-fuss set-up and the flexibility of a hollow design, it makes sense. If you want a locked-in fit or a beginner-friendly size, other options serve better.
The bottom line
The Loving Joy 9 Inch Hollow Strap On is a sensible, simple choice for couples who already enjoy larger sizes and want the flexibility of a hollow design with a fuss-free elastic harness. It is emphatically not a first strap-on, and the unconfirmed material and generous dimensions are worth checking against your own needs before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
Is this suitable for a beginner?
No. At 22 cm insertable and 15 cm girth this is a large product. Anyone new to strap-on or penetrative play should start with something considerably smaller and ideally solid rather than hollow.
What lubricant should I use with it?
The product page does not confirm the material. Until you know it, a water-based lubricant is the safest choice, as it is compatible with virtually all toy materials. A good lubricant is essential for comfort at this size.
How does the hollow design work?
The hollow interior, with an inner diameter of 3.8 cm, lets a wearer slot part of their own anatomy inside to add length, or the piece can be worn purely as a strap-on for hands-free penetration.
Does the harness fit different body sizes?
The harness is elastic and stretches to fit a range of body shapes rather than adjusting with buckles. This makes it quick and easy to put on, though it offers less precise control than a structured harness.
Does it need batteries or charging?
No. This is a non-powered strap-on, so there is nothing to charge or switch on. It is ready to use whenever you are, once cleaned.
