Dear Christina,

Our playtesters are not professional models... Well, some of them might do some modeling professionally, but more importantly they are all real swingers with profiles on Kasidie. In fact some of them may look familiar, such as our current playtester for the OhMiBod, Melissa. She, along with her husband Zalo, were our Couple of the Month for May 2008. A lot of the swingers who shoot with us for one reason, have so much fun that they are always looking to get in front of our cameras again.

While one or two photos in each playtest batch might be posed in order to properly show the product, the majority of them are not. We ask our playtesters to genuinely test the products, have fun and give us their honest feedback afterwards. Any smiles, sweat or "o-faces" are the real deal. Our photographers just snap away while it happens. We are trying to give our readers an honest evaluation of each product, not just produce eyecandy.

Some of our products are just interesting things we stumble across on the internet or in stores, like Sports Sheets. Some are products that friends or readers have raved to us about, like the Hitachi Wand and Wahl. Others are products that are actually sent to us from the creators asking us to playtest them, like the Sexercise Ball. If your friends have a product that they'd like to see us playtest, just have them email us at labs@kasidie.com and tell us about it. We (and our playtesters) are always on the lookout for fun new products for Kasidie Labs.

Thanks for Reading!
