I was lucky enough to be selected to test this product before it hit the shelves (or should that be webpage’s?) of Lovehoney so here is my unbiased opinion! As always it came in the discreet brown jiffy bag, giving no hint of what is inside! The product itself comes in a plain card box and inside we find a plastic wrapper and tissue paper protecting the product. Once unwrapped, the first thing I thought was ‘wow, this looks scary’! It was originally used to test nerve reactions in the medical profession but then I think it kind of looks like something you might find in your kitchen utensil drawer! The Pinwheel itself is quite weighty and feels very well made from its stainless steel construction. The wheel isn’t as sharp as I expected, which actually I was quite relieved about, having never tried one before. So, playtime! The first thing I noticed whilst holding it was how cold it was and that you could use it for cold sensation play with the handle. But of course its main aim is the spikes! So what to do with it? I ran it up and down my arms a few times, then my hands and it felt quite relaxing (not what I expected) it doesn’t leave any marks and it was kind of therapeutic. However I then tried pressing more firmly and that is where it gets interesting. When pressure is applied it becomes a bit more intense, the wheel leaves temporary marks along the skin and you can actually make some pretty patterns whilst you are at it! It does hurt a little as you may expect but not too painful. This is a toy where you would really have to trust your partner with and communication is key as I think it is all about the suspense and build up of the sensation. Using it on sensitive areas such as nipples or genitals means you need to be careful but running it lightly along the shaft of my penis was pretty interesting and arousing, although I was a little wary at first. All in all I think this is a great toy for beginners as it is great quality and an easy introduction into medical play.

I am no stranger to Bondage Boutique, I own a multitude of their products, but this is the first pinwheel I have had from them, thanks to Lovehoney chosing me to test and review the product on their behalf. The Bondage Boutique Stainless Steel Wartenberg Pinwheel doesn’t come in any fancy packaging, just a simple, clear plastic bag. It would have been a bonus if it came in some kind of storage box. I don’t know about others, but how the heck do you store your pinwheels? At the moment, I’m storing it in a Lovehoney bondage bag, the material is thicker, so there is less chance for the pins to poke through. Back to the wheel….This pinwheel is quite a weighty little number, due to the thickness off the handle and just oozes quality. The wheel itself features 21 evenly spaced sharp pins and can be easily controlled by the ergonomic handle, which has ridges to aid gripping. I own a few variations of pinwheels, mainly with multiple of rows of pins, but I find that the single pinwheel offers me more sensation, as the power is driven through one wheel, rather than several. I like to use my pin wheel in BDSM scenes. There are many uses, from simply rolling across various body parts, whilst you control the pressure, to popping the wheel in a glass of ice and then used to roll over a freshly spanked or flogged bottom. The added cold sensation, will see you sub squirming and wriggling at your touch! Stainless steel is body safe and doesn’t rust. You can sterilize the pin wheel after each use, to ensure it is thoroughly cleaned. This pinwheel is suitable for beginners and advanced users alike, you can easily control how you use it and it doesn’t cause pain if you’re a beginner. It can be rather ticklish when used lightly. For more advanced players, you can have fun with adding a violet wand and a body contact. A great essential for every bondage kit.

The Whartenberg pinwheel might look a bit sadistic but it’s really not. I love using this having it being ran down my body, just very lightly, making areas more sensitive than they already are. If you’ve been “naughty” then it is also good to use as “punishment”, having it rolled lightly on the clit or across extremely sensitive nipples. I’ve used on the of these for years and it is definitely a bedroom essential

Saw this on an offer so I added into my bag as a wildcard. Never played with something like this before but I love sensation play and this feels absolutely amazing when blindfolded and restrained. It is not as scary as it looked like it could be, and had a tickle prickle feeling and I love the surprise of it mixed in between soft feathers, paddles and tongues. A great addition to my growing toy box I’m hooked!

I bought this wheel because I was scared about buying the 3 wheel one, I shouldn’t have worried at all. The spikes are small and not particularly sharp but as with everything it’s how you use it. Lightly it produces a almost tickly sensation but you can press down harder to make someone squirm. Be careful I have accidentally drawn blood with it so just make sure to keep it clean.

First time ive tried a pin wheel and i love it. You can vary the pressure to enhance pleasure and pain. Its nice and versatile just wish it had a different grip or bigger handle. Love the chrome colour and sharp pins. Defo want to try this more and not just on the breast

This was the first bondage toy I’d ever purchased. I was sceptical at first as my pain threshold (previously) was not great. However, this spices everything up!! Paired with a blindfold this toy is amazing at getting me wet. The small pricks are slightly painful but can be changed to your taste (with pressure). Used over the nipples this toy is extremely intense. My boyfriend used it over my clitoris and god was I screaming. Furthermore, with restraints this toy passed all control to your partner which immediately gives the sense of complete vulnerability. Overall, this is an amazing foreplay starter and never fails to leave me dripping!

Perfect for spicing up and romantic encounter. As expected arrived in timely fashion in discreet packaging. As someone into the kinkier side of bedroom play I decided to use it on my other half after a practice run to find her pain limitations (recommended) you can use it just about anywhere however I found the back and upper thighs brings a good element of pain/ pleasure! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to add something a little different to their sexlife

I bought this as a surprise for my OH. While it turns out that this isn’t the toy for them, I really enjoy it, and they love to use it on me when I have no way of stopping them. It can be used lightly to tickle, but pressed more firmly, can really make me squirm. I’ve never had any bruises or marks as a consequence, no matter where on my body this is used.
Livvy69 (verified owner) –
I love how it feels on the skin, especially when you trail it on the skin harder and harder or with swift motions, definitely loving this bad boy, it’s going to be a long time addition to our toy collection to be used on the both of us muahahaha
Dale25 (verified owner) –
Bought it to give it a try and now we use it all the Time, it’s good if you want to add a bit of pain with the pleasure. Can run it lightly over the body of dig a little bit for a little bit of pain. Would recommend if you want to try something different

The pin wheel arrived on time and was discretely packaged. It seems good quality well weighted. My hubby and myself both have very sensitive ticklely backs and we’re wondering how the cold prickle of the wheel would feel. It did not disappoint, when gently rolled over sensitive areas it definitely caused a prickly frenzy, it would also give a stronger pleasure pain sensation if you apply more pressure, for those that are into that sort of thing. My hubby also tried it on my inner thighs while I was blind folded and although it wasn’t enough on its own to cause an orgasm ,it definitely made a wet patch. Would recommend to anyone who would like to try a more prickly sensation or the feel of cold metal on hot flesh .

I have been looking for one of these for a while so I though I’d pick one up in the buy 2 get 25% off. Feel heavenly against the skin, easily rolls around. my partner loves it and says it reminds him of getting his tattoos done. I have never owned one of these before and extremely enjoyed it being run down my spine.
Feather97 (verified owner) –
Kind of a spur of the moment buy, definitely not unpleasant by any means, however was kind of hoping for more sensations, i guess that’s just the way Wartenberg wheels are. if you’re looking to try something new and have a bit to spend i would advise this and try it for yourself.

I own a lot of pinwheels as they are one of my favourite type of kink toys. This is a more traditional style of pinwheel, but that doesn’t make it any less fab. This pinwheel is highly polished and aesthetically very pleasing. The grooves on the handle part are comfortable to hold and help you keep a good grip on the pinwheel. It is a nice, well-balanced weight and a good length; short enough so it is easy to control and long enough that you can easily reach all of your partner’s most sensitive areas. The pins are all free of burrs, something that you see a lot with cheaper versions on the market. The more pins on a pinwheel, the lower the intensity. This pinwheel has a lot of pins so has a lower intensity, which is makes this pinwheel a great starting place if you have never tried a pinwheel. However, if you love a sharp scratch type sensation, this may not be the pinwheel for you. However, the pins still provide a brilliant prickly feeling, similar to the feeling you get at the start of pins and needles, but in a good way. It will certainly awaken the nerve endings in the skin, making it far more sensitive to even the lightest touch. This pinwheel is fantastic for warm up play and is also great in combination with other toys, such as feathers and small floggers. Speaking of feathers, this is a very similar toy as it awakens the nerve endings. However, it looks much scarier, and fear can be fun to play with. It would be difficult, although not impossible, to draw blood from this toy so you don’t have to be too careful. Start slowly, and as your partner gets more comfortable, add a bit more speed and/or pressure. I know when you first receive this there will be the temptation to try it on yourself. I would never discourage this but I would urge you to hand this over to your partner to let them use it on you. I feel a marked difference between me using it on me and someone else using it on me, possibly because I cannot control the sensation. That being said, this can still be used as a solo toy. This isn’t a revolutionary pinwheel, but it is a great addition to any toy box. It is simple to use and gives amazing sensations. If you aren’t into BDSM, don’t completely write this toy off, yes it is considered more of a kinky toy, but it is a great toy for adding something different to sex.

Now I’m not gonna lie when my partner approaches me in bed with this thing in his hands I… well there no other way to put it, I run out the door. It isn’t a bad toy really great for some intense BDSM and fun but after a while ours began to jam and well when the wheel doesn’t spin things tend to get a bit well…. scratchy lmao.
Lucifear616 (verified owner) –
This sort of item had appealed to my partner for a while but when we saw it in a high street store for this sort of thing the price was ridiculous, so when it came to me decided to buy a little package of items to surprise here with and I saw the price on here it was an obvious inclusion. The item has a nice weight to it and a smooth rotating head, great feel and really excites my partner, I’m still getting used to it as I have trouble with my nerves so am scared of putting on too much pressure and hurting her but so far nothing to worry about, will definitely use again soon.
Bobafettish91 (verified owner) –
This is without a doubt the best single pinwheel I own, it rolls smooth with an occasional metal on metal squeek to help the sub feel a bit more on edge. Pair this with a mouth only hood and a hog tie for a great time for all involved, we mix it up with a feather tickler and vibrator so you won’t know what’s coming. It is sharp but not dangerous, application of pressure isn’t a problem and there haven’t been any long lasting marks… Yet.
Nudels (verified owner) –
My wife loved it when I twirled this wheel all over her bare skin. She said it felt very intense, but not painful at all. A great foreplay activity. It was very easy to use. Though, it did squeak a little bit from time to time. Two thumbs way up!
Buttterflies (verified owner) –
this plus a blind fold and a teasing partner- couldn’t ask for anything better. the pins are just sharp enough to send tingles down your spine and keep you wondering where next. is a good tool for pain play and beginners or novices. can hurt but doesn’t puncture skin so it’s good if you dont want marks left
Cassii (verified owner) –
Was a but nervous before getting this as it looks a little scary, but reviews were positive so we gave it a shot. It’s now been part of the repertoire for a good few years. The wheel is well crafted, metal handle with ridges which makes it easy to hold and lends a certain weight. The wheel moves easily and the spikes aren’t as sharp as I was afraid they’d be. Using this gently across the skin is a wonderful sensation and can be made stronger to meet the recipients needs by adding extra pressure. It’s particularly good for sensation play when you have time to dedicate to really playing properly.
Hithere (verified owner) –
I had a play with one of these years ago and wanted one ever since, so thank you to LH for adding this to the site 🙂 I love the sensation of this against the skin, particularly blindfolded so you don’t know where it will go next. Also great without a blindfold, but tied up so that you anticipate before it touches you. The pinwheel looks scary, but they don’t hurt, at all. Even if you press hard. I have to say that this has been used in very intimate places as well as less kinky places, and it was alllll good! Try it, you might love it 😉

Partner didn’t know I’d purchased some new toys.. This being one of them. It sent her into another pleasurable world as she’s always wanted to try pinwheel. Especially in a few scenarios we have set up. Definately one for the sensitive areas.. Squeaked a little at first but it soon went way with use.
Cxxxxx (verified owner) –
Bought this for myself and my partner to try something new, the toy looked really scary but also a lot of fun. The illusion was kind of ruined as, as I went to use it all it did was squeak so loud that it ruined the moment. Overall it is built well but might need to come with something to stop the squeak
Joey (verified owner) –
This little wheel is well worth it’s price. A cheap, easy and fun way to start BDSM sensation play. It looks scary but so easy to play with so is a great choice for beginners. It feels well made and is great for experimenting on your partner to find all their sensitive areas. Start light and let the wheel run over their body without any pressure but once you get used to it you can experiment with pressing down. Would be great paired with a set of restraints and blindfold and we particularly enjoyed mixing the sensations with a softer tickler!
Kittyandbeast (verified owner) –
My partner got this for us to both explore with. It felt amazing having it gently tickled across my clit & also on other parts of the body feels good too. He enjoyed me using the Pinwheel on his balls. This Pinwheel is good for beginners as the spikes aren’t too harsh.
Warren (verified owner) –
On first sight of this, it looks a bit scary and an interrogation instrument with all the pins, but I really enjoy using it on my partner, and watching her squirm!! Also great for torturing others….only kidding lol. It can be a little sharp if you put to much pressure on it but if you use it lightly it gives a great sensation over your body. It seems very solid and we have had no problems with, it’s a great item to add to your collection.
Sala93 (verified owner) –
Looking at this product I thought NOPE that weapon of torture is going nowhere near me. My partner had purchased it and I certainly had my reservations. I am a fairly anxious person and not into Dom/Sub play or the idea of tease/torture play. My partner let me feel this by running it up my arm to show me how it felt. It was surprisingly a light sensation that caused my skin to prickle. He moved across my body to see which areas I reacted to. I found across my clavicle and down my neck so thrilling it gave me goosebumps and made my clitoris pulse with anticipation. We later incorporated a blindfold into the mix which only further heightened my senses. The anticipation and release each time he moved across my body became so much I was begging him to touch me. He enjoyed that ALOT. Once I had become better aquatinted with this toy I decided I would have control and play a little too. I ran it up his thighs, across his balls and around his groin. He was practically squealing with pleasure! It really thrills me that we found a toy to both enjoy together! I’m sure some people will be into pressing much firmer and feeling pain but for us it was more about the sensation and anticipation. I really think because of this it is suitable for everyone and not just in bondage. This toy has boosted my confidence and helped me to not feel so ‘vanilla’ anymore!
Leena.A (verified owner) –
I thought it’d be better after seeing all the other reviews, but it is not for me. This was the first time buying one and it was not as sharp as I had hoped. The only sensation I got was a tickle, which for some people will work, but for myself I wanted more

I used this ting for my gf to spice d bed life up. i ended up cutting my dick off now i am gurl too. would not reccomend to anyone who doesnt want to change genders.
Mr.D (verified owner) –
This little guy is a must have for all you sensory pleasure people amazing for the light pleasure to make your skin tingle to if you roll a little harder can make you squirm
Matt (verified owner) –
Well built especially for the price, doesn’t stick and is a good weight. Used it whilst partner was blindfolded and it was much more enjoyable for both of us than we expected. Is sharp but not sharp enough toPierce the skin unless you apply a lot ofPressure.
Nobbynoballs (verified owner) –
When you see the pin wheel, it will definitely build excitement into your session. This pin wheel provides a unique sensation across all parts of the body. Run up the spine when restrained is very tantalising. Across the nipples increases the pain factor. By the time you reach the private areas you are good to go. The wheel is not too sharp and does not need to be for the purpose
alex_nerd_007 (verified owner) –
Great for sensation play and teasing. Nice and sharp with a good weight to it, the weight means it has a good pressure without being pushed down. Much better then the plastic ones I’ve tried before.
Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
Good little item works well!
KatieAnnabelle (verified owner) –
Less than a tenner, no breakable parts or bits that need charging -a great little gadget that everyone should have in their toybox.Although they can look quite scary, I find that pinwheels can feel pleasurable used lightly, as well as being used with force.The metal heaviness of this means that you can roll it across skin with nothing but the gentle weight of the wheel doing the pressing. If you’re into harder sensation play then you can add some extra force as you move it and create a little bit of pain.I like both ways. Don’t be put off if it looks a bit alarming, it’s worth trying for both soft and hard sensation play. You can try it on your own arm before experimenting with a partner to work out what you might like.The spikes can get caught on things so be careful around delicate clothes or expensive lingerie. But don’t be fooled, it’s a very happy, not scary, little toy

Ah yes, the Wartenberg Pinwheel – one of the symbols that has come to be associated with BDSM. Now, I’m not saying it doesn’t deserve its place, I’m just frustrated about the other things more deserving.Ramble aside – onto the toy!The description I will leave you to read yourself; the construction however: Was brilliant! I had no excess metal, no (unintended) sharp edges, no hooking on the metal. It is exactly as you would hope.The use: Was okay. It is nothing mind breaking… But then I have a negative thing about being tickled… And this is exactly how the toy felt to me – tickling.My partner however did enjoy the toy a great deal more. The sensations for her were teasing, occasionally painful (because I don’t keep spikey things away from sensitive areas) but the whole time was enjoyable. TLDR: A mixed review, not your thing is you don’t like being tickled, great for sensation play though.

First time purchasing and using a pinwheel, feels really great on the skin and we cannot wait to use it more. Has a nice weight to it and feels really well made. Will definitely recommend this product.

Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
Thanks this is great
Garrotjax (verified owner) –
So I got this a few weeks ago and finally put it into action last night, after the Mrs spent some time using a paddle and crop on me. Now the constructions pretty decent, feels solid enough, and the spikes are, well, spikey! They’re decently sharp and whilst I was obviously primed from the previous activities, this pin wheel felt amazing and had me squirming all over the place! I had her really dig it into me and while there was some pin pricks there wasn’t any actual penetrationI would absolutely recommend this product, could be good for sensation play whilst your partners tied up, as well as how we put it to use, as a bit of extra spice when I was zoned out
Sir_and_her (verified owner) –
What a fun way to establish some control. This Wartenberg wheel has a very nice handle that has good weight in the hand and has great control. The spikes are great, they aren’t so sharp that a novice would need to worry about piercing skin, but excess force should be avoided. The wheel spins nicely but has a little play to it. This is great for any experience level and is a fun way to tease a partner.
MM (verified owner) –
The Wartenberg Pinwheel is solidly heavy, more than enough to put some decent pressure behind. I wasn’t sure what to expect in terms of sensation, but it almost resembles a sharp object used for slicing; a thrilling feeling and much more safe with a Wartenberg Pinwheel.That being said, there’s only so much that can be done with such a device to entice the senses. Overall, I recommend this to those that want the safety of a Wartenberg Pinwheel with the sensation of something a bit more menacing.
Aw (verified owner) –
This product may look a bit scary but it’s not. Good weight and feel to it. The pinwheel is very easy to use. You can decide how much pressure you want to apply. This can range from a gentle tickle to as hard as you want. We preferred the teasing tickles. Pleasurable on all parts of the body. Just don’t press too hard unless you are into the pain sensations. No real negatives apart from it gets a bit squeaky after a while
eleanorstoys (verified owner) –
i LOVE this pinwheel, the small design looks not only beautiful but feels even better, the ability to press as hard or as soft as you like to vary the pressure and sensation is incredible. i have had a lot of fun with this on myself and partners, all of which have enjoyed it

Love this thing, everyone should own one. If you’re in to a bit of sensory play, this little wheel is worth every penny.Mine is very sharp, so you can feel even the slightest change of pressure when using this. I’m in love with this little wheel.
Louisew24 (verified owner) –
Most will say it can look a bit intimidating at first however if you can see past this and try it out, I’m sure you will find you actually love it, my dom uses it on me and the anticipation of when he’s going to use it heightens my senses even more!
Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
My SO finds this really relaxing and I can put her to sleep by gently running the wheel over her back and shoulders. It has the opposite effect on me, and yes “Tease me silly” is very accurate as far as I am concerned.
Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
Nice tickling tool gives very sensitve pleasure and partner loves it
Amy (verified owner) –
You’ll be amazed at how fun this little pinwheel toy can be. It’s so enjoyable and invigorating, you won’t believe the sensation of the spokes gliding across your skin. I regret not getting it sooner – it’s great for sensory play and even doubles up as a relaxing massage tool. I was reluctant regarding the price point but the sensations it provides are unachievable via any other items I have meaning it was definitely worth it.
FunTimesAhead (verified owner) –
I was uncertain about this at first, but it was definitely a good choice. The sensations of the spikes running over make me and my partner shiver in a great way.

This has been such a fun and thrilling addition to our bedroom adventures!The wheel spins smoothly, and the spikes are just sharp enough to create a delightful tingling sensation without being too intimidating. It’s perfect for exploring different levels of intensity, from gentle teasing to a firmer touch, depending on what you’re in the mood for.It’s a great add in for sensory play and adds an exciting edge to foreplay. Pairing it with a blindfold and restraints took the experience to a whole new level, heightening anticipation and creating an unforgettable rush of sensation.It’s an amazing tool for anyone curious about light BDSM or looking to explore new ways to connect with their partner. Highly recommend this for anyone wanting to dip their toes into sensation play—you won’t regret it!
Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
This always gets a curious reaction when subs see it. It’s very nice to run up and down their bodies. For men, it’s especially fun to use over their nipples and balls if you have their balls cupped.You can experiment with as much or as little pressure as you want.
Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
This toy is great to have for teasing and to feel different sensations. It’s great to use with a blindfold as the person doesn’t know what you are using with makes it sexy and mysterious. Definitely worth adding to a collection 😏
AnythingOnce (verified owner) –
We picked this out to explore sensory play and have enjoyed it – the spikes are the right sharpness not to be too intense for newbies. The toy itself is sturdy, but be aware that the one we got squeaks as the wheel turns. The metal construction is nice and can double for temperature play if you hold the cold handle up to the right areas. Overall a nice inexpensive investment to see if you’re into further exploration in this area.
Verified-Customer (verified owner) –
Wouldn’t buy it as a first sensory toy but it’s good once you’ve already got a collection of things and want something new and novel
