Kinda smitten with the Smitten Kitten
Overall, I think the kit would be a good one for travel or to try it out. The bullet was not a bad purchase. The tickler was my favorite piece in the kit and I still use it regularly. This would not be a good kit for someone looking for something that will stand up to regular use though.

Pros
I love that it was all contained into a small, easy to transport container.
Cons
Would not hold up to regular use. Satin ties were not really effective.
I got this kit for a romantic birthday weekend away. I wanted something small, that was easy to travel with but could still bring some fun into our weekend. And it worked well for that purpose. It comes packed in a small box, about 12in x3in x2in, which was great for tossing in my bag and taking with me. Don't expect to get it back into the box as neatly though. Once its out it is out for good!
The kit came with four separate items: a bullet, a satin tie, a satin blindfold, and a tickler.
The Bullet: For a bullet that came in a kit with other items, I initially didn't really have that high of expectations. But it exceeded the low expectations that I did have. It was quite powerful. I would have preferred to have variable speed and intensity settings, but that one setting that it does have gets the job done. It is perfect for some nipple play or for clitoral stimulation.
It is not the quietest bullet I have used, but used behind a door you would not hear it at all.
I have two complaints about the bullet though. One is that it seemed to get heated pretty warmly. after it had been turned on for a few minutes, it was noticeable warmer to the touch. It never got so warm that I was really concerned about it overheating, but it was warm enough that I took note and paid attention to it. The other complaint that I have is that the included batteries seemed to die very quickly. Luckily I came prepared with backups!
For cleaning, I personally prefer to use pre-moistened wipes. I find them to be convenient, since you can keep them right in the bedroom, and more private since you don't have to carry your toys outside the bedroom to wash them. The bullet does have a rubber ring to help seal the battery, but since it was not advertised as water-proof I would be wary of completely submerging it under water.
The Satin Tie: Firstly, any time that needs to come with instructions for use might be too complicated! The tie itself is a long piece of satin, about 30in long, that has a loop on each end. You are able to put the loops though each other to make a set of cuffs. Not too hard to figure out, but it can interrupt the flow. The satin is a good material for a playful kit like this, since it is soft and smooth. It gives a gentler feeling than something like leather would. The ties seem to be well made, and should hold up to gentle play. Don't tug at them though, or the stitching may come undone.
The Satin Blindfold: The blindfold is made of the same satin material as the tie, which gives the kit a nice look. Everything complements each other very well. The blindfold is pretty much your standard blindfold. It served its purpose of covering the eyes very well. It does a decent job of keeping out the light when it is secured but is rather easy to squirm your way out from underneath it, being made from a silky, satiny material. But keep in mind that the kit is not meant for heavy or intense play, rather for light bondage play or for experimenting and trying it out. I did like that the ties for the blindfold were rather long, so they should work well for everyone.
The Ticker: I was surprised with the quality of the tickler. There was no shedding of feathers at all. The handle for the tickler is only about 5in long, so it is great for times you want to get close and intimate with the one you are tickling. This is the one piece of this kit that I still use on a regular basis.
Overall I think this would be a good kit for beginners to get a feel for some light bondage play. More experienced users may find that the kit is not up to the level that they desire. It will not hold up to a lot of pulling on the restraints, but will be enough to learn if it is something that you like. The kit is a great value to get multiple products at once, in an easy to use format.
