Kiiroo Keon Review

Kiiroo Keon Review, June 2021

Kiiroo is a new contender for sex toys on the field.

The company is based in Amsterdam between the business and red-light district, so it seems fitting that they are focused on interactive sex toys.

The company was founded in 2013 and specializes in teledildonics.

Which in their terms is “Using technology to forge new and better ways for people to connect, interact and explore because, in an increasingly digitalized world, the need is growing every day.”

Kiiroo originally partnered with Fleshlight to create the “Launch” however that ended up being discontinued leaving an open space in the market. Enter the Keon, Kiiroo’s own entry into the automated male masturbator market. 

What Is The Kiiroo Keon?

This masturbatory contraption is the ultimate automatic sex toy for men. It is a step forward for male sex toys that has been anticipated for quite some time.

This automatic masturbator is basically 2 cases, the exterior can move the interior with the sleeve in it up and down. The Keon is equipped with its own removable sleeve inside a case, “The Feel Stroker”.

This makes it so that if you so choose you can use the stroker without the Keon if you wanted to. This is an update from the previous version of the Keon which used replaceable silicone sleeves that weren’t very good on their own.

Kiiroo Keon Review, June 2021

ABS plastic, Polycarbonate, and Silicone

220mm tall x 130mm x 146mm, or 8.6” tall x 5.1” X 5.75”

1.1 kg or 2.42 pounds

Kiiroo really outdid themselves with how many strokes per minute the Keon is capable of.  230 Strokes per minute, makes it a full fifty Strokes per minute ahead of the competition.

A lot of folks say The Strokes per minute feature doesn't matter as much since they don't use it full blast all the time. To which I say, of course not, it only matters at the end!

The installed battery in the device is a 16.8V 700mAh battery. The higher voltage on the batteries means it will provide a decently powerful thrusting motion.

The 700mAh battery is on the smaller side in comparison to the voltage and as a result, the run time is 30min - 2 hours depending on settings. With a 4 hour charging time, you better make sure to plug in your toy after every use or you might find yourself switching to manual mode sooner than expected.

The Keon has a stroker inside of the device, this “Real Feel Stroker” is made of high-quality TPE and resembles a Fleshlight. The stroker is body-safe and resembles real skin-like softness and texture.

The interior texture of the stroker is very reminiscent of the “Stamina Training Unit” by Fleshlight because of all the interior bumps. After getting a first-hand account from my partner it now makes sense why these bumps are there,  apparently, they are extremely stimulating. 

Experience

Since I don't have the necessary equipment to do this review properly myself,  I have employed my partner to help me finish off this review, and himself in the process.

Most of the remarks I make about the usage and features of the toy come directly from the mouth of my partner after using the toy himself.  

During some of these product reviews, there are interactive elements to them which make it very beneficial to have a willing partner such as my own. The Kiiroo Keon comes with a variety of ways to create an interactive experience with your partner, or even yourself. Let's jump right in and explain.

The first thing we did when the package arrived was plug in the Keon for its first charge.

Time is never moved slower than when you are waiting for your newly-arrived sex toy to charge, the anticipation is too much. As it says it took roughly 4 hours to charge using a micro USB cable. 

A micro USB cable is a nice touch as I'm almost certain I have at least one spare cable in every room of my house. Charging up the Keon is mandatory as both Manual and Interactive modes require power. Switch between modes is as simple as holding down the small button above the power button on the underside of the device near the charging port. 

Manual Mode

You will know you are in manual mode when the mode button turns white. In manual mode, you can select the speed and strokes from the buttons on either side of the device. This mode is a great way to get accustomed to your new toy and familiarize yourself with the different sensations and feedback.

The buttons on the left side of the Keon control the length of the stroke and the buttons on the right control the speed of the stroke. Take your time going through all the various options and find your favorite combination.

Since sex toys are subjective and can take a significant amount of trial and error, manual mode is a great option for experimenting and finding out what emotions and feelings you prefer. If you need to pause your session for any reason pressing the power button will pause and the light will turn purple. Simply press the power button again to resume your session. 

Interactive Mode

Interactive Mode is not as simple, it requires the download and use of the FeelConnect 3.0 app. the app can be downloaded on the Google Play store or the Apple Store. Any previous versions have to be updated or they will not work with the Keon. 

Manual mode is great, but the Keon really shines when used in the Interactive mode. The Keon allows for you to connect to interactive Virtual Reality porn, sync with other toys, pair with VR content and interactive webcam shows.

The connections are all made through Bluetooth to the FeelConnect App which has become significantly easier to use since the recent revamp. The app allows for storage of your favorite media and device connections, allowing for quick and hassle-free relaxation. 

The Keon is compatible with multiple other Kiiroo devices such as the Pearl 2. Strokes along the surface area of the Pearl 2 will translate across the Keon and deliver a similar thrust on your penis. For the most part, the majority of interactive male sex toys are limited by how realistically they can deliver sensations by the type of motion they perform.

The Keon does not have this issue as it has a full range of motion. While interactive sex toys can still be a bit difficult and off, the Keon is the clear new champion for delivering the most realistic VR sex experience. 

The Real Feel Stroker

The “Real Feel Stroker” is the default sleeve that is used with the Keon device. It can be removed from the Keon and allow you to go to town with the sleeve as you please. It’s very similar to a Fleshlight.

My partner mentioned that the internal texture of the sleeve is almost identical to the Fleshlight Stamina Training Unit, one of the most popular choices on the market.

He mentions that the sleeve on its own is very stimulating and is on par with Fleshlight sleeves.

As mentioned earlier, the texture of the sleeve has tiny bumps on it which seemed like a boring texture to me, however, my partner was quick to mention that the sleeve was perfect for the automatic stroker.

A more complex internal shape could cause problems that the simplicity of this design won’t.

Connectivity

The Bluetooth connectivity feature also means that it be controlled by another individual. As a person who enjoys remote intimacy whenever the real thing isn’t around, it is appreciated that the Kiiroo Keon brings the male interactive sex toy market up to date.

This isn’t just great for myself but for all of those couples stranded in a long-distance relationship. The personal connection that these types of toys can bring between couples is underrated and can do leaps and bounds for your relationship, communication, and openness. 

Maintenance And Care

The Keon is fairly small and compact making it pretty simple to store. Before storing it away after use, make sure to give it a thorough cleaning. There are a number of ways you can do this properly and effectively, such as using a specialized sex toy cleaner. As far as cleaning the sleeve of the Keon, there are a few extra steps to follow.

  1. 1
    Remove the Feel Stroker from the Keon.
  2. 2
    Remove the Sleeve from the outer casing of the Feel Stroker.
  3. 3
    Rinse the sleeve with warm water or a specialized toy cleaner.
  4. 4
    Allow the sleeve to air dry
  5. 5
    Rinse or wipe down the outer casing with antibacterial wipes.
  6. 6
    After the sleeve has air dried, use a renewing powder over your sleeve to keep it smooth and soft.

A quick tip, Most renewing powders are nothing more than cornstarch or baby powder repackaged in another box, try using those as an alternative to keeping your sleeves fresh. 

Allowing sleeves to air dry is just as important as making sure the sleeve is thoroughly washed. Improperly dried sleeves can be wet and humid causing bacteria and germs to grow. Avoid using oil-based lube as well as it can degrade silicone and cause micro bumps to form that can harbor bacteria. Avoiding germs and unpleasantries on my sex toys and genitalia is definitely something I can stand behind, nobody wants to deal with the alternative. 

Overall Recommendation

Kiiroo has said they use their own in-house blend of TPE and not super skin to create their sleeves. They obviously did a great job as the materials and texture of the sleeve is perfect for the Keon. A lot more hinges on a proper sleeve texture in these types of toys than you would think at first.

The hundreds of tiny bumps apply force to your penis as they move up and down, giving a sensation throughout the entirety of the sleeve and not just the orifice.

The combination of texture and material used for the Keon is perfect and I can’t imagine a better combination. The suction cap at the end of the feel stroker can also add a lot of fine-tuning to get the most out of the device. 

Manual mode on any sex toy should be a sufficient display of its capabilities, seeing as many folks out there surely don’t feel like going through the process of connecting their phone just for a quick session. 

The 8 different speed settings plus the 4 settings for stroke length offering up to 6 inches of movement are already much more than is available for most other sex toys on manual mode. The button presses are not difficult or too convoluted to use which should be key as I don’t feel like fumbling for settings in the heat of the moment. 

Once the interactive mode is thrown into the mix, we get ourselves a product with crazy potential. I highly recommend this product to any guys out there, relationship or not, this machine is a blast to use by yourself or with your partner. While a bit on the pricier side, the luxury features of the Kiiroo Keon are more than worth the value.
