House Of Taboo is up for review today, and this site comes to us from the people over at DDF Prod. In fact, you get access to all their sites if you join here. This is their kinky site, featuring solo and hardcore action with a naughty twist. Expect to see lots of bondage, spanking, pissing, anal, fisting, machines, and more. They offer a wide variety of material, and it's all exclusive. $23 a month gets you in the door which is a pretty good price for what you're getting here.
The Pros
Fun BDSM/taboo content.
The niche aspect of the site is definitely what will draw people in here. They have such a wide variety of material that it's hard to list it all, but I gave a pretty good idea of what they have up in the intro. Just expect lots of hardcore content mixed with a taboo twist to keep it unique.
Pretty large site.
With over 620 exclusive scenes, I don't think you'll get too bored here too quickly. They have plenty to see and do, which is all the more impressive considering the type of content they offer. Kudos to them for keeping up with the updates all these years.
Quality is really nice these days.
They're a little intermixed here and there, but you can find some very nice-looking 1080p high definition videos here. For some reason, they also have a good-sized collection of 720p videos which are still good, but not quite as large of course. Most photos look great as well, even going way back towards the beginning of the site.
Other Good Stuff:
They shoot all their own material, and therefore, it's exclusive content. About the only thing I've seen them do previously is share a few scenes between their other sites, but not a ton.
The download options are usually pretty good here. There are usually three photo sizes, plus zip files. Video options vary, but there are always multiple file types, multiple quality options, and a streaming option.
They offer three new scenes per week pretty consistently here. This will definitely help them to continue to grow their already large site.
They do offer the category selection for the main browse tool, which is great to help point you in the right direction. There's also a large models index to check out, and a pretty slick advanced search setup.
The Cons
Older quality isn't quite as good.
Once you get back in the archives, or if you just get unlucky to find a newer non-HD video, the quality definitely goes down a bit. It's expected, but you definitely run into it at times, even if you're only partway through their collection.
Minor Negatives:
The model bios are a little weak here, and could definitely use more information overall, and some more personal info as well.
They offer three photo sizes, but only a single zip file. To maximize the options, I'd look for three zip files as well.
Bottom Line
Great site all around with kinky scenes, nice quality, and lots to see.
House Of Taboo is definitely pretty great all around. The content is kinky, but not so far crazy that it wouldn't appeal to most people. The quality is great these days as well, which really helps things. Plus, there's lots to see, updates come pretty often, and the options are pretty good. The only things I'd fix would be the older quality, which isn't as good, and the site design, which isn't as flashy as most we see. Otherwise, there aren't really a ton of problems here to note. More content and more updates are about all they can do, or just give the site some time to really push those numbers up and dominate the world.
