I wanted to indulge in the luxury of a Suede Whip Lelo of me and my treasure. So far, we were very pleased with all products from Lelo, and never had a problem. But this is really not a whip figurehead for Lelo. She comes elegantly packaged therefore, is also very good in the hand, but the leather fringes are still very fragile. They fall apart as soon as you pull it quite easily. This makes suede really. For this purpose a good piece smells very musty, not typical leather. Maybe I caught a Monday product but again I will not buy this whip. Thanks Amazon absolutely no problem in restitution.
