Mention Ben Dover to someone and they immediately think of the famous UK porn star and if you are a man you immediately think "how can he manage to mess about with loads of beautiful women by dishing out crappy compliments?"

This well know porn star has turned his hand to sex toys, by creating a range adult toys that he hopes will pull your imagination and breathe new life into your sexual fantasies. But with an excess of sex toys on the market already, are they good enough for you to part with your hard earned cash for?

Ben Dover has released 9 sex toys for your delights, they are:

• Egg Smoothie - a love egg with a silky smooth finish
• G-spot Smoothie - a clitoral stimulator with a silky smooth finish
• Silent Smoothie - a multispeed vibrator with a silky smooth finish
• Celebrity Big Member - a pack of five stretchy cock rings
• Hard Drive - a vibrating cock ring
• Bigger Dick Kit - a penis pump
• Sex Supercharge Kit - worn around the base of the penis for mutual stimulation
• Bendy Bum Beads - long, strong and hard anal beads
• Butt Breaking Kit - a pack of three varying sized butt plugs

The three Smoothie sex toys have a soft, silky like feel to them which makes for some great sensations and makes them by far the best of the range. Both the egg and the vibrator do exactly as they should. One drawback is that the egg isn't multispeed, but the simplicity of the control more than makes up for this. After all you don't want to be fiddling with small dials at that crucial moment.

Ergonomics is something you hear spoken of a lot in the workplace but rarely in the bedroom and the G-Spot Smoothie is an ergonomically designed vibrator. On first inspection the G-Spot Smoothie is, to say the least, weird, but when used, ladies will definitely not be complaining (unless the batteries run out).

Four cock toys in a small collection may seem strange, but they all have very different functions. The Bigger Dick Kit is essentially a basic penis pump with a pressure release valve which is a great safety feature. The Celebrity Big Member are your basic cock rings, with various stimulation nodules on them and are a lot stronger than many we've seen. The Sex Supercharge Kit is worn around the base of the penis and can be used to stimulate the clitoris or the wearers' scrotum. The best of the four though is the Hard Drive. This vibrating cock ring delivers intense vibration to the clitoris thanks to the bullet that slips in the pocket at the front of the ring.

The final two toys are both anal related and go well with what the Ben Dover films are all about. The Bendy Bum Beads are your basic anal beads but, as with the other sex toys in this range, they are better quality and stronger than many of the alternatives available. If you want to test the water with butt plugs then the Butt Breaking Kit is a must buy. There are so many very serious, yet very silly misconceptions about using anal sex toys or engaging in anal play and having three different sized toys in the one package overcomes many of these misconceptions. If you are a beginner then start with the smallest and work your way up.

Many sex toys are designed for individual use while some sex toys just beg to be used by a couple and Ben Dover has covered both of these aspects well with their new range. However there is one toy missing which seems strange - a rabbit.

When you consider the rabbit vibrator is one of the most popular sex toys on the market today it seems strange that Ben Dover hasn't released one. Hopefully they have one in production and I will be able to update this article with a review in the future. If they haven't and someone from Ben Dover reads this, then get designing.

So are Ben Dover sex toys worth your money? The simple answer is yes. Ben Dover has released a great all round range, but a rabbit type vibrator would nicely round the collection off. The prices for them are excellent, not quite the cheapest on the market, but the quality, packaging and assurance that comes from a leading brand name makes up for this.
