Pure stimulation. This one has very strong vibrations, with nowhere near as much noise as you might think it would make. I found that swapping between the four vibrational patterns was very rewarding. Anyone who enjoys anal play is going to like this one.

I found no smell at all with the toy, and it is smooth to the touch. The toy itself has a slight plushness to it, but you can feel the firmness beneath easily enough. There wasn't taste to it either, which was nice.

Overall the design works really well for anal play. The shape of it makes it easy to insert, and you can hook your fingers around the suction cup at the base in order to pull it out. One thing I didn't particularly like about the Charmer is the fact that the power button is located on the side of the toy. This means you have to touch it after it has been inside you. Some people might be squicked by this, and I would have preferred to see the power button on the base of the item instead.

The size of the toy makes it ideal for just about anyone.

I was rather surprised by the power of the vibrations. The toy certainly puts out a lot of them, despite a somewhat limited number of patterns. The suction cup worked well, though the only use I see for that would be the shower wall, in order to thrust onto the toy. But it's not really made for thrusting, so that is a limited pleasure at best.

For storage, nothing works better than the box it came in. Personally, I ditch the plastic that comes in the box and just leave the toy to rattle free in it. Charging the toy is as easy as sticking the plug in at the base, near the center of the suction cup. The cleaning can be done with a toy cleaner, warm water, and a mild soap. Do not immerse it in water, however, just to be safe.

My preference for cleaning it was to hold it at the suction cup and pour hot water over the insertable part of the toy, keeping the base of the suction cup and the charge port away from the water. Since it is silicone, you need to use only water-based lubes with it.
