Pros
+ It's site review no. 200 today here at Mike's Porn Site Review so I figured I better pick something good for the occasion, and I think it's safe to say that the new (officially launched less than two months ago, but with content dates going back to late December) but already fairly large site Teen Models easily qualifies as, and in fact far surpasses merely good.
Teen Models takes a route quite similar to several of my other favourite sites with beautiful Czech, Hungarian, Russian, Romanian and a couple of US girls in solo and lesbian videos and photosets.
Yes, the approach may be so similar that you could perhaps rightfully ask why you should choose Teen Models over some of the other older and larger Eurobabe sites, but as the content at Teen Models is exclusive to this site, I've certainly enjoyed being able to add a bunch of extra content with several of my favourite models to my permanent porn collection, including videos and photosets with several girls that are still so relatively new to the adult business that my collections are still far from well stocked, so I'll jump at everything new with them (and in this case "jumping at everything new" fortunately doesn't mean settling for bland, low quality scenes. Far from it).
+ The girls at Teen Models include popular Eurobabes like Eve Angel, Eufrat, Zara, Angelika Black, Blue Angel, Lucy Belle, Madison Parker, Cherry Jul, Ariel, Anita Pearl and several others (many of them at least a couple of years, or five, past their teens, but more about this issue in the cons below), plus quite a few beautiful girls I haven't paid much notice to (or have just started to recently as with Lola or Sasha), or in some cases can't recall seeing at all before.
+ Also taking a cue from some of the other Eurobabe sites, some of the solo and lesbian scenes go a little further than just using a few fingers, tongues and an assortment of toys, you will also see fisting here and there (some girls only manage partial fisting though), including anal fisting in a few cases.
Along the same lines I had never really expected I would see the gorgeous Eufrat with the business end of a baseball bat buried in her pussy (shame there's currently no video to go with that photoset).
Overall much of the content is closer in style to eg. Club Sandy and ALS Scan (the latter not solely using Eastern European models though) than the typically softer style of eg. Sapphic Erotica and the lesbian and solo content at Viv Thomas Video.
+ 1080p, 5000 kbit and 720p, 2000 kbit HD downloads, plus lower options, including formats for iPhone/iPod and PSP.
Teen Models also has the sharpest streaming Flash option I've ever seen on any site. Other sites with HD downloads always have the streaming options in significantly lowered quality (one of those is also availale here if you don't have the bandwidth for the highest option), but the high definition Flash option here is extremely sharp, and if you use the Flash player full screen option it actually comes pretty close in quality to the 720p download version.
+ Very high quality and resolution on the photosets as well, the large 3000x2000 pixel version in particular of course. Photosets are of course available in zip files.
+ Related to those HD downloads and streams, I virtually never mention server speeds in reviews as, even if you have a fast connection, a number of factors can make download speeds quite different for different people or at different times of the day.
Teen Models seems to be "bragging" a bit about their fast servers though, so I figured I would make an exception and make a note of my experience here, and it's been very positive. I'm on a 50 Mbit line, which means a theoretical max download speed of 6 Megabyte per second, but I've only ever seen that from a handful of (non-adult) sites in the few months I've had that connection speed.
Teen Models delivered a very impressive 2-3 MB/s most of the time though (per download process, with several going I actually maxed out my line), which is something I don't often see on adult sites where 0.5-1 MB/s (and sometimes lower) seems far more common. In fact the only other porn sites I'm usually consistenly getting similar or even faster speeds from than Teen Models are Club Sandy and a number of the other 21Sextury network sites.
+ Content updates are coming fast with a new photoset every day and three videos a week.
+ Great and very modern site design, although unless I entirely overlooked something there were no options to sort the content by niche (masturbation/lesbian). Simply typing eg. lesbian in the search field located at the top of all pages seemed to produce fairly accurate results though, and the same applied when I tried eg. fisting and dildo, so I'm giving the Teen Models a 10/10 score in navigation and design, rather than the 9/10 I first had my mind set on.
Features also include rating, bookmarking and commenting option.
+ I regularly ignore 3rd party bonus content, but in this case it includes more than 1,800 hardcore videos (many with the popular pornstars you can also find at eg. the large DVD download sites) available as 720p HD downloads (rather than just lower quality video feeds as is often the case with 3rd party content).
It's nearly all very different from the exclusive Eurobabe content on the main Teen Models site, but it's definitely a very nice bonus if you also happen to appreciate a healthy dose of more general porn entertainment in a variety of niches (including the two Teen Model niches lesbian and masturbation, and there are actually quite a number of really hot bonus scenes in those two).
As per usual I have not factored this bonus content into the content volume score though (and the only reason it's getting a fairly low 14/20 here is because some of the sites I'm comparing it against are downright huge).
Cons
- As with so many other teen sites, most of the models here are actually in their early twenties rather than 18 or 19, and someone like Eve Angel is 26 these days (and the content on Teen Models appears to be fairly recent and most certainly not several years old).
In terms of making a great site with hot models and entertaining content I'm personally all for going with the more or less experienced and popular babes rather than trying to find those elusive models who are, for a very brief time, geniune teens who hopefully both look great and know how to put on a good show in front of the camera (most of the Eastern European babes I count among my favourites, including the aforementioned Eve Angel, are in my opinion generally much more of a joy to watch these days than they were in their first couple of years, where they were typically just a bit awkward and inexperienced though certainly showing potential)
But for those of you who really do prefer those true, fresh faced 18 and 19 year old girls, well, I guess you'll usually just have to settle for them being in the minority among the twentysomethings on most "teen" sites, including this one.
