Hot Octopuss Wins ‘Male Sex Toy of the Year’ at 2015 XBIZ Awards

LONDON — Award-winning U.K.-based intimacy products innovator Hot Octopuss’ PULSE II has won the 2015 XBIZ Award for “Male Sex Toy of the Year.”

The Awards, hosted by adult film superstar James Deen, were held inside a cutting-edge special events venue in downtown Los Angeles last week.

“We’re so humbled to have been recognized by our industry colleagues at XBIZ,” PULSE co-creator and Hot Octopuss CEO Adam Lewis says. “It’s amazing to receive such recognition from the U.S. market. PULSE II was created as the direct result of reviews, suggestions, and responses from our industry peers and critics, as well as users of PULSE. We’re very proud of our products, and absolutely honored with this award.”

“With our focus on technology, lifestyle and design, we wanted to bring a product to the market that was not only acceptable, but also aspirational, and it represents a quantum shift for male sex toys,” Lewis adds. “Thank you, everyone — this really has been a spectacular year for Hot Octopuss, and this award proves our idea to bring luxury to the male sex toy market has been something the industry embraces wholeheartedly. Thank you, XBIZ, from everyone here at Hot Octopuss!”
