The name Dream Stash doesn't really bring up any kind of emotions or feelings of what might be at the site. Is it a stash of dream chicks perhaps? Is it a place to stash your dreams so that the dude running the site can cash in on them? A quick view around their tour doesn't reveal much either. It looks much like a typical, plain porn site in my opinion. There's no real personality from the get go grabbing your attention.
Once inside, it's more of the same. The thing that did jump out at me was the consistency of the photos and videos, which leads me to believe these are all exclusive sets. The member's splash page (which doubles as the updates page) is a little confusing, with the main part being the latest updates in chronological order. Then on the left they list the latest photosets (which overlap with the main updates), and on the right they list the latest videos. So you're seeing a lot of updates, but they're all basically from the same few sets.
The models page is where I went first, and here you get a simple way to browse the site. Pick a chick you like, and you're on your way. As of today, there are 33 models inside, which isn't a ton, but it'll have to do. As you browse around through here, things become a little more clear as to what's going on. Apparently the site is run by a dude, who photographs models from all around Europe. He gives a brief bio on the girl, and some thoughts on the experience. Each girl has exactly two photosets, and two videos. Of the two photosets, one is always softcore, and the other is hardcore (always! The same goes for the video sets). Ok, once in a while there's an extra set here or there, but it's a rarity!
Besides the mechanical nature of the site, I like what I see. The site is very simple to navigate, and is designed pretty well (although slightly plain). There's no clutter to get in the way, and it's obvious what you're going to be looking at. The photo galleries are just as simple, with only 12 (larger than normal) thumbs on each page. Browsing around the galleries, I noticed the server was a little slow sometimes, but that could be a very temporary problem.
The pictures themselves are good. Each one is around 933x700, and generally look. The hardcore scenes are mostly shot from the first-person point of view, of which the only problem is stagnant photos at times. The photos generally look like better than usual amateur stuff, if that explains anything to you. They also have that European look to them, so be aware if you are/n't into that sort of thing. The pictures are pretty crisp, and usually well lit. I didn't see anything overly fantastic, but there's nothing wrong with them at all.
The videos look pretty good as well, maybe even better than the photos. Each one is broken up into clips, and also have the full video available to download. All clips have both a Windows Media version, and a DIVX version. The Windows Media looks pretty good, at 320x240 and almost 500kbps. The DIVX versions look even better, if you can wait for the download! With both the softcore and hardcore videos, pretty much anything standard you want is here. The only real problem I had is with the more quiet chicks (of which somehow I found quite a few of), the video would tend to drag on a bit at times. But overall, this is pretty high quality Euro sex type stuff. If you're into it, I haven't seen it done better too many places.
That's about it! Photos and videos is what they do here, and they don't need to do much more. The site seems pretty new, with the low number of models available. At $25, I think it'll be worth it later once they have more built up. For now, updates come pretty often, at least a few times a week, so that should help the site grow. There's not much more I can complain about! The content may or may not be to your liking, because of the European style of it, but it is all exclusive which helps a lot. Hopefully on the re-review I can give it a higher score, since it should warrant the price tag later on.
