Second time's a... well, it's alright
Great toy, though unlike the rating I'd hardly consider it waterproof in any sense. Keep it dry (inside and around the edge) and you'll do just fine.

Pros
Sensational vibrations, which make it a perfect plug to use during intercourse
Cons
Poorly sealing base
First of all, this was the second time we'd ordered the 10-function Risque. The first arrival was initially great. In fact, it was a great experience! When it arrived, it seemed a little larger than the photos, but the fact that it vibrates and is covered in a soft, silicone-like cover, made this look like a fun time for the ass! It's very basic, with just a few buttons built into the cover. However, the cover is the biggest flaw this toy has. Getting the cover off to insert the batteries isn't too bad, but getting the cover to reseal properly was a huge pain. That process probably took several minutes by itself! Unfortunately, we found out later on that it wasn't closed perfectly, and since we were using it in the shower, enough water got inside to kill it. So, with only a single use, our experience was somewhat limited. Thankfully, Eden has fantastic customer service, and after a slight delay on my part in sending it back, they received it. A few weeks later when I followed up, they just issued a refund and I was forced to order another. The replacement wasn't much better. The overall design is of the Risque is fantastic (we'll soon compare it to the PicoBong version, and some others), but the seal is mediocre.
Inserting the toy was slow and steady. It's flared just wide enough to require a nice and loose ass (obtained through a little foreplay, in our case, using a couple fingers and plenty of lube). The tip is perfectly rounded to start its way in, and then go nice and easy until it gets all the way in. We enjoy anal play, but we are far from "advanced" anal players, so typically our toys are under 2" in diameter. The flare holds the vibe in place perfectly, keeping the vibrator right where you want it. Once it's in, the button is presented front and center on your asshole. The single button does exactly what you'd expect - hold to turn on, press repeatedly to cycle through the vibration patterns, and then hold to power off. It's pretty simple to use, which is great since it allows you to get to what you are after quickly. The vibrations the plug generates are pretty decent. I wouldn't compare it with any of the other toys we use, and when you add in the silicone-like skin, it's not as strong as we'd like, but it does the job. What we enjoyed the most was the incredible feeling inside the ass, as well as the feeling that transfers through the wall of the anus and envelops his dick during sex. It was definitely a great feeling!
Removing it was slightly more of a task than inserting (probably because of the buildup to using it), but again, slow and easy and it went fine. Cleanup, thanks to the material, is pretty quick and easy. There aren't any seams on the plug, but the cover has a fine seam around the entire base. This could be a tough spot to clean (or in our case, a tough place to keep closed and thus watertight). Because of the poor sealing design, we were really disappointed in this toy. It feels and vibrates great, but the design is lacking.

Follow-up commentary
2 months after original review
The failure of the gasket makes it less than waterproof. This isn't an issue if you don't use it around water, but use any lube or water and it has to be cleaned and dried immediately after use. This is frustrating because I love the design. Our newest test is with a Picobong toy, so we'll see. So far, it's far less susceptible to water.
