About We Tried This WeTriedThis

We explore modern intimacy and only share what's worth your time.

Our approach to modern intimacy

Finding sexual wellness products that actually deliver is harder than it should be.

There's a lot out there, but not much that's clear or genuinely useful.

We wanted something simpler.

WeTriedThis is where we use & review products, and keep only the ones that stand out.

If something doesn't hold up, it doesn't make it here.


How we got here

This started as a side project between two people who spend way too much time researching products, talking about relationships, and wondering why intimacy still feels so awkward to talk about openly.

Over time, curiosity turned into recommendations, recommendations turned into conversations, and eventually into this website.

Why trust us

We test products ourselves and compare them to similar options in the same category.

We look for what actually works in real use, not what sounds good on a product page.

If something feels off, underwhelming, or not worth the price, we leave it out.

You won't find everything here. Only what's worth your time.


How we review products

We look at the same things every time:

Design and build quality

Does it feel well made, and like it'll last?

Ease of use

Is it easy to use, or hard to figure out?

Comfort

Does it actually feel good, or does it get uncomfortable?

Experience

Does it do what it's supposed to do?

Value

Is it worth the price?


Our editorial independence

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission.

That's what keeps the site running. But it doesn't change what we recommend.

Products aren't ranked by commission. Brands don't write our reviews. Negative feedback stays in.

That depends on the retailer.
