For me, it’s an unequivocal yes. In a world where Big Tech is clamouring to win the AI arms race to make every aspect of our personal and professional lives more convenient, we should expect the same of our sex toys – and that’s where the Arcwave Pow sets itself apart from the gross fleshlights of yesteryear. Reasonably priced. No charging. Easy to clean. Feels spectacular. Convenient as hell. Weirdly there's nothing quite like the Pow on the market. The Arcwave Voy has definitely contributed a lot of its DNA here, but it doesn't have the same length; something simple like the Lovehoney Reversible XL Double Stroker offers a slightly similar experience, but it's nowhere near as premium. WOW Tech™ Europe GmbH, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, is the sexual wellness products company that brings you the Arcwave products. All of the design and engineering of our patented products is done in Germany. But is the Pow powerful enough to push it into the pantheon of the best sex toys for men or, for that matter, the best sex toys full stop? It's a weird one. It... might be? Let's explore what's good, what's not so good, and you can make your own mind up. The Arcwave Pow has two sides you can use. Options: we love them. One side is tighter, and the other – yep, you guessed it – is somewhat looser. If you were to ask me which one was my favourite, I’d probably reply like a proud parent and refuse to give you an answer (despite clearly appreciating and spending more time with one over the other). Initial experimentation was half the fun of adding the Arcwave Pow to the rotation, and it’s nice to always have the option to mix things up should the mood strike.

Ion’s storage base is more than just a second home. When you return your Ion to its base, it starts charging automatically. Automatic DryTech The suction might be experiencing a mild flop era, but the Arcwave Pow more than compensates for it with the brand’s signature silicone. I can envision lab-coat-wearing scientists working for hours fine-tuning this material, labouring over the smallest of details, throwing test tubes and bunsen burners to the floor during fits of passion, desperately trying to perfect the unperfectable. Pow can be cleaned using water and soap or a specially formulated toy cleaning solution. Simply remove the silicone inner sleeve from the outer case to clean. Leave to air dry before reassembly. OK, well, let's start with the suction: it vaguely works. Sort of. Covering the pressure release valve adds a small amount of suction, but less than you'd get from a typical closed-ended toy because of those vent holes. Attempting to cover them is nigh-on impossible, even with gigantic hands – you're going to have to get dexterous with two hands at once if you want to do that, a process which feels a little extra and proves highly distracting. Basically, this isn't the toy for you if suction is your goal. It's a pleasing extra, but not really the main event. Arcwave products are designed to become a natural part of the male masturbation experience and can be used to create a special, new type of orgasm. Arcwave supports modern masculinity and wants men to explore their curiosities.Simply wash your Arcwave product with Arcwave™ toy cleaner – made by pjur® or soap and water after every use. A 10% bleach solution can be used to clean if desired. To avoid battery or motor damage, DO NOT BOIL your We-Vibe products, place them in the dishwasher or subject them to temperatures higher than body temperature. With the launch of our flagship product - Arcwave Ion - we show the Female Orgasm is not just something to celebrate, and also emulate - by delivering a more varied, more exciting, more rollercoaster ride to climax. Arcwave™ Ion is the world’s first Pleasure Air™ stroker, created to intensify the orgasm experience. Research has shown that pleasure receptors in the clitoris play a key role in achieving intense orgasms. This research discovered that the tip of the penis actually has the same pleasure receptors (called Pacinian pleasure receptors) as a clitoris – traditional stimulation techniques like manual stroking, sex or oral stimulation do not fully activate these receptors. Ion specifically targets the frenulum with powerful air pulses to deliver a more intense, unique type of orgasm. Pleasure Air™ is different than vibration stimulation. With Ion, Pleasure Air™ delivers powerful air pulses to the frenulum on the tip of the penis. Ion features 8 intensity levels to choose how gentle or powerful you would like your air pulses to feel.

In 2020, Arcwave was born into the WOW Tech Group house of brands, the global industry leader in pleasure innovation. Founded in Berlin, WOW Tech Group has offices in Berlin, Ottawa, and Hong Kong. WOW Tech products are available at thousands of retail stores and online shops in over 60 countries around the world. Given it’s a manual stroker (read: zero electrical components), you can get straight to business – a different change of pace from other Arcwave products like the Ion, which involves a very worthwhile learning curve and initial set-up. Using the Arcwave Pow Try using Arcwave™ Lube - made by pjur® - or another high-quality water-based lubricant. Even regular soap & water could be used to ease the removal. This segues perfectly to what I personally believe is the Arcwave Pow’s biggest drawcard: ease of cleaning. If you’re using it with the cap on, then everything’s captured within the product when you’ve finished the deed. Convenient!

Did you know you can find the same nerve endings in the clitoris as you can in the penis? They are called Pacinian receptors. Ion gets you closer than ever to a female orgasm with its pulsating airwaves. Technology Experience Your Newgasm Arcwave designers’ refined and stylish approach adds a touch of class to the world of male pleasure for the first time. Every aspect of our products has been painstakingly crafted with love and precision, not only to provide exciting new levels of pleasure, but also to help destigmatize male masturbation. For the best experience, we recommend using Arcwave™ Lube – made by pjur® or a another high-quality, water-based lubricant with Arcwave products. Here’s what to look for in a quality water-based lubricant: Let's put the Arcwave Pow in its place: for all the little irritations we were able to find with it, it's really not bad. This is an affordable toy, one without the gaudy anatomical theatrics that certain others employ. It has a clean design, an effective texture, it's easy to maintain, and there are plenty of ways to use it. Women have shown the way as trailblazers of social liberation when it comes to masturbation, and men can be seen as significantly behind. Now, Arcwave allows men to access the same level of quality in a similarly sophisticated way, providing a completely new type of sensation.
