Review: Décor Stashe Pillow

I always find myself enamored whenever I discover an adult product which is discreet, stylish, and functional. So imagine my delight when I was given the chance to review the Décor Stashe Pillow from Liberator! The Décor Stashe Pillow is part of Liberator's new Home Collection, which is a series of items designed to look mundane, but have some much more interesting uses. The Décor Stashe, for example, appears to be nothing more than a stunning throw pillow. However, the Stashe has a secret; it's actually a crafty storage device, capable of hiding away even your most obtrusive of playthings from prying eyes!

The Décor Stashe Pillow is 12" long, 12" wide, and 4.5" thick. It's about the size of a standard throw pillow, and when tossed on a bed, just looks like a lovely accent piece. It comes in 6 gorgeous color combinations: Black, Buckwheat, Gray, Espresso, Merlot, and Aubergine. I chose the Espresso, which is a rich, chocolatey brown over a dark purple backdrop. The exterior material is comprised of soft, plush velvish and sensual satin. Two decorative velvish flaps fold over the satin backdrop and tie together with a stylish ribbon. Concealed beneath one of these flaps of fabric is our secret compartment. A cleverly hidden zipper running along the pillow's edge opens the storage space, allowing you to stash whatever goodies you have to hide! The compartment is lined with a black, water-resistant nylon. The nylon interior will protect the rest of the pillow from spills, should you choose to store lubricants, oils, or other liquids inside. A generous amount of polyurethane foam provides excellent padding on either side of the compartment. The padding not only makes this pillow incredibly comfy, but also helps prevent damage to your toys. It will not, however, protect the toys from banging into each other. So if you decide to store multiple glass/ceramic toys in your Décor Stashe, you may wish to first slip them into individual pouches to keep them from clanking together.

I absolutely adore the Décor Stashe Pillow's design. Its simple elegance gives it the versatility to blend right in, whether used on a standard cotton bedspread, or $300 silk sheets. It's sensual and gorgeous, without being incriminating or drawing unwanted attention. When I first laid eyes on it, even I thought it was just an average decorative pillow. And really, unless someone tells you otherwise, that's all you're going to see. I will say, however, that sometimes you can catch a glimpse of the zipper at the far corners of the pillow. This is hardly something you'd notice from across the room though, or even up close, unless you were thoroughly inspecting it.

Aside from its style, versatility, and discreetness, I was also incredibly surprised at just how much this bad boy can store! It doesn't look very large at first glance, and even when unzipped, it seems like the padding would take up too much room to leave much space for storage. Astoundingly (gleefully) I was wrong. You would not believe the massive amount of items I could fit into the Décor Stashe Pillow! Five clitoral vibes, three rabbits, a cock ring, a HUGE wooden dildo, four glass wands, three ceramic massage stones, a blindfold, a set of restraints, and a bottle of lube; just a small army of toys and sexessories, to be exact. The possibilities with this baby are endless! Fill it to the brim with playthings, or use it to keep just one or two favorites handy. Seeing as we're never at a loss for storage space, I've currently been using the Décor Stashe Pillow to keep a few otherwise forgotten items close at hand. Specifically the massage stones, massage lotion, and a few of my favorite glass pieces that normally get buried in the trunk of toys. The cushy, soft foam makes the Décor Stashe comfortable to lie on, even while hiding your secret hoard inside. It's sure to fool almost anyone, whether it's roommates, in-laws, children, or nosy house guests. Just don't let anyone pick it up; the weight will more than likely give it away.

The only problem I've had with the Décor Stashe Pillow is the interior lining. It tends to get caught quite frequently in the zipper, no matter how careful I am. I'm just nervous that one day it's going to rip. Excluding that one little issue, I'd have to say that the Décor Stashe Pillow is practically perfect. Thanks so much to my friends over at Liberator for sending me this one for review!
