Product Review: Devil's Lotus Clit Clamp

In October 2021, Gwen (of Off The Cuffs Podcast fame) published a review of the Devil's Lotus Clit Clamp

I’ll be honest, I’ve never considered using a clit clamp until I saw The Devil’s Lotus. My pussy has been hurt in a whole slew of ways: it’s been kicked, punched, cropped, kubatoned, you name it, but I had never thought to use a clamp until I came across this sleek and delicious-looking torture device from the imaginitave sadists over at Terrible Toyshop. At $29 USD, the price is comparable to other clit clamps on the market, and I was interested in how secure it would be and what the sensation would feel like compared to more standard clamps.

The Devil’s Lotus is simple and intuitive to use—it has five sharp “petals” surrounding a knob that clamps them shut as you twist it. Like most of their toys, it’s completely 3-D printed, making the sensation distinct from other clamps that are typically made of metal. It’s also quite compact, with the whole device standing almost two inches tall with the petals closed. When opened, the petals spread out to just over three inches in diameter. I appreciate that the clamp doesn’t take up much space in my toybox, and it’s super easy to throw into a purse or backpack when I’m on the go. To clean it, I just dabbed some rubbing alcohol onto a paper towel and gave it a thorough wipe.

I looked forward to being able to try this toy with my partner because I had a difficult time trying to get it to stay put on my own. Thankfully, my partner was able to tighten it on my clit with ease. According to the product description, the knob’s generous thread meshes with a helical gear at the base of each petal. This design ensures that the mechanism responsible for closing the petals makes contact with the maximum surface area to make a secure connection. This design is definitely effective in my experience—the grip feels firm and secure, and the knob allows you to fine-tune how acutely you want to feel the clamp’s bite.

Sitting around while wearing the Devil’s Lotus didn’t hurt, but it was uncomfortable in a way that really turns me on. When I wasn’t moving I felt a strong, semi-sharp pressure digging into my clit, and my partner could really make it hurt by fucking with it. He did a lot of pushing and tugging on the device that made me squirm and yell out in pain and pleasure. I didn’t feel much from him rotating the clamp, but we had a lot of fun when he would give the clamp an occasional slap, and when he held a Hitachi against it.
