| Pros: |
- Decent amount of content around 5,606 videos (although most girl-girl and boy-girl scenes have three videos each) around 1,427 models and daily updates.
- Exclusive models
- More recent videos are available in multiple formats up to 1280x720
- All shoots have images available as ziped files, they also have a best of, which highlight the best photos in a nice gallery.
- All models look very natural, little make-up many are not shaved, just trimmed almost all look very next door girl
- The sex looks very natural, there are some awkward pauses, no insane penetration angles, the blowjobs look realistic.
- Overall the site has a fun, softcore feel with some close-ups of vaginas and blowjobs.
- A lot of the scenes have a before and after where they interview the models and the girls seem pretty relaxed (although there are some serious language barriers at times)
-In a lot of scenes the orgasms are or look real.
- Good download speeds
- Decent forum with many members |
| Cons: |
- Almost all of the videos have an old school feel to them, with highlights overblown and colors a bit faded. Even the highest resolutions feel a bit grainy.
- A lot of videos are broken up into various parts. Also the before and after interviews could have easily been lumped with the actual scene.
- Scenes tend to have a slow intro (I remember one video where the boy texts the guy for 3 minutes)
- The site's navigation is decent but takes some getting used to. There are videos labeled "intimate moments" which are basically solo masturbation shots, but there are also "solo shots" and "after dark" shots and when I say shot I don't mean a video I mean a collection of videos... trust me it makes sense but it takes some getting used to
- The girls are very natural looking and some could use a bit more make-up. I was expecting the same kind of models Backroomcastingcouch or Exploitedcollegegirls has, but the girls here seemed less attractive (IMO) |
| Bottom Line: |
Man, this site is something else. I've been a member of most major porn sites over the years and have seen many styles and combinations of content, but Abbywinters stands out as a unique product. If I had to compare it to anything else I'd say it's close to suicide girls in their focus on fun, softcore stuff and community (at least that's how suicide girls used to be back when I joined it a few year ago)
The great selling point of the site are the exclusive, natural looking models and the realistic settings and action. The site claims that all scenes are shot in the girls homes with their outfits and only (supposedly) with their boyfriends and/or girlfriends. To cement this claim there are before and after sex interviews where the girls explain what felt good and what they were nervous/ excited about, where they met the boyfriend, how often they have sex in private and so on.
Aside from scenes with boy-girl, girl-girl sex the site has "Intimate moments" scenes where supposedly the girls are alone with the camera and can be themselves as well as solo shots where the director interviews them a bit before the action. They also have a handful of "after dark" scenes where the girls are supposed to be dressed in nicer clothes and be more romantic. I hope they get more of these as some of the outfits were very nice, but for right now they only have a dozen or so.
Overall the site has a decent premise, unique content and a strong community of followers (and a great forum btw). If you like their style and the girls this place will be a great find and the 3 month membership a steal. However the scenes are far from perfect and you could easily end up disliking the site for how different it feels.
The navigation is efficient, but somewhat different from other porn sites and can get a bit confusing at first. The homepage shows the updates, but the preview images are not animated. The easiest way to browse is by looking at shoots and then either video shoots or image shoots (this way you get animated previews), but you can't easily view all models that video or only images and there is no way to search for top rated models or Russian models. Not to mention that older videos tend to be split into 10 parts and even more recent ones often have 2 parts.
Speaking of videos, I have to say that the girls look great in photos but in many of the videos they end up looking average, even a bit disappointing. I suspect that in order to maintain the vibe of the site everything is filmed with minimal equipment and it shows. Overexposed shots, some blurry close-ups, the sound of the camera taking photos in the background. It all contributes to make the site feel unprofessional. Don't even ask me how many scenes are shot in an extremely bright room with perfectly clean white walls or how overexposed reds look in half the scenes. Overall for me the technical quality was a huge disappointment.
The content itself is decent with a lot of the girls really into it and believable orgasms
However it's a bit slow paced for my taste. All sex scenes take several minutes before anyone gets naked. I personally don't see the need for a little make believe story (oh I'm a photographer, get naked. Oh we're watching tv, get naked) when there is a before interview where the girls say they are excited to have sex (especially when some scenes are only 25 minutes long).
Speaking of the interviews. Some have captions to translate the interview and those are great, the British accents on some girls are even better, but the broken English most girls have coupled with giggling every two seconds when they don't understand the question can get frustrating and took me out of the mood.
At the end of the day I see the appeal of Abby Winters, but I don't think I saved more than a handful of videos. The image sets are very good, but the technical quality and the poor set-up make this feel like old, old Pierre Woodman casting videos. I don't regret joining the site but it's not my cup of tea, I'll stick with Nubiles, which has a similar feel but much better navigation and quality videos. |

| Pros: |
Navigation Is excellent
Massive collection all exclusive
- 99% of the girls are only seen on this site.
- All amatuer girls.
- Real scenes no made up scenes.
- Download speeds are fantasic with no download limits
- Hardly any Boy/girl (this is a good thing)
- Outstanding search engine
- Save to hard drive with no dmr (Video Protection)
(I FORGOT THE BUSH)I love bush and they have lots of it! |
| Cons: |
- The girls are very much a persons taste! and some people will find them unattractive.
- They they need to have more "Girl Cum tasteing" this is a major nich that is missing from porn and is a Major turn on for alot of people |
| Bottom Line: |
Keep up the role play at the start if not make it longer.
Make the scenes more gritty. More passion and intesity and a little bit dirty. Nothing hotter then two sweaty lesbians.
Find better looking models (the girls are nice people just not sexy)
Add more Girl + Girl scenes
Add more Girl Cum tasteing
Fix that Ill change to 100% |

| Pros: |
It's hard to discuss Abby Winters in terms of porn sites because this is simply not the usual porn site. There is a reason it has remained one of the top rated sites of all time for the last decade. It ranges from the dainty petting softcore stuff you expect from a couple of bi-curious girls to penetration bordering on XXX. You are never going to see anything too hard or edgy here, and that's what most people like about this site. It is a sort of sweet, touching, beautiful, natural type of porn that's hard to even want to call it "porn."
The video quality here is good and as you get into the more recent stuff a lot of it is HD. I like their system for selection video quality. You just click one of four boxes next to a video, and the next time that's where it will default to, or the closest lower setting in the case of older videos. They tend to clip them, but there are usually no more than three. Navigation is also very well cross listed with keywords, so searching is a breeze. |
| Cons: |
So, here's the only downside to Abby Winters, and it is a personal issue that you may not be as bothered by, but the whole premise of the natural girl having real, natural sex is great, and it is beautiful and tender. But, it also leaves no room for originality or individuality. Simply put, it all kind of starts to look the same after awhile. You'll find your favs, like Chloe B, and you will download everything she has and love it, and you'll do the same for the next ten girls. But after a few months I found myself just checking in occasionally, and when I did I downloaded one or two things here and there and before long I was maybe getting a couple of videos a week from them. Couldn't really justify the price. It's hard to stay a member at sites like this for long. |
| Bottom Line: |
Look, if you have never had a membership to Abby Winters it is certainly worth a month. They offer a pretty good deal for three months, and I think it's worth a few months of being able to download stuff from them. If you're like me you will probably tire of them, or you will basically have gotten all you really need from their site to keep you happy in the future. Either way, this site deserves support. They are a unique and enlightened businesswomen, and they are offering a quality product. It's just they are dedicated to pretty much one or two things, lesbian sex and masturbation, so it's hard for them to really offer a wide range of porn. This is true of many sites. One speaks volumes is the fact that Abby Winters has been around for so long and has been recognized by so many as one of the industry's best. In many ways they have sort of become the PLAYBOY of the internet. |

| Pros: |
- Beautifull women
- Girls who seem to enyoy themselfs
- No anoying music
- No scripts, it looks like the girls are just doing what they want to do |
| Cons: |
- The price of the site, but I have to say it's worth the money
- You have to know how to find the older movies |
| Bottom Line: |
Can you improve top quality. I don't know, I love the girls, I love the things they do, but most
of all I love the fun they have doing it...For me this is the standard for others sites, but haven't seen anyone coming close. For me this is the site if you are a lesbian sex lover. |

| Pros: |
I'm very impressed with AW's Unique content and natural interaction between attractive girls who seem to genuinely enjoy the mostly unscripted sex they engage in. The models are generally enthusiastic, and vary widely in their body-types and ethnicity. Video and photos are available in high-quality (assuming you have broadband) and are often free of many annoying porn conventions. I think the content is generally very compelling. |
| Cons: |
Partly because there are only a few low-res. hetero interactions on-site, there is a sense of almost oppressive lesbian exclusivity which seems to pervade some of the shoots. Strap-ons (a personal favorite) are nowhere to be found, presumably because their use emulates male-female sex.
But by far the most disappointing aspect of the site is the Abbywinters automatic re-billing policy which seems deliberately structured to enhance opportunities to overcharge subscribers who fail to realize they must actively un-subscribe. Casual credit card statement scanners had best make a note of this scheme (which I realize is not unique to AW) and be sure to confirm that Abby's hand is not in their pockets after their first month is finished. AW's billing division (GMBill) claims to be unable to access user's activity history on-site which they assert frees them from any requirement to review subscriber activity (or inactivity). |
| Bottom Line: |
I realize that porn purveyors are not guided by the "customer is always right" strictures that are the policy of main street merchants, but Abbywinters seems to have no compunctions about customer exploitation and will apparently gleefully take advantage of any subscriber accounting negligence, perhaps with the assumption that porn-site patrons will be reluctant to dispute billings and expose their patronage. So, be warned, and enter into any contract with AW understanding that their business model does not include a policy promoting complete customer satisfaction or strictly ethical give-and-take.
Since I like their content, I'm sorry they aren't taking the long view and cultivating good consumer relations which I believe would actually enhance their bottom line. |

08-21-11 04:03pm (Update History)
Reason: Split movies in g/g section plus .. see below!
|
| Pros: |
1384 beautiful, natural models.
Latest movies are available in Lo, Regular, High and HD. High is very good at 1024x576p while HD is at 1280x720p and also very nice and crisp.
Pictures are available in two sizes, 3888x2592px and 1470x980px, zipped. The sets are huge but for those who think less is more there are also “the best of” reduced sets available of the same models.
I love the fact that so many pictures and videos are heavily tagged, it really encourages one to browse and I've come across some incredible material via the tag method already.
Homepage layout is a joy, even giving one a preview of what's to come for the whole month ahead complete with samples.
Download Manager friendly, plus ample bandwidth given to the user. I downloaded 5 videos at a time and was still able to move freely around the site and even watch smooth streaming while downloading.
Download speed for me was over my max at 2.3 MB/s, either for one file or for the five combined. |
| Cons: |
I am looking hard for one! Oh, yes, b/g content .. I hate it. Will be a plus for others so will not count against the site.. In any case there is not THAT much of it, so I'll find it easy to avoid it.
I'm also not particularly keen about the “rump” shots found in many of the picture sets. I would prefer to see more of the model than just a picture of hip down to top of upper thighs.
When considering the first 100 I ever gave a site please be kind and remember that TBP states that site "could do little to improve" and I agree with that wholeheartedly. |
| Bottom Line: |
I know that a lot of us were discontent and disappointed a while ago because many movies took too long to get to the point, but I don't find this to be the case this time around.
All the videos I have looked at so far take me back to my first subscription, and to the awe and delight I felt in connection with this site. Except that this time around the videos are in one piece and in HD and the picture sets are awesome in their Ultra High Resolution size.
AW appear to keep improving with age and don't look (judging by the updates) as if they have any intention of slowing down in the foreseeable future.
The girls look and act so incredibly natural and appear to enjoy themselves so much that I am almost reluctant to describe this site as a porn site even though it was given an award by AVN.
It was my favorite site then and is in danger of quickly becoming so again.
What happened to my love of older women and fine lingerie, you may ask?
Well, this site is so enchanting that I don't find it hard at all to forgive them the lack of the above mentioned, and give AW the highest mark I've ever given anyone.
No glamour, no excessive make up, no porn star mannerisms here, just young women of all stripes and sizes who are highly erotic to me because of the fact that everything they do seems so unstaged and natural.
If the discount through TBP is still valid I would strongly recommend the “three pack” of Abby Winters to all of our users who prefer wholesome and natural.
August 21, 2011: Have reduced my score of 100 by five points because,
a) as I found out in the meantime, not all movies are in one part. In the girl-girl section they are still as a rule in four parts: "before, part 1, part 2, after." I would like for at least the main action to be in one part only. Before and after I can do without.
b) this past week's updates were exceptionally bad, in MY eyes I agree, but that's the only way I can judge a site.
Because of these two factors I have reduced my score slightly from 100 to 95. |

| Pros: |
-Exclusive girl next door models.
-So much content, even with the solo package.
-Nice resolution pics.
-Updated weekly
-potential for re-bill discount. |
| Cons: |
-Package sales
-Clean looking but not navigation friendly
-Tag system is great but really takes away from simplicity
-Photographer lacks style at some points, or dare i say skill..... |
| Bottom Line: |
When i first signed into Abby Winters i felt like i was at a busy air port...
It is cleanly laid out and the colors used are nice on the eyes but i didn't like how they have the model sets laid out, even when i got used to it.
The tag system is great, but can kill simplicity, especially if you want something simple like big boobs, it gets way to in depth. Or i just get nice nipples... am i using it wrong ?
Luckily for me I'm not into movies that much or any type of girl on girl scenes so the "packages" they sell didn't appeal to me. This can get pricey, the packages are as follows.
First is the Solo package - 25 bucks gets you all girls sets and two new "solo" models a week.
Second package is Girl-Girl:
1 new Girl-Girl video
1 new Girl-Girl image set
Fun, Make-out, and Hardcore content
That one will run you 30 bucks.
The third package is Intimate Moments which you will get
2 one-girl Masturbation videos
2 two-girl Masturbation videos
It is the same price as The solo package.
And the final 4th package is the fully loaded of the erotica industry 39 bucks a month and you get
7 new videos in total
6 new image sets in total
2 new Solo models
2 returning Solo models
1 new Girl-Girl video
1 new Girl-Girl image set
Fun, Make-out, and Hardcore content
2 one-girl Masturbation videos
2 two-girl Masturbation videos
or get this... you can customize your 4th package with specific site options.
why does it feel like I'm subscribing to a new car ?
Now i know it seems like i already have a dislike on for this site but to be truthful i did enjoy it, i also recommend it ! but i wasn't impressed as much as others.
Abby has some nice resolutions, that means when you click on a pic you know you are going to see some nice detail . Even if you get the solo package like i did you get a TON of content to go through, so much you might need more then a month for sure if you are going to be browsing and taking your time.
Every page has an attractive amateur girl, the definition of the girl next door type, and you will find with so much content you wont get bored. A bit overwhelmed but not bored. You also get a discount option of 4.36 if you select package 4, customized. Which would technically be package 5 ? oh man... there are more package options on this site then a transsexual site search option.
I fail to see the hype of this site. Where as it is a great site i don't think it is a Titan when it comes to this type. It seems it climbed to the top by just staying around on the net for a long time accumulating sets.
To be fair i subscribed to the solo package which is just a fraction of the site (which was all i needed really) so some might view this as not accurate because i didn't experience the full site.
But be sure i would probably have the same type of review even if i was treated to the customized package 4 which includes.... hah I'm wont even get into it.
I was going to sign up for girls out west because of their very attractive upskirt option but i kept reading reviews on how the models at Abby were better and how amazing it was. I think i will try their next.
Bottom line: If you like amateur girls, next door type looks, and just natural women i will give you a friendly shove in the direction of this site, because you need to be there. But please, don't soak up the hype that surrounds this site.
I see people rate this site as 100, fully understandable if it is your thing but i cant rate it that high for myself. |

*Newbie reviews and ratings don't count toward a site's overall score/rank until the user reaches the Rookie status level (5 points). This rule is needed to help prevent fake (or heavily biased) profiles and reviews.
