Pros
Quiet, Waterproof, Easy to Use, Nice shape, Balls can give temperature play/extra sensations
The Spellbound vibrator is meant for g-spot stimulation although you could also use it for clitoral stimulation as well. The packaging for this toy DOES state that it is intended for "P" stimulation, but the tip is angled and the base is not flared. So, if you decide to explore with it, be careful and gentle. External vibrations with this in other areas would also be enjoyable.
The stainless steel balls on this toy do not really move at all, nor do they vibrate; however, they provide a little extra stimulation when inserted. You could also cool the toy down for some extra temperature play and sensations involving the balls!
This vibrator can be enjoyed solo or with partner play. The toy is also waterproof so the solo or partner play can happen (almost) anywhere your heart desires!
When my Spellbound arrived, I was really excited to try it out! I received the orange one, which I thought was really cute and different. When I took it out of the package, I did notice a very, very light smell but after a washing, I couldn't smell it anymore. However, this may not be noticed by most people, as I have a very sharp sense of smell. I did not notice any taste though.
This toy is made out of ABS Plastic with the balls being made out of stainless steel. The toy is not shiny but I found it very velvety and smooth. I ran my hand up and down the shaft to test the smoothness. I did not feel like the toy dragged across my skin and I thought the toy felt very "soft" against my palm.
I did not find that the texture added much stimulation, although the balls on the shaft gave me a slight tingly feeling when inserted. They feel great when rubbing on the inside and I found that moving the toy a bit does help stimulation with the balls. They do not move, so any chance of pinching or catching should not be a concern unless you choose to use smaller balls as replacements.
This material is compatible with water, oil and silicone lubes. It is also hypo-allergenic, as well as latex and phthalates free.
As for play, this texture is suitable for anyone - beginners or advanced!
I really like the design of the Spellbound, even if it doesn't quite hit the right spot for me. The angled head is designed to be against the g-spot (or p-spot) and stimulate it. This was not true for me with the g-spot but it may work wonderfully for someone else!
I think the size is very nice and not too much. The Spellbound is 7 1/2 inches long, with all but an inch being totally insertable. The head of the toy is about 1 1/2 inches wide and the shaft is only 1 and 1/4th inches at the widest point. There are two ridges below the balls that give a slight variation in texture. You put 2 AAA batteries in the bottom, which twists open to allow access.
In the pictures below, you can see the toy in full length and a picture of the bottom of the toy where the battery's go in.
I think the size of this toy is good for any level of user. You can use it at your own pace and still get enjoyment from it.
This toy is very obvious and not discreet. If you are traveling with it though, just make sure to take out the batteries would be a good plan to keep it from turning on accidentally!
To make the Spellbound function, you simply insert 2 AAA batteries into the base and tighten it to close. I always remove my batteries from my toys between uses but I've used this toy about 2 hours total and it's still going strong.
There are 3 levels of vibrations on this toy. You push the button once for low, twice for medium and three for the highest. The low and medium settings are nice deep vibrations but not loud at all. The highest setting is a bit noisier, but once inside you is practically unnoticeable. The vibrations themselves are throughout the whole of the toy - I actually still felt "tingly" in my hands once I was done playing on the highest setting! I found the highest setting to be the best, while the low setting didn't really do much for me.
I didn't mind the button on the bottom and really thought it was convenient. You could accidentally turn it up while playing but it's nothing a few pushes of the button couldn't fix!
This toy is waterproof as long as the o-ring is around the top of the balls to seal it. I did not use this toy in the water (I really don't use toys at all in the water at this point) but I've had no issues when it comes to cleaning the toy and getting it wet.
To clean the toy, you may use anti-bacterial soap and hot water on the plastic areas. You may also use isopropyl alcohol to wipe down the toy. You can wash the balls the same way although they are stainless steel and may be boiled as well.
You start by removing the tip of the toy, which gives you access to the rubber ring holding the balls in. You take out the balls, remembering to be careful to not lose them. Make sure you plug the area you are washing them in so they do not go down the drain. For the toy, you can wipe down all the pieces, and also get into the grooves where the balls are placed. Put it back together by putting the balls back in, then the o-ring and then replacing the tip to hold it all in place.
I store it in the packaging but you could also store it with other plastic toys or in a toy pouch.
This toy came in a clamshell package. There was no instructions but there was an insert with details on the toy. The packaging is NOT discreet at all and tells you exactly what the toy is for!
You could reuse this packaging to store the toy if you wanted to. I do use it to store mine!
Personally, I really like this toy. While it would seem difficult to clean, it really isn't and doesn't take much longer than a toy you don't need to take apart.
As for usage, I think this toy would be AWESOME for someone who doesn't need really strong vibrations. They ARE nice, but they just aren't enough for me internally. I also don't really have an easy time finding my g-spot with this toy - I think it can be a hit or miss depending on your anatomy.
I do enjoy using it internally though while using a smaller pocket rocket on the outside to stimulate myself. The two toys together are really enjoyable! So I gave it 5 stars because it's a great toy even if it's not 100% perfect for me!
Follow-up commentaryI still like it2 months after original review
I have come to love this toy more since I first used it. While the vibrations still aren't strong enough for me, I have found the toy to be easier to use over time, and it can hit my g-spot quicker than ever before. I still pair it with a toy for clitoral stimulation at the same time, but I would recommend this toy to anyone wanting g-spot play! Oh yes, and you hardly notice the extra cleaning. It's totally worth it!
