The Tenga Flex Silky & Rocky: Economical & Reuseable Strokers – Product Review (2025)
Feb
The Tenga Flex Silky and Flex Rocky are easily our most popular reuseable strokers under $50. These two strokers are the most intense (Rocky) and gentlest (Silky) of Tenga’s Flex stroker line, which also includes two more mid-intensity strokers: the Fizzy Green and Bubbly Blue. With an estimated 100-200 uses, the Flex is a great value. Tenga is known for its clever designs and quality materials, and I consider pretty much anything in their lineup as a safe bet.
Look and Feel
The Tenga Flex line includes 4 strokers (from most intense to most gentle): Rocky Black, Fizzy Green, Bubbly Blue, and Silky White. These all come in clamshell packaging with a sample packet of Tenga lubricant and the user manual.
With the Tenga Flex strokers, a flexible spiraled casing holds a supple, fleshy elastomer inner sleeve, sealed with a cap that doubles as a drying stand and a plunger used to reinsert the sleeve after cleaning. Depending on the Flex you choose, the inner sleeve will feature different textures designed to have varying intensities. The spiral outer casing is squeezable, and the elastomer sleeve is super soft and supple. There is a small air hole on the end of the outer casing that can be closed to create a bit of suction while stroking.
Included Documentation
The user manual includes instructions on how to use, wash, and store the Tenga Flex stroker. The sleeve can come completely out of the casing for cleaning, and the plunger/stand is used to both dry the sleeve after use and push it back inside the casing for later use.
If a stroker can be elegant, this is it – hah. The plunger cap is pretty clever. You can turn the inner sleeve inside out for cleaning and drying.
My Experience Using the Tenga Flex Silky & Flex Rocky
I’m on the girthier side, and while all the Flex strokers advertise internal dimensions of 2″ wide and 6.1″ in length, I found the Rocky to be too tight for me. (I’m about 2″ in girth.) The Tenga Flex Silky (white) was quite comfortable for me, though.
When plunging inside, you can see the channels on the outer casing kind of flex (heh, hence the name), which is visually interesting. You can create a bit of suction by holding a finger on the air hole on the end of the Flex. The amount of suction created by this effect is comparable to that of the Tenga Flip Zero Gravity.
You learn this pretty quickly during experimentation with the Flex, but if you’re on the girthier side, you may want to be careful with creating suction because, of course, this creates a vacuum that makes the insertable space feel smaller and more restrictive.
During use, you should try squeezing the ribbed outer casing where you want more pressure. The ribbing also helps you grip the stroker, even if you have a little lube on your hands. (I recommend using it with water-based lube.)
Cleaning is a breeze; just pull the sleeve out of the outer casing and rinse the inner chamber with water and a mild soap. The outer casing doesn’t really get anything on it unless you get smears of lube on it; you can mainly focus on cleaning the sleeve.
You can gently invert the sleeve so that it’s inside out and slide it over the plunger/stand for drying (see instructions). After an hour or two of drying, you may need to turn it right side out and allow a little more time for the outside of the sleeve to dry before putting it back in its casing. Ensure the sleeve is totally dry before putting it away because moisture can encourage mold and bacterial growth.
Final Thoughts
With a price point well under $50, the Tenga Flex stroker is an amazing value if you clean and store it properly. It’s a great first stroker or one to try if you’re interested in Tenga products but not ready to invest in pricier strokers like the Tenga Flip Zero Gravity or Tenga Flip Zero (Vibrating).
