| Pros: |
Search and navigation functions are fairly good, and I like the "Add to Favorites" feature. Lots of cute models. |
| Cons: |
Not that much hardcore in relation to solo and lesbo. Seems like the updates are really from shoots that took place a few years ago. Difficult to tell which shoots are hc, solo, lesbo etc. |
| Bottom Line: |
For a big, well-established site, I was a bit disappointed. Models and shoots seem a bit dated, with the best models being ones that were hot a few years ago. For the money, I think I prefer Nubiles.net. |

BACK ON THE TRACK - what else can I say.
My original review was from March 2007 with a score of 83 - and I've been a member on and off since then.
But a lot has happend - Ups and Downs.
Today Teendreams is back with more strenght: better quality in updates, better videos, better photosets and models I've not seen anywhere else - exclusive for Teendreams or not.
The content is very huge - with some great archives for the porn- and nudelover - mostly soft.
The updates are all together more than one video and a couple of photosets a day (including no updates on weekends).
+ Nice price
+ Aproxx. 1400 video-clips
+ Vast amout of photosets (can't count them)
+ Still a better and more varied selection of models
+ Navigation and design is still improving
+ Some of the best/varied solo-videos around.
+ Fast and helpfull respons from webmaster
+ Preview for updates (exept live video-clips)
+ Zip for photosets |
| Cons: |
Unstable downloadspeed (in Europe) - using download manager.
I (mostly)get about 320-350 kb/sec - even with d-manager.
Models names - I mean there is like 25 Lisa - 20 or more Caroline ect. - confusing.
A little video-problems: no sound in a few clips, a few corrupt files, some Mp4 almost unplayable - (But webmaster seems to repair alonmg the way).
No videoclips availible in preview.
Hardcore-content is not worth joining for. |
| Bottom Line: |
I've been pretty ambivalent about the site the last half year or so (not schizophrenic, as Wittyguy mentioned - I think that's more a medical term of something completely different).
Teendreams has had it's ups and downs - but which site has not.
But after browsing the preview for some time, the updates and variation of models has improved - a lot.
Names like Aina, Mina, Adrienne and Bea - never seen those models anywhere else - Bea has only one sets by now - but maybe the finest natural tits...
And then Lisa- the latest - a rare brunette beuaty - and the sweetest videoclip, only one for now - look forward to more!!
Newer photoset improving: 2452x1635
Videos: wmv or mp4 (some older in mpg): 1280x720 wmv - size: between 200-600 Mb.
Teendreams still has Viv Thomas as bonussite - and thats a fine deal. Videos can be downloaded in parts or full - BUT only ujsing a download manager - guess the propuse here is viewing only, but...
You can also download photos - but no zips for Viv Thomas.
If I have to compare other sites it's first Nubiles - and then maybe Twistys.
Both Teendreams and Nubiles stand very strong in their archives - videos and photosets - at this moment I tend to Teendreams - but that's the problem too. Maybe like your favorite sportteams - it's up and down - and then up again.
Right now Teendreams is back at the top - to this user... |

| Pros: |
-20 dollar coupon
- lots of content
- decent movies |
| Cons: |
-Lousy Nagivation
-Cluttered galleries
-Low quality movies and pictures
-Unoriginal content |
| Bottom Line: |
I joined this website almost 9 years ago. Back then it was mostly picture zip files with pics at 800 px. Today I decided to come back because of the hype of other good reviews and the impression it left on me going thru the tour. After plucking my 20 dollars a lot has changed and stayed the same namely some of the old pics and movies that lost its quality over the years. I am rather disappointed after going thru this website. What hurts this site the most is the navigation, and how unorganize this website. The whole site feels very cluttered. Usually I start on downloading pics and movies from A to Z.
As I gone thru it there were same girls with different names, DVDs lying around, to girls in a lesbian action scene not under the gallery she originally belongs to. Another thing that hurts this site is the quality of the galleries. A majority of them are rather hazy and some of the movies are good as 640-480 to less. There are some HD quality but not much. I am being really generous in giving an 80 due to the large content but despite the quantity it sorely needs a lot of love in the quality department.
In a lot of ways teendreams reminds me of a Karup cloned website. At least it tries to be. It has got definitely has the content that can rival Karup-pc but none of the organization. I would recommend this website to first time porn surfers basically someone whose practically starting his/her porn collection. This is the place to be to collect a large database of porn. For a porn surfing like me I want something better with quality and care. Anyway to first time porn surfers there are coupons available for this website. You can check out hoes.com or rabbitreview.com but the discounts will only work for one month and it will resume its regular price.
A couple of suggestions to the webmasters reading this:
1. Organizing your website is a must I can't stress that enough.
2. Either remove your old stuff or enhanced to better picture quality especially the movies
3. Those DVDs they got to go because it doesn't feel it belongs there besides your DVD collection pales in comparison to websites that cater to DVD movies (ie videobox anyone?)
Thats about it. Thanks for reading this review. I hope this is helpful in your purchase. |

| Pros: |
- My original review expired yesterday, so here is a newly updated review to reflect the changes in Teen Dreams and it received a boost in the score from my 2007 review. One of the internet's biggest sites around.
- New servers deliver lightning fast downloads to me, US based as are the servers, regularly hits 100% of my max DL speed when using DownThemAll with Firefox
- The content over the last few years sees a raise in quality, pics top out in the 2500ish range and come zipped.
- Viv Thomas "bonus" content is equal to full access to the Viv Thomas video site and photo site as well. BL explains.
- Video quality is above average, 640-720 high end, 2000+ bitrates on last two years videos.
- Site forum is not only active, but has one of the funnest, most helpful and most knowledgeable groups of porn fans on it, outside of PU of course! Customer service is very responsive.
- Less than $20 price is icing on the cake
- Six updates per day, five days per week |
| Cons: |
- Navigation has improved, but still could be hard for some to get used to. I've noticed that now when you click on a letter in the model list, the models come up alphabetically. Used to this wasn't the case, so this isn't quite the con it once was.
- Still suffers from alias problems when naming models. Sandra Shine is listed as Judith for example. I just pick a letter or two at a time and scan through them for recognizable faces.
- Videos named the same! |
| Bottom Line: |
I have been impressed with the forward progress this site has made. Back when it seemed to be stalling in its progress, they picked up the Viv Thomas bonus content.
The Viv picture sets are not in zips, but you can download them all with DownThemAll add-on with Firefox. Also, the videos on Viv's bonus content are not as high quality as the ones you get from Viv's official video site, but they are 640 high end 750-1000 bitrate and look plenty good enough considering those come from a site that is $30 a month! His videos adds a lot of depth to this site as well. Viv has always been one of my favorites of Euro videos, hardcore, solo, girl/girl, those are all here for you to download and it comes free with Teen Dreams.
One thing I forgot to mention in the pros is the use of "guest models". This is an interesting feature that adds 25 pictures per set from other sites and lets you get a sampling of those site's content, quality and maybe even discover a new model or two.
The biggest complaint that I remember members having about TD is the speed of downloads. I've tried various download managers with the site and find that some won't work, Free Download Manager doesn't seem to work with the site, but try DownThemAll add-on for Firefox. Change the filter to download only movie and archive files, right click the page, click down them all and it will load up the videos and zip/rar files and do the work for you. Really pushes my speed limit as well, I had never seen my speed top 1,200 kb/s but it has here, 1,296 kb/s. I do limit my number of connections to 2 though.
Despite the old issues with finding models you are looking for, the site's navigation once you find the said model is really easy to work with. All the picture sets come up for the model and the movies as well, with DownThemAll, you can skip even having to click on each set to download.
Picture size is coming in at just under 2500 high end. Movies at 640-720 high end with 2000 bitrates. Pretty impressive numbers for a site that updates 30 times per week!
I want to compare it to Twistys, but I think there are a few notable differences. Like another site, Nubiles, Teen Dreams does shoot plenty of never before seen models, giving it more of an amateur feel than Twistys has. That is probably a major pro for some of you, but you all know me, I like my major glam models that I'm used to!
There is really no way for me to guess what the percentage of exclusive and non-exclusive content there is. For me, Twisty's Treat edges Teen Dreams out here. Though there is exclusive content on here, especially in the solo videos. Love the Eve Angel in the bathroom video, staring at herself in the mirror and brushing her hair obviously turns her on as much as it does me since she ends up with one foot on the sink and masturbating.
The amount of content can be overwhelming. I usually stay a member for 3 months at a time, then come back the next year. I like the changes and definitely recommend it! |

| Pros: |
+ Freakin' huge amount of content
+ Good $20 TBP monthly membership
+ 30 updates per week (6 per day, M - F)
+ Good customer interaction with model ratings, personal favorites section, set/scene comments and a forum
+ No DRM
+ Supports download managers
+ Large photos (newest at 2500x1660) and all sets have zips and slideshow option and many have no or very small watermarks
+ Newer material appears to be mostly exclusive
+ Full tour available before joining |
| Cons: |
- Search function leaves a real nasty after taste
- More of a pic site than a video site
- Model names are strange here and model info is few and far between
- Quality varies
- "Teen" concept loosely defined, lots of 21 to 25 year olds.
- Older material is mostly nonexclusive |
| Bottom Line: |
I had high hopes when I joined this baby but was only moderately entertained: sort of like dating someone who you know ain't quite right but running with it anyways just for the sex ;) This site features a lot of Euro babes with the emphasis on photography.
Photos: 1280 HC sets, 1600 lez, 6000 solo and a smattering of other categories. As mentioned the newest stuff clocks in at 1660x2500 with older stuff at 2000x1300 or 1020x715 and a few 800x600. All have zip and many have a slideshow feature. Be wary if you're joining for the HC. 75% of this is leased content added a few years ago that's on all the megasites as is some newer stuff. Most of the newer solo stuff is exclusive but, again, a lot of the stuff past a couple of years ago is not. Most sets have 100 to 200 pics; oldest sets are smaller.
Vids = 560 HC, 180 Lez, and 800 solo. You get only get a couple of vid updates a week. Newest stuff is 720x480 on WMV while older is 350x240. Stream rates were only OK. Like the pics, you've probably seen the older stuff around.
My biggest beef is with the search function. There is 9 function search engine so it looks promising. However, even when limiting yourself to 1 or 2 of options you either get a couple of results or a ton of results. The only real way to find out what's there is to use the model directory or search by lez, HC or solo categories. With this much content that spells "p-a-i-n".
The pain goes deeper when you look at the categories. They use a magazine cover to show the girl but often times it's the same used for every shoot the girl does. You don't know what the content of the shoot is unless you dig into it.
There is very little if any info on most of the models. A lot of models, even known ones, somehow get stuck with different names so it's hard to find exactly what you're looking for.
Most of the emphasis here is on the youngish gals doing photo solo sets. For the most part, they were only OK. Not much eroticism or tease factor here. Part of this is due to the fact that they get a lot of their stuff from outside sources. This factor also explains why the quality can vary from set to set. Some are great, others are poorly cropped and shot.
The girls are generally fairly attractive. Not top shelf but not off the street either. Thankfully there was not a lot of silicon here, at least in the solo content and newer HC stuff.
This site gets an 85 for sheer volume, good pic sizes and good newer vids. You also get acccess to the Vivthomas bonus site. Not as big as his "real" site but not bad. It's definitely one of the better bonus sites you can get. It loses ground on it's half ass search function, varying quality and the fact that the older stuff has been around the block a few times.
If you like solo girls and pics this is a pretty good place for the value; just plan on spending some time digging through it all. |

| Pros: |
+Great price. ($19.95 from here or you can find it for $17.95 from another site)
+Updated 2-3 times a week.
+Very helpfull members forum, where the webmaster will even reply.
+Bonus guest model section. Gives samples of other sites.
+Nice and easy navigation. By style of set, body type or even just searching for the models name.
+Good selection of solo, girl/girl & boy/girl |
| Cons: |
-Some girls are the same one you've seen from other sites but with different names.
-Images are 1333x2000 for portrait and 1999x1333 for landscape.
-Newer Videos are 704x396, older videos are 640x480.
-Security doesn't allow me to download images using DownThemAll download manager.
-Too many images per set, where 3-4 in a row look almost identical. |
| Bottom Line: |
For the price of under $20 a month, Teen Dreams is a very good site. And if it wasn't for economic reasons, I'd still be a member.
Compared to other websites, Teen Dreams is a bit behind on the quality of both the video and images. The images are good quality and decent size but don't compare to other sites that have 3000px and 4000px images. Both the new and older video are decent quality, however non are true HD or HD quality. I'd consider most videos to be near DVD quality.
One other nitpicking I didn't like was the fact that I couldn't use DownThemAll in Firefox for the images. It has a cool feature where you save the first image as "name" and then each following image would get a number behind it in order. The webmaster was quick to reply as to why, since they were recently hacked, it was a double security thing. Unfortunately there was no way around it, except don't use the download manager. Their suggestion was to just download the zips, unfortunately they normally have 100+ images per set. However there always seemed to be 3-4 in a row that looked almost identical and could have been left out. It just made it a bit more of a pain to download images, then other sites.
Overall Teen Dreams is a site worth checking out, you can't go wrong for $20. |

| Pros: |
So many Girls. There are more girls on this site than any other I've been a member of. Love the photoshoots, Love the DVDs. Love the fact that you find some hidden gems. They are there, but whilst this is great, this is one of my criticisms below. A lot of content that is different to what you see elsewhere. Pretty Girls who look and act pretty in the videos. |
| Cons: |
Pretty Girls great. But do we want Pretty Girls doing pretty video shoots and photoshoots. Of course not, what we want are Pretty Girls doing depraved things like working out how to get their bodies into positions where you know you're going to need a knob of butter to slide them out of the position afterwards, and while you've got the butter out, some of the hardcore is a little missionary. In some of the videos the girls are more rigid than the bed. A lot of repeated girls photos in the browsing make finding something you haven't seen before a bit hard work, and I guess when I started my membership I thought, hey I'm gonna need to budget for this, probably be a member for a while, but for some reason, and I think it was the fact that you kept finding the same shoots on different navigation pages/repetition seemed to make it hard work. Quality of some video was not high std but still consumed my bandwidth. |
| Bottom Line: |
I'm glad that I was a member but it felt a bit like same old same old and finding and watching repeats. Downloads were fast. Had some hits and misses. Found some gems, some mistakes - mingers. Overall though definitely a good site to use but you do feel when you are there if there's something better elsewhere and eventually I think you'll wander off. A site you will find hard to remain faithful too, even on day one. But you will still enjoy the content. |

*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.
