Marital Aid Test Kitchen: Stockroom’s Lube Shooters

No, they're not the hot new drink that all the sorority girls are guzzling down (well, not yet). They're an innovative product from J.T.'s Stockroom that hopes to change the way you lube.

Have you ever had one of those nights where you're getting yourself ready for some awesome anal play...and the lube somehow manages to wind up everywhere on the bed except for your ass? Stockroom feels your pain: and their lube shooter aims to fix what ails you. A small, syringe-shaped piece of plastic, the lube shooter guides your lube to exactly where it needs to go (hint: your butt).

The lube shooters work exactly as directed: with one little squirt, I was lubed and ready to go (and, I might add, that little shooter felt pretty good in my, ahem, shoot). However, it's not without its problems. Specifically:

It's one time use only. A lube shooter package comes with three shells and one plunger. The shells are to be disposed after every use, the plunger can be reused a few times. Yes, this is probably easier (and potentially more sanitary) than making a shell that can just be sterilized, but it's kind of annoying. Especially since

It doesn't come preloaded with lube. Again, we understand the idea here: it's nice to know that the shooter's loaded with our favorite lube. However, it's a little cumbersome (especially since most lube bottles aren't designed to work like this), and since it's one time use only anyway, it'd kinda be nice to be able to just lube and chuck (as it were).

But aside from that, the lube shooters did leave us happy (and well-lubed), so there's not that much to complain about. Granted, it's not an absolute necessity, but it is a nice touch—especially if you're gearing up for a wild—yet clandestine—night in your parents' guest bedroom.
