Texture and material construction: The Joyboxx is made of matte plastic, so it dries quickly and visibly (a nice touch). It's dishwasher-safe, and I've washed it by hand with dish soap and a plain scrubber a few times. It's simple -- no wonky, hard-to-get-to spots. There's a little 'crick' sound when pushing the lid wide, which makes me worry that pushing the lid back too far will break it, but no: It's built to open flat, the lid parallel to the ground. This box is well-made and well-designed.
Review Details: I keep nodding sagely as I put things away in the Joyboxx, as though I can take any kind of credit for the thought that's gone into this toy storage. I'm very pleased with myself, even though all I did was buy it. It's satisfying because it makes sense and it works. The Joyboxx knows that the surface of your bedside table is probably not pristine enough to accommodate a clean toy directly, nor gross enough to put a dirty toy on directly, so it comes with a raised, ventilated, easy-to-clean Playtray. It knows that after you use your toys, you might want to fall asleep and leave the cleanup for later, so the box itself is ventilated and antibacterial. It knows that if you leave your vibrator out to charger or your silicone dildo out to dry after washing, they could attract ~1.3 entire dogs' worth of hair, so it makes sure items can dry and charge from inside the closed box. I could go on (it even knows that you might not want a huge logo front and center!), but basically, it's perfect.
Initially I wished it were bigger (I'd read the measurements and looked at photos and videos but couldn't really grasp it), but I take that back. The Echo Handle and Plunger Paddle are too long for it, which is to be expected, and if you have a large collection, it may not hold everything. It'll probably hold your go-to items, though, and do so better than other options I've seen. Right now it's holding the Tango, Glow, and Dusk (and Tango charger), the Mona 2 with charger, four of Tantus's Little Secret vibe sleeves, their Beginner Ball Gag, ProTouch, Perfect Plug, and Super-Soft C-Ring, a 4-oz. Sliquid bottle, several lube sample packets, a roll of bondage tape, and a pack of Pjur Med wipes. Plus the Playtray.
Speaking of which, if the Joyboxx itself doesn't seem right for you, check out the Playtray on its own to resolve the "Where do I put this when it was just in my body or is just about to be?" issue. The hole in the back to accommodate charging cords fits the Mona 2 cable and the micro-USB cable that the Tango uses, but not the magnetic bit that the Tango cable plugs into; just run the cable through the hole and, inside the box, plug it into the magnetic adapter. As for colors, the black Joyboxx has a purple slider to close it, and the purple one has a black slider. (The manufacturer's site currently offers a limited-edition, solid-black version, for the seriously color-averse. If this intrigues you, ask SheVibe if they can carry it!) All in all, this solves so many problems so elegantly that it's became an absolute essential for me, right up there with the Fascinator Throe and a good lube. I would definitely buy this again.
