The Ass-Berries Raspberry is a discreet anal vibrator. Looking like a Raspberry, no one would ever expect this little gal to go anywhere near your bum hole - but that's where they're wrong.

This toy is best suited for intermediate/advanced anal toy users. Although it is small, the size is still a little big for taking someone's anal virginity. And let's not forget... This toy isn't flared enough for a first time user. They may push it in too far on accident, etc. Someone who knows anal toys well will have much more SAFE fun with this amazing little assberry!

A wonderful thing about the Ass-Berry Raspberry is that it is made from Rocks-Off Ltd.'s very own material (similar to silicone) called IntraMed. IntraMed is a specially formulated thermoplastic that is medical grade, non-porous, odorless, phthalate-free, hypo-allergenic, easy to clean, etc. The only difference is that IntraMed is fully reprocess-able/recyclable. This gives you all the basic safety features of Silicone, all the while making IntraMed an environmentally friendly alternative material. This material has been tested to the highest standard and are CE and ROHS certified.

To the touch, it feels exactly like Silicone - to the "T". A smooth feeling with no drag, and gets slippery with a good lubricant. Take note: You can only use silicone and water-based lubricants with IntraMed. IntraMed is NOT compatible with oil-based lubricants.

The design is absolutely ingenious. Looks like a raspberry but feels like pure bliss! The shape and design of a raspberry is perfect for an anal plug vibrator because of the bumps that add texture and increase the sensations of the vibrations.

The size is perfect for me. Although I am used to larger anal toys, it still satisfied me. The Ass-Berries Raspberry didn't pop out, slip out, etc. and stayed in place throughout play. I did feel that this toy should have been flared a bit more for users that aren't so... acquainted?... with their asses. I know for a fact that if this was my first anal toy I may have pushed it in too far and I would have had a horrifying trip to the ER. So if you are a beginner, I'm not saying don't buy this toy. But you might want to save it for later. Try some other plugs and toys out first so you know your ass better.

Travel is going to be extremely easy for this toy. It's small enough to fit into the pocket of your purse, or even in the pocket of your jeans. That is a no-brainer. Wherever you plan to go, your ass-berry will follow you!

The Ass-Berries Raspberry is discreet only because of the shape. If someone were to accidentally (or intentionally) hit the button on the end of the bullet, they will think one of two things.

1. Oh cool! It vibrates. Now what the hell is it? Maybe a back massager?

2. Wow. It's a vibrator.

So, if you plan to leave this little berry out on your dresser, it would be in your best interest to remove the *AWARD WINNING* R80mm bullet. Once you do that you could easily disguise this little toy as just about anything. A pencil topper, an eraser, you name it.

Like I mentioned in the last section, the Ass-Berries Raspberry includes an AWARD WINNING RO-80mm bullet vibe. This particulate bullet is sold in several colors when purchased alone. However, the Ass-Berries Raspberry comes with a *purple* bullet with a silver base. This one is not available for purchase by itself, and is no longer available on EdenFantasys. However, the RO-120mm is sold on EdenFantasys. The R80mm looks exactly like a real bullet with it's pointed tip. So wear your seatbelt because you are in for one helluva explosive ride. This bullet, no doubt, deserved the award of “Best Product of the Year” in 2008 at the Erotic Trade Only Awards (United Kingdom).

The bullet itself is very powerful by itself and easily hits a 4-5. The bullet and the Ass-Berries Raspberry put together hit a 4 max (The IntraMed cushions some of the vibration). Nonetheless, it's one of those anal toys that just blows you out of the ballpark with it's power.

The toy is easy to use. Make sure the bullet is inserted completely (it comes inserted already, so this shouldn't be an issue unless you were nosy like me and removed it). Once your bullet is completely inserted, simply push the button on the end of the bullet and insert that berry! NOTE: Be sure to press the button on the bullet BEFORE inserting the Ass-Berry. Trying to press the button could result in accidentally pushing the Ass-Berry inside due to it's poorly-flared base.

The only thing not-so-great about this toy is that the base isn't flared enough. I strongly advise caution when using this anal toy. Don't use so much lubricant that it may slip in without you knowing, and don't push it in too far. If you do accidentally push this toy in too far, do not panic. Simply use your PC Muscles and try to "poop" it out. It sounds gross, but it's a life saver. If your toy isn't coming out after about half an hour, a trip to the emergency room is needed. DO NOT try to stick your hands, or partner's hands inside of yourself to retrieve it. This can result in pushing the toy in even further.

Also NOTE: This did NOT happen to me. My Ass-Berry did not even remotely slip inside of myself, but you also need to know that I have a lot more experience with anal toys. You have to know just the right amount of lubricant to use with this toy (no more than a dime's size) and I recommend Water-based lubricants. They wont be as slippery and will reduce the risk of this toy slipping in. Stay relaxed during play so you don't pull the toy in with your PC muscles on accident.

This material is as easy to care for as Silicone. You can wash it with warm water and anti-bacterial soap or use a 10%bleach/90%water solution to wipe down soak the toy in. I don't recommend soaking it for too long in the bleach solution. 5 minutes will do the trick. If you lack both of those cleaning materials, pick up some toy cleaner or some Eden Toy & Body Wipes.

This toy is not porous, and only reacts with oil. So you can store it pretty much anywhere you'd like. I wouldn't recommend storing it near lubricants, especially those made of oil, as they could spill and leak onto the toy. Maybe grab an Eden Toy Pouch or a little satin toy bag to store it in. It's totally up to you. This toy does come with a plastic box, and if you can stand the word "Ass-Berries" being on the cover, it makes a great box for storage.

NOTE: Remember to remove the LR1 1.5 volt battery from your bullet before storing. The battery IS INCLUDED, so you don't need to stock up immediately but I recommend buying a few for when the toy runs out of juice. If you store your toys with the battery inside it could accidentally turn on if it fell hard enough, and over time it can age the toy and drain the battery.

The Ass-Berries Raspberry comes packaged in a hexagonal plastic case. This case is perfect for storage if you can look aside from the giant "Ass-Berries" printed on the box. Nonetheless, you can remove the top of the plastic box and keep only the purple plastic bottom. You can easily fit the Ass-Berry into the hole and store it standing up. Unfortunately no instructions are included. Rocks-Off is usually VERY good with including instructions on batteries, usage, and cleaning, but they failed at doing so with the Ass-Berries. This is another reason why it's great to read reviews on EdenFantasys.com. It would make a good gift package, I just recommend wrapping it up first.

The entire package is made from plastic, so it is fully recyclable. Rocks-Off is big on recycling as far as I can tell with their packaging and the product material alone. So this package is friendly to the earth and can be disposed of right in your recycling bin.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASEEEEE buy yourself a few other anal toys along with this one if it is your first time buying an anal toy. You really don't want to risk hurting yourself because it is possible with ANY anal toy. Look around Eden and see what you can find that is most safe for you as a beginner. Purchase the two and get to know your body with the other anal toy first before you move on to working with the Ass-Berries Raspberry. It is a wonderful toy, but it does take some experience to be able to use it safely.

My personal experience with this toy was absolutely wonderful. I loved the intensity of the toy (4 vrooms) and I loved that the Ass-Berries Raspberry was so quiet (2 bees in your hand, 1 bees inserted). For an anal toy, you definitely want to drop some cash on a toy like this simply because it's hard to find others with similar power that wont cost you over $80.

It's the perfect anal toy for someone living at home with the parents/family, and very ideal for those living on campus with nosy roommates or house mothers. It's quiet enough not to be heard outside of your door with the covers over your hand or with the bathroom door closed, and quiet enough that you could walk around with it inside of you and not have anyone know. (Just don't sit down!)

The noduled/nubby texture is enough to provide intense yet not overpowering stimulation. So as far as texture goes, it's perfect for just about anyone. I, myself, sometimes have trouble with texture. I have IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and there are days when I can't take any texture at all. This toy has yet to be overpowerful for me. I simply slide it in, turn it on, and let the sensations do their job.

One thing I love the most is that this toy doesn't get too deep inside of you. 2.25 inches is not at all overbearing. Some toys are just too long for me, and make me feel uncomfortable. You don't get that with the Ass-Berries Raspberry. It's the perfect size for anyone. Just make sure you are aquainted with your ass before using it.

My husband's Ass-Berries Blackberry is on the way, so stay tuned for a review on that product as well! By the way - it makes a PERFECT couple's gift for a honeymoon, anniversary, etc. You can buy the Blackberry for the male and the Raspberry for the female (or whatever combination you find best).
