Ten Things You Want to Know about TENGA
- ‘TENGA’ is a not a fictitious name. According to Wikipedia, ‘Tenga’ is the name of a currency that was previously used in Uzbekistan (Central Asia), Bukhara (until 1920’s), Khwarazm (till 1873), and Kokand (until 1876).
- TENGA founder and inventor was a former car mechanic called Mr. Matsumoto. We may wonder how he first came up with the idea for the Tenga cups, but in any case, we are glad he did.
- Almost all the TENGA products are made in Japan by a company with the same name. To ensure a consistent high quality, TENGA maintains tight control over how the products are made / assembled as they probably wouldnt want their invention to be copied or risk harm to any consumers as a result of using counterfeit products. Good move!
- TENGA onacups are the company’s flagship products. They come in 5 designs to mimic different sexual positions and preferences: Deep Throat, Soft Tube, Rolling Head, Double Hole, and Air Cushion. Subsequently, the company produced variations of these cups and introduced them as the “Black and White” editions to cater to guys who wants more intense stimulations or a softer, more gentle sensations, and also the larger cup sizes (8 inches) called the TENGA Ultra Size (U.S.) - US Deep Throat and US Soft Tube - to cater to men with bigger genitals.
- TENGA main color schemes are Red, White, Grey, and Black. Subsequently they had to include other colors due to the introduction of EGG (the onacap masturbators) which comes in 6 designs: Wavy, Clicker, Spider, Twister, Silky, Stepper.
- As at to-date, TENGA has at least 25 products in 5 main product lines. The latest being the Egg Lotion and the Hole Warmer.
- TENGA is a strong contender to another well established sex toy called the “Fleshlight”, and is believed to have overtaken this competitor shortly within 8 months after TENGA FLIP HOLE was introduced.
- The oldest user of TENGA is a Middle-eastern man who turned 96 on November, 2009. For obvious we dont want to mention the age of the youngest user.
- TENGA Rolling Head cup is the most popular cup for men with a condition called Peyronie’s disease (which causes the penis to be bent at a steep angle). Nonetheless, for guys with normal penis, the cup’s ability to be turned different angles provides sensations that cannot be found in other cups. And this cup is one of the top sellers in 2008!
- The top 10 Tenga best-sellers to-date are: Deep Throat (Red), Deep Throat (Black), Air Cushion (Red), Tenga Flip Hole, Tenga Eggs (Variety Pack which includes Season 1 and Season 2), Black Flip Hole, Rolling Head, Hole Lotion (Real), soft Tube, Double Hole.
